Manufacturer description

This Composite coach in LMS Crimson is a standard design of coach that has been used broadly across UK railways making it an ideal inclusion on a model railway layout. This coach is the perfect running partner for the LMS Brake Third Coach.

Young or old, keen modeller or just a beginner, the Hornby RailRoad range answers the needs of many and is a wonderful complement to the variety of locomotives, rolling stock, track, buildings and accessories that can be found in the current Hornby catalogue. Devoid of easily damaged detail parts, the suitably livered RailRoad locomotives are fitted with efficient drive mechanisms and have pickups on all drive wheels ensuring smooth running. All the RailRoad models are fitted with the standard Hornby hook and bar type couplings and will therefore easily couple to those locomotives and rolling stock in both the standard Hornby and Thomas & Friends ranges.

With this in mind, it is easy to see that those models that make up the Hornby RailRoad range are a simple and cost-effective way of adding to a train set, providing a suitable and appropriate stepping stone into the varied and fascinating world of model railways. The introductory range offers a selection of individual locomotives, rolling stock and accessories and an assortment of train and wagon packs ideally suited for either train set rolling stock enhancements or for those who wish to experiment and try their hands at developing their modelling techniques!
