Not Too Shabby For $200.00 USD
" It's me again, but I'm a little behind thanks to my account being locked.
I surprisingly got this early and never typed up the review for it.
Some things to note:
-the set provides good value for the set's components, the cars and crane work together greatly.
-is a good companion with the other summer 2015 train releases.
-is a good set in general (see JANGBRiCKS') Youtube review for the set).
The play value is okay by itself but when combined with the other train sets it becomes a true time-passer. The train was put together okay, but the price was a little beyond my taste. As a science fiction fan and a transportation geek, be expecting reviews from City, Creator, Ninjago, Chima, Star Wars and Ultra Agents in the future.
Bye for now. ;-) "

Barking Good, Little Bad
" It's all good. That's all I can say about it all. I strongly recommend the following:
-replacing the orange 1x3 orange tiles on the rear car inside bogie with a 2x2 round tile (any color, no prints; see JANGBRiCKS' Youtube review for this set)
-purchasing this set with 7895 Switch Tracks and 7499 Flexible Tracks to expand your layout when you get this set
-have a friend help you build- it's more fun! ;-)
Do note that the nose ends do exceed the track boundaries, so leave space between track and other surfaces and put stations and other track accessories on the inside of the track. Track/road crossings are okay, though.
The price is rather high, with the exception of the nose pieces modified specifically for this set. That I can except. Now, I, Woerthers2003, am waiting for Christmas of 2014 to get 60052 Cargo Train to complete Operation Choo Choo, my plan to collect some of LEGO's motorized trains. I will return around that time to do a review for it. I've had this set and also 7895 and 7499 since the day after Independence Day- mainly a United States holiday.
I hope you found this information useful, and if you plan to get the set, do please keep in mind that this set is great for starters, and this is my very first official motorized LEGO Train. Good job, LEGO! "
