R2702X BR InterCity Executive HST 125 High Speed Train

In 1986 British Rail introduced the dramatically different Executive livery onto their high speed InterCity services bringing a totally fresh look to the whole of the High Speed Train fleet and service. During the early days of this livery it was quite common to see the trains made up of coaches in both in the new Executive livery and the older BR blue.

Note that these units are only suitable for operation on second radius curved track or greater.

Pack contains:
1 HST High Speed Train Power Car
1 HST High Speed Train Dummy Power Car
Coaches are not include in the pack and will need to be purchased separately

The totally new Class 43 High Speed Train HST drive and dummy units are a superb match for the Hornby Mk3 Coaches. Each drive and dummy unit benefits from the latest in design and production techniques with detail features both inside and outside the model being reproduced to the finest degree. The power in the drive unit is supplied by a centrally mounted five pole skew wound motor which is connected to both bogies for maximum tractive effort. Both units have lights which illuminate in the direction of travel when used with analogue control, however, when used with a digital unit these lights can be operated independently.

Please note: Contrary to the instructions included with the new Hornby HST packs and before operating the model, remove both the transit brackets and screws, these items can then be discarded.
