Crossing the plains of the American West was a formidable task in the early days of the nation. Making the journey faster and less dangerous, pioneer wagon trains gave way to the Iron Horse in the 1860s. Our Plainsman set represents one of these early travelers of the West and features a Union Pacific® 4-6-0 steam locomotives (with operating headlight, smoke and speed synchronized sound), coal tender, stock car, bobber caboose, 5'4" x 4'3" oval of track (14 pieces), engineer and fireman figures, power pack with speed controller, and illustrated "Bach Man" instruction manual.
