Format a list that can contain other lists in Powershell

I want to output a list can contain other lists in Powershell so that every list is displayed in a line of its own. I currently use -property SyncRoot but that gives empty lines and unnecessary words in the output. Sample code:

PS H:\> $l = @(1,2)
PS H:\> $l += ,@(3,4,5)
PS H:\> $l += ,@(23,42)
PS H:\> format-list -inputobject $l -property SyncRoot
1
2

SyncRoot : {3, 4, 5}

SyncRoot : {23, 42}

But I want the output to look like this:

1
2
{3, 4, 5}
{23, 42}
