LEGO Train 12 Volts Posted March 20, 2017 Heavy haul if you want differentiate your trains ...60098 is a nice and playable set! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
HiFish Posted March 20, 2017 The Horizen Express is based on the TGV, a very fast french train, so that fits better with the parisian restaurant :-) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lego train fun Posted March 20, 2017 But i mean second Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dr_spock Posted March 20, 2017 If you only have one Horizon Express, a second one will help complete the other end of the train. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lego train fun Posted March 21, 2017 So i should buy second horizon express ? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LegoSjaak Posted March 21, 2017 (edited) Oh yes, i would definetely buy a second set.. it does look so much more appealing, and meets the detail-level of the Parisian Restaurant much better! This one is actually with another two extra coaches... Edited March 21, 2017 by LegoSjaak Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

LegoSjaak Posted March 21, 2017 You could also let us decide.... count the votes..and there you go...: One vote for HE.. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bogdanmn Posted March 21, 2017 the Horizon Express is retired, and as such, its price will only go up with the passing of time. The cargo train is not yet retired, and most likely you will be able to find it at a hefty discount (somewhere around 120-130€). I would buy the second Horizon Express.

Lego train fun Posted March 21, 2017 So most prople said second HE so i will buy it thank you for answers Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Duq Posted March 21, 2017 I think you should also buy a Metroliner and a Cafe Corner. And paint your front door yellow. And eat more chocolate. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Elysiumfountain Posted March 30, 2017 I would have to say HE, since it would compliment the Parisian Restaurant Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ecmo47 Posted March 30, 2017 Buy a 2nd HE. You can still get one for less the MSRP of the Heavy Haul. Bricklink average price is about $170.0. https://www.bricklink.com/catalogPG.asp?S=10233-1&ColorID=0 If course you will need to invest in power supply if you intend to operate it which will drive the price up some. As a note, one PF motor will easily pull a double HE. As others have said, a double HE looks great. It is, by far, the train that gets most of the comments at the shows I go to. Here is an old photo of both the HE and the PC. DSC01071 by Scott Roys, on Flickr Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
