5 car trainset
Found both the train pack and carriage set in Janes Trains, when out of stock here. Beautiful models with superb detailing. Runs very smoothly and I love the close coupling and lighting in the four trailing carriages. Only sad no lighting in carriage area on powered unit. Janes Trains fitted the DCC and it works perfectly. Can't wait for TTS chips. Please Hornby, can you provide DCC settings on the site.
