This train is our version of the very well known kids engine, we call him the Look-A-Like, because while he resembles that other engine, he is our very own. Look-a-like trains come standard 6 cars, with all cars painted using child safe paints and sealers, the axles are wooden and the cars are latched together with steel latches. The train is approx. 3 feet long and is lightweight. This train is meant for indoor play only.
