The advantage of the new power sets are that they are remote control and without wires. Basically you get a battery box, an IR receiver and the motor. It also supports multiple channels so you can with a big layout control multiple loco's independently. Of course the one downside is its battery powered, but hey you can't have everything 
While we're on the subject of Lego, here's one for Super and his Disney themed new layout for his grand-daughter; Disney Castle
Now if you think the train sets are expensive make sure to take a breath after looking at the above, although I suspect AC probably has 5 on pre-order already
