How to Motorize the LEGO Winter Holiday Train using Powered Up!

December 14, 2019 By GJBricks Leave a Comment

Reading Time: 2 minutes

In my last video I reviewed this train and liked it a lot. In this I’ll show you how to take the parts from a LEGO City Passenger Train (60197) to provide the Powered Up components to get The LEGO Winter Holiday Train (10254) moving. And I’ll explain why I bought a whole train in the video for you.

About this LEGO Toys Video:
Buying a whole LEGO City 60197 Train Set just for the motor seems excessive and expensive. but actually, it’s ridiculously good value! Trust me, I’ll explain in the video.

This video I’ll talk you through the test and changes I’ve made to do this as well as some of the plans I have to improve it. There’s also a couple of quick clips of it going around my LEGO City.
