The set is in good condition, although the power car may benefit from a service since it hasn't been run much in a long time. It's a bit jerky at slower speeds but at faster speeds it seems fine. It's most likely also due to the track needing a bit of a clean. The weight in the power car had somehow become loose so that has been fixed. This model is from 2008. The train runs in both directions with working lights front and rear. I lost some parts of the track while I've had it, so I've replaced them with other bits of track according to the back of the box to complete the set. Trakmat and manuals provided. Both buffer stops are also included.
This product would be a great fit for train enthusiasts, particularly for those who enjoy model railroading, as the Hornby R1076 Virgin Trains Pendolino Digital Train Set offers a detailed and authentic representation of the original Pendolino train used on the Virgin Trains network.
