Hornby Night Mail R1144 Train Set

£84.95 from John Lewis

Before motorways, millions of letters were delivered from town to town by railway. Many of these mail trains travelled at night and included a TPO (Travelling Post Office) coach in which bags of letters and small parcels were collected, sorted and then dropped off in bags at the relevant stations along the route. This set includes a distinctive London, Midland and Scottish 0-6-0 locomotive, plus a TPO and support brake coach. A 'net' projects from the coach to scoop the mailbag from the trackside pick-up hook. The bag is then automatically ejected into the trackside receiving bin at the place of delivery. Track layout: extended oval with one siding and a buffer stop. Box contents: LMS Class 3F 0-6-0 locomotive LMS Travelling Post Office LMS Brake coach Track: 3rd Radius Starter Oval Track Pack A (with point and buffer stop) P9000WWall Plug Transformer; R8250 Train Controller; R8206 Power Track Hornby MidiMat (1600 x 1270mm)
