Hornby R1279M Network Traveller Train Set

In Great Britain the railways were a key part of the industrial revolution, and ever since they have had an integral role in moving the country's freight. The Network Traveller represents a regional train tasked with the responsibility of supplying goods and materials to small towns and villages far away from the big cities. The people whose livelihoods depended on these supplies often had great affection for the trains that delivered them.
