The perfect gift that brings back memories

Well, this is a Christmas gift for my brother it has yet to be out of the box but I did see someone show it moving on its own. this made the gift even cooler then I originally thought.


Perfect for anyone who loves to tinker & is a perfectionist

I got this for my father who loves building things. He has a model train (N Scale...aka tiny) and this was the prefect project for him. It took him days to finish this, and he spent a few hours on this at a time, but he loved it and I'll definitely be buying him something similar for next Christmas.


Best Gift Ever

Building model trains at same time over facetime due to covid with my father and my son. Son is 4 and has a plastic model train.


I can't wait to try the other kits!

I loved building this train...it took me about 18 hours total to assemble and I'm so pleased with how it turned out. Not only do all the gears mesh perfectly for movement, it's also quite lovely and impressive sitting on my mantel. I would recommend using something to widen the holes for the toothpick pins, however...I used a tiny pick with a fine abrasive surface to make assembly a bit easier. #sweepstakes


Locomotive Kit Unique Challenge

The locomotive has/is a challenging puzzle. It is unique and a treasure.


Highly recommended for adults that like to tinker

My father said it was a challenge. You do have to be very careful with the pieces. He was worried he was going to break some, but never did. This kept him busy for about 3 weeks. He could only do a few hours at a time.


Great Gift

This was perfect for an adult that enjoys creating things. The pieces are perfect for a challenge and the moving wheels are awesome. My dad really enj


Unique item

How many pieces? Is it mostly for children or would it be good for an adult who likes to build things? Level of difficulty.

Verified reply from Leslie

Hi! This would be great for an adult who likes to build things. With 443 parts and a completion time of 10-12 hours, it's definitely challenging.


The moving locomotive kit -- is the package 24"x4"x5" or is the final product that size? If the final product (the finished locomotive) is that size, what size is the package that contains it?
