Building Packs
With so much choice, sometimes deciding which buildings to add to a new model railway can be almost as confusing as deciding which layout to build. The Hornby building packs have been carefully compiled to include a variety of detailed resin buildings to suit the layouts theme.
There are three packs to choose from with each having their own selection of buildings.

Beyond Layouts Made Easy
When creating a model railway, it is always best to consider the following points. Where will the layout be located? Is it dry and is the temperature consistent? Are there enough power points and lastly what control system will be used – Standard DC (analogue) or DCC (Digital)? Each have their own advantages but if in doubt go and see your local model shop and they will be pleased to advise. Remember modelling railways is fun, do not make it stressful.
If you wish to add to your layout, be it additional locomotives or scenic accessories then visit either your local model shop or www.hornby.com.
