Hornby Train Sets 2009
(also Bachmann and Graham Farish Train Sets)

We carry one of the widest selections of model train sets in the United Kingdom

All Hornby Train Sets include track, controller, transformer, trakmat (excluding the "Boxed Set" series) and train.   We do not consider any Hornby Train Set to be suitable for under 5's.  We recommend ages 8+ as a minimum for all large Steam locomotive Hornby Train Sets (Flying Scotsman, Harry Potter etc) as they are fiddly to fit onto the track.  All suggested layouts are ideally nailed down onto a 6 foot by 4 foot board - we recommend half inch Chipboard.  Bachmann sets are basically the same as their Hornby equivalents but do not include the Trakmat - the track, controllers, trains and so on are completely Hornby compatible!

Hornby & Bachmann OO Gauge Train Sets - Analogue (Standard) Sets Our  Price
A word about BACHMANN:  Bachmann sets are completely track, power supply and coupling compatible with Hornby sets, you can mix the two brands of track (in fact, under some lights you can even see the word HORNBY on the back of the Bachmann track!) and the locos/wagons on the Bachmann sets are all full detail.  As a result these sets are excellent value when compared with the equivalent Hornby, so make just as good a starter set and are ideal to add to an existing Hornby layout.

A small starter set with loco and three wagons.  This set has a new simple track mat that can be expanded using the new style track packs R8221 to R8224.  As standard, the track in this set is an oval using Radius 3 track.

Hornby R1121 Devon Flyer £59
The romance of the railways in Britain was at its best when hundreds of minor cross country lines traversed the counties of Britain. In those days drivers on these rural routes such as those found in Devon would encounter unscheduled stops along the line picking up or dropping of goods as they went from village to village. These trains were often subjects of local humour and given nicknames similar to the Devon Flyer! This set includes a Hornby Midi TrakMat and an oval of track which can be enlarged to a simple but effective layout with the addition of Hornby Track and Accessory Packs.

Hornby R1069 Old Smoky £59
It can be argued that in the 1920s and 30s the British railways network was in its heyday. Small locomotives were used with some of the railway companies more mature rolling stock on small branch lines and because of their age and in some cases dishevelled appearance, it is more than likely that at least one of these trains would have been nick named “Old Smoky”! The track circuit can be extended to fit the Midi Mat included with the addition of Hornby Track and Accessory Packs.  Good value for a passenger set with two full size coaches.

DIGITAL Hornby & Bachmann OO Gauge Train Sets Our  Price
Digital sets allow you to run multiple locos at the same time on the same track, all from one controller.  The locos receive a signal from the controller (via the track) which tells them what speed to move at and in what direction.  The result of this is that you can run multiple locos at different speeds on the same rail!

Bachmann and Hornby systems both adhere to the DCC standard - this means that the Bachmann controller will run trains fitted with Hornby DCC chips and vice-versa.  Track is identical in both makes of sets.  The Bachmann controller is slightly simpler in operation as it only allows for 9 locos to be used at any one time (the Hornby one allows for many more - although how many you'd actually want to use is open to debate!
 IMPORTANT BEFORE PURCHASE: Digital sets require digital locos - standard locos or those marked "DCC ready" are not able to run until a chip has been fitted.  On "DCC Ready" locos, it's a case of plugging the chip in, on others you have to modify the loco and solder the chip in.  Chips from both brands (interchangeable) are under £10.  Chip stock is at the end of our Power and Control page
30-041 Bachmann Digital Starter Set £79
This set is manufactured by Bachmann.  The track, train and controller are 100% compatible with the Hornby equivalents. 
This is an interesting new system which allows two trains to run simultaneously at different speeds on the same track!  The set includes a digital controller and two complete small freight trains with wagons etc.  Most DCC ready locos can be fitted with chips enabling them to run with this new system and further controllers are available if required. 
The track is identical to the Starter Oval plus extension R8010 Track Pack A to provide a siding. Extend the layout with extra R8016 Track Packs B and on (or loose track) as time goes by.

Additional coaches are available so that a full train can be created. The TrakMat included can by adding Hornby Track and Accessory Packs be built up in stages into a fully functioning model railway layout. And with the addition of more locomotives and rolling stock the Hornby DCC unit really does make controlling the trains on all parts of the track incredibly straightforward.
NOTE: This is Hornby's new Digital System which allows more control to the loco, and allows multiple locos to run at the same time on the same line of track.  Standard locos must be converted with a chip before using them on this set.  Uses the "Thomas" extension packs.
