About this deal
This deal is expired. Here are some options that might interest you:
This is probably a bit niche, but, if I put it on here, then you can decide for yourself whether it's of interest or not.
Hornby have, today, released a new sized model railway, the TT:120 - it is smaller than their usual 00 - I'm told this is a good idea for people with not a lot of space, but who don't want to go as small as N gauge.
Along with this new release, they are offering FREE membership to the TT120 club for 1 year. Normally this would be £30 in the UK or £35 for the rest of the world (embarrassingly it took me ages to work out what ROW stood for)
With this membership you receive certain benefits. A pin badge (as a pin collector, that's me covered ), and other things as below -

15% off all TT:120 purchases for a year,
4 magazines,
Entry to the Hornby Visitor Centre Museum (I've been, it's in Margate. It's a good place for nostalgic adults and well behaved children - there are things that can be played with - but it's not a 'theme park' for kids which some people seemed to think judging by their reviews).
They do sell Hornby products there, including mementos, but check your prices, it's not always cheaper.
Tip, if two of you are going to go, both sign up for the free membership, that way you'll both get in free.
There's some other bits and pieces - see link

Him indoors says they seem to be putting some serious money into this new size railway. I believe this is meant to be more suitable for smaller houses because you can put it on a board and slide it under the bed.
You can still join the 'normal' Hornby club with discounts off their other products, but it's not free. They're not replacing 00 with this, it's just an additional size that's a bit more compact.
Anyway, as I said, you're either into this, or you're not. I'm just sharing it in case.
I wasn't sure if this should have gone in the freebie section, but the 15% off swayed me here instead. If you think it should be moved, by all means, go ahead.

sorted byI wasn't sure anyone would be interested, so I'm just glad to see the heat added. I'm warming my hands on it right now
I've already got a house full of OO and N, so I won't be investing, but might be interesting to see what the 'new' gauge is all about - for free.
With the 'normal' Hornby collector's club, you used to get a free loco (albeit a dubious 0-4-0, which went like a scalded cockroach, but couldn't pull the skin of a rice pudding... Until they replaced it with a £20 voucher).
My local model centre wouldn't honour the 10% Hornby discount card, claiming "we heavily discount our prices, anyway". (edited)
We used to have the same thing regarding discounts with our local store, but with model flying club discounts. They soon went out of business.
That would be news to my grandad who had a TT scale model railway for many years (before he died 20 years ago)!
But thanks for posting: I hadn't realised Hornby were going into that market. I might sign up for the free year just out of curiosity.
Further info from my other half. Apparently they gave this TT size a try in the 1960's (no doubt what your granddad had) but there was a problem with it and they couldn't sell it internationally. This 'new version' had corrected that (edited)
He did find a couple of reduced models of the older international version but the prices were astronomical.
