    Hey Hornby! Love your products but I have a suggestion. You should really consider producing N gauge or 009 models in the future, as that would sell incredibly well and is something i would definitely buy. With how excellent quality your models are there is no doubt the community would be delighted! 😁

      ​​@@CrumpledSandwichactually... lets do some research see how good the good old days were.
      So found me a price list from 1966, you can score yourself a generic european pacific thing in TT with a smoke unit for what works out to like £170 today, oh you want a tender? Thats sold separate and they'll want about £20 more for that. These numbers are probably a little off so we'll call it £200 to be safe side once you've got your hands on it.
      Now of course wages were also less back then because that's how these things work so actually that'll work out to a higher % of your income back then so you'll feel the pinch even more when you buy it. And you get for your money a TT model of a generic continental loco with a smoke unit that relies on heat to operate, can't be turned on or off without dismantling the thing, would warp the plastic body of your loco if you let it get too hot and filled your room with toxic oil smoke(mean not that this was a huge concern as back then you'd be exposed to cigarette smoke everywhere but the principle matters)
      300 today, nice tooling, none toxic smoke... don't seem bad at all really.

    I ran mine down at the club last week. It was very well received. Main comments were about whether the unit could be retrofitted to existing locos (unlikely) and that the steam isn't quite as dense as in real life (physics). Otherwise, a good step forward for the hobby. The vapour being cold is a bonus, no risk of burning yourself. Also ran for about half an hour on one fill which is very good.

    If only the W1 hush hush and 9F models had a smoke generator, Hornby have had some great steam locomotives over the years, such a shame the diesels aren’t as good in my opinion, could these smoke generator locomotives use a different brand sound decoder?

    This is great. However I think you need to issue a product recall on the black fives now.
