From Brothers Brick:
Next year promises to be a very good year for LEGO train fans with the release
of the ‘EXPERT’ set “10233 Horizon Express”. This is a very good looking
high speed train kit, most certainly based heavily on certain verions of the
French TGV. What is especially cool is that the set is designed so that buying
two (the kids will love it!) means you end up with a full two-ended set.

Thank you to Gambort (Tim Gould) for the article.
No backing loco, disappointing LEGO just when I was going to give you a second chance after the 9V system discontinuing.
