  1. Is it possible to find out what the large numbers printed on the tops of the containers will be in each twin pack please? This will help me when deciding which packs to order! Thanks!
  2. Probably a deliberate move not to re-use or affiliate the old Triang TT name to avoid confusion as this really isn't the same scale and there's no compatibility back and forth.
  3. It's not that odd a decision when you realise that this is the first time they can sell British outline models directly into overseas market without being out of scale - TT is widely used and supported overseas and now people can mix and match British and continental models on the same layout without any scale problems. TT:120 fits neatly between HO and European N scales. I really do think this will be successful for Hornby, as well as all the other manufacturers, on the basis that the market is already huge, and for the as yet very niche domestic market, a further selling point is that this opens up the same opportunities for us too - get a Hornby TT trainset and bolster it with that European rolling stock or loco you've always fancied but didn't want it to look silly next your 00 gauge stuff. As for online only, why not, literally everything else is available online from groceries to cars, people buy far more expensive and considered purchases than some toy trains all the time based on online only and a few well placed Instagram adverts, check some youtube reviews and click "Buy It Now".
