New Accy Countess/The Earl. Exact price to be advised. Manual version approx £990, Radio Control version approx £1282. This cannot be fixed yet due to movements in the £ against the $.

You've gotta be kidding, if they keep that manual for around a grand that's a total bargain. Saw it in the flesh and it was totally off this country

Looks nice.
But these locos have been made before. Was it by Pearse?
Now if some one would do one of Dougal then I'd be very interested.

Very probably - seeing as Accucraft UK were formed by Ian and Sandy Pearse. Seems like alot of the current range bear a very close resemblance to some of the Pearse locos.

Superb loco at a very reasonable price. However it doesn't really fit in with the direction in which I am moving.
