Hornby's current model live steamers are British OO scale, i.e. 4 mm to 1' and not HO scale at 3.5 mm to 1'. The current range is just Sir Nigel Gresley's Pacific A4's, one of which, Mallard, still holds the World steam record. In one of our Saturday papers, whilst announcing excellent company results for Hornby, it stated Hornby were intending to issue new live steam models for both the USA and Germany next year. Could this be based on Rivarossi models from the Lima acquisition? Might be a Big Boy for the USA and a German 01 pacific. Just my guess though. These would be HO. Hornby are opening its first shop in the USA on 24th November, although this will be for slot car Scalextric initially. Lots of nice things to look forward to from Hornby over the pond.
