Everyone loves trains.  The larger the train, the better! Seeing one of the old steam engines pull into the station provides such a warm feeling. Some people have small locomotive models that travel around their Christmas tree, others have elaborate setups in their basements, and some build detailed playhouse versions for their kids.  Get ready for a play structure your kids, and every one else's will have fun with for a long time.

With openings for slides, ladders and a spot to hang a bell, your child will absolutely fall in love with this elaborate 8x17 wooden steam engine playset and will make you a railway hero.  Maybe you could even add more passengers with a handy, dandy caboose?  Thomas would be proud.
