New release - pre-orders invited - expected during September 2025. preauthkernow

Embark on a nostalgic journey back to the 1970s and ‘80s era of Hornby train sets with this British Rail High Speed Train Set. Designed to the retro look of the famous Hornby R.685 train set but with today’s quality and detail, this train set is the perfect toy to rekindle amazing childhood memories that can be shared with future generations.

The InterCity 125 High-Speed Trains were introduced by British Rail in 1976, operating 125mph services on the Great Western Main Line and the East Coast Main Line before being introduced to other lines and were the fastest diesel trains in the world. This train set comes complete with a pair of Class 43 diesel drive
cars, one powered and the other a non-powered drive car. Each drive car has directional lighting that illuminates white at the forward end and red at the rear. This set comes with one Mk3 passenger coach, an
oval of track with a siding, a buffer stop and a controller with a mains power supply.

This train set grants you all you need in one box to create a train set that can offer hours of fun, excitement and nostalgia. There is also the option to build on this, extra coaches are available and can be added to make a longer train, there are various track additions and buildings that can be added to not only make it larger but also create a realistic world in miniature.
