At a certain stage children learn that they have the power to make things react to their touch. Your young engineer will just love making the train run and stop, go backwards and automatically change direction. And to add to the fun there is a cargo shoot where your child can drop blocks into the cargo wagon and even raise and lower the crossing gate. The battery powered DUPLO Cargo Train can go everywhere — it runs on the track and directly on the floor. Plus, unlike ordinary toy trains, your child builds both locomotive and wagons and then can redesign them his or her own way. It's a toy that stays fresh, a new adventure each time. Requires 3AA Alkaline batteries (not included).

• Little fingers can drop cargo into the wagon.
• Features 4 different actions and sounds children can operate themselves!
• Add [the pole changer] piece anywhere on the track to change direction.
• Hand operated start/stop rail allows your child to choose whether the train stops, goes by, or changes direction.
