2007 Catalogue R8136 by Hornby from £7.99

Edition 53 of the Hornby Catalogue. Colour catalogue of the complete 00 gauge Hornby model railways for 2007.

When does a train set turn into a model railway?
Is it when the first piece of extra track is purchased or when the all important signal box is added to the set?
Whenever and whatever that moment is, is when something that was probably bought as a toy starts to become a model and the start of a great adventure that can literally become a life times passion.
Starting with a train set is the first exciting step that most people take when they begin this fascinating journey and as you turn the pages of this catalogue you will find all manner of train sets to suit a whole range of budgets. All the sets in the Hornby range can be extended in simple and straightforward stages with the addition of the Hornby track and accessories packs, from the humble Local Freight to the large digitally controlled GWR Western Pullman Set, there really is very little limit to what can be done.
Superb locomotives are pictured, some with headlights, some fitted with digital decoders so that they can be used on a digital layout straight out of the box and there are many which are fairly bristling with detail. Similarly, there are those locomotives such as "Smokey Joe" which are specifically intended for the younger enthusiasts. With the continued turning of the pages finely detailed wagons and coaches will be revealed. There are the exquisite Pullmans that have table lights that actually illuminate, while others like the LNER Teak Buffet Car have interior detail that can virtually leave the viewer with nothing else but amazed awe!
The unique and miniature world of Skaledale will bring life and realism to any layout and for many a strategically placed Engine Shed, Water Tower or just a humble Skaledale cottage can make all the difference. For proof of this attributed realism you will notice as you peruse the pages, photographs of actual locomotives in operation. Taking these pictures as inspiration and using Hornby locomotives and Skaledale buildings as the main focus, model dioramas have been created to mirror as closely as possible the actual photograph. Proof positive if any were needed of the quality and attention to detail that the Hornby models have to offer.

So when does a train set turn into a model railway? The answer to that question is now at your fingertips. Turn the pages, examine the contents and then you decide.
