Love the review! Wow the music and sounds are really good and the lighting. Thanks for doing a review I don't think anyone else has done an indepth review of this item. The only thing is the holes by the drummer they should have plugged them up. But wow the music while running looks great
Thanks! I think the first wagon review we've done too. It's a bit more unique so felt it deserved something special. We've also managed to customise the music too which adds to the enjoyment.
For us, it was worth the uniqueness. It was -expensive- (especially given we mostly buy second-hand locos on eBay around a similar or less price point) but given what it offered we were happy to go for it. Already planning the Christmas tunes!
Am amazed how much this costs now is certainly not worth £350 they're asking for it now, was bad enough when I paid £280, if you get any luck with playing your own music on it, do a follow-up video, lgb/Marklin's email help was next to useless never did get it to work.
Yeah, it was steep - by far the most we've paid for any of our stock (and more than many of our locos). I was tinkering with the idea of trying to build my own version but feared it would end as another incomplete icon on the todo list. Plus, Nikki gave the green light so we just bit the bullet. Actually, I made a video on that! I worked out the problem after a couple of days. Will post it shortly.
Fun wagon and great review. Nice to see you both in the video.
Thanks, Rob! Yeah, it was one of the lighter contributions! It was nice to have Nikki infront of the camera too :)

Tempted. Very tempted. Not too bad a price, given how much the none DCC ordinary coach versions of this retail for.

I thought 009 was expensive 😂😢
Yeah, this was definitely a splurge!
