R1092 City Freight. The powerful Deltic locomotive included in this set can make easy work of pulling the 5 assorted pieces of rolling stock around the oval of track included with the set. A siding is also incorporated into the oval so that simple shunting manoeuvres can be performed by the enthusiastic operator.

A nice set and at the right price. Perfect for young and not so young starting out. Very little to fault this lovely set. The ex-Lima deltic moulding used in the set isn't to scale and is too short, for someone wanting a true scale model this isn't the set for them.
For those who want something to run around the layout or are just starting out this is a lovely set.
My example was faultless and the loco performed very well, a good hauler with plenty of power. I have marked the set as an 8/10 as there is no need for traction tyres to be fitted to models nowadays, other makes don't have them so why Hornby insists on having some of these models fitted with traction tyres is beyond me, traction tyres are so dated in this day and age. Also with the loco not being to scale I felt that it deserved a point deducted. Overall thought a lovely set.
