Review: 60335 Train Station
Posted by FlagsNZ,In a series of reviews for this year's LEGO City train sets, I take a look at 60335 Train Station today.
It has been four years since the release of the last series of City trains. With two City trains released this year, read on to see whether this train station adds play value to your modern train diorama.
Summary
60335 Train Station, 907 pieces.
£69.99 / $99.99 / €79.99 | 7.7p/11.0c/8.8c per piece.
Buy at LEGO.com »
A brightly coloured train station which looks great in your ever expanding LEGO City train network.
- Inclusive group of Minifigures
- Bright, fresh colour scheme
- Modern, contemporary design
- Easy to follow instructions
- Minor gap in one vehicle
The box
The front of the box shows the train station being repaired with a utility truck on the rails. A blue bus waits at the rail crossing.
This target age for this set starts at seven years old.
The images on the back of the box shows some of this set's play features.
Instructions
The instructions (and sticker sheet) come in one sealed bag.
The instructions are divided up into three booklets
- One booklet for the utility truck and trailer
- One booklet for the bus, and
- One booklet for the train station
Stickers
There is one sticker sheet with the usual set of stickers found on the LEGO train station.
In addition, there is some new advertising for the Fresh Brand 60347 Grocery Store.
Parts
The 906 parts for this set come in eight numbered bags.
The Road Plate and Rail Ramp come in one perforated bag. The four straight rail parts are loose in the box.
Rail ramp
This set includes two rail ramps. This part has only appeared in one other set and is a useful tool to re-rail your trains and wagons onto the tracks.
This part should be included in more City train sets.
Unexpected parts
Sometimes the LEGO Group design an utterly unexpected part: Enter Plate 1x1x2/3 into the inventory.
At first, I thought, "what is wrong with two 1x1x1/3 plates." And then I realised that this part had a 318 hole in it. So maybe this new part will add new building options.
Minifigures
There are six Minifigures in this set.
- City train controller
- City train platform guard
- Cyclist
- Utility truck driver
- Female customer with ticket
- Young boy
The Dark Turquoise uniforms of the City Train employees are new for 2022 and seen in this set and 60337 Express Passenger Train, both released this year.
The cyclist's clothing is new: the torso and legs are unique prints, and only two LEGO Minifigures have that particular hairstyle. His Bright Yellow bicycle has only been seen in two sets.
The utility truck driver's high vis vest and hard hat have only been seen in two sets.
The female customer's head is a new part. Her clothing is new parts. She is wearing an argyle-styled knitted top, and her trousers are a new print, too.
The young boy's psychedelic torso is a new print.
Four Minifigures have an alternate face print.
One feature in the line-up of Minifigures in this set that I want to focus on is the man with a hearing aid.
The utility truck driver's printed head includes a hearing aid in his left ear.
In a recent statement where the LEGO Group outlines its policy of inclusiveness, they specifically address people with disabilities:
"The LEGO Group has joined as a member of the UK organisation, Business Disability Forum, to help understand how best to support colleagues with a disability or long-term condition."
The printed Minifigure head with the hearing aid does raise a few points, though:
- Minifigures don't have visible ears, and
- Due to miniaturisation, modern hearing aids are very discreet.
However, my overarching comment on this topic is this: please look after your hearing; loss of hearing is gradual and permanent.
The build
Building the Train Station is divided into four distinct sub-builds:
- Bags 1 and 2 - the utility truck and trailer
- Bags 3 and 4 - the bus
- Bags 5, 6, 7, and 8 - the train station and road crossing
Bags 1 and 2
Bag 1 builds a utility truck.
The utility truck has a trailer with a portaloo.
Someone forgot to flush the loo.
Utility vehicles that primarily work on train infrastructure have small train wheels, so they can also 'drive' on the rails.
The utility truck and trailer are on the rails.
Bags 3 and 4
Bag 3 builds the chassis of the Azur[e] blue bus.
Bag 4 completes the bus.
On the back of the bus is an adverting banner for the Fresh chain of Grocery Stores.
The Fresh logo includes a stylised letter E that looks similar to one of LEGO's leaf parts.
This same leaf design appears on 40320 Plants from Plants set.
LEGO is working towards replacing oil-based plastics with sustainably sourced options.
By 2030 the LEGO Group intends to use sustainable materials in all its core products and packaging.
You can read more about this set and goal here.
There is an ingeniously-built cycle rack at the back of the bus.
Bags 5, 6 and 7
Bag 5 sees the start of the Train Station's foundations.
Bag 6 sees some platform structures appearing.
The Fresh brand Grocery Store is sponsoring the bench seat on the platform.
The Plate 2x4x1 1/3 W. Side Bow in Bright Yellowish Green (BrickLink: Lime) is seen on the ATM for the first time.
There is a modern, contemporary tiled artwork at the entrance to the platform. What is not shown in this image is that this is ramp access to the platform.
A ticket office counter and a café are accessed once you are on the platform.
The schematic train map on the wall is the same map found on the small suburban platform of 60337 Express Passenger Train.
Someone has lost their loved pet cat. It looks like several people have torn off the contact details slips. Fortunately, the loved pet has been found!
Bag 7 completes the Train Station. There are Transparent Light Blue skylights, finishing touches on the roof edges and a City Train control tower added.
The Plate 4x4 W. 4 Knobs, seen on the City Train logo above the tower, appear for the first time in Bright Bluish Green (BrickLink: Dark turquoise).
The City Train control tower's interior is complete with a coffee mug!
There is a tree and bike rack at the end of the platform.
There is a digital readout on the platform. The next train to the Town Centre will depart in 2 minutes.
The Plate 1xX1 W/Vertical Holder appears in Bright Yellowish Green for the first time.
Bag 8
Bag 8 builds the rail crossing and barrier arms.
The completed model
The station is complete with tracks, rail ramps and a road crossing.
Overall opinion
This is a comprehensive, modern City train station with a contemporary feel.
I am sure this train station will enhance your current LEGO train layout.
There was one feature, however, that I noticed early on: the gap in the right-front wheel arch of the blue bus.
If LEGO can produce new parts like Plate 1x1x2/3, they could just as quickly have a reverse cheese slope! It could even be called Roof Tile 1x1x2/3 Inv.
The Route 43 bus waits at the level crossing as the 60337 Express Passenger Train arrives at the station.
A panoramic view of these two sets combined.
Easy to follow instructions
I would like to comment on the modern format of LEGO instructions.
Like many of the readers of these Brickset articles, I also have a nostalgic view of a simpler time with LEGO, including instructions with fewer building steps and more parts per step.
I have the following thoughts for you to consider, though:
- The colour palette was limited to only a select few primary and secondary colours.
- LEGO models were, by and large, studs up only; most SNOT techniques and associated parts are recent innovations.
Modern LEGO sets include a broader range of colours and more complex building techniques.
Two innovations have appeared in recent instruction manuals:
- There is a starburst graphic when a build is completed, and
- A Minifigure progress graphic: as the build progresses, the Minifigure moves further to the right.
Combining all of this, and taking into account that these LEGO City sets have been designed for children aged from seven years, I feel as if the instructions are easy to follow.

The ‘doubledecker’ plate with hole has been a around for a while now. It is used a lot in the new Icons Castl
That bus looks pretty good actually, but why the cycle rack? I've never seen that before on a bus in real life.
I like this train station, but I feel like, Lego's really getting their use out of that new teal colour, this year.
I really like the station, one of nicer ones for sure, but feel that a significant part of the cost goes on the bus. Would have preferred if they'd launched the station for, say, £50 and the bus as a separate set for £30.

It was news for me too (and I'm Dutch, you'd say cycle racks on buses would be quite common over here!), but a friend of mine lived in the US for a while, and apparently they're quite common in some (not all) regions over there!
I googled for 'cycle rack on bus', and I found several images of buses with cycle racks on the front or back! Blew my mind! :D
@Tc99m
That's odd... thanks for the info anyway.
I'm Dutch too btw (:
So glad to see that rail ramp part finally return. It’s baffling to me that such a useful piece had heretofore only been available in one Hidden Side set, of all things.
This is going to seem strange, but im throwing it out there in case anyone else feels the same. Two things put me off this set. One was the glass building, it just seems more like a bus stop than a train station. And the other is the portaloo. I just dont want a toilet in my Lego collection.
In Miami they have bike racks on the front of the buses: https://www.alamy.com/stock-photo-miami-floridaomni-bus-stationmetrobusbicyclebicyclingridingbikingriderbikemass-139858326.html
I'm not sure I'd want to put a £5k road bike on one!
Every urban bus system I’ve seen in the USA has bike racks on the buses, either on the front or on the back.
Good comprehensive review of a very solid set.

In Holland, we travel by bike to avoid the need to travel by bus and vice versa. However, in our tiny country, travel distances are equally tiny so I don't see the need for those over here. The Dutch are quite fond of taking their foldable bikes (free of charge) on public transport however. Hmmmm.... a foldable LEGO bicycle... now THAT is a challenge for a parts designer.

A folding bicycle sounds like it would be an interesting technic set! With gears, steering, and folding mechanism...
Not only did someone forget to flush the toilet, it's also out of toilet paper! LEGO are really recreating the disgusting porta potty experience...

You're obviously not a Lego Friends fan then.

I usually see them mounted on the front of the bus.
This is probably the 4th or 5th port-a-potty I recall in the City series.
The bar has been set. How soon before Lego adds trans yellow tile to make public loos even more real
I would love to see a picture of the two station platforms combined into one long - I believe they were designed for that option…
Hello, thanks for the review.
The gap just before the front wheel is a common issue on some 6-wide vehicles, it is partly fixed by adding a 6x1x1 inverted roof tile (desing 52501), but I'm affraid it has never been produced in azure colour.
Thanks for another nice thorough review! I like the side step to highlight the plants set.
Even though there is a gap the bus still looks great.
Speaking of gaps, it would have been nice if they had given a similar roof to 60347 .
Seems like a solution that would have looked good and also let the light in.
I also like station design. It can easily be made into a bigger one.

Port-a-potties are magical.
I entered one once and I didn't have to go until I got home.
Another Dutch guy over here.
Very happy with the public transport in the Netherlands.
New word today: portaloo. LOL. I love the station and its modern look, and especially the roof with the skylight. I think it’s fantastic.

All the buses in my town have bike racks in the front. It's convenient. It's not used much. I use this feature maybe once a year; it's nice to have it when you need it. Getting caught in an afternoon snow storm, for example. Buses have no trouble getting through 5cm of snow.

F, I mean gosh no.
Great review @FlagsNZ! I'll probably buy this set to add to my city.
I only spotted one issue: the bus route is, obviously, 43, not 46 like you wrote.
Sorry for the nitpicking...
@saltytbone said:

It's already been done. I can't remember which set includes it but it's already a thing.

The review is about the whole set.
Maybe I've watched too many FBI/police procedurals, but that new hearing aid print looks like it would also work great as an agent's earpiece. Lego is all about using the same pieces in different ways, so would it be fair for the head to represent an undercover agent in one case and a normal person with occupational hearing loss in another?
A very good looking station, which will definitely benefit from combining multiple copies (especially as I suspect the passenger train will often be bought as a pair, so will need a bit more platform space).
Agghhh I love the railcrossing, it works great great with the new roadplates.
I still don't like the new roadplates (off to grumpy corner)
Rail rams are great and will be a pain. lego will either put them in to many sets or to few. Likely train fans will need a new bin to store them all.
Ty all for explaining the cycling rack.
@BigDaddy89 said:
"That bus looks pretty good actually, but why the cycle rack? I've never seen that before on a bus in real life."
Here in the US - at least in Cleveland where I live - we have bike racks on the fronts of our buses. This seems like an acceptable substitute, given the limitations and distorted proportions of the Lego system.
Another quick 'fun' fact, the number 43 bus serves the route between Billund and Veije, where a lot of LEGO employees live, so I am sure that is why the number 43 was chosen for this bus.
@CapnRex101
Thank you, Sheldon. XD
@FlagsNZ
Great review, I enjoyed it very much, thanks. I'm still baffled on the rail ramp's function, though. What is its use?
EDIT Ok I think I got it: to enable the utility truck to get on/off the tracks?
I like the station and even though I don't have space for a rail layout in my city I quite like the idea of having a station... if I get this I might have to MOC a small suburban train (unpowered) which is a more likely stopper at this little station than the high speed express train.
I'm not sure why the cyclist is wearing an apron, it doesn't seem very practical?
Also I think they should have managed a few more parts and a suitable sticker for a bus stop at the station.
Oh my god, the lost cat flyer returns! It originally appeared in 60321 where the cat (and its kittens) were in danger at the burning sardine factory. I love this new sticker confirming that that story has a happy ending!
In general this set is very nice. I love the vibrant colors and the thoughtful accessibility features.
I couldn’t agree more that it is high time that LEGO produced an inverted 1x1 cheese slope.
This set is nice, but I like 60050 much better. My favorite part about this set, though, is the Miami art deco vibe I get from it; not so much from the build but from the colors. It just screams Miami.

it's a common thing in Switzerland too. Very useful if you wanna go biking in to the mountains.
I like this new policy from Lego. Without printed ears the hearing aids still look good imho. and help to understand what they are for. with printed ears it would be a mess.
"At first, I thought, "what is wrong with two 1x1x1/3 plates.""
21331 is what's wrong ;)
As for this set, I wish it had been split into several sets. There's way too much going on. You don't need a bus in a train station set. Especially when there's not even a bus stop to go with it. A 4-wide car would've been a nice way to populate the road without adding so much bulk to the set. A bus ought to have been its own set.
Very nice set and review! RE inverted cheese slope: that is, to me, the great Lego part mystery; why have they not created this element? Not a complaint; it's just strange.
Pretty good review of a pretty good set! Easily the best City station in the last couple of years! Oh wait....
All jokes aside, all of the builds seem good, nothing spectacular but perfectly fine for a 7+ set. I agree that they could have done without the bus and have made it cheaper, but as it is now it does seem quite decent value. The truck and toilet are a bit weird but I like it. And they make sense for such a set with just a bit of track, it adds a lot of play value.
That said, this would have been a perfect opportunity to include a dual-mode vehicle (DMV) in Lego: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z1iK6DVbqTc
The bus is amazing. I'm really tempted by the set just for that!
@FlagsNZ,
RE:

The utility truck driver's printed head includes a hearing aid in his left ear.
---More than likely its an earpiece for the two way radio. When working in noisy environments you would have a dedicated earpiece rather than rely on hearing anything over the speaker.
@tne328
I agree, it would fit in a security guard scenario as any conversations between officers should remains "private" for security reasons.
Either way its Lego, so we can use our imagination and make it anything we want :)
Nice review!
I'm tempted, but it feels too 'City modern.' It's like all City sets seem the same whether its a police, fire, school, home, train- too much blue glass. Too lazy for the exorbitant prices.
Also, I don't think my 8-wide Lambo and Ferrari are making it through the crossing. First world problems. KKK would understand, though.

I think its fun. Dont want it? Sell it...
I am unhappy that new railwayman torso doesn't have the train logo printed anywhere
The addition of the vehicles is nice, but unneeded. If I'm buying a train station, I want all bricks to be part of the train station. The bus is not really needed. Omitting the bus could've taken the price down or just leave us with a much richer and larger station.

bike racks on buses are, ironically, only useful where very few people cycle.
I do not know, this station is bit simple for me. I would prefer much more complex buliding and less vehicles, but we are blessed that the TLG has designed a new train station at all...

I live in NZ (Rolleston), and we definitely have bike racks on the front of our bus. Means people can catch a bus into Christchurch city, and then cycle onto wherever they want to go.

No.
Bike racks on the outside of buses are not currently approved by the DVSA for use in the uk. We have tried a bus with bike trailer in Suffolk but it didn’t catch on.
The gorgeous colour scheme, mural and greenery made this a 'must have' from the moment I saw it. Saying that, I'm waiting on a discount as I don't need the vehicles (though they are good).
I agree with the comment about the train uniforms lacking the logo. I suppose on the flip side it does make them more versatile for use elsewhere. They could make good torsos for staff of the City of Lanterns monorail, as they match the rail colour.
This review just confirms my decision to buy this set assuming I can find one at a discount.
The bus gap was an issue on 60154 as well. Interesting that they haven't solved this in five years.
It's nice that the bus seems to be wheelchair accessible, even though the set doesn't include a wheelchair.

It's been a few years since I visited, but my first thought seeing this set was that feels like a playset version of the Vejle station.
How many Lego fans and employees have come from elsewhere in DK and Europe by train and transfered to the 43...
@TheOtherMike said:
"It's nice that the bus seems to be wheelchair accessible, even though the set doesn't include a wheelchair."
While on the surface the intent is to have you pair this set with the Express Passenger Train, something else we can take away from this is that it's important to make things accessible from the get-go even when there aren't disabled people (or really anyone who might need it) around just yet because they may show up later. Accessibility should not be an afterthought or something you add only after you're told that your facilities are inaccessible. Of course, it's not possible to anticipate and accommodate every possibility but it's not that difficult to cover the basics as long as you design with that in mind.
Nice Brickbeard's Bounty cushions. : )
One thing I was wondering: is the station platform the exact same height as the small platform from 60337? Can you easily connect that to it as an extension without other modifications?
It's obviously still way too short for that half train, but it would nevertheless be an improvement.

Yep, they're the same height and even have about the same ramp and tree construction! The only major difference is that the 1x4 tiles underneath 60337's platform are Bright Yellowish Green (lime) instead of Dark Green (classic green).
Good review, an interesting set of figures and the builds look alright, though I feel the trailer is a slight fail in that it doesn't have a 'road' setting.
As for the hearing aid, I see the traditional 'box behind the ear' type quite often, so I think it's fine for a minifig to have a distinct one. The bigger ones tend to be a bit cheaper from what I've seen, and hearing aids are not cheap.

Sounds like the bus in the set needs to be modded to be a DMV! I am not nearly expert enough, so whoever does it, share pics

It's been done in the Hidden Side set 70435 Newbury Abandoned Prison. That one is also an abandoned prison loo. And a haunted one too. Gross!
Nice train station by the way. I love the look of the mural and the colors look nice and cozy, especially the brickwork and greens. Could have done without the bus, but I guess it's good that one is on the current market again.

I wear box behind the ear type hearing aids as these are the ones provided by the NHS in the UK so are the most prevalent ones here, if I wanted smaller less noticeable ones I would have to purchase them myself.
I may buy this set just for that Minifigure head but will probably just bricklink it.

The buses in the portion of the country where I live have them in the front.
As someone mentioned, there is only one or two spots; so not very useful in a location where many cyclists would want to use it.
Also a bit surprised there is no bus driver.
Thanks for the great review. Have been wondering how the platforms line up with the new double doors?......as they open outwards, is there a significant gap to mind here?
I can see they are trying to add variety with all the side builds, but these could all be sold separately to either reduce the price or make the station larger and the inside look a bit less empty. Especially the cafe where some seats and croissants would be nice but there doesn't seem to be enough room.

The whole point of a train is that it serves as long distance transit, so a bus can act as short distance transit.
Adding cars to the mix will absolutely destroy your urban area and make the whole city MUCH more dangerous for humans.
