LEGO® Starter Train Set without Motor

Description

A train you push by hand

Part of the Train / 4.5V line, this 1966 set from LEGO® leaves out the motor that its sibling includes, so the train is moved by hand. It contains 118 pieces in 17 types and no minifigures. For a newcomer it was a cheaper way into the railway range. The parts list further down the page shows each type with colour and quantity, which makes it easy to confirm whether an old copy still has everything it should.

Blue takes the lead

Blue, white, red and light grey set the look. The strong blue gives the train its identity, white and red add accents, and light grey appears in the running gear and connections. It looks quite different from later trains, which makes the set easy to spot on a shelf. If you assemble a train in this scheme, match your blues carefully, because bricks from different years can differ noticeably in tone even when the shape is identical.

Room to grow

Without a motor, the train is easy to extend with more wagons later. With only 17 types the inventory is simple to follow, and many bricks occur several times. Use the list here to see what you may be missing, then open the “What can I build?” tool to find out which models become possible with these 118 pieces and your own collection, in case you would rather build your own variation than copy the original exactly.

Next to the motor set

Put the two starter sets side by side and the difference is clear: the motorised one has 132 pieces in 22 types, this one 118 in 17. Much of the gap comes from what the drive required. For wagons and bodywork, though, this version does the job just as well, and the shared colours make it straightforward to combine parts from both later on if you own more than one set.
