Model Kit Hogwarts Express

Description

Model Kit Hogwarts Express. Enter the wizarding world and join Harry, Hermione and Ron on an exciting journey aboard the Hogwarts Express, with this special working model train from Ugears. This beautiful wooden model train, departs from King’s Cross Station in London with destination Hogsmeade Station near Hogwarts Castle. It has a spring-driven locomotive, a coal tender and a passenger coach, in which three figurines of the young wizarding heroes are on their way to school. Wind up the model with the special key, turn the chimney start/stop switch and watch the mesmerizing motion of the locomotive’s gears, wheels and connecting rods as it tumbles forward. The Ugears HogwartsTM Express can run 4 meters (with tender and carriage) or 6 meters (locomotive only) on any smooth, flat surface. This beautiful 3D wooden model train also comes with a track section and platform 9 buffer stop for an elegant static display. The beautiful locomotive can be driven alone or in combination with two wagons: a coal tender and a passenger coach. The tender has an empty coal bin where you can store the train’s wind-up key or other small items. The passenger coach has three compartments, three doors that open and a removable roof, so you can place the figurines of Harry Potter, Hermione Granger and Ronald Weasley on special supports that move back and forth when the train is in motion. The locomotive is the driving force of the model, with its metal spring motor and gears that transmit power to the moving wheels. The locomotive is wound up with a special key (there are winding slots on both the left and right sides of the engine), but be sure to turn the chimney to the “Stop” position first. Once the spring is wound up, hold the model while turning the chimney to the “Start” position, release and watch as the train pulls forward in a straight line. Look at those beautiful train wheels and connecting rods in action! You can choose to leave your completed model in its attractive, natural wood state, paint it in the colors of the Hogwarts Express (as seen in the Harry Potter films), or give it your own original finish. (Paint not included.) This beautiful train model will appeal to Potterheads everywhere, train enthusiasts, model hobbyists, model train collectors and anyone who likes to work and build things with their hands. The HogwartsTM Express model train set is a great gift idea for parents of children who love the Harry Potter series of books and movies, or for parents looking for a fun craft project to build with their children. The kit consists of approximately 500 parts. Estimated assembly time: 10 hours
