And assumes the track it's connecting to has the opposite fishplate attached.. So if your curves/straights you're connecting have none then you'll need to purchase some extras. **Q: I am looking to purchase this for my sons Hornby Santa Express set to extend the track, is it comparable and will the train operate on it ?** A: Yes it is okay for you to use , R8073 point right hand and R8072 is left hand. just make sure the electric feed to the track is in the correct position. I.E TO THE END BY THE PLASTIC LEVER .If it wasn't t he branch off piece would not have power to the rail which meant the loco would come to a stop. Hope that helps you. RW **Q: Do i Need a Separate control for points section Id so wgere do i get one** A: We manage the points manually, so you'd be best off asking in a hobby shop. You can get electronic points controls, but they sometimes only work sporadically. **Q: If I buy 2 do I pay for two postage’s** A: no if you buy 2 you just pay an extra 25P thanks mark ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Standard Solid Hornby quality *by on Reviewed in the United Kingdom 13 April 2026* Given that this item is the standard right hand turnout from Hornby then is comes well packaged in a useful storage sleeve and the item offers the normal durability and appearance that one would expect. The actual item is not yet attached to my board so it is difficult to comment specifically on the ease of use. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Ok *by on Reviewed in the United Kingdom 25 July 2026* Ok ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Railway track *by on Reviewed in the United Kingdom 11 July 2026* All good. ## Frequently Bought Together - Hornby Hobby Train Tracks - R8073 Right-Hand Standard Point 22.5 Degree Track Pieces - Small Scale Model Accessories for Train, Electric Railroad Supplies with HO/OO Gauge Compatibility, curved Tracks - Hornby Hobby Train Tracks - HT8301 2nd Radius Curve x 4 Blister PK, 438mm Track Pieces - Small Scale Model Accessories for Train, Electric Railroad Supplies with OO Gauge Compatibility, Curved Tracks - Hornby Hobby Train Tracks - HT8300 Straight Track Pieces x 4 168mm Track Pieces - Small Scale Model Accessories for Train, Electric Railroad Supplies with HO/OO Gauge Compatibility, Straight Tracks --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.gr/products/48761754-r8073-oo-gauge-right-hand-point-track-extra-track-pieces](https://www.desertcart.gr/products/48761754-r8073-oo-gauge-right-hand-point-track-extra-track-pieces) --- *Product available on Desertcart Greece* *Store origin: GR* *Last updated: 2026-09-01*
