ACCURASCALE HYA AND IIA PRODUCTION NEARS COMPLETION

PRODUCTION of the brand-new Accurascale ‘OO' gauge HYA and

IIA bogie hopper wagons, including the shortened aggregate version, is progressing well, with completion expected within the next couple of weeks. Delivery is anticipated for the third quarter of 2021, all being well with shipping and acceptance of the new models.

They remain available for preordering, but in limited quantities, for £74.95 per pair. Once sold out, no more can be added to this first batch because the production number for each livery and number combination has been settled upon. www.accurascale.co.uk.

Despite their plain black and silver finish, the legends add character to the HYA wagons. The GB Railfreight/Touax/Cemex version is one of three cut-down HYA models being offered by Accurascale as twin packs with individual running numbers.

The VTG/Tarmac/GBRf version of the cut-down HYA as used on aggregate traffic (see also p.39).
