Hello everyone and let us start by saying a big Happy Birthday to the late great Frank Hornby, an innovator, visionary and without whom you and we would maybe not be involved in this wonderful hobby.

On with the celebrations! You may have seen on our social media pages this last week a few teasers and guessing games, in addition to the birthday discount available across the Hornby website today (Friday 15th May 2015). This week’s Engine Shed adds to the birthday celebrations with the reveal of a brand new 2016 item. So without further ado we are proud to announce, due to popular demand, that we are producing five different Collett ‘Bow Ended’ Standard 57′ Corridor Stock Coaches – the C54, D95 right and left hand and E127 right and left hand. – We’re pleased to say that all of these items are now available to Pre-Order.

Happy Birthday Frank Hornby! / News | Hornby.
