Eurobricks

Recommendation: yes 9.5 / 10 by legofan

Although having a piece count of only 378, it has a ton of train parts that almost immediately, one can create your own train car! 5 minifigs is super generous! You get 2 train workers, 1 train officer and 2 civilian minifgs! Great!

Playing with Bricks

Recommendation: meh 9 / 10 by Nachos Grande

The play value suffers slightly since you don't get a train engine but otherwise this is an awesome set. The extra trucks are a nice touch and each train car is suitably different from the others to make for a much more varied cargo train. If the set wasn't so expensive on the aftermarket, I could see myself going after another copy or two, that's how much I like this set!
