Shane McD Posted September 27, 2020 Share Posted September 27, 2020 Hi all, new to the site. A quick question with regard to reference/catalogue numbers of Hornby Stock. I have some old(er) engines and rolling stock from Hornby and, with regard to the R.758/R.768 C.I.E. Livery Class 35 Hymek, I know that the "R.758" is etched on the underside of the engine. My question is: Do all the engines and rolling stock have the catalogue numbers etched on them somewhere or no? Cheers Shane McD Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DiveController Posted September 30, 2020 Share Posted September 30, 2020 I have a feeling they did at least for locos but it's been so long I'm not sure about all. You'll need someone older and wiser @WRENNEIREis your resident expert on that question I would think Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shane McD Posted September 30, 2020 Author Share Posted September 30, 2020 Thanks DiveController Some guys on another forum said that it is not common for the numbers to be etched on the stock. Some of the lower Hornby R numbers have been recycled and R.768 is now a packet of "Cows"!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
