Mystery Train Set

 

I see this plastic train set all over. Usually it's loose and in bits.

This one in a charity shop appears complete.

Anyone recognise it?

  1. Doesn’t look familiar Woodsy, although that type of track is ubiquitous to made in China battery operated trains

    I had a couple of sets of these push-along trains in the late 1960s or very early 1970s, a small one, and a larger set, plus a few extra items. In NZ they were sold under the Lincoln International name, and in Australia by Toltoys. Mine also has Child Guidance Toys on the boxes, and I expect these were either British or American in origin. I did not have all the items shown, and certainly not that thing with all the gears.
    The railway system used red plastic track with moulded-in sleeper detail. There was a matching roadway system with plain black plastic roads.

    1. I wonder with all the geared track whether this is battery operated Paul?

    2. Looks to me like a hand cranked turntable. Note the peg on the gray gear.
