The reality is that Hornby focus mainly on the railway brand and Scalextric is a secondary activity. I mean both in financial terms and in the ethos of the company. I'm not aware of a senior management person who has a long-standing preference for Scalextric.
The company seems to be in recovery mode and in such an atmosphere, the safe bread-and-butter activities are the priority.
