LEGO® DUPLO® Train with Oval Case

Description

A train you can take along

The title names two things: a train and an oval case. With 50 pieces there is enough material in the box to build a small vehicle and use the rest as ordinary bricks. The case is meant for packing everything away and taking it with you, perhaps to visit relatives or on holiday. There are no minifigures; playing with the train comes first, and it needs no further accessories to get going. An exact breakdown of the individual elements is available in the parts list on this page, so you do not have to guess.

Bright primary colours

Red, yellow, green and blue are the main colours, which is the typical Duplo palette. A train in these shades stands out on the playroom floor at once, and children can spot their favourite colour immediately. The clear tones also help with sorting: you can build carriages by colour or assemble a whole train in one shade, then change it up the next time you play. That is handy as well if you later want to take out some pieces for constructions of your own and use them elsewhere.

Twelve different part types

The 50 pieces are spread over twelve different types. Besides the basic bricks there are several special elements typical of a train, such as wheels or other fittings. That makes the set more versatile than a plain bucket of bricks. At the same time, the list stays short enough that you can check a second-hand copy for completeness easily and order any missing parts precisely. A handful of extra special parts gives the set a touch of variety without making the instructions complicated.

Expanding and reusing

All parts are listed with colour and quantity further down the page. The “What can I build?” tool shows which other Duplo sets fit together with your stock. The train can be lengthened or rebuilt with other bricks, and the case stays useful as storage afterwards. In this way the set grows with a collection, and you do not need to buy anything new to keep it interesting. If a few pieces are missing, a quick look at the list is usually enough to find and replace them precisely.
