Hornby maunsal coaches, Hard to belive but true

the teak coaches were more expensive because of the extra processes needed for the paint work. i thought the other livery's were overpriced.

"my theory is that they have realised that people up north are not as rich as those in kent where hornby is based "
Shouldnt that be the other way round??

Perhaps Hornby has realised that £30-£35 for a coach is too much? Perhaps there's less added detail to the Maunsells? I think people paid the price for the Pulllmans as they are very good, and the lighting added some "value". The Gresleys are not only expensive but have a less than accurate tumblehome. The Staniers are also expensive and most are banana shaped! I should add that I've got about 10 of each of the aforementioned so the faults didn't put me off! No interest in the Maunsells, however.
