Most turntables have a deep well and some modellers don't like the Hornby or Atlas ones because they don't have one.
Well, some TT's in the real world don't have one either. Take a look at this one in Moldova. http://www.railway.md/en/A.photos...x=15&be=technic/3-&num=04
Then compare it to the Hornby one

It's down to personal preferance really. If they are both prototypical, neither is wrong.

They are very good turntables that automatically align with the exit tracks, but the motor is very noisy and needs some way of muffling it.
