Hornby Circus Train Big Top Train Set R1107
This circus set is bound to appeal to young modellers and has the
advantage that it provides a link between the Thomas & Friends range, with its circus
wagons and lineside features, and the new SkaleAutos series of diecast road vehicles in
various circus guises. In fact, the set includes a SkaleAutos Bedford TK circus van as a
wagon load. The livery of the set and the SkaleAutos vehicles is Bartello's Circus and to
complete the picture there is a big-top that is simple to assemble from a card kit (no
glue necessary). The Trakmat is also specially designed specifically for the set.
The contents of the set are a Class 06 diesel shunter in circus livery, a former 8 ton LNER refrigerator van also in circus livery, a 'Bogie Steel AB' converted to carry the Bedford van and another 'Bogie Steel AB' with a painted resin moulding representing a folded tent. This last model we have seen before in the Thomas circus series as R9214. The track provided in the set includes two points and there is the usual power controller.
