Real steam they can watch rise

Steam rising from the locomotive as it rounds the track

Squeeze a few drops of plain water into the smokestack from the bottle in the box, flip the switch, and white vapour puffs out as the locomotive rolls around your tree. Turn the lamps off and the headlight shines straight through it, while the passenger car glows warm yellow from inside. You'll hear the chug and the whistle, see the steam drift up through the tree lights, and feel the room go quiet when the kids lie down on the rug to watch.

WILL IT DERAIL? WILL IT DRIVE US CRAZY?

Flat surface, smooth laps. One switch for silence.

Every piece of the set laid out on the floor

Nearly every derailing complaint about toy trains comes from deep carpet or a bunched-up tree skirt. Lay the track on a hard floor, a tabletop or a thin board under the skirt, seat each wheel in the rail, and it runs lap after lap. And if the whistle starts to wear on you by the fourth lap, the sound has its own switch, separate from the motor — the steam and the lights keep going without it.

Set up in minutes, not hours

Grandfather and granddaughter laughing as the train passes on Christmas morning

Click the 16 track pieces (12 curved, 4 straight) into a circle for a smaller tree or an oval for a big one. Put 4 AA batteries in the locomotive and 3 AG13 button cells in the passenger car (batteries not included), add water, and flip the switch. It runs forward and in reverse, so set it up the week before and let it be running when they walk in on Christmas morning.

WHO IT'S FOR

Three kinds of families, one train

In buyers' own words.

"They were mesmerized by it"

For the parents setting up Christmas: the kid who can't sit still for a cartoon ends up flat on the rug, following it lap after lap.

"He goes and plays as soon he gets home"

For the grandparents: the thing the grandkids head straight for, every visit until the tree comes down.

"I liked it so much, I got one for myself!"

For the grown-ups who want a train under their own tree — gold-trimmed locomotive, coal car, dining car and lit passenger car.

HOW IT WORKS

Snap. Add Water. Flip the Switch.

Real steam from plain water — no smoke fluid.

Adding drops of water to the smokestack
1

Snap the track

16 pieces click together into a circle or an oval around the tree.

2

Add a few drops of water

Squeeze plain water into the smokestack from the bottle in the box.

3

Flip the switch

It rolls with its headlight on, chugging, whistling and puffing steam — or flip the sound switch for silent laps.

Runs on 4 AA (locomotive) + 3 AG13 (passenger car), batteries not included. Go easy with the water — too much makes it leak instead of steam.

ANY LAST QUESTIONS?

The things families ask before they order

Will it keep derailing?

Nearly every derailing complaint about toy trains comes from deep carpet or a bunched-up tree skirt. Lay the track on a hard floor, a tabletop or a thin board under the skirt, and seat each wheel in the rail before you flip the switch.

Is the steam real?

Yes. Squeeze a few drops of plain water into the smokestack from the bottle in the box and white vapour rolls out as it moves. No smoke fluid. Go easy with the water — too much makes it leak instead of steam.

Can I turn the sound off?

Yes. The whistle and chug have their own switch, separate from the motor, so it can circle in silence while the steam and lights keep going.

What batteries does it need?

4 AA batteries for the locomotive and 3 AG13 button cells for the lit passenger car. Batteries are not included.

What comes in the box?

The locomotive with headlight, steam and sound, a COALS coal car, a dining car, a lit passenger car, 12 curved and 4 straight tracks, 2 traffic lights, the water bottle and the instructions.

What if it isn't right?

If it isn't the train you hoped for, or you're unhappy with it for any reason, message us through the Contact page within 30 days of delivery and we'll walk you through a return and a full refund.
