bill7437 Posted November 30, 2017 Share Posted November 30, 2017 Is this range of French HO Scale building kits still available in the UK or France.??? They were inherited by Hornby from Martine and Olivier Lanter of MKD who are no longer associated with Hornby France. These items did complement the Jouef building kits range but neither of these ranges appear in the 2017 Jouef Catalogue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bill7437 Posted January 14, 2020 Author Share Posted January 14, 2020 I have been given to understand that the range of building kits by MKD of mainly French outline are to be re-introduced this year. Looking at a PDF of the 2020 International Catalogue there is no sign of this range. Is a separate catalogue to be introduced for this range later in the year ????

ellocoloco Posted January 14, 2020 Share Posted January 14, 2020 @bill7437 The only mention of Hornby relauching MKD I have seen was Tim@Hornby's post on a previous thread. Maybe he can give us more insight...........or we'll have to wait for May's Continental Modeller. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have the artwork and prices from the factory but that was received too late to pop into the full catalogue. Once we have a delviery date and final produciton models, we will produce a leaflet.

Also, treat any PDFs with caution, the full catalogue has not been created in a PDF format by us, but I am aware someone leaked a draft which was saved in PDF for various experts who work with us to see and check for errors. You are quite probably looking at something before it's final polish. I recommend buying the full catalogue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bill7437 Posted February 23, 2020 Author Share Posted February 23, 2020 I gather from Tim at Hornby that this range is to be re-introduced this year. Although the new International catalogue for 2020 has been published these items were too late to be included and I am advised that after launch a leaflet on same will be produced. Perhaps this could be put on to the net so we can all know just what is to be available ???? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perhaps we should stick to just the one?Tim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bill7437 Posted March 6, 2020 Author Share Posted March 6, 2020 Thanks Tim for the info I will keep an eye out around Quarter 3. although I have a number of these items from Martine's days. I would assume from your comments that these will be reissues from existing tooling rather that newly tooled additions to this range. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
96RAF Posted March 6, 2020 Share Posted March 6, 2020 Com Mod noteI have moved the earlier MKD post content into this one at Tim’s suggestion, without affecting the original posting time-date to maintain flow, but I am unable to locate the third post spoken about. If anyone can point me to it I will amalgamate that content here as well.Rob Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tim M Posted March 9, 2020 Share Posted March 9, 2020 Hi Rob,There are a few comments in the 2020 new items posting, but nothing informative just asking repeats of the questions you've now captured baove.https://www.hornby.com/uk-en/forum/hornby-intlelectrotren-new-items-2020/?p=1Tim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
