Hornby Treinset - R1255M Flying Scotsman - OO Gauge Analoge Locomotieven - Elektrische Trein Bouwset - Modelbouwset voor stoommotor, schaal 1:76

I really like the train. Hornby is, in my opinion, a cut above Bachmann in terms of the biggest producers of HO model trains. The engine is heavy, solid, and nicely detailed given the price. The cars are just OK, although, again, at this price point they're as good or better than I would have expected.The track is actually pretty good -- better than the steel Bachmann track in my opinion, although it looks a roadbed.The controller isn't very impressive. It feels flimsy and insubstantial, although it worked. I didn't need the controller so only tested it before putting it away.My only complaint is that I first tried ordering Used, and it came with the front bogie/truck detached and lacking the hardware to attach it. So I sent that back and bought new, and it came with the front bogie/truck detached. As it turns out, it did have the hardware needed to attach it, but since the only schematic I could find online showed it with different hardware, I again thought it was missing hardware and shipped it back for a replacement. And the replacement arrived with the front bogie/truck detached. This time I reached out for help and found both the folks in the Hornby forums as well as Hornby support staff to be very friendly and helpful. With a pointer to the right schematic, I finally got the train up and running.It seems odd that I got multiple locomotives with the front bogie detached. And it's frustrating that the Hornby website is organized poorly, making it extremely difficult to find schematics. I would take off a point for that, but then I'd give back that point simply because the community as well as company support are great.

Vale lo que cuesta, Hornby tiene mejor calidad que otras marcas a las que tenemos acceso en Latam; las vías que son a mi gusto mejores que las E-Z Track (otras marcas) tienen mejor sensación al tacto y el color simulando latón se ve bastante bien, los terminados de pintura del livery son bastante buenos y satinados. Todo se percibe de calidad incluso me sorprendió el Control que aunque es de plástico y los accesorios. Es un set de iniciación sobretodo lo recomiendo si tienen interés en empezar con el Hobby o si prefieren invertir en una marca de UK. Como nota, es un modelo de la clase Railroad de Hornby que en teoría es para un uso más constante por lo que no tiene tantos detalles como remaches o detalles de tubería e ingenierías, pero de verdad es hermosa la máquina. Otro punto a considerar son las dimensiones del circuito de vía que son mayores a las que uno está acostumbrado con marcas americanas; un plus es el cambio de vía y el punto muerto.

Absolutely brilliant straight out of box.

When on special this is excellent value to start up hobby with children. Well done Amazon.

Great price and great delivery. Always wanted the Flying Scotsman as a child! Great product.
