Tri-ang Hornby Collection Model Railway

This is film taken of our Tri-ang Hornby Collection layout taken at the London Festival of Railway Modelling at Alexandra Palace in March 2010. All the items on the layout were built in Britain by Tri-ang Hornby in their Margate factory between 1965 and 1971. The layout features contemporary Series 4 track and station buildings from the extensive range produced by Rovex during the period.

I have used modern controllers to get good, consistent control of the locomotives. The automatic exchange system at the back uses magnets and reed switches to stop and start the trains.

Thanks for the comments. The track plan is my own design but is available on my website. Address is at the end of the video..

Loved seeing the stock car with the giraffe ducking its head at the footbridge!! Haven't seen one of those in ages. A truly great collection there too, some of which I once had.

Great collection! Is the track plan a published one (Triang or Hornby) or own design? Would like to copy.

2:55-3:00... I don't think I've ever heard a little kid fussing in a Brittish accent before. ..All very cool stuff you have here, but it's so clean! Looks almost brandy-new. I always used my own antiqueing techniques for realism. I always wanted my stuff to look slightly rusty, used, broken in, beaten up by regular usage, like real trains do. (Well, here in America they do, anyway.) I had mostly Tyco & Bachman HO guage, with Roco military miniatures, and a few matchbox cars...
