Quote from: Roy L S on March 05, 2026, 09:02:07 PMI think the reality is that TT120 is encountering economic "headwinds" just like any other scale.

Roy

I think everything is entering economic headwinds (and about to get a lot worse) but any new scale will take time to get traction. TT is a lovely scale and they've thought pretty hard about building a product range for it.

I do wonder whether it will just go the way of Z though.

Yes  I agree with a lot of the comments here. I do not think Hornby did themselves any favours excluding dealers from selling the TT range. Plus they have brought out the cheap range of sound decoders which maybe pretty good but they do not abide by the NMRA standards set. Of course being in n gauge it does not affect us too much, although I have heard of Hornby decoders being fitted into a n gauge loco, I will stick with Zimo thank you.

I have both of those aids in my flat, raised bog seat with handles and wheeled walker. So you'll be getting some practice in for when old age creeps up on you
