Baby's first train.
Trains fascinate children and adults alike. Whether it's the fast new trains or the old steam trains which hold that piece of magic. We have train museums, old steam train railways lines and events. There are model railways designed and played with for and by adults. Most of us and our children will have had some sort of train toy during childhood. Many manufacturers make toy trains.
A toy train that I have played with recently alongside a child I hasten to add is the Lego baby train number 5463.
Lego Baby is the largest of the Lego range. First available as Lego baby in 2005 It used to be called Lego primo or Duplo primo. These bricks are designed for babies from 6 to 18 months. The train is recommended for children ages 1year and over. These bricks are 4 times the size of duplo eight times ordinary Lego ...
Advantages: make a good circuit Disadvantages: none
My grandson now ages 5 ½ has moved on to playing with small Lego. He loves trains, has spent many happy hours playing with both brio and duplo trains. He is not quite old enough for Hornby oo model trains he would love to play with granddads model trains but they would soon get destroyed.

Each piece has 5 sleepers between the rails and are 5 inches long.The tracks will conduct electricity to allow the 9vLegotrains to run. These tracks are compatible ...
Advantages: Cheap Disadvantages: As good as original brands
Santa bought my four year old the lovely mountain train set made by tesco. He desperately wanted a train set and when we were in Toysrus we would look at the brio sets and then look around the other toys. It was not unitl near to Christmas that I actually decided to look at the price. I was horrified to discover how expensive brio train sets were. I looked in several other shops ELC etc but they too were too expensive. I found a cheap set in ASDA but it did not seem to be compatabile with brio or even near to the quality, so I decided not to buy the train set from there either. When we were shopping in Tescos my son pointed out the train sets and took a real interest in a lovely mpuntain train set which had had a wooden train set, a little bridge, wooden animals, trees, tunnels, trains, carriages,sign and mountains all for £24 ...
