QUOTE Hornby decoders were perfect due to its small size but what I have read so far shows me to keep away from it.

If it gets you out of a tight spot and all you want to do is move forwards and backwards at around £8 ts worth trying one and then you can make up your own mind. If you find its not for you then you can always resell the decoder.

Happy modelling

QUOTE Gary, to be honest, all our loco's in our club layout are fitted with the hornby decoders run by the Select.

the Hornby R2641 BR Class 50
R2656 BR Class 73 and
Stanier 8F
Liliput DB Br 86 fitted with loksound decoder.

Now we took this layout on an exhibition in one of the biggest malls in Istanbul.
The layout was there for exactly 1 month. These poor souls started running at 9 am till 10 pm a total of 13 hrs non stop /day.
Total of 390 hours! Non of them let us down in performance and are still kicking except the liliput Br 85 who threw in the towel 3rd week.

Thank you for your honesty eBaykal. Really given that you have had the experience that you have had its a question of what do you think will work best for you. You would have to question some of the comments offered here based on your own experience. I know I would!

Happy modelling
