There are no directions for building a motor into the train.***I am the nut-job parent that you'll see in some of the other train and Lego reviews. I grew up with
Lego and returned to it when I had kids. I am terribly partial to Lego (ignore my star rating), but I'll give you the best review I can so that you can make the best decision for your kids. Our family also has a long history with the Harry Potter Lego sets, including the previous Hogwarts Express transit.My short review is that I love this set. I think it will sell like hotcakes. It is also a good value given its play potential. This is not a perfect set (more on that below), but it combines arguably the best Hogwarts Express locomotive that Lego has sold with a carriage and a station that allow for a large number of play possibilities. The station, which is split between muggle King's Cross and Platform 9 and 3/4 is the most extensive Harry Potter station they've offered. The carriage, though diminutive compared to the last Express, has a pull-off side and top so that the nicely detailed inside can serve as a play diorama. I believe that Lego designed this with the expectation that most children would not put it on tracks, and so it works just fine as a set piece for acting out various scenes from the books/movies. The train will run just fine on Lego's track, though it is not motorized nor easily motorized. This particular set with the Lupin and Dementor mini-figures, as well as the Sirius Black wanted poster, places it firmly in the third book/film.As for my longer review... Lego has had a wavering approach toward the various iterations of the Hogwarts Express that it has offered over the years. The first one (4708) was solidly a non-track train, with wheels that ran well on floors and tabletops, but not on Lego's track. The next two versions (4758 from the 9 volt era) and 4841 (from 2010 and the power functions era) were designed for running on track. The current version (75955) seems to return a little bit to the idea that this is a set piece first, and a train second. Though I'm a big Lego train fan, I think this is the right approach.First off, the locomotive finally solves the glaring problem that all of the prior Hogwarts Express engines have had: the lack of large driving wheels. If you dig through the Amazon reviews of set 4841, you'll see this called out eight years ago. Lego got it right this time. The engine is very nicely proportioned. I could stand to see it a stud or two longer, but this is clearly a substantial improvement over all the earlier models. The smokestack, steam dome, and bumpers are all closer to the actual Olton Hall locomotive. One can quibble about the simplistic side rods coming off the driver, but no one should expect an Emerald Night (set 10194) level of detail, and no one wants that level of mechanical headache in a children's toy.Moving down the train, the rest of the rolling stock shows a bit of cost cutting that is a tad depressing for the train enthusiast. However, most of these design decisions are not the kind of thing that kids care that much about. A number of examples:-Lego opted not to used magnetic couplers between the cars. They cost more, but they also come loose when kids are pulling the train around on the floor. Most children probably won't miss them. Train enthusiasts can easily upgrade. Not a bit deal.-Lego shortened the tender from the prior version. It looks out of proportion now. Again, kids aren't going to care and train people can enlarge it.-The passenger coach is shorter, lacks proper bogies (four wheel sets at each end of the car), and the nice train windows have been swapped out for more common casement windows. Again, kids aren't going to care; the two wheel sets actually help the train roll better when not used on track, and the house windows open (so you can re-enact Harry's chocolate frog making its one good hop).That said, here's what the rolling stock does well:-The side of the carriage pulls off so that you can easily act out scenes. The train car becomes a kind of movie set. The roof still lifts off like in prior sets, but the removable wall is perfect for this audience. Try running a sweets trolly through the old trains.-The inside of the passenger carriage is much better. Instead of four typical Lego chairs and pretty much nothing else, this new car has reasonably designed coach chairs along with a smooth tiled floor, all in a sharp gray-blue hue.-This carriage actually has doors at each end. The prior train had... a window.I'm on the fence about the move away from the bright yellow stripe (from 4841) to the more subdued gold stripe (of this set) across the passenger car. I don't think either one hits the mark.The station is pretty good. They've taken bits of King's Cross and bits of 9 and 3/4 and mashed them together. It is a little hard to get a trolly through from the King's Cross side due to the limited space between the magical wall and the stair case. But I think Lego struck a good balance between cost cutting (e.g. the use of larger single piece bricks) versus the careful addition of detail here and there (e.g., the change in the light fixtures between the two sides of the station, the newspaper stand, the Sirius Black poster, the use of "brick" bricks here and there). It is a toy first, but it is still carefully designed with a discerning eye toward detail.Finally, the mini-figures. My daughter, who is a serial Harry Potter reader, hates the short-leg Harry, Ron, and Hermione figures. I'm with her. The new, smaller wands are good. But we want the old figures back that have bendable legs. The short mini-figures are never, ever able to sit down properly.This train will work just fine on track. It does not, as some people have charged, hit the station bridge once it is on track. As warned at the top, there is no track in the set. You would need to purchase something like four sets of 60205 to have a functioning circuit (16 curves make a circle). If you're going the train route, you may wish to purchase a whole Lego train set just to get all the pieces. Also, if you are looking to motorize, I suggest you wait a while as Lego is phasing in a new set of motors and controllers (i.e., the Powered Up hub and motors that operate over Bluetooth).I'll revisit this review as I learn more. Cheers.

图片说明：左边是乐高列车4841（2010年的），右边乐高列车75955（2018年的）这一套不包括轨道。这一组不是机动化的。没有说明书指导如何把各个部件装成火车。我是一些坚果工作的父母，你会在其他一些火车和乐高评论中看到。我和Lego一起长大，当我有孩子的时候回到了它。我非常偏爱乐高（忽略我的星级评分），但我会给你最好的评价，以便你能为孩子做出最好的决定。我们的家人在哈利波特乐高套装中也有悠久的历史，包括之前的霍格沃茨特快列车。
我的简短回顾是我喜欢这套。我认为它会像煎饼一样卖。鉴于其发挥潜力，它也是一个很好的价值。这不是一个完美的设置（更多关于下面的内容），但它可以说是乐高与车厢和车站一起出售的最好的霍格沃茨特快机车，可以提供大量的游戏机会。该车站分为麻将王十字架和9号和3/4平台，是他们提供的最广泛的哈利波特站。与最后一款Express相比，这款马车虽然小巧，但却有一个侧面和顶部，因此内部装饰精美，可以作为戏剧立体模型。我相信乐高的设计理念是大多数孩子不会把它放在轨道上，所以它可以很好地作为一套用来表演书籍/电影中的各种场景。火车将在乐高的轨道上运行得很好，虽然它不是机动的，也不是很容易机动的。这个特别的集与卢平和摄魂怪迷你人物，以及天狼星黑通缉海报，牢牢地把它放在第三本书/电影。
至于我的长篇评论...... Lego对于多年来提供的Hogwarts Express的各种迭代采取了一种摇摆不定的方法。第一辆（4708）是坚固的非轨道列车，车轮在地板和桌面上运行良好，但在乐高的轨道上却没有。接下来的两个版本（9伏时代的4758）和4841（来自2010年和电源功能时代）专为在轨道上运行而设计。目前的版本（75955）似乎有点回归到这首先是一个定位，然后是一列火车的想法。虽然我是乐高火车的忠实粉丝，但我认为这是正确的做法。
首先，机车终于解决了以前所有Hogwarts Express发动机都存在的明显问题：缺少大型驱动轮。如果你仔细阅读4841集的亚马逊评论，你会看到八年前这个问题。乐高这次做对了。发动机的比例非常好。我可以忍受看到一两个螺柱，但这显然是对所有早期型号的重大改进。烟囱，蒸汽穹顶和保险杠都更接近实际的奥尔顿霍尔机车。人们可以对驾驶员的简单侧杆狡辩，但没有人应该期待翡翠之夜（设定为10194）的细节水平，并且没有人想要儿童玩具中的机械头痛水平。
沿着火车向下移动，其余的机车车辆显示出一些成本削减，这对于火车爱好者来说有点令人沮丧。然而，大多数这些设计决定并不是孩子们非常关心的事情。一些例子：
-Lego选择不在汽车之间使用磁耦合器。它们花费更多，但当孩子们在地板上拉火车时，它们也会松动。大多数孩子可能不会错过他们。火车爱好者可以轻松升级。没什么特别的。
-Lego缩短了之前版本的投标。它现在看起来不合比例。再一次，孩子们不会去关心和培训人们可以扩大它。
- 客车较短，缺乏适当的转向架（车的两端各有四个轮组），而且漂亮的火车车窗已被更换为更常见的平开窗。孩子们也不会在意;当不在赛道上使用时，两个轮组实际上有助于火车更好地滚动，并且房屋的窗户打开（所以你可以重新制作哈利的巧克力青蛙，使它成为一个好的跳跃）。
也就是说，这就是机车车辆的表现：
- 滑架的侧面拉开，以便您可以轻松地演出场景。火车车成了一种电影。屋顶仍然像先前的套装一样升起，但可拆卸的墙壁非常适合这些观众。尝试通过旧火车运行糖果车。
- 乘客车厢内部要好得多。这辆新车没有四把典型的乐高座椅，而是设计合理的教练椅和光滑的瓷砖地板，全部采用尖锐的灰蓝色调。
- 这辆车实际上每端都有门。先前的火车有......窗户。
关于从明亮的黄色条纹（从4841）到乘坐汽车的更柔和的金色条纹（这一组）的移动，我正站在栅栏上。我认为任何一个都没有达到标记。
车站很不错。他们采取了一些国王十字架和9和3/4的比特并将它们混合在一起。由于魔法墙和楼梯间之间的空间有限，从King's Cross侧进入一个小车是有点困难。但我认为乐高在成本削减（例如使用更大的单块砖）与在这里和那里仔细添加细节之间取得了很好的平衡（例如，车站两侧灯具之间的变化，报纸架，天狼星黑色海报，在这里和那里使用“砖”砖。它首先是玩具，但它仍
然经过精心设计，注重细节。最后，迷你人物。我的女儿是哈利波特的连续读者，讨厌短腿哈利，罗恩和赫敏的人物。我和她在一起。新的，较小的魔杖是好的。但我们希望那些有着弯曲腿的老人物。简短的迷你人物永远无法正常坐下。这列火车在轨道上运行得很好。正如一些人所指责的那样，它并没有在赛道上的时候撞到了站桥。如在顶部警告，该组中没有轨道。您需要购买四组60205才能拥有正常运行的电路（16条曲线形成一个圆圈）。如果您乘坐火车路线，您可能希望购买一整套乐高火车，以获得所有碎片。此外，如果您正在寻求机动化，我建议您稍等一下，因为乐高正在逐步推出一套新的电机和控制器（即通过蓝牙运行的上电集线器和电机）。随着我了解更多信息，我将重温这篇评论。干杯。
