Product Description
The easy and effective way of entering the Digital World of model railways! The powerful 0-6-0 tank locomotive can make easy work of the three wagons included in this set. The Select control unit can have allocated to it up to 60 locomotives and 40 points or operating accessories (See page 30) and is therefore ideally suited to those who wish to build on this train set and gradually create a fully functioning layout. The MidiMat included with this set can certainly help with the development of a functioning model railway with extensions being made easy with the addition of extra track packs and building packs.

Unfortunately had to return this item due to a fault with the DCC unit keypad. The models are excellent and well detailed. Overall the package is very good value. I think Hornby DCC might suffer from track issues. I found the short wheelbase engine and the dead frog points very challenging at slow speeds and the slightest film on the track interferes with the signal and causes hesitant running. Fixing track firmly and keeping it clean obviously help, and if used at "train set" speeds the running is a lot smoother. Probably ideal as a train set but might be a bit frustrating for someone looking to this set for a route into more serious modelling.
