"First I would say that the new power up system is not something I am a fan of... disappointed that Lego has changed the train control again if I have proper count this is the 5th change with the new system unless you download the app you are stuck with 1 train to a controller. Next I can only figure that the price is because of the power up it is not due to the detail put in, lazy use of 2x2 tiles behind doors instead of even attempting some form of motor on the crane, could have added some 2x2 round tiles with the wood grain cut for the logs. Maybe add some crossing gates for the rail crossing. Where are the control lever or 2 for the forklift. This is my mark against the price, still love Lego trains. I vote Go back to the electric train or stay with the power functions control. At least I can put down my phone to play."
