Mehano also offer the Thalys and a couple of TGVs - including the "Duplex" double deck variant. Running qualities are apparently pretty good, I'd buy one if only I had the size of layout to justify it! <br /> <br />The Hornby HST and Eurostar are to OO rather than HO scale, so will look a little large alongside HO models - up to you if this bothers you or not, I happily have the two scales parked side by side. Bachmann have the tilting and non-tilting versions of Virgin Trains' "Voyager" units - the Class 220 and 221 (tilt/non tilt respectively). Dapol have offered the tilting Virgin Pendolino sets though it was a limited run and prices have gone crazy on the used market. I'd suggest the Bachmann sets as a good buy - they have dcc-ready mechanisms and Express Models can sell you a DCC lighting kit to fit them - this results in a model with remotely-switchable day and night lighting settings and looks very good.
