Ideal for OO Gauge modellers seeking a convenient way to add remote uncoupling to a Hornby layout, with support for both Hornby Digital and analogue DC operation.

The Hornby Uncoupler Unit provides a dedicated solution for remote uncoupling within an OO Gauge layout. Its specified placement at R600 straight-track joins or along an R601 double straight makes it suitable for incorporating controlled uncoupling points into a compatible Hornby track arrangement.

Install the uncoupler where two Hornby R600 straights join or halfway along an R601 double straight. For electrical operation, pair the unit with an R8243 surface-mounted point motor or an R8014 point motor installed beneath the baseboard. The point motor is not included with the uncoupler unit. The supplied instructions provide installation guidance.
