Its a pity this duplication has happened whether deliberate or not, however I'll wait to see what the final models look like, from what I have seen to date the Hattons coaches appear more detailed than Hornby's and at a similar price so I'll stick with my order. The increased options for mixing & matching I guess will partly be determined by how the liveries match up but I imagine in real life at the turn of the 20th century there was probably a fair degree of variation in this.
