Hornby S&DR 200th Anniversary 0-4-0 Locomotion No1 1925

Product Code: R30388

(Pre-Order Due May 2025)

Production Details:

‘Locomotion No. 1’ earned its place in history as the world’s first steam locomotive to haul a passenger train on a public railway, when it ‘opened’ the Stockton & Darlington Railway in 1825. Its importance was recognised at an early stage, and it became one of the first locomotives to be preserved when it was rescued from scrap in 1856 by Joseph Pease and his family. It was steamed again for the S&DR’s Golden Jubilee in 1875, but for most of the time between 1892 and 1975, ‘Locomotion No. 1’ was on static display at Darlington Bank Top station. During 1924, however, it received a full cosmetic restoration in readiness for the centenary celebrations of the S&DR in 1925 and, during the celebratory cavalcade, it hauled ten replica chaldron waggons and the ‘company coach’ propelled by a petrol engine hidden in a specially built tender. This model comes fitted with a Next 18 pin socket but due to the locomotives size limitations sadly it cannot take a HM7000 Next 18 pin decoder. Features: DCC Status: DCC Ready Next 18 pin socket, Operator: S&DR, Designer: GEC-Alsthom, Wheel Configuration: 0-4-0, Livery: Brown, Minimum Curve (mm): Radius 1, Motor: 3 Pole.

Hornby GWR - Saint Class - 2999 'Lady of Legend'

Product Code: R30404

(Pre-Order Due December 2025)

The ‘Hall’ was a direct development of the ‘Saint’, No. 2925 Saint Martin being used as its prototype in 1924 by Charles B. Collett, Churchward’s successor as Chief Mechanical Engineer at the GWR. Work on the conversion finally got underway in 1995 and, in April 2019, No. 2999 Lady of Legend made its first moves in steam at Didcot Railway Centre.

Hornby BR Stanier 5MT Black 5 44748 Late Caprotti

Product Code: R30389

(Pre-Order Due May 2025)

Production Details:

Although the LMS ‘Black Five’ was a huge success, Stanier’s successor George Ivatt made a number of experimental modifications which resulted in some unusual variants from 1947 onward. No. 44748 was the first of a batch of 20 built with Caprotti valve gear at Crewe Works. Under this arrangement, the locomotive’s valve gear was driven by a single shaft between the frames, connected to the locomotive’s leading axle with a bevel gear. The modifications resulted in an unusual appearance, with bulbous steam pipes, lower running plates with wheel splashers and a modified cab.

Hornby Birth of the Railways 200th Anniversary Train Pack - Locomotion Rocket Lion

Product Code: R30445

(Pre-Order Due July 2025)

Production Details:

Representing the formative years of steam-powered railways, these three locomotives were built between 1825 and 1838. The first is ‘Locomotion No. 1’, designed by George and Robert Stephenson. It was built at their factory in Newcastle for the opening of the Stockton & Darlington Railway, where it became the first to pull a passenger train on a public railway/ This year, 2025, marks the 200th anniversary.

With the experience they gained, Robert Stephenson & Co. entered a design for the 1829 Rainhill Trials, held to find suitable motive power for the Liverpool & Manchester Railway. Their entry, ‘Rocket’, was the clear winner and formed the basis for locomotive design on the L&MR, which opened the following year. By 1938, locomotive design had already moved on, and 0-4-2 No. 57 ‘Lion’, was one of a pair of ‘luggage’ locomotives built to a Stephenson patent by Todd, Kitson & Laird of Leeds, also for the L&MR.
Please note:
● Locomotion No.1 comes fitted with a Next 18 pin socket, but due to the locomotives size limitations sadly it cannot take a HM7000 Next 18 pin decoder.
● The 'Rocket' locomotive comes fitted with a 6 pin socket.
● The 'Lion' locomotive comes fitted with a Next 18 socket (NEM 662).

Product Code: R60292

(Pre-Order Due 2025)

Production Details:

Hornby BP Shell 14t Tanker 5066. The tank wagon was the main method of transporting liquid cargo in the early days of the railway. Instead of loading liquids into drums or barrels and then having to load these on and off closed or open vans at each side of a journey, the tank wagon could be filled with the fluid of choice of the operator and then emptied at the other end. This also increased the carrying capacity of each wagon, as a wagon with a 12-tonne weight limit could carry more fluid if it did not have to factor in the weight of many barrels on top of their contents. This type of tank wagon was more commonly seen hauling hazardous liquid chemicals, with different designs for milk and other such cargo.

Product Code: R60309

(Pre-Order Due September 2025)

Production Details:

Hornby RailRoad MGR Hopper with Canopy 356928. The hopper wagon is decorated in the style of Railfreight’s coal sector. The hopper body is made of unpainted metal and has a black underframe, which was standard across the eras, and it has the yellow framework that BR Railfreight introduced in 1987. The wagon is numbered 358764. When originally designed in 1964, some hopper wagons intended for Merry-go-Round (MGR) trains were given an extension to their tops, known as a canopy or top skirt, which allowed their carrying capacity to be increased to 32 tonnes, using the full 45 tonnes gross laden weight allowed for a two-axle wagon. There were three basic types ‘HBA’, ‘HCA’ and ‘HFA’. However, those hoppers fitted with canopies were too high to be used under the majority of colliery screens and they were confined mainly to Scotland until the canopies were eventually removed.

Hornby BR Kitchen and Buttery Car & Composite Restaurant - White Horse 7833 Twin Pack

Product Code: R40470

(Pre-Order Due December 2025)

Production Details:

Hornby BR Kitchen and Buttery Car & Composite Restaurant - White Horse 7833 Twin Pack. In 1949, two pairs of carriages were put into service on BR Southern Region to provide catering facilities with a difference. The idea came from Oliver Bulleid, the former Southern Railway’s Chief Mechanical Engineer, who had a track record of thinking ‘outside the box’ with his unusual air-smoothed ‘Pacifics’, double-deck carriages and cabbed ‘Leader’ locomotives. Each pair consisted of a Composite Dining Car and a ‘Tavern Coach’. These were allocated to the ‘Atlantic Coast Express’ and provided thirsty commuters with a pub-on-wheels for their homeward journey. Internally, each ‘tavern’ was decorated to mimic an olde English pub, with tiled floor, whitewashed walls, ‘oak’ beams and high-backed settles, all illuminated by ‘lanterns’. Externally, the paintwork was divided horizontally, in carmine and cream, but the lower section lined out to represent brickwork. The upper section had ‘half-timber’ relief and a painted pub sign, while the small windows had old-style leaded panes. The dining cars were unpopular and were quickly re-fitted in 1950, at which point the mock brickwork on the ‘taverns’ was repainted in plain carmine. They lasted in service in their pairs until late 1959 but were repainted in unlined BR(SR) green in 1957. Similar pairs of ‘Tavern Cars’ operated on other BR regions. Features: Gauge: OO, Operator: BR, Designer: Bulleid, Minimum radius: 2nd, Coupling Type: NEM Tension Lock.

Hornby BR Gresley Corridor Crimson and cream 1st class E10126E

Product Code: R40457

(Pre-Order Due September 2025)

Production Details:

Hornby BR Gresley Corridor Crimson and cream 1st class E10126E. Gresley’s standard LNER 61ft 6in coaches were solidly built, and despite being a design inherited from the GNR in 1923 and built until 1942, many of them lasted in service until 1965, working alongside BR Mk1 coaches, which they were compatible with. The varnished teak finish was vulnerable to extremes of weather and required constant maintenance to stop them from looking tatty with peeled varnish and cracked panels.

Hornby BR Gresley Corridor Crimson and cream 3rd class E11010E

Product Code: R40458

(Pre-Order Due September 2025)

Production Details:

Hornby BR Gresley Corridor Crimson and cream 3rd class E11010E. Gresley’s standard LNER 61ft 6in coaches were solidly built, and despite being a design inherited from the GNR in 1923 and built until 1942, many of them lasted in service until 1965, working alongside BR Mk1 coaches, which they were compatible with. The varnished teak finish was vulnerable to extremes of weather and required constant maintenance to stop them from looking tatty with peeled varnish and cracked panels. Because of this, BR painted the wooden panels crimson and cream after nationalisation, with all-over crimson for the full brake vehicles.

Production Details:

Hornby BR Maunsell Composite class S5665 Set 222. When the Southern Railway was formed in 1923, it continued to build coach designs inherited from the main three constituent companies. Richard Maunsell introduced the SR’s first ‘standard’ coaches, building over 1,200 of them. These were formed into 139 sets, as it was the SR’s practice to keep coaches together for long periods of time, with a set number at each end. These coaches are the later 59ft type built from 1934 with flush sides, constructed with steel panels over a wooden framework. They were painted olive green in early SR days and, from 1939, in Bulleid’s malachite green, before most received the standard BR crimson and cream following nationalisation from 1949.

Product Code: R40465

(Pre-Order Due October 2025)

Production Details:

Hornby GWR Collet Coaches Corridor Brake Third LH 5040. Charles B. Collett developed a new range of standard coaches from 1922 to coincide with the reintroduction of the chocolate and cream livery onto the company’s network. These covered a wide variety of types, but the most common type introduced between 1925 and 1929 was the ‘bow-ended’ corridor coach, of which several hundred were built at Swindon. The idea of the ‘bow ends’ was to reduce the length of the corridor connections between carriages following complaints from nervous passengers about walking across them when the train was travelling at speed. They went on to form the backbone of main line sets for 20 years.

Production Details:

Hornby BR Collet Coaches Corridor Brake Third LH 4936. Although introduced onto the GWR by Collett from 1925, many of these modern-for-their-time coaches lasted in service until the 1960s, with many examples passing into departmental use. Some retained their chocolate and cream livery after nationalisation of Britain’s railways in 1948 and others were painted in the new owner’s crimson and cream. These wooden-framed, but steel-panelled ‘bow-ended’ coaches were also ‘handed’ in a throw-back to the days they were introduced, when coach sets were marshalled with the compartments to the south (sunny) side and the corridors alongside London Paddington’s Platform 1 for ease of loading/unloading. For example, a left-hand brake coach would have its corridor on the opposite side to a right-hand brake.

Hornby RailRoad GWR Class 800 MS Coach 812001

Product Code: R40490

(Pre-Order Due December 2025)

Production Details:

Hornby RailRoad GWR Class 800 MS Coach 812001. This GWR Class 800 Motor Second (MS) coach is one of the five coaches you need to recreate a full GWR Class 800 train. This is the perfect complement to the GWR Class 800 train pack that consists of the drive and dummy unit - you can add just this coach or any of the other two coaches available. The Class 800 trains were developed as replacements for the long-serving Class 43 HSTs and were first introduced on the Great Western Main Line in October 2017. Manufactured by Hitachi Rail, 36 five-car sets were built between 2014 and 2018 as part of the UK Government’s ‘Intercity Express Programme’ (IEP) and branded ‘Intercity Express Train’ (IET). The trains are bi-mode, capable of working along the newly electrified sections of the route, while diesel engines allow them to reach destinations that have not yet been electrified. An intended fleet of purely electric Class 801 ‘IETs’ were instead built to bi-mode specification in 2017/8, due to delays in completing electrification work, and these were designated as Class 800/3s. There are currently 21 of these running as nine-car sets. Sets designated Classes 800/1 and 800/2 operate as nine and five-car sets respectively under ‘Azuma’ branding for operator LNER on the East Coast Main Line. The GWR ‘IET’ sets are numbered 800001-800036 and 800301-800321 and several of these trains have been given two names, one on each of the driving units. These are mainly the names of well-known people from history, including famous sportsmen and women, politicians, decorated war veterans and members of the Royal Family, with the driving units each carrying a different name (some sets do have just one name). Interesting exceptions include 800010 which has ‘Paddington Bear’ at one end and his creator ‘Michael Bond’ at the other, and 800316 which is named ‘Lionesses’, in honour of the England Ladies football team. The GWR’s historic past is not forgotten either, and 800004 is named ‘Isambard Kingdom Brunel’ and ‘Sir Daniel Gooch’, both eminent engineers associated with the original Great Western Railway. Features: Gauge: OO, Operator: GWR , Designer: Hitachi Rail, Minimum radius: 2nd, Coupling Type: Non-NEM Pockets. Size (mm): L 341 x H 52 x W 35.

Hornby RailRoad BR intercity Mk3 FO Coach 41031

Product Code: R40485

(Pre-Order Due December 2025)

Production Details:

Hornby RailRoad BR intercity Mk3 FO Coach 41031. This First Open ‘FO’ InterCity Mk3 coach is an ideal coach to add to the B.R. High-Speed Train Set to increase the rake of coaches between the two Class43 Diesels. Mk3 coaches entered service in 1975 along with the Class 43 forming the iconic InterCity 125 trainset. After the HST Mk3 coach variant was introduced, further Mk3 coaches were introduced to the West Coast Mainline for use as part of locomotive-hauled trains. Whilst Mk3 stock is standard for HST units, the standard locomotive hauled stock is Mk3a. Mk3a stock differs from Mk3 stock due to the inclusion of buffers and a different electrical system that uses motor generator units in each coach to power air conditioning and other ancillaries. Mk3a stock was built until 1984, before 3B stock with improved seating and lighting was built from 1985 to 1988. Features: Gauge: OO, Operator: BR , Designer: BR, Minimum radius: 2nd, Buffer Type: Moulded Plastic Buffers, Coupling Type: Wide Tension Lock. Size (mm): L 300 x H 52 x W 35.

High-Speed Train Set to increase the rake of coaches between the two Class43 Diesels. Mk3 coaches entered service in 1975 along with the Class 43 forming the iconic InterCity 125 trainset. After the HST Mk3 coach variant was introduced, further Mk3 coaches were introduced to the West Coast Mainline for use as part of locomotive-hauled trains. Whilst Mk3 stock is standard for HST units, the standard locomotive hauled stock is Mk3a. Mk3a stock differs from Mk3 stock due to the inclusion of buffers and a different electrical system that uses motor generator units in each coach to power air conditioning and other ancillaries. Mk3a stock was built until 1984, before 3B stock with improved seating and lighting was built from 1985 to 1988. Features: Gauge: OO, Operator: BR , Designer: BR, Minimum radius: 2nd, Buffer Type: Moulded Plastic Buffers, Coupling Type: Wide Tension Lock. Size (mm): L 300 x H 52 x W 35.

Hornby RailRoad LNER Class 800 MS Coach 812201

Product Code: R40488

(Pre-Order Due December 2025)

Production Details:

Hornby RailRoad LNER Class 800 MS Coach 812201. This LNER Class 800 Motor Standard (MS) coach is one of nine coaches you need to re-create a full LNER Class 800. This is the perfect addition to the LNER Class 800 train pack that consists of the drive and dummy unit - you can add just this coach or there are another two coaches available that can be added to build a longer train. The Class 800 is a bi-mode multiple-unit train introduced to work alongside Hitachi’s all-electric Class 801 as part of the Government’s Intercity Express Programme (IEP). The first units in the UK were built at Hitachi’s Newton Aycliffe factory in 2014, using body shells shipped from the company’s Kasado Works in Japan. The trains first entered service on the GWR West of England Main Line in October 2017, with the LNER’s ‘Azuma’ trains starting on the East Coast Main Line in May 2019. The new trains were intended as replacements for the ageing InterCity 125 HSTs on both routes, along with the InterCity 225s on the East Coast. Ten five-car and 13 nine-car sets have entered service with the LNER and are used on front-line express passenger services. Initially, these worked services to Leeds, Hull and Newark, but from 1st August 2019, the first Class 800 ‘Azumas’ worked the London King’s Cross - Edinburgh Waverley ‘Flying Scotsman’ services. Features: Gauge: OO, Operator: LNER , Designer: Hitachi Rail, Minimum radius: 2nd, Coupling Type: Non-NEM Pockets. Size (mm): L 341 x H 52 x W 35.
