I just did a quick skim of the press release regarding the station and the batteries.
If you don't use the AC adapter, you have to use 10 x AA batteries for the station. The station has the speed sensor and voice announcements when the train reaches the scale speed of 500km/h.
They also aim to sell 20000 sets within one year.
Note: I just recalculated the price for the set using the current exchange rates.
Set = USD $305 [excludes shipping]
Rail expansion (2 x curve) = USD $17.50 [excludes shipping]
Rail expansion (2 x straight) = USD $17.50 [excludes shipping]
The set coincides with the new world record of 603km/h they recently set with the real L0 Linear Liner.
