Based on Richard Scarry's Busy Town, this delightful train station set offers your child a train, the train station, tracks, special characters including the Huckle Cat and Lowly Worm, and other play pieces like a removable clock. The playset can be used for indoor and outdoor play. This system runs on a smooth track that contains nine pieces. The shapes form a continuous oval. All of the pieces are durable, well-made and colorful. There are 17 play pieces in all. They will keep your young engineer busy moving his train while playing. A great way to add to the delightful Richard Scarry book and to encourage reading out loud.
