Lego 2010 Review: Set 7937 City Train Station
As part of its 2010 train range of sets, Lego have also decided to release a train station to accompany their passenger and cargo trains. While the train sets themselves are the main draw of this range but the latest release train station is a very playable model to accompany them
With 361 pieces and priced at $49.99 its quite a tidy set and features a number of different areas for kids to play, regardless as to whether or not they actually have a Lego train set or not. With a few modifications most Lego cars and trucks can serve for trains and this station has all the features of a modern train platform to enhance their play.
The set features 4 minifigures including 1 train driver, 1 taxi driver, and 2 travellers (a woman and a backpacker dude). Also included are the ticket office/kiosk, a sheltered waiting area, ticket machine and timetable and station map. A taxi waits to pick up passengers and can fit two minifigs inside, one behind the other in true taxi style.
The layout of the station spans two separate platforms connected by an overhanging pedestrian bridge. The platforms are only wide enough apart to fit a single train track layout so unless you want to sit a second track outside of the smaller platform then you will need to lengthen the bridge, a simple task for most experienced Lego builders.
In a way this set harks back to sets from a decade or two ago. There are alot of small, friendly details including things like flowers in pots, which are a welcome addition to any urban set, garbage bins and drinks in the kiosk. It is a great little set and a perfect way to add a train element to your Lego city, regardless of whether you have one of the new train sets on offer.

Jettrain (HighSpeed Passenger Train) $82.85 High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles The JetTrain is an experimental highspeed passenger train built by Bombardier Transportation in an attempt to make Europeanstyle highspeed service more financially appealing to passenger railways in North America. It uses the same LRCderived tilting carriages as the Acela Express trains that Bombardier sold to Amtrak in the 1990s and a similar locomotive, but instead of being powered by overhead lines as is the Acela and most other highspeed trains, it is powered by a combination of small diesel engine for low speed and turboshaft engines for high speeds.

The Passenger $12.78 David Walker, a toy manufacturer, usually made it a rule not to give lifts to stray young women. And on this occasion, with his business preoccupations and anxieties about his wife, most hitch-hikers would have forgiven him for passing them by. But this one was an extremely pretty girl in her early twenties, wearing a set of fairly new jeans and with a cheeky cap on her head; there was something innocent and appealing about her. Her face fell as she saw that he intended to ignore her signals and as he gathered speed he was left with the impression of an almost despairing disappointment. He relented at once. It was the biggest mistake of his life. When she disappears, David is caught in a sudden storm of intrigue and confusion; the picture may have been blurred, but the frame was set. And somewhere in the picture are blackmail, big money, and murder. Detective Inspector Martin Denson has only the faintest of outlines from which to discover the truth. And he has less time to do it in that he thought. |

The Excursion Train $8.74 A perplexing new case for the Railway Detective On the shocking discovery of a passenger's body on the Great Western Railway excursion train, Detective Inspector Robert Colbeck and his assistant, Sergeant Victor Leeming, are dispatched to the scene. Faced with what initially appears to be a motiveless murder, Colbeck is intrigued by the murder weapon -- a noose. When it emerges that the victim had worked as a public executioner, Colbeck realises that this must be intrinsically linked to the killer's choice of weapon. However, the further he delves into the case, the more mysterious it becomes. And when a second man is strangled by a noose on a train, Colbeck knows he must act quickly; can he catch the murderer before more lives are lost? Set in Victorian England and rich in historical detail, The Excursion Train will hold you captivated from the beginning to the end of its journey. |
