Good toy for child or adult
By M. Parikh
I purchased this toy for my 5 year old son. We worked together building each of the vehicles over 3 days. The remote control train is great but just going in a circle got boring. Wish there were more accessories to build for kids to build.

Well made, fun to play with
By R. Asphaug
Another great Lego set! The kids have loved it.Very nice that each train car is separately packaged, so the kids can build one at a time over a number of days.

Lego's 2006 Cargo Train
By R. Ferguson
Lego delisted this set in late 2009. This set and #7897 were the of the "RC" generation of trains. The prior generation was the 9 volt series which used electrified track. The next (and current) generation is the Power Functions (PF) series which uses updated components (a new motor and new infrared signaling devices). The battery compartment and infrared receiver of the RC generation is a single, large unit; this is unique to 7897 and 7898. Battery power comes from AA batteries. It is not out of the question to modify the old trains with PF elements (to varying degrees of elegance). 9 volt, RC and PF all use the same gauge track, but the 9 volt track is electrified (RC and PF can still use it). Lego still calls its track "RC."This set is modeled in the style of a small European cargo train. The set has fantastic playability. It includes an engine (similar to a Deutsche Bahn Class E44), a crane car, a flat car, box car, hopper, small freight truck, forklift, red sports car, and five mini-figures. The set includes two sets of points (switches), twenty pieces of curved track and eight pieces of straight track. The set requires only batteries to be up and running. Even though this set has been superseded by a newer cargo train, it is still one of the best cargo trains that Lego has produced.
