Hornby’s 2022 range contained a handful of surprises. As someone with a penchant for all things LMS, it’s good to see that a couple of all-new steam locomotive models will be appearing in the near future. You can read all about Hornby’s range on pages 6-9 but, without spoiling too much of the fun, I must say how pleased I was to see the appearance of a few new diesel and bi-mode multiple units.
Firstly, the re-emergence of the Class 110 will surely be popular among diesel fans, despite it being a revamped version of the 1980s-era model. I’ve been upgrading a ‘110’ set recently, and examples had become rather difficult to source on the pre-owned market (for sensible prices), so look out for that project in an upcoming issue of Model Rail.
