Manufacturer description
A masterpiece of British steam engineering reimagined for the modern railway enthusiast. This premium OO gauge train set captures the elegance and power of the legendary A4 Class locomotive, complete with authentic sound, illuminated headlamps and a realistic steam generator.
Paired with three exquisitely detailed Pullman coaches featuring interior lighting and glowing table lamps, the set evokes the golden age of luxury rail travel. A double-circuit track layout with siding gives you room to expand, while mains power and Bluetooth control via the free Hornby HM7000 app delivers smooth, intuitive operation from your smartphone or tablet.
This is a statement set for those who value heritage, detail and cutting-edge control.
Please Note: This set requires the use of the HM7000 free to download APP for control.
