Dear Hornby, I am sure you have a strategic reason for your collector’s club annual offering. I can only presume you are trying to attract a certain demographic of collector, probably aimed at younger members. However, the word collector suggests something of high value or a revered item. I think the loco offering each year is not fulfilling that objective. Over time and in my case I will shortly have my third gift loco, I have no use or see no value in the gift. I am at a point that in reality I am paying a subscription to receive 4 magazines a year and is it worth it, No. My grandson (18mths!) ends up with the Locos and even he does not now yet he’s got them! Of greater value would be a unique wagon, or similar rolling stock that most could fit onto an existing layout, perhaps that might encourage a further purchase of similar items. Or a generic line side accessory such a signal box, signal or similar. At least add value to someones collection! Given I am of a demographic that now has disposable income, I think the club membership is questionable. Maybe the answer is two categories “Junior Members” (give them the toy train) and “lifelong collector”.(wagon or valued item)
