My 7 year old saved his birthday and Christmas money to purchase this set. He is a very advanced builder for his age and he completed this build quickly, by himself (he let me sort a bag!) We love the attention to detail- the way cars enter and come off the car carrier, the crane operation, and the easy connection to other Lego train sets. The engine seems powerful compared to the passenger rail set and can pull ALL of the cars from both sets. This gets played with daily and holds up very well, even with occasional train wrecks!
I enjoyed building this set, and have been interested in the train sets for years. They are very expensive though. In my opinion, too expensive for a set to give to children.
Our son loves trains and I have been slowly building a little village, I wanted a train that our son would want to play with, would work with my small village, and maybe go around a Christmas tree in coming years. I think we found it, everyone got to build a part of it and was some great family time!
I would recommend this to a friend!

The perfect match for your train enthusiast at home! We're thrilled to hear you're creating building memories together! The power of play is just magical. Happy building!
A really good train over all, (my first one, and a great one) with very few bad things. The train's size is great (3 ft long) and each car is very usefull and cool, with pleanty of tracks (Over 4ft by 2ft). Only things are the price (although still acceptable), storage, and the crane grabber can't open. If you want to release the cargo that's being grabbed, you have to do it manually. Kinda weird, and maybe im just missing something, but overall a really really good giant train.
We love LEGO in our house, it’s the majority of what we get for birthdays and Christmas.
I knew this needed batteries, however, I wrapped it before paying attention to the box and went online looking for how many and what type it needed. I couldn’t find it here, so looked at Target’s website, which says 4 AAA. That’s what I bought, and here on Christmas morning it needs 6 more. Please list this more clearly in the product description so that other parents don’t end up like me without their kid able to play with their new toy on Christmas! It’s in the reviews, but that’s not where I’d think to look for what batteries are needed, nor should it need to be.
Thanks LEGO!
I would recommend this to a friend!

Great find and we're sorry for the frustration not having the battery information caused. We hope this freight train is now running the tracks and we'll pass this along to the right teams!
