Description

A train for travellers

At the centre is a train with a locomotive and passenger carriages in which the minifigures can take a seat. With 669 pieces the set is shorter than a large freight train but long enough to look like a proper train. The 3 minifigures stand for the driver and passengers, so journeys between stations can be acted out. For a town layout with tracks it is a sensible addition, because a passenger train gives a railway line an immediate purpose. With the figures seated in the carriages the train looks much livelier on the rails than an empty one.

Red, black and grey

Red is the boldest colour and defines the carriages and locomotive, while black supplies the chassis and roof. Light bluish grey and dark bluish grey fill in the windows, roofs and technical parts. The colour scheme looks classic and recalls the commuter trains you know from many routes. If you already have stations and tracks in grey tones, you can use the train without any clash of style and link it with other carriages. The contrast between the red carriages and the grey rails and platforms works especially well.

99 part types, easy to follow

With 99 different parts the range is more manageable than in many trains that come with cargo and a crane. The build therefore moves along briskly, and the individual carriages are similar enough that you repeat stages more than once. That suits anyone who prefers a calm building experience and wants a train at the end that runs along the rails without much fiddling. It is mostly played with on a loop of track, but it looks good on a shelf too. Because there are fewer accessories, the space it needs on the table stays moderate.

Parts list and reuse

The parts list on this page shows all the different parts with quantities, so you can check a second-hand set or buy missing elements. The “What can I build?” tool shows which other models could come out of the contents and your collection. Wheels, window elements and red plates are well suited to your own carriages and platforms, and many of them match other City trains you may already own.
