The set contains a train, a platform and eleven minifigures, seven males and four females. Each minifigure comes with the classic smily face head piece. Engine: The set comes with a large grey engine, which also has red, blue and white lines on the sides. It can be rebuilt into an alternative model. The front contains the cab, which is a coloured black piece with a window on it. Also, the engine has venting details such as vents and small ladders. Each side has four doors for entry. The engine is connected to the train cars by two magnetic couplers. The engine also contains a Train motor. On the top of the regular version, there are several more vents and one black pantograph.On the top of the alternate version,there are two pantographs. Train Cars: The set also comes with two train cars.
In the regular version, it comes with one standard passenger car along with another engine in the back. The train car had one door on each end of the passenger car on both sides. The colour scheme was the same as the engine's. In the alternative model, there are two train cars, one passenger car and one cargo car on the end. The passenger car wasn't much different than the one in the regular model, except that there were double doors in the middle of the train car, on both sides. The cargo car had a small shed on the front to store cargo, and a little open area on the back. Platform: The platform was a long baseplate with several chairs, a few lights, and a schedule. The regular model had four chairs lined up along the back of the platform, two lights, and also two railings. There was also a schedule on one of the ends. The alternative model has three chairs along the back, two lights, and the schedule near the entry ramp. The other end had a small stairway. Minifigures: The set contains eleven minifigures.
The first one is the train engineer, who has a blue body and a red hat that the white version of is often seen on police officers from the Police subtheme. The second is a worker with blue clothes, and is seen pushing a cart with luggage. Another has a white shirt with a red line and two blue ones, and a blue cap. He is seen with a black bike. One other has a blue shirt and is on a red bike. It comes with several other figures.7938 LegoVan LegoCity 7938City 1257938 PassengerTrain 7938Lego City TrainTrain PowerTrain TracksForwardLego City - Passenger Train 7938, The Lego City - Passenger Train 7938 is super fast!

Last Christmas I built an extended Emerald Night train to run around the tree. To get it to work I had to add a second Power Functions motor. I tuned both IR receivers to the same frequency and slowly applied power by keeping the IR remote within the line of sight of both receivers at the front and the back. The major disadvantage to this was it was difficult to sync the two engines because line of sight was not assured. I'd like to build a larger train this year and would like to find a better way to link the motors. I've think that putting one motor in the back helps with weight distribution, although this idea may be flawed. What the best way to link multiple Power Functions motors together without having to rely on multiple IR receivers? Below are some photos that provide more detail about the train in question. Front engine, standard Emerald Night (10194-1): Rear power car, custom (MOC): If the motors are far apart, you could simply connect them both to the same receiver using some extension cables.
To the best of my knowledge, there is no problem connecting two motors on the same input of one IR receiver. If you're using Technic motors instead of train motors, as Zhaph said, you'll probably want to have them coupled through a differential so that no motor can stress the other. That's the standard way of doing it in any Technic creation, and since it effectively adds the two input speeds (from the motors), it means you can create some variation in speed very easily. I did that to power a PF-modified 7740 engine with two medium motors when the only remote available was the simple on/off one: one motor had its speed reduced to 1/3, so the range of available speeds where 4/3 (both motors on), 3/3 (regular motor on, 1/3 motor off), 2/3 (regular motor forward, 1/3 motor reverse), 1/3 (1/3 motor only), 0, and the same in reverse. Was awfully complicated to use the remote to go from one speed to the next, though. And then LEGO produced a speed-control remote and I didn't look back to that idea again.)
I put 2 train motors in the red cargo train and it worked well though I didn't add cars to the back . . . my goal was to get it to go up an incline so it could go from the "industrial area" around the tree to, well, a table, where I setup the city. I tried adding the passenger train motor car to the back but that didn't work . . . the weight of the motor cars was too much to go up the incline even without any other cars. Only two motors in the engine car of the red cargo train ever worked and even then it couldn't pull up all of the cars . . . only two little ones or one bigger one would ever make it up. The problem with adding cars wasn't that the motors stalled (which was the problem when there was only one motor), it was that they started slipping. So then I thought I would add some weight . . . but of course that didn't work because more weight made the motors stall. Learned a lot about physics that week. Digging around a bit, I found the reference I mentioned: Jason Stienhurst's LEGO Big Boy Mechanicals on Flicker
