About this item

Discover the wonders of freight trains as you learn to transport cargo from the ships onto the railways on land. Transport the important cargo from ships to trains. You can lift the bridge to let the ships pass and even turn on the lighthouse to send signals out to sea. When the train passes over the special rail, you’ll hear exciting sound effects like a train whistle and the crashing ocean waves. This set can also be connected to other Hape railway sets for never-ending railway fun! The open-ended nature of railway sets means this toy is wonderful for encouraging creativity. Plus Hape’s railway sets can all be connected to expand their collections. Great for developing spatial thinking and fine motor skills as well as improving language and social skills as they play with friends and family. When you touch the base of the lighthouse, there is a red light to warn and a white light to give the go-ahead to passing ships. When the train passes over the special track, you’ll hear a train whistle and the crashing waves too. This set has all sorts of realistic elements to help children to explore the harbour and learn more about the world around them.
