This is the animated Thomas the Tank Engine train that can transport cargo while it rolls along the track. Thomas's eyes move side-to-side as the train huffs and puffs down the track and he is trailed directly by S.C. Ruffey, Thomas's trusty ballast-wagon pal. The train has an open wagon that accommodates the engineer's cargo, a cream tanker, and a cattle wagon that brings up the rear. The HO scale train rolls smoothly on the 56" x 38" oval track that snaps together in minutes and Thomas travels at varying speeds that are controlled by the included corded remote control. Plugs into AC. Ages 8 and up. Train: 19 1/2" L x 3 1/3" H. (5 lbs.)
