There is something about the use of English instead of American, that seems to add authenticity to this Hornby presentation, John.

My first railway layouts were the larger clockwork Hornby O gauge (Christmas 1947) and later the Hornby Dublo (1953) electric trains with the the electrical pickup between the tracks. Examples of each below.

’Twas brillig, and the slithy toves
Did gyre and gimble in the wabe:
All mimsy were the borogoves,
And the mome raths outgrabe.

Ok....it aint so tuff once Ya get the hang of it 🤔 

the larger set above stirs memories of my old Marx set and the strongest recollection is that of the aroma.....am I alone in this?
