Announcing new LEGO Train set 10233 Horizon Express [News]

Next year promises to be a very good year for LEGO train fans with the release of the ‘EXPERT’ set “10233 Horizon Express”. This is a very good looking high speed train kit, most certainly based heavily on certain verions of the French TGV. What is especially cool is that the set is designed so that buying two (the kids will love it!) means you end up with a full two-ended set. I’m very impressed by all the though that’s gone into this one.

UPDATE: 10233 Horizon Expressicon is now available!
