Hornby Playtrains

Hornby Playtrains
Start an exciting model railway journey with Flash. All run on a remote control system, this brand new toy train set includes everything required to start a special model railway adventure.
The train features working lights, multiple sounds and 3x speeds in forward and reverse. With additional products available such as solo locomotives, rolling stock and track packs there are endless opportunities to expand and build a Playtrains world!
Why choose Playtrains?
• The packaging is environmentally friendly (cardboard for the box, pulp paper for the tray and paper for the buildings)
• The tracks are easily spliced thanks to a special clip
• The cardboard buildings let the child develop manual skills
• The train units can be easily connected through special magnets to guarantee the user’s safety
• The length of these elements has been studied to let the children handle and put them on the tracks without difficulty (the section is already in scale 1:87 and this brings the child closer to the professional scale of the train)
• The study was done to make the controller ergonomic, easily managed by a child
The Playtrains journey – where to start?
