Big boys toys!!
Bought this for my grandson for Christmas and to make sure that everything worked my husband set it up. (And played with it all afternoon). A bit fiddly getting the track assembled and my main concern was the controller. From reading reviews a lit seemed to have ones that didn’t work which is why we set it up. Value for money? Yes possibly. The controller is a bit flimsy and cheap looking. Not sure how long it will last. Also no rail map so have had to send for one. The controller in the flying Scotsman set appears to be a better quality. It’s fir a 5 year old so would recommend .

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

Good value for money
It is good value my only gripe is the controller its very outdated like 1980s and for £200+ Hornby could do better but the rest of the set is excellent 👌 👍
