Frank Hornby invented the train set, Meccano, the Dinky Toy and Scalextric. Born in 1866, he started his own toy manufacturing company. He "started" because he read a book called Self Help by Samuel Smiles, which tells the stories of great men who have invented useful things. Originally published in 1915.
