Recently i have posted an article about the new 2011 Lego 10219 Maersk Train set last week, and i have discovered new information to confirm my observation of what will be in this new set. The first thing i want to talk about, is whether it will be motorized or not, and the answer is no the train wont be motorized at all and you have to buy all the accessories for it. I was really hoping that at least a few of the accessories would come with it, like the train motor or the remote control, but it doesn’t have it. The set itself is sort of a creator set, it wasn’t meant to actually run, but more likely a replica of the real life cargo train from the Maersk company. The train with all three cars will measure in at 92 centimeters, or 36 inches in length, three minifigures, 2 full color instructions with the history of previous Maesrk Lego sets. The set will cost 199.99 in US Dollars, and 91.99 in US pounds If you need the list again to motorize your train, here are the Lego catalog numbers and names:
Lego Power Functions 8878: Power Functions Rechargeable Battery Box#8887: Transformer 10V DC, 8884: Power Functions IR Receiver, 8879: Power Functions IR Speed Remote Control, and 88002: Power Functions Train Motor!
