Recommendation: yes 9 / 10 by Holodoc

This set is surely a nice one, containing hours of fun for you and the whole family. Did we get a better cargo train the last years? It depends on how you look at it. The variety of submodels is amazing and offers a great playability, but there are some facts I cannot overlook: I'm missing the lights and I'm sure in contrast to the older cargo train 7898 the children will be missing the horn as well.

This was a gift for my 4 year old who loves Lego's. We have always been happy with our Lego purchases and this train has been an exceptional hit at our house! Being 4 he needed help putting the train together; but he is able to work the train and move the tracks on his own. I have been extremely impressed with how smooth the train runs. We own other non Lego trains and I am more impressed with the Lego train than the other toy trains we own. I would recommend purchasing this item. We will be purchasing the Lego City passenger train for his Birthday to add to our collection.
