 click to enlarge | Maxim 50946 - Big Train Roundhouse Open the doors and wake up the locomotives for a new, busy day of creative play with trains! The Big Train Roundhouse has five spaces to park locomotives (or anything else that may need to rest) measuring up to about 4.5” in length inside. The five-way connecting track lets little engineers easily get the locomotives from the main line to any space in the roundhouse and then back out again. The roundhouse makes a great “home base” for trains to venture out from - or to hurry back to if there’s a big thunderstorm! Knock, knock, can I come in? Includes 1 roundhouse with working doors and 1 five-way connecting track. Please note that this roundhouse is not designed to fit BRIO®, Thomas & Friends™, or Maxim® brand turntables. We mention this because BRIO® and Thomas™ each make large turntables designed to plug right in to their respective roundhouses. Using the included five-way connecting track is the only way to connect all five stalls of the Maxim® roundhouse to the rest of your layout at the same time. You can, of course, connect almost any piece of track directly to the roundhouse, but the included five-way track lets engineers pick any stall they like any time! | $33.95 In stock, usually ships the next business day |
 click to enlarge | Maxim 50443 - Lakeville Train Station The little Lakeville train station is busy sending passengers on big adventures. Around back on the track-side of the station, little stationmasters can turn the signboard to let the passengers know where the next train is headed - Tokyo?, London?, New York?, Paris? There's a bench inside so passengers can sit and rest while they wait. There's also a nice skylight to let the sun shine in. “Lakeville Local now departing track one, making all local stops. All aboard!” Includes 1 train station. | $15.95 Sorry, this item is sold out! |
 click to enlarge (locomotive not included) | Maxim 50426 - Record and Play Train Station This little train station is busy sending passengers on big adventures. Play back your own recorded messages over the station’s public address system! Turn the signboard to let the passengers know where the next train is headed - New York?, Boston?, L.A.?, Chicago? The stop-and-start switch track can be used with compatible battery powered engines (engines by BRIO® and others with a little push-button on/off switch on the bottom) as well as any other engine or train car. If you don’t have a compatible engine, it’s still fun to flip the lever back and forth! Recorded messages can be 4-5 seconds long and there is a handy on/off switch under the roof of the station if Mom and Dad’s ears need a rest. “Lakeville Local now arriving on track one. Lakeville Local now arriving!” Includes 1 eleven-piece Record and Play train station and 1 stop and start switch track. Requires 3 AA batteries (not included). The red locomotive in the picture is not included! | $39.95 (requires 3 AA batteries) In stock, usually ships the next business day - or - $40.95 with pack of 4 AA batteries In stock, usually ships the next business day |
 click to enlarge | Maxim 50230 - Pier Set with Cargo Ship and Containers Unload freight from the cargo ship with the working crane. Load the boxes onto the container truck and deliver them on time! The Pier Set works great by itself or can be combined directly with your railroad. With one or more tracks running to the dock, the crane can unload cargo from trains onto the ship or vice versa. How can we send the freight where it needs to go? With the container truck, a train, the crane and the ship, young engineers can figure out endless new ways to tackle the problem! Includes 1 crane, 1 cargo ship, 2 magnetic load containers, 1 container truck, 1 pier. | $15.95 In stock, usually ships the next business day |
 click to enlarge | Maxim 50414 - Gas Station In some small towns, the gas station is the center of activity. The people in your town can drive in and out of this station to fill their gas tanks or pick up a snack. In some towns, this station sells train tickets to the passengers who board the train at the stop around back. The two ramps and the car-shaped “Gas Station” sign on top attach neatly with built-in magnets. The two trees and the standing gas station sign can sit in little sockets around the station (as in the picture) or stand anywhere your town planner wishes. We have the utmost respect for anyone speaking or writing in a foreign language as the artists at Maxim in China sometimes need to do, but we have to laugh when we see the word, “Coffice” under a picture of a steaming cup of coffee on the side of the station. It’s actually a very useful word - it combines “coffee” and “office” all in one word! Includes 1 gas station building, 2 ramp pieces, 2 trees, 1 gas station sign and 1 taxicab. The graphics on the station differ slightly from this picture. | $19.95 In stock, usually ships the next business day |
 click to enlarge | Maxim 50208 - Water Tower Steam locomotives need to carry a lot of water to make the steam to make them go! When your locomotives need more water, or when your circus animals are thirsty, stop at the water tower and lower the spout for a fill-up! Includes 1 water tower. | $11.95 In stock, usually ships the next business day |
 click to enlarge | Maxim 50206 - Signal Tower Busy railroads need signal towers to help keep trains from bumping into each other. Move the switch on the side of the tower to change the signal from "Stop" to "Go". For Stop, the signalman crosses his arms, the red light shows, and the word "Stop" shows under the signal tower (above the track). For Go, the signalman raises his hand to wave, the green light shows, and the word "Go" shows under the signal tower. Engineers need to pay attention to the signals so they can keep their passengers and cargo safe from collisions! Includes 1 signal tower. | $17.95 In stock, usually ships the next business day |
 click to enlarge | Maxim 50405 - Green Shade Trees - pack of 4 Trees aren’t just pretty decorations for your train set. These trees make great orchards, wild forests, or even things for trains to hide behind. Don’t forget that farmers need trains to take the fresh apples from their orchards to market. Lumberjacks need trains to take logs from the trees to the sawmill. And, of course, “A tree is nice for a house to be near. The tree shades the house and keeps it cool.”* Includes 4 shade trees. *From the delightful book (even though it’s not about trains!), A Tree is Nice, by Janice May Udry | $4.50 In stock, usually ships the next business day |
