Summary
The add-on is certainly only something for model railroad freaks, enthusiasts, and confirmed playmates, but then the whole thing really has its appeal. You don’t have to switch it on all the time and let it drive, it’s enough to have the feeling that you could if you wanted to.
Thus, the assessment remains: a special case for special users. Therefore, this time there is a small video of me as a summary instead of many words, because images have their own language:
Whether the entry-level price of well over 300 Euros for the case and drive kit is really worth it is, of course, always a matter of opinion and taste. But even the case alone without motor and rails has its appeal as a decorative HTPC, and being different definitely justifies the rather steep price in my opinion.
With a few minor exceptions, the train and its rails are excellently finished, and the paint in particular is tough and robust enough to withstand trips like mine without complaint. Edgy gravel, crooked iron sills, old grease, a nasty drizzle and even cold didn’t matter, the part still works after a comprehensive cleaning. Sure, it’s more of a feasibility study by Lian Li to show what they are capable of with aluminum in general and as a company in particular. Let’s put it this way: Experiment successful, testers enthusiastic, locomotive still rolling and the HTPC also does what is expected of it. There is no need to write more about it and the cold has also gone away in the meantime.
My thanks also go to the Saxon Railway Museum e. V. at this point, An der Dresdner Bahnlinie 130c in 09131 Chemnitz and the dedicated staff who keep this museum and the exhibits alive as enthusiasts with much sacrificed free time. A visit is worthwhile in any case and who is still looking for a worthwhile destination for the children: here you will certainly not be disappointed.
