Christmas Train Ride Reviews
Playing with Bricks
“Trains are always fun - and while this set doesn't offer a load of play value, for it's price there is quite a bit here for kids to mess around with. For adults, you can't really beat the set for the money... If only LEGO had included printed 1x1 ticket tiles instead, this... More might have been a perfect small set.”
Little Brick Root
“This is a fine little set. It hits the sweet spot of holiday decorations and includes classic tropes like the miniature holiday train. In addition to making a fine element of a Christmas display, this is a great parts pack (6¢ per piece), though all those wheels might be a... More bit excessive!”
