Hornbys flag ship range of buildings is Skaledale, these models are finished to the highest standard with weathered details on the solid moulded items. They produce full ranges to allow section or themes to be implemented on your train layout. Such ranges feature mining building, gas works and complete station buildings and matching platforms.
The items are detailed with clear plastic in windows and some items even have moving parts. At present their range of buildings covers about 150 different items. The size of the items range from the smallest platform flower beds up to a very large windmill. The whole range of items are not the cheapest to purchase but with the level of detail on these items they still represent excellent value for money, especially compared to some plastic models that are available as even these are not what you would call budget items but you certainly get budget detail. If you are worried about the items toughness due to the items being moulded in one piece the models are surprisingly robust and this even makes them suitable for younger collectors. We feel the plastic models are more fragile than the excellent skaledale range.
The car range that Hornby produce is small but it is expanding, since their acquisition of Corgi they are now using their range of designs to be brought over to the skaleauto cars and trucks. Many of the items are suitable and compliment the skaledale buildings. The cars and trucks are surprisingly detailed and will help complete any layout to add a further level of detail to your pride and joy.
If you are looking to add either buildings or any scenery to your train layout then we would highly recommend the use of the Hornby range of buildings and vehicles. The buildings will take your layout to the next level with the use of further modelling techniques such as the use of gravels and scatters.
