Review: Gutes Komplettset
Review: Disaster of a Christmas morning. Purchased this for my autistic 8 year old son who is a train enthusiast. Paid €230 worked for less than 30 seconds. Controller is like something from a €20 train set. Has 3 separate people look at it on Christmas morning as he was so upset. All said the same waste of money. When I started the refund with desertcart they offered me €16eur to not refund d or send back. Yet another insult for a Christmas ruined

The engine itself is beautiful. The controller failed after one good run around the track. Cheap and nasty. Come on, Hornby, you're supposed to be the best!
