Thomas & Friends appeared in a series of children's books in the 1940s, and have delighted children and adults alike ever since. In 1984 Thomas & Friends appeared for the first time on British television and made an immediate hit - becoming without argument an even greater favourite with the younger fan.
The Hornby range includes many of Thomas' friends. This year there are new buildings to choose from, all of which add colour and excitement to the Hornby World of Thomas, and a range of new locomotives, coaches and wagons.

I'm 19 and always loved playing with Hornby trains as a kid. But after several years, and two brothers, I haven't had a working set for years. I saw this product on the cheap from amazon, and as I love Thomas the tank, especially Percy, as much as I love Hornby I asked my mum and dad for it for Christmas, more as a bit of a joke than anything.
Imagine my elation when, on Christmas morning, I unwrapped a big square box and it was this.
The product is superb. The train and coaches are of a high detail standard, and look like the show it's self.
There are a few teeny problems however:
The control box isn't as sturdy or accurate as they were when I was a nipper and the 'mail collection system' for the coach is a bit naff.
But overall it's a joy. I have spent hours sitting on my bed watching the little number 6 engine chugging round my room, and I feel like a child once more. Could not ask for a better present than that.

I purchased Percy and the mail train for my Granddson. On Xmas day we found that the speed / direction controller did not function the train would only run one way. I packaged it up and ask for a replacement. No problems with Amazon service, replacement with us in two days. However, when my granddson came round last night and we unpacked the newset... blow me the same problem but this time you could get the train to change direction and run but only if you kept the cortrol lever pressed tight against the end of the button mount, something a small three year old would not be able to do.
Clearly there is a fault. I will go out and buy a new controller today as my Granddsaon wants to play with his present.
I sugget someone speeks to Hornby.

This is a great train set, and comes well packed! Under estimated the actual size of the track and takes up more than our large kitchen table. My 4 year old son loves it and has learnt to use the controls well. Only thing that I thought was disappointing was the actual control itself, feels very cheap as though could break easily! Seems its a hornby standard one, for my sons age and his interest up to now, it does its purpose!!!
