Train is 32 1/2 in long, 5 in wide including wheels. Made of oak and walnut. The lid lifts off the caboose. Connectors are leather. This is a safety feature. Metal hooks can be unscrewed and swallowed. They can also scratch precious little hands. By way of special order, extra cars can be ordered. Great for baby's first Christmas, to sit on a mantel or to sit under a Christmas tree. For those ordering from Canada, contact me for the shipping cost.
