Brio CANADIAN PACIFIC Royal Hudson (1996) 3 pcs Wooden Train

#33431 Trains of the World BRIO began marketing the Trains of the World series in 1995, though some of the trains that would be included in the series began production as early as 1991, and others would see production well after the series was officially retired in 1999. The Canadian Pacific Royal Hudson Train is a train based on the Royal Hudson locomotives owned by the Canadian Pacific Railway and built from 1937 to 1940. It includes a Canadian Pacific coach. This rare BRIO wooden railway model from the Trains of the World series features engine number 2860 with white boiler, maroon and yellow trim, and a separate tender car. The train also includes a matching Canadian Pacific passenger coach. This genuine BRIO Wooden Railway piece is a high-quality item made in Sweden. It is a rare, out-of-production treasure that is hand-built from solid beechwood, using environmentally-friendly paints. A toy of lasting quality that will inspire the imaginations of generations of young (3+) railroaders or make-believers. A timeless choice for birthdays or the holidays -- can't be found in stores! Trivia The Canadian Royal Hudson train is significant as it is the only engine class permitted to use the Royal crown insignia and name outside of the United Kingdom. It was granted this significance because King George was so impressed with it during his tour of Canada in the 1930s. The real-life engine this product is based on was built in 1940 and is one of the only four preserved Royal Hudsons. It is currently located at the West Coast Railway Heritage Park in Squamish, British Columbia. 🔎 Please look closely and review the attached photos provided carefully to see the condition of the item(s) you will receive. ℹ️ Please feel free to contact me if you have any questions! 📦 Willing to Ship at the Buyers expense.
