Peep-peep! Here comes Percy the little steam engine from the ever-popular Thomas the Tank Engine and Friends book series and television’s Shining Time Station (based on The Railway Series by Reverend W. Awdry). With its rounded corners and larger features, this chunky-styled Percy is designed for little hands. Made of lightweight plastic and sporting rubber-trimmed tires, Percy, the youngest and most eager engine in the station, heads off down the tracks with his traditional three-dimensional smiling face. A rear coupling prong allows Percy to pull freight and passenger cars of his same chunky style. The 4.5-inch-by-2.5-inch engine has an axle width of 1.75 inches and fits plastic tracks designed for the My First Thomas train series. This toy does not fit the standard 1.5-inch wooden tracks. –Kathryn Gustafson

Not that it makes a difference what it would look like, but my little ones are 2, and have learned what trains look like in books and in person (we have tracks nearby) and they always say ‘choo choo’, or the other day one put her blocks in a line and pushed them around, saying ‘choo choo’ (so cute!) so I just got to wondering if there was trains for girls.
