It‘s just like getting a bird’s-eye view of a real station! Here’s how it works: as the train pulls into the No. 766 Animated Station the tiny passengers — beautifully hand painted — are impatiently striding about the platform. When the Coach comes to a halt before the Station you open the car door and swing back the station exit gate. Immediately the passengers board the train, which then puffs out of the station to resume its trip. Later, when the "trip" is completed and the train enters the station the second time, you open the car exit door and the passengers are discharged, filing out of the door and down the station ramp. Once "on" button of the twin-button control is turned, action is continuous and automatic. Not only a novel and interesting piece of equipment, but one which provides real railroad atmosphere. Platform made of pressed steel, colorfully finished. Accessory complete with Coach, Station, Twin-button Control, four hand-painted figures, power leads. Illustrated instructions. Measures 13" long x 7 1/8" wide x 3 1/2" high.
