“The set comes with eleven minifigures, and 768 pieces. Two models can be made using the parts from this set. The first consist of two locomotive-wagons with a person-wagon between them. One locomotive has a bar and the other one is for sleeping and baggage/bicycles. The... More second one has a pure locomotive with one person-wagon and a baggage cart. Both have a short railway station.”

“Being a '90s set, the train basically builds itself. The entire build cost me two hours and a half (I lost quite some time simply admiring the set) and was extremely straightforward with no surprises at all, but I need to admit it has its charm. The exterior is simply... More amazing.”

“The Metroliner is a sort of culmination of the various European and new North American trains in service between major urban centers. Another nice touch is the small single 9v lamp, connected to a yellow waveguide at the front for headlights.”
