Can anyone help me with this. When I was about four years old I visited a friend's house. This was about 1959. He had a new train set. He said it was a "Hornby" but I pointed out that Hornby was 3-rail and not 2-rail. He was adamant it was a "Hornby" which I now know to be at least possible. I
*think* the train set consisted of an airsmoothed Bulleid pacific and green coaches. I remember being startled by the green coaches as we both lived beside a ex-LNWR branchline so had only ever seen maroon ones in real life. Did Hornby ever make such a set? I've checked with various collector's sites and can't find a Hornby set which matches that description. Could it have been another make generically referred to as a Hornby? I may have got the details wrong or indeed imagined the entire event. TIA.
