Wooden Toy Trains

Posted by woodworker on February 4th, 2007

I was cruising the Internet the other night and did that thing where you start off on one topic and gradually wander off onto something completely different. I was looking up rail guns, just out of curiosity, and ended up on wooden toy trains. Most of the links were sales pages about Brio, Thomas the Tank Engine, etc., but reading The Wooden Railway Page reminded me of all the good times I had with my trains when I was a kid. They were some of my favorite toys, along with my wooden blocks. After some filtering of Google’s results, I found some really good information about making not just the trains, but the track as well. Another good site is
Hoogerland National Railways.

Worth looking into.
