only, meaning that products will be available to purchase via its website only, rather than being available in model shops. A discount of 15% is offered on some products to members of their TT club.

Vanguard 5374 Posted October 10, 2022 Share Posted October 10, 2022 Great to see Hornby following Peco, Gaugemaster and Heljan providing for TT. Makes me wonder now if other companies are going to watch it develop before having a go themselves. 2 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

bmthtrains - David Posted October 10, 2022 Share Posted October 10, 2022 That’s a huge investment from Hornby - a big range of locos and rolling stock all due within a few months, and very reasonably priced. Interesting it’s all web exclusive though - hard to develop the scale of the biggest range won’t be in the shops… David 2 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pre Grouping fan Posted October 10, 2022 Share Posted October 10, 2022 Weird start to the video. Looking at the website it's a pretty significant/large range they're starting with. Wasn't expecting some if the big 4 offerings. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Premium John M Upton Posted October 10, 2022 RMweb Premium Share Posted October 10, 2022 Didn't bother with the video, went straight to the product page on Hornby's site https://uk.Hornby.com/catalogue/hornbytt120/hornbytt120-range?encoded=Tc5BC4IwFAfwr-LJm9BEog4jKKRDh4SMDiLjOZeO1iZvW-i3T4psx__vvf_j7RTorgDX096gbqbEP-K7VE6grY7gO1HTJT-lZgNKPtvqjzD-MCXrhW-isdKJKB-58la-wjsFiuSMrcDA9gi6DfKFgwo711OUI4TPzPvgDE7sK6yZ6mpA03ruGDdKCe6k0TUty-iwxHiATjDZUpKSLNvG1qCbm3TzGVDyBg That is a hell of a lot of stuff, hundreds of new tooling.

eldomtom2 Posted October 10, 2022 Share Posted October 10, 2022 I note that despite having pretty much the entirety of the British railway landscape to choose from, Hornby have chosen to duplicate every item of stock announced by other manufacturers.

RMweb Premium nightstar.train Posted October 10, 2022 RMweb Premium Share Posted October 10, 2022 Wow, Hornby have certainly jumped into this with both feet. Having a short peruse of the website I see: Engines LNER A1/A3 LNER A4 LMS Princess Coronation Class 08 Class 50 Class 66 Class 43 HST Coaches LMS 57ft stock Mk1 Mk2 Mk3 A tremendous range, they certainly have committed. Now to see if the general public will also commit, or if this will be a very expensive mistake for Hornby. 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Premium cornelius Posted October 10, 2022 RMweb Premium Share Posted October 10, 2022 Go hard or go home I guess. Makes sense in a way, clear of (most) competition, also appears to be only available from Hornby so further move to a direct sales model. 5 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Gold Popular Post TomE Posted October 10, 2022 RMweb Gold Popular Post Share Posted October 10, 2022 My overarching question is, why.... Why waste time, effort, and more importantly in Hornby's case, money, on a scale that has almost zero industry support (even with other recent announcements it's still practically nothing relatively speaking) Why not invest in a scale that already has a user base, i.e. N Gauge, where people will be able to buy models and run them on existing layouts with existing stock. Hornby have clearly decided TT is going to be the alter on which they sacrifice themselves. It all seems pretty bonkers to me.

They have gone very much in the spirit of old TT - trains running around in circles so a big focus on big engines and passenger trains. The freight is interesting as nothing here (yet) to pull it, so tank engines probably somewhere in the future. 4 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can't compete in OO, you can only retool big locos so many times, N too small for a big entry, this is prime for Hornby and for once I agree there is heritage for the company. 3 8 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
phil gollin Posted October 10, 2022 Share Posted October 10, 2022 (edited) . Nothing Southern Region ! Very disappointing. I will leave any sensible comment until I see how the smaller tank engines work on the track. SK made such a thing of small layouts, even along window sills (!) means that tank engines will be important. Good luck to Hornby, but I will wait. P.S. SK seems to think that Hornby will run out of new OO subjects in the next 7 years, or so ! I have lots of suggestions just from the Southern. Sad to see such an attitude. .

woodenhead Posted October 10, 2022 Share Posted October 10, 2022 I assume he said club members get a 15% discount automatically and not 50% (couldn't be sure what he said).

Steamport Southport Posted October 10, 2022 Share Posted October 10, 2022 Simon Cola? Just love subtitles... So nothing GWR to go with the PECO GWR buildings? A bit pointless unless someone makes GWR loco and rolling stock to go with them! Jason 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Premium Legend Posted October 10, 2022 RMweb Premium Share Posted October 10, 2022 Ahh hah. Only available on line. From Hornby. I see their cunning plan. Much more profitable by cutting out the retailer. 3 7 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was interesting that at the start of that video Simon basically admitted this, 'we're still making the same models, just with more bells and whistles'. Not sure how that will chime with him telling every to buy another 5 versions of the Flying Scotsman they are undoubtedly going to release in the next year. 2 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

woodenhead Posted October 10, 2022 Share Posted October 10, 2022 But at least they have used a recognised standard TT coupling and not gone bespoke. 4 3 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
