Great vid mate 👍
Thanks for the shoutout! Love to see people getting their enjoyment out of the instructions I made! 😍
You're the man!!
Good work making that remote train. I’m not a Harry Potter collector, I have no HP sets but I’ll say that if I were I’d rather have the motorized train you’ve built over the new one. For sure
Yeah, I’m in the same boat.
Thanks for the info! I am sure that many train fans will like this alternative.
The RC LEGO hagwards Express looks fantastic
The thing about the massive $500 train is that it's 12 studs wide, which means it can't make turns around standard Lego tracks. So the designers chose a larger detailed interior over remote control, because you can't have both and they wanted to bring something new to the table
I did this my self with and it works well and my hubs in the passenger car.
Oh yeah easy peasy, if anybody wants the working train set. Just get the small train it self and then add the materials ya need to order to have fun with the train set. I got mine a while ago and still love it, and with this piece of info, now I can get the sets I need to order to have it working awesome ^^
thank God I ordered my kit before Bricksie posted this. just imaging how fast the online store post will post backorders for these
just wait ;)
It looks like a model train
Bricksie is the GOAT 🤘
Thanks for the very helpful video. I want to build a longer Hogwarts Express and this looks great!
this is excellent, nice work and great video. about a 3rd of the price of the collector edition, but you can have more passenger cars and motorize it on standard track, very cool.
Wow
You're much better than me. I bought two sets so I could have two carriages but you've used some of the parts from the second set to build a caboose too! I have just placed the locomotive and tender of the second set in my front-of-house display, where I have all the modulars plus some other buildings and my two mocs from the Brick Bank. One of the displays is that cool station from about a decade ago - the truncated Hogwarts train goes well with it. But now I'm heading to Rebricable to get the instructions to transform the longer train into a motorized version, thanks.
Great video keep up the good work 🎉
Now this is what I would do. I got the holiday train set 10254 over the summer and plan to power that up soon and add to my 60197 passenger train set next year with a pab order to finish the back off. Great video.
Great video 🤩🤩🤩🤩🔥
Don't lie! The Hogwarts Express that everybody ACTUALLY wants is a model with the same amount of detail as the Emerald Night and roughly the same scale. 😉
Did this myself too, love it.
Yes I so need to power mine up. ..I need another one of those $14 Doller part X2 ..
i’m looking for a way to motorize it with gears so the drive rod actually moves like it should be. just seems unrealistic to put the motor under the tender you know? not sure if this is just me lol but i mean at least it works in general lol
I love critical Bricksie.
I support you even though I live in the uk
Do you have instructions on how to build that sort of caboose car at the end?
That's so COOL man great work keep up the grind!
I'm planning on motorising this hogwarts express
Whaaaat the motorized power is coming from the tender?? The audacity! 😁
Maybe it is better to buy a cheap new motorized train like set nr 60197 for like 90usd/90eu so u got the pieces,hub and motor :P
Of course, I give a thumbs up, you not lego. Lego gets a thumbs down.
just picked mine up at a local store.. going to try to modify it a bit too look more realistic and remove the hp stuff since I'm not a fan of the franchise..
I actually really like the new Hogwarts Express. My biggest complaint is that the engine is a bit clunky looking because they decided to taper the front for some reason, even though the actual train does not taper. Lego has made other versions that can be motorized, so a shelf version that is nearly minifig scale is nice IMO.
Much better than the expensive one... :)
Wow amazing n fun
That's cool.
Hey Bricksie, what instructions did you use to build the trolley car? 2 sets is all that is needed to get the additional tender and trolley?
Personally, I think the one they released for $500 was for hardcore Harry Potter fans and diehard collectors. Plus no matter if you put the platform in front or behind the train, it ruins the set no matter what. While I like the addition of the 20 minifigs, I could see this being a major flop with the exception of diehard Potter fans who have to have everything.
i just wish i would have got the disney train set.
Imho it would be even greater if it has the carriages from the 2001/2002 sets with the double boogeys.
But pretty build nontheless!
can you motorize is with the old train motors?
Yes but you also need to find room for the IR receiver.
Thanks
You are a very good videographer.😘❤
Epic!!! Moonman bricks rules!!! I'll be adding this to my city after seeing how the new train is designed. (No offense to that guy, I believe he did what he was told to do)
The thing is with this version of the hogwarts express is that it looks to childish/inaccurate for me. So now I have the dilemma that I have to either choose for an accurate train that can't drive, or a really toyish/childish version that can at least drive,
I think that there are rebrickable instructions that mod the train to make it look better by adding parts while using the set as a base
@Legendied Yeah but that will always be more expensive, plus I really like the experience of getting brand new pieces, nicely sorted in bags with a good high quality paper instruction book. I have my own train mocs but there is just something about opening an actual lego set that gives satisfaction.
I’m going to wait a little bit longer. Someone will be able to modify the D2C version by downsizing so it will fit on standard tracks and motorizing it.
All the features the collectors set SHOULD of had
i def prefer the new collectors edition
In appearance, yeah.
@@csharp57 in everything tbh - all the proportions are amazing and the price is pretty reasonable for what you are getting
and at half the price!
thanks so much for your content can you please go back to the store y'all were at before you had to go to the hospital and she delivered. Your babies really love. That store can't think of the name of it thanks
Stay tuned 😉
Bucks? Unfortunately I don't own any pet deer. I have a husky. Will he do instead? 🤔
Everyone, really? lol
Someday Lego is going to realize that they made an error during the pandemic they got an influx of fans unfortunately they seem to be of the opinion that people want $500 dust collectors or $350 action hero bust dust collectors as a retired Lego reseller there is a small market for these sets very small but ultimately at the end of the day people need to realize Lego is a toy and they want to play with it and they want to zoom it around their Lego City table but yeah Lego seems to have lost the point
I honestly don't understand these comments. There was a niche market for larger sets, that is evident by instructions for non stable massive sets on Rebrickable that cost a fortune in bricks to make. Further, people have paid a lot for Lego before and since the pandemic, some mini figures are $2k plus. What Lego are doing, finally, is offering a range of sets to another part of the market, it doesn't replace their current line-up, they literally have 100's of play and display sets out, including a Harry Potter Train.
These sets are for a different market altogether. Honestly, I don't want a room devoted to train tracks and a city (that personally doesn't appeal to me in the slightest) and many, many people don't. Some people want large display sets, the build is fun and they look cool. This doesn't mean Lego stopped making other sets, it means they now cater to a broader market. Not sure why people feel that everything has to be for them personally, Lego sell enough sets and enough themes at a broad range of prices to suit everyone. Gatekeeping Lego is just so weird to me.
Even as a display piece, the new Hogwarts Express misses the mark. The red and brass colors are wrong, the cab is less detailed, it has stickers, and the station platform is shorter than even one single passenger car.

I attempted to this with 2 hogwarts sets and a partial realy old one then went cray and got 3 motor assembly and a single hub all Chinese and made the Loco way to long to not derail also noted tandems g the old school style top plug motors in tandem made each run at a slower speed than the preceeding so I'm still tinkering on the engineering end for what I wanted to be a realy impressive locomotive that just in practicality didn't work out and needs to be either 1 standard 2 wheel Trai. Drive or gear boxes iff an xl motor debating methodology there as I've had issues when doing across drive wheel braces with resistance and drag friction I keep playing around with a bunch of ideas that don't seem to pan out terribly well just tonight fighting which a off brand impressive locomotive well suited to motorising with a gear driven drive train that unfortunately overcame a standard m motor and dosnt lend well to space wise incorporating an xl so I've som thinking to do on that in pieces on my work table while I suspect it out
