good little DC controller, easy to use and a quality made product. I've had mine for a few years and it definitely beats all the other dc controllers from Hornby in the past. very much would recommend for model railway users who opt for DC layouts

Had been struggling for a couple if years with son's Hornby train set the cheap Hornby controllers would cut out after 10 minutes tried several old and new types to no avail. Especially didn't like the slightly older 1980s made in GB Hornby trains, didn't dare try my triang ones. But this works a treat more expensive than the cheap Hornby ones but much better doesn't cut out, at low speed is alot more controllable, he can use it for shunting and full speeds trains much quicker. It supplies a full 1Amp but is also much better built, very smooth control. My son is 4 and quickly got the hang of the new controls just need to limit him to 50bon the dual now 😄.

So, during lockdown, I decided to build a layout. The basis of this would be to use the rolling stock and electronics from a cheap but recent Hornby set i had got at Christmas. I initially used the standard Hornby controller and was happy enough with the slow running of the 0-4-0 loco that came in the set. However, things soon escalated and I found myself in the position of requiring an output for point motors. Bought the Gaugemaster Combi as this has this facility. Can’t get over the overall improvement in running of the loco particularly with regard to slow running and smoothness. The cheap Hornby 0-4-0 is now great for shunting on an Inglenook type layout.
