This BRIO wooden railway station offers two tracks entering a dome-topped shed which contains a gate on each side. The wooden base and roof support columns offer colorful painting and detailing. As always, rounded-off stainless steel hardware is used to join the pieces to the extra-durable plastic roof. Imaginary uses for this depot include an engine service facility, passenger terminal, or even a freight loading area. From the 1996 BRIO catalog, this is now a hard-to-find item. Picture of actual item. MADE IN SWEDEN..... it is getting harder to find NEW BRIO made there. This genuine BRIO Wooden Railway piece is a brand new, 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! |
