Wooden Model Trains
Wood trains for young children are a wonderful way to start a train hobby. They offer real hands-on experience, letting the young engineer provide the push-power to make the train go. Most feature magnetic couplings to provide easy car-coupling (and an interesting lesson on the power of magnets' capacity to both pull and push as an added bonus. Available from Maxim, Maxim/Lionel, Brio and the Thomas the Train folks, trains can be as long or short as you want. Some come with cargoes or human and animal passengers. Call them push-trains if you want - or call them imagination-trains, because that's what they bring to children.
