Join us for a first look at the new Hornby L&MR Planet Locomotive (R30511).
Built for the Liverpool & Manchester Railway in 1830, Planet followed directly from the success of Rocket and introduced several innovations that would shape the future of locomotive design. It was the first locomotive to feature inside cylinders and became the blueprint for many steam locomotives that followed.
In this video, we'll take a closer look at Hornby's latest model, explore the history behind the prototype, and see how this pioneering locomotive has been recreated in OO gauge.
