Disaster of a train set. Do Not buy
Disaster of a Christmas morning. Purchased this for my autistic 8 year old son who is a train enthusiast. Paid €230 worked for less than 30 seconds. Controller is like something from a €20 train set. Has 3 separate people look at it on Christmas morning as he was so upset. All said the same waste of money. When I started the refund with Amazon they offered me €16eur to not refund d or send back. Yet another insult for a Christmas ruined

Nearly Perfect Train Set
A high-quality gorgeous model train with coaches to match and a decent sized track with trackmat that adds a bit extra to the layout. The train runs very smoothly and quietly and has already given hours of enjoyment to the 80-year-old recipient. Assembly was easy and fairly quick with the train running within 15 minutes of unboxing. The included re-railer is a brilliant addition to the set, making it easy for to get the model back on the rails. I've dropped a star due to the included controller being sub-standard: it keeps switching off by itself then requires a socket switch off, wait of 30 seconds and a switch on to get it working again. Over all it's a great set but let down slightly by the poor controller.

Fat controller sacked!
The engine itself is beautiful. The controller failed after one good run around the track. Cheap and nasty. Come on, Hornby, you're supposed to be the best!
