HOW UGEARS LOCOMOTIVE + RAILWAY PLATFORM + RAILS WORKS
Like all the Ugears vehicle models, Locomotive is driven by a power of rubber bands and a gear array, unlike the real steam engine that uses superheated steam. Other than that, Locomotive main mechanism looks and operates just like a real-life steam train. Up close you can observe the system of visibly functioning asynchronous pistons and valves connected to drive wheels through moving rods and linkages creating a beautiful working example of steam engine operations. Railway Platform complimenting Locomotive with a beautiful Victorian-era rail station, Railway Crossing featuring a pair of crossing gates that raise and lower at the touch of a lever, and 13ft of Rails complete our complex, yet most popular model to date. Nonetheless, with easy to understand step-by-step instructions and quality design it can be fully assembled in a single setting. A perfect gift for model train enthusiasts.
