mikegreen Posted March 22, 2017 Author Share Posted March 22, 2017 Thanks Hairy, that is the sort of information I was looking for. With regards to why, I guess it is purely interest. I looked in Ramseys and some are there but scattered throughout the various engine classes, I contacted Hornby Customer Services and they said "there is no such list" so I thought I would try the Forum to see if I could complete a comprehensive list. Who knows it may be of help to a collector somewhere or someone trying to locate a model they have. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

81F Posted March 22, 2017 Share Posted March 22, 2017 There was also the Torquay Pullman which I think contained a Castle. I never bought the pack so do not know the loco but I did buy the coaches from a split pack off eBay they were Pullman parlour cars (based on the railroad type) and were Juanna, Zena and Evadne. I also have Octavia, Lydia and Niobe which are also the based on the Railroad pullmans from the white pullman set. The loco was also 773. This was one of the few absolute bargains I got from ebay. The seller had split the set and was offering loco and coaches without box separately for around £30 less than the MRRP. When I bought the lot he threw in the box complete with all the paperwork and cetificates! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bulver Posted March 23, 2017 Share Posted March 23, 2017 Hi Mike,a good guide for this sort of info appears to be Hornby railway collectors guide . I note you have not listed the 'Mighty Mallard' set, which is described here http://www.hornbyguide.com/item_details.asp?itemid=809 . This link will take you to said guide, which appears to be a comprehensive register of all things Hornby, and gives further links to relevant guides etc. Hope this helpsRod Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mikegreen Posted March 24, 2017 Author Share Posted March 24, 2017 Thanks for all the input, Yes I know it seems a waste of space and time but we all have our fobiles. Some of the information received is useful, but I did stipulate Train Packs not Train sets. The difference being sets come with track and controller, the Steam Outline train packs are purely engine plus 2/3 coaches or in 2 known cases wagons (The colliery Set and Fitted Freight). Once again Thanks for your input. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
new lad on block Posted March 29, 2017 Share Posted March 29, 2017 Hi Mike, Thankyou for taking th time to type in all the Steam Loco Train Packs.It must have been quite a feat.Is it only the Steam one you are interested in ?As there ar several diesel / electric Train Packs.If you would like a photo of any of the train packs, post which one.Except for the Latest R3400 and one or two of the diesel packs I have most of them.When I have time will check your list, against what I have and comment on any discrepencies.

mikegreen Posted March 29, 2017 Author Share Posted March 29, 2017 That sounds as if it could be interesting. I hope the list is near complete and is STEAM outline only. I know Hornby made loads of HST packs and DMU packs but the list is purely steam outline. If you know of any that are missing let me know through the Forum so I can update my list.

new lad on block Posted March 29, 2017 Share Posted March 29, 2017 Hi Mike, Couple of points, are you using Ramsey's guide, 9th. edition.This is the latest edition.Also perhaps, contriventual Hornby did two Thomas steam packs. R9087,Thomas with Annie and Clarabel coaches.R9088 Percy with two wagons.Two railroad packs R2670 and R3489.Both GWR Holden with freight wagons.R3321 Duchess of Sutherland with support coach.R3503 MRM ltd. Ed. Flying Scotsman with support coach.Will check more of my collection later. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikegreen Posted March 30, 2017 Author Share Posted March 30, 2017 Thanks for that, The Thomas packs and the GWR Holdens are interesting , but do not quite fit the bill. The NRM Flying Scotsman I wasn't aware of, nor the Duchess and support coach. Will update my list at home to reflect these. Many thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kimballthurl Posted September 6, 2018 Share Posted September 6, 2018 Hi Mike,Thanks for the list. I find it frustrating that Hornby do not offer lists like this, as a normal part of their customer marketing.I have asked on numerous occasions if a model is die-cast or plastic, and nobody in Hornby seem to know or care, because I never get a reply.

The son of Triangman Posted September 6, 2018 Share Posted September 6, 2018 You will need to go back a lot further as packs existed long before the 1980's Rocket pack. Have a look at a 1971 catalouge. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Going Spare Posted September 6, 2018 Share Posted September 6, 2018 You had better include brand-new R3614 as, although it appears to be just a locomotive, the website promotes it as a "Pack"!GS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
new lad on block Posted September 6, 2018 Share Posted September 6, 2018 HI Going Spare,That has opened a can of worms what is the definition of a Train Pack? Normally I would say it is a loco and rolling stock only.But!, theres always an exception what about the new R3612 Mallard.That has loco, mounted gold track and a replica plaque.Also do we include the HST loco and DVT as a pack and others like the class 466,and other EMUs & DMUs mostly two 'cars' in a box (Pack). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Going Spare Posted September 6, 2018 Share Posted September 6, 2018 My view is that a Train Pack is more than just a single locomotive but less than a Train Set which includes track and a controller. Your examples of HST/Brighton Belle motorised and non-motorised driving cars (and others) would constitute a pack alongside a locomotive with rolling stock (coaches or wagons) plus DMU/EMU units. i.e. a 'train pack' consists of a motorised item and other non-motorised item(s). A locomotive supplied with a section of track upon which to display it would still be just a locomotive. Whilst I was in the trade, I believe these views reflected Hornby's own and the reference to Rhyl as a pack is incorrect.GS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steamy1957 Posted September 8, 2018 Share Posted September 8, 2018 I think you missed R3402 LNER QUEEN OF SCOTS with A4 Garganey plus 3 pullman with working table lights plus Hornby train pack 15 Guineau Special featuring Britannia Oliver Cromwell due to be released in September not sure of the code going back in time there was car-a-belle train pack plus 3 different blue pullman train packs from the 60s Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
