Picture of Actual Item. MADE IN SWEDEN..... it is getting harder to find NEW BRIO made there. The Mallard steam engine is famous for its world record setting 128 miles per hour speed in 1938. This outstanding wooden replica hails from BRIO's groundbreaking vintage 'Trains of the World' series. Painted in brilliant blue, the engine and tender, plus beautiful passenger coach will shine in any collection! This genuine BRIO Wooden Railway set is a brand new, factory sealed, 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. BRIO wooden railway items are the true original, but are also compatible with Thomas the Tank Engine & Friends track and pieces too. So, the item featured here can be used to add on to any existing wooden railway. This is a rare chance to buy classic Swedish-made BRIO from untouched store inventory. Until recently, BRIO wooden toys were made with pride in Sweden since 1884. The company used all non-toxic materials, including flawless beechwood and birch hardwoods that are durable enough for decades of play and free of insecticides and toxic chemicals; paints that are likewise non-toxic, with up to 60 coats applied to each painted piece to resist chipping while maintaining their bright colors. A timeless choice for the holidays -- can't be found in stores! The item has been professionally stored in a clean, smoke-free, pet-free area, as with all of our items. This may be a rare toy from the past, but you will not know it by looking at it -- the usual dings and scuffs are absent. That is to say, rest assured when buying from ToysPeriod; "always first, always mint". |
