   Discussion by CaptainBasterd · July 2013 · Home› Building and Techniques

   Hi everyone, I'm new here so apologies if this has been discussed elsewhere, but I recently purchased the Horizon Express set (10233). I was just wondering exactly what pieces I need to enable to power functions for it? The box says I need 8878, 8887, 8884, 8879, 88002 and 8870. Are all of these sets essential to get it…

   #5001925 Horizon Express Kit is currently on sale at the official Lego shop, €234.49 down from €246.93 (this seems an odd RRP). Haven't seen this set on sale here in Belgium before, and I've never seen it on eBay or Amazon UK/FR either. http://shop.lego.com/en-BE/Horizon-Express-Kit-5001925 Edit: I see what they've done,…

   I found you can use - 8884 - 8882 - 8878 - 8887 - 8867 - 8870 - 8879 but doesn't say 8293. Also which of above is a minimum to motorise the train ? Thanks

   There are instructions for using Power Functions in the train contained in the instructions for it. The online copy of the instructions is on the page for it here: #10254 but I've also linked it directly here. The instructions also tell you what you need. Basically, you need #8879, #8884, #88002 and #88000. You can use…

   I used the rechargeable battery box #8878 - yes it's more expensive, and you also need the Transformer #8887, but it has a built in speed control, so you don't need the IR receiver. And you save on batteries. (You just have to be able to catch the train when you want to stop it!)

    Unfortunately this one doesn't run on normal Lego track, unless you swap out the wheels (which is possible by changing the technic pins and wheels). If you want track, you can get power-function (non wired) track from pick a brick at $3 a piece (ugh - way too expensive), but you're better off getting it in a set like the…
