Hornby has today unveiled a steamy new platform OnlyTrains, a brand-new social platform designed for people who love spending time with theirs, and know it’s worth showing off properly.
Whether it’s tucked away in the loft, set up in the spare room, or spread generously across the dining table, OnlyTrains gives enthusiasts the perfect place to share every inch of their setup. Big, small, loud, or finely tuned – if you’re proud of it, there’s an audience waiting.
Described as “the steamiest app for rail enthusiasts”, the platform is packed with “steamy locomotives and dirty diesels”, giving users a space to upload exclusive content – from long, satisfying running sessions to intimate close-ups of their favourite engines.
And of course, it wouldn’t be complete without some familiar favourites. Whether you’re showing off your Dick Hardy or Barry Growler, OnlyTrains is the place to let them run freely and be fully appreciated.
Users can connect directly with fellow enthusiasts, take requests, and share exactly what people want to see – whether that’s a particular loco in motion, a slower, more controlled run, or a bit of precise shunting. Some even prefer to bring others in for a longer session.
Martyn Weaver, Hornby Brand MD said, “Everyone has their own way of enjoying theirs. Some like a smooth run, others enjoy a bit of careful shunting, and plenty take real pride in keeping everything clean, well-oiled and performing at its best. OnlyTrains is about giving people the space to share that and connect with others who appreciate it just as much.”
The campaign celebrates the lifelong love many have for the hobby. For some, it’s something they enjoy quietly; for others, it’s something they’re more than happy to share.
And while other platforms are filled with everyday updates, OnlyTrains keeps things focused – a dedicated feed of powerful engines, smooth runs and enthusiasts who know how to handle them.
Sign up today and start sharing yours with people who really want to see it.
Because when it’s this well maintained…it deserves an audience.
