Model details

Prototype information

Accurascale Granville Manor is a model of GWR Green Manor Class 4‑6‑0 steam locomotive, number 7818. It represents the Big Four era of British railways and is supplied with the manufacturer part number ACC2500‑7818. The locomotive is finished in authentic GWR green livery and includes fully sprung metal buffers, factory‑installed pipework and high‑fidelity dummy screw couplings, with optional early tapered, tapered or straight buffer housings where appropriate. An optional overhead warning plate bracket is available for later British Rail examples.

The tender is fitted with kinetic NEM coupler mounts at the correct height, mini‑tension‑lock couplers and a DCC decoder socket on the roof, which can be accessed via a lift‑out section secured by magnets. Two lift‑out options are offered: an empty tender or a simulated coal load.

Electronic features include a high‑quality three‑pole motor with flywheel, low starting voltage and smooth power delivery. The model is DCC ready, with a provision for an 18‑pin MTC socket in the tender, and optional factory‑installed DCC sound. Sound‑equipped models have a speaker in the smokebox, dual speakers in the tender, a PowerPack capacitor bank for uninterrupted power and sound, a flickering firebox light synchronised with the sound, and electrical pickup from all tender and locomotive driving wheels.

Traction details comprise a minimum operating radius of 438 mm (second‑radius set‑track), a die‑cast metal chassis, running plate and body with a sprung centre driving axle, and a metal helical gearbox for maximum performance at low speeds. The gearing enables a scale top speed of 90 mph (145 km/h). Wheels are fitted with RP25‑110 profile in OO gauge.
