[toekneekerching]

all that hornby anniversary stuff and the beetles themed stuff is pure unimaginative tat.

[GeorgeLowther]

It’s great that Hornby is making Locomotion

Perfect for the 200th Anniversary of the Stockton & Darlington Railway in 2025

[speleokeir]

Looks like a catch up year. I can't say there's much that's caught my eye.

[an_untitled_train_ist]

Any danger of 375/377/387 EMU’s rather than remodelling models that you already had?

[Beaglington]

I'll have to find somewhere else to ship anything I want from the 2024 range now Hattons is closing down

[joshslater]

At the very least, it’s nice to know Hornby’s coach line is still going. I’ve got the LNWR, LSWR and GNR sets and they’re beautiful. I’d like to see Hornby cover more liveries, perhaps Furness Railway blue or North Eastern maroon.

[Twm]

Nowt there for me personally. I was hoping for some HM7000 profile announcements.

Alot seemed geared towards collectors more than modellers.

The trainset side could use some innovations and serious thought if they want to appeal to the next generation

As for Skaledale why not re-release some old favourites like the gas works etc.

[Night_Ferry]

Hopefully some good news after Hattons. Something green with southern on it would be nice.

[zepheris_]

That's an improvement for the Flirt. 2x 5-pole instead of 1x 3-pole that was listed on the website last year. 😍

[IainDavies-zl]

Just bought 2024 catalogue, though I was looking at last year's!!!

[Michael-xpre]

I hoped for a S & DR Locomotion Number 1 - THANK YOU Hornby - order placed in time for the 2025 200 yrs aniversary

[Phil-ojnr]

As a BR (SR) modeller (1955 to 1965) there is nothing for me. Going by comments of other contributors the prices are horrendous. The last time I checked coaches I would like to buy they were around £75.00. Translate that into NZ dollars, add GST at entry and that would be about $NZ200.00. Also allowing for VAT off, and the ridiculous postage prices these days, I can’t justify the purchase.
Glad I collected most of what I wanted over last twenty years, but something Southern would be nice!

[thomasfrancis]

Nice to see Connie, Nellie & Polly (seem to vaguely remember that there was a fourth named variant?) back (for many their introduction to model railways via the Pickup Goods Set which could also make a welcome return) but it's a shame you couldn't use a body more like the original. Conversely, I can't see the point of bringing back the old Jinty with solid wheels when they are so common/cheap secondhand especially with the correct period couplings, etc. At what point do Hornby collectors realise that novelty items, eg the Beatles range, are just a waste of money/not realistic investments in their lifetime? Bring back BattleSpace, eg the Turbo Car?

[alanmusicman]

Wow that FLIRT is a lovely model. Ill be waiting for one of those I think - great trains. A 153 might also come my

[geoffreylaverne]

It's all Triang, Hornby died in March 1963 after 25 6:47 years of 3 rail & from 1959 2 rail. Triang didn't know to do with Hornby leading to Bachman, Dapol and others muscle in and catch Triang in a pincer movement. Using the Hornby moniker, Triang has struggled and still doesn't understand what its customers want. Flounder is the word which comes to mind😮

[ChaileyLeavers]

Not a single item in that lot interests me, nothing in the new TT120 scale is interesting, my guess is it's not the raging success Hornby (SK) hoped for. Too many toys like the beatles loco etc, good luck Hornby you are going to need it.

[brclass]

Catch up year by the looks. Maybe Locomotion for me. I have LNER Coronation set and a Streamline B17 coming. Hope it goes well for the company.

[modelrailwayfantasia]

Dear Hornby
Please focus on the railroad items.
There is a real need to encourage younger modellers into the hobby.
This hobby needs to become cool again and Hornby could be the face of that.
Eventually older models will stop illness etc
The hobby needs rejuvenation .
I hope that Hornby can take this consideration.
Many thanks Mark

[TomDavias]

It would be nice to see an E2 in the LBSC livery 🙂 and the return of the LBSC 4 wheeled coaches

[thomasmcilroy]

The 2024 range looks fantastic and the 66 looks fantastic and it's fantastic the you are bringing out R30358 class B1 as I have seen it on many railtours through Chelmsford over the years.

I have been on the class 755 406 flirt from Marks tey to Sudbury on my ovations last year and seen it at Norwich as well
