“One of the main components is 88009, the basic Powered Up Hub. The Hub has the same dimensions as the Power Functions battery box, but includes the Powered Up receiver. The good news for train builders is that this eliminates the need for allocating space for an RC receiver,... More which again should make it easier to use for train builds.”
