What a Beauty! - Nigels - 02-13-2020

A bit of an oddity here, but a new release from Hornby who are celebrating their 100th anniversary this year a new version of the classic Stephenson's Rocket...  The actual footage of the model starts around 3min 18sec...

That is awesome and I just love those carriages.

Not much of a fan of steam from pre 1900, but its still pretty cool!

I just think its a real engineering triumph to make something that small run that smoothly and look so realistic.  I may have to get one of their limited edition versions before they sell out this year Smile

Didn't you just have a birthday a year ago? This is becoming a habit.

Well you know what they say, the older you get the quicker time seems to fly by, seems like it was not so long ago I had the last one that's for sure Smile
