Model Overview

Hornby’s RailRoad R30449 Train Pack reproduces LNER Class 800 unit 800201 in 1:76 OO gauge. The set contains a powered car and a dummy car, both with directional lighting. The red-and-white LNER livery suits an Era 11 layout based on present-day British mainline services.

Railway Background

The model depicts the real-world LNER Class 800, a bi-mode multiple-unit introduced under the Intercity Express Programme. The first UK units were built at Hitachi’s Newton Aycliffe factory in 2014. This makes the subject ideal for present-day British mainline scenes and franchise-era collections.

Model Railway Features

Both cars have directional lighting. Hornby specifies radius 2 as the minimum curve. The two-car pack measures about 68.2 cm long, so check the available length at your platform or in storage before extending the formation.

Layout & Collection Use

Use the Class 800 model on modern mainline formations, add it to contemporary station scenes or pair it with matching coaches and stock for a complete service. Its 1:76 scale makes it a natural match for existing OO gauge collections and contemporary British railway layouts.

Who This Product Is For
