The Lionel Trains Polar Express Train Set - O Gauge
has some really great features that make it gift that will be loved for years to come.It's so realistic - the cars feature interior lighting and silhouettes in the windows to make it look like there are little passengers aboard. The engine puffs smoke and has a headlamp that really works. There's even a steam whistle for that added touch of real old-time train realism. The set includes figures modeled after the characters from the 2004 movie Polar Express.
The train is generally easy to set up - younger children may need mom or dad's help, but bringing the family together is one of the true joys of a model train set.
The Transformer is easy to use, even for small hands, and allows forward and reverse movement. The included track is 40" x 60" and extra pieces of track are available separately to expand the set to your hearts content.

Wow this was worth the hassle to find. We lucked out and got it at retail price and delivered before Christmas. This was my 6 yr old son's first "real" electric train. What a special train it is. The details are fantastic. Lionel out did themselves! The engine is sooo heavy and very well built. The passenger/observational cars were suprisingly light, but incredibly detailed, quite beautiful! Transformer is powerful, track easy to put together. The characters are to scale and he has placed in the train and they ride around sticking out the end of the cars and in the engine. Smoke stack works perfect. Everything is just great. I guess we have a train enthusiast now. He runs it every day... and is soooo proud of it. He is so careful with it and teaches all his friends all about it. Worth every penny.
I ordered this train set for my 2 and 4 year old grandsons. Actually, I think my son ( their father)wanted it more than the boys did. The train is made very well and the cars are big and strong enough for the boys to handle without worrying about breaking them. Of course, it still requires an adult to supervise. The controller for the engine is big and easy for little hands to operate. The track is excellent and fits together nicely. It does not fall apart. It is easy to place the train's wheels on the track. This is an expensive train, but is is well worth it and will be around for years of enjoyment.
Had been looking for a train to put under our family Christmas tree. A couple of years ago I came across the Polar Express version when scoping the net for trains. Set was getting good reviews as seen on other sites. Amazon had the best price and no shipping cost... has been a great choice. The train set was a snap to put together. Great memories of the train under the tree in the 60's... but with NONE of the maintence problems of old time train and the track alignment problems!! Engine whistles and puffs smokes. Has been a hit with family and friends. Box the train came in is very well made and easy to repack for storage and protected from damage for next year. And of course as in movie, comes with the famous Gold Bell that rings when a child believes... to put on your own tree.
