 BATTERY OPERATED RIDE TOY TRAIN

Electric Toy Train When most peple think of Electric Toy Trains, they think of Hornby, Lionel or some other equally famous model train replicas and with good reason as they are simply fantastic trains. But are you aware that Lego also produce electric toy trains and that they not only have trains, but also locomotives, track, rolling stock, train stations, signal houses and a whole load of other track side buildings and they all have the logo construction theme running through them. This is a great way to introduce kids into the railroad passion without

 

 damaging your very expensive collection and also there is a big adult collectors area who are also passionate about this brand. Lego electric toy trains even have their own scale; known as L-scale. The first Lego trains were sold in 1966 (Lego set number 080) and were push-along trains and had a nice bright blue rail battery operated toy cars. It wasn't until 1969 that they released a battery powered set (number 115) and one of the carriages carried the batteries. In late 1969, the first truly Lego electric toy train came out One of the really cool things about Lego electric toy trains was that they could all be upgrade from one to the other. So if you had bought a push-along train it could be upgraded to battery operated one, which in turn could be upgraded to an electric one. There were no major changes until 1980. Lego changed the tracks from blue to grey and the transformers now supported points, signals, crossing and other accessories and the trains now looked much more realistic. 1991 saw the introduction of the 9 volt system and metal rails being used. The 9 volt system was compatible with other products of theirs. However by 2007 the 9 volt system was completely discontinued. This was due largely to the introduction of the new line of remote control products they brought out in 2006. All rail was now made from plastic and the trains ran on remote control using battery power. The major advantage of this was that more than one train could be run at the same time and there were no longer any problems with track layouts, point systems and polarity of rails, although there were now problems with range for the remote and also the batteries had to be changed. In the summer of 2009, Lego released the new "Emerald Night" (set number 10194) and was part of their Technic Line, which I personally think is ugly, but it was a line that was launched to try and help them get some of their investment money back as they had spent so much developing the trains in the last few years. Lego electric toy trains were very popular and there is even an international Lego Train Club Organization and they exhibit at such festivals as e trains are becoming increasingly popular among middle-age hobbyists who grew up with the building toy as a child, and are frustrated with traditional model trains such as are found in the HO scale electric toy train. There is nothing quite like watching the real thing to get excited, but if you do not have access to Lego trains, then watch a couple of videos here about the Electric Toy battery operated ride ons car.

Electric Toy Trains History 

Toy trains had their modest beginnings in America in the New York loft of Joshua Lionel Cowen in 1901. This simple train, really a single motorized gondola car, has evolved into the most popular hobby in America and Europe. These first trains were battery powered, as most homes didn't have electricity. They were also larger than most modern indoor trains. Mr. Cowen named his train company using his middle name - Lionel. Other manufacturers soon were making electric trains , and many different gauges of trains began to appear. The term gauge refers to the distance between the rails. Mr. Cowen was a shrewd businessman, and he saw the value of all manufacturers using the same gauge of track. He used his pre-eminent position to force his 'Lionel Standard" gauge on the other manufacturers. This gauge is roughly equivalent to the modern G-scale train. This scale is too large for most peoples homes. The next milestone in the history of the electric trains occurred in 1915. By then electricity in homes was becoming more common, and trains designed to run on household current were more practical. Lionel introduced the smaller three rail O gauge which is still in use and popular today. This gauge was more suitable for use in the home, and the use of household current made operating accessories possible. During this period, Lionel was the premier train-maker, but not the only one. The American Flyer company came into being in 1907 with the partnership of two gentlemen named William Hafner and W. O. Coleman. They started with production of clockwork trains. They experimented using lithography, or 'tin type' to manufacture lower cost trains. In 1914, Hafner dissolved the partnership to start his own company. He began to produce the American Flyer electric train, first in O gauge, and later in Standard gauge. The A. C. Gilbert Company purchased American Flyer in 1938, and switched production to HO and O gauge trains. World War II stopped all toy train production. After the war, 1946 saw the introduction of the Flyer S gauge trainsFlyer lasted almost twenty years, producing a good quality product. In the end they just couldn't compete with Lionel, and the company ceased production in 1966. Lionel bought the production rights in 1968, and still produces a small amount of Flyer merchandise each year. Lionel and American Flyer were popular and good quality trains, but they were pricy. Not everyone could afford them. Louis Marx obtained the Joy Line brand of wind-up trains from a Pennsylvania toy company in 1938. This was a fairly cheap line of trains, and the Marx Company grew their own line of trains from this beginning. These trains were more affordable, and were popular until the company went out of business in 1975. Recently, the Marx train line has been revived, and are again available to run and collect battery operated ride ons car.

Some Toys Just Live On

battery operated toy cars.">When Lionel Cowen whittled a miniature locomotive from a piece of wood, that only speaks to his creativity, and saw a "Push Train" in a lower Manhattan Store window, he knew he had to invent a circular track and apply the battery to it - the rest is history. This electric driven phenomenon had a lasting common value - that is American Moms and Dads could sit down after dinner with their children, and could enjoy not only the "Lionel Wonder" but the "Family Circle" as well. Truly - it's value given has contributed to becoming an Iconic Legend, symbolized by the Pedal Trains of today. Around the turn of the century, Jukebox makers like Wurlitzer, Seeburg and Crosley would invent a musical box or an Oldies Jukebox, that played cherished musical tunes that people loved. Not only was the sheer glowing machines attractive with bubbling tubes and multiple selections; friends would gather around tables in local Diners, Pool Halls and High School dance floors to enjoy a favorite ballad. A Jukebox had the power to evoke memories that you thought were long forgotten. At one time they were referred to as Joog Box, as farm and plantation workers would slip away in the evenings, and frequent a local "Jook Joint", an inexpensive club or restaurant where laborers could visit with friends and family members taking in music, food and drink for a fair-price, enjoying that "Circle" of friends. At one time they might have been thought as out-dated; but now these musical gems continue to light up any atmosphere, and echo cherished melodies of bygone days coveted by a range of all age groups electric battery operated ride ons. Likewise, several designers are responsible for the innovation and invention of Pedal Cars, but no one else can claim as much credit for this charming creation than Pierre Gendron pointed out by Andrew G. Gurka in "Pedal Car Restoration and Price Guide". Gendron in the late 1800's as a "Pattern-maker" and a "Tinkerer", would create the Wire Wheel, that is used today in most toys and equipment. Pedal Cars have always resembled the miniature Autos of the day. A charm that seemed not only to be in their style and uniqueness, ornaments and features; but in an attraction that allowed children to mimick their Mom and Dad in their grown-up vehicle. Children have been able to pretend in the Pedal Car, to be the Fireman, the Tow-truck Operator, the Policeman, the Racer, or the affluent Entrepreneur, to assume a role right-a-long with their parents. Again - we see a common thread where children are able to identify with those they love and honour, gives reason why Pedal Cars are unique, having a charm that cannot be extinguished. Toys that live on is not only for their many color, appointments and style, rather more importantly for a value that exudes from their early makings that nurtures the Family Circle, supports child/parent relationships and increases friendships, sharing the Iconic Toys of our culture. battery operated toy cars.">battery operated ride ons.
