Frank Hornby, the founder of Meccano Ltd, situated inBinns Road, Liverpool, launched Hornby Trains as a brandin 1920. Since then the product and the company hasgone through many changes. The original scale of 7mm to the foot commonly known at '0' gauge was joinedand eventually superseded by the smaller and almost half sized '00' scale systembranded creatively as Hornby Dublo in 1938. After the Second World War manufacturing of the Hornby Dublo systemrecommenced and soon became the dominant scale but new materials and cheaperprices quickly brought major competition to Hornby in the form of RovexIndustries, which eventually became Tri-ang Railways. Over time Tri-ang obtainedthe Meccano company and rebranded their railway system Tri-ang Hornby. Eventually, after one more takeover the name Tri-ang was removed and the systemsimply became Hornby Railways. By the turn of the last century Hornby Railways had become just Hornby and withit a new evolution with manufacturing moving from the Margate factory where ithad been since 1954 to the Far East where modern manufacturing techniques liftedthe Hornby products from being pseudo toys to exquisite models demanded by today's selective modeller.

Made from old rolling stock and whatever may have been lying about, never mind the exterior- the true genius of these engines lies within. Every inch unique and engineered to perfection so that she runs like a dream and punches like a pugilist and if bits on the outside can't hold up to the strains they can simply be replaced or remoulded. Like the family broom, it's only had three new head gaskets and two new dead man's handles. Compatible with OO and HO track and accessories.

Designed by committee as a slow moving armoured vehicle, to get troops and armaments to the front line battle with the Martian Invaders. The Diesel Dames bought stocks and invested in a few of their own; repurposing them to run on rails (as had always been suggested) they increased their speed without damaging their pulling power. The rogue clearly is the brute able to smash through barriers and still take a heavy load. Compatible with OO and HO track and accessories.

Well, as safely as highly pressured boilers, threshing blades and drying ovens can be at speed! Compatible with OO and HO track and accessories.

Since the arrival of both rogue Cretaceous creatures (dinosaurs that slip through the open time stream) and the eco warriors, plantation owners have had to protect their crops from scavengers (dinosaurs go crazy for the tannins in tea). This protection is done by breeding and keeping tyrannosaurus rexes and feeding them from birth on red meat and fresh tea leaves. The tea makes them docile/tame enough to ride or even just let wander on your premises. Dubbed Tea-Rex, this modern breed of dinosaur is a plantation owners' best ally against tea thieves be they cretaceous or just opportunistic humans. Compatible with OO and HO track and accessories.
