duckyruiz Posted March 3, 2012 Posted March 3, 2012 The 9V trains like the Santa Fe series(10020, 10133, 10022, 10025, etc...) are valuable. Most sold for $40 new and now sell for $250+++++. Quote
force392 Posted March 7, 2012 Posted March 7, 2012 The 9V trains like the Santa Fe series(10020, 10133, 10022, 10025, etc...) are valuable. Most sold for $40 new and now sell for $250+++++.I agree. The 9V subtheme of Lego trains is the way to go. Trains like the Emerald Night 10194 and the new Maersk Train 10219 are still available at reasonable prices. EMERALD NIGHT http://www.brickpicker.com/bpms/set.cfm?set=10194-1 MAERSK TRAIN http://www.brickpicker.com/bpms/set.cfm?set=10219-1 I really love the Maersk train. Love the color. The whole look.

Spartikis Posted May 4, 2012 Posted May 4, 2012 Emerald night is the only one i own and probably will never own any others. Maersk is a nice looking trains, i own for investment purpose only. Quote
JesusLovesLegos Posted May 4, 2012 Posted May 4, 2012 Emerald night is the only one i own and probably will never own any others. Maersk is a nice looking trains, i own for investment purpose only.Trains appreciate very well. The Emerald Night and Maersk will do very well in the secondary market. The older Sante Fe trains have appreciated very very well, but they might be too pricey now to buy. MSRP on those sets was $40. They now sell for $300+ MISB. Quote
M4x18 Posted September 4, 2012 Posted September 4, 2012 Every time I look at the Maersk Train it looks more and more attractive. Quote
tigereyes5811 Posted September 4, 2012 Posted September 4, 2012 The Maersk is a nice train. It will definitely do well in the secondary. I have 2 of them. I also like the emerald night. Just haven't got around to pick it up! Can't go wrong with that classy old feel that it has. I'm feeling the Ghost Train also from Monster Fighters!!!! Just looks so dam cool. I'm growing toward that theme a lot now. Something about them Monsters!!! Quote
fxdl96 Posted October 12, 2012 Posted October 12, 2012 Every time I look at the Maersk Train it looks more and more attractive.I own one and its a very fun build plus it looks awesome in real life. Quote
Wizkid23 Posted January 20, 2013 Posted January 20, 2013 Does everyone think the new Horizon Express will be a solid investment???? Quote
stephen_rockefeller Posted January 20, 2013 Posted January 20, 2013 It will be......but not for a while. Quote
glucapg Posted January 20, 2013 Posted January 20, 2013 I've bought 10219 maersk train andare 7939 cargo train Do I've to buy either 7938 train at 80 Quote
Spartikis Posted January 21, 2013 Posted January 21, 2013 Does everyone think the new Horizon Express will be a solid investment???? Yeah you have a year or two before needing to pick up any of the Horizon Express sets, i would focus on the maersk train for now Quote
stephen_rockefeller Posted January 21, 2013 Posted January 21, 2013 You can still pick up an emerald night for just under 200.00 cool train and the price should head north from there. Quote
Spartikis Posted January 21, 2013 Posted January 21, 2013 You can still pick up an emerald night for just under 200.00 cool train and the price should head north from there. Yeah that is surprising, its hands down the best steam train lego has made but it really hasent seen the ROI i expected for a whole year of retirement. Quote
Rich B Posted January 21, 2013 Posted January 21, 2013 Yeah that is surprising, its hands down the best steam train lego has made but it really hasent seen the ROI i expected for a whole year of retirement. I agree it's the best steam train Lego has ever made, and don't worry it will contionue to increase in value over the next year or two! Quote
