Finally getting a little time in the shop & this train is a play/semi-educational toy ie: the flat car with the discs teach fractions ie: whole, halves, thirds, & quarters, plus a mix of others once the youngster gets the hang of it. Also straight play by towing the train around. Stretched out it is close to 6ft. long.
This toy will be one of a number that I donate each Christmas for inner city kids. Thanks for looking.

Great job, and the reason is well worth the effort. I am making trains right now myself and yours gave me an idea, thanks. Doug

Nice! I need to get these cabinets done so I can spend some time just playing in the shop, stuff like this makes me jealous!
