Real trains are too big!

We have a boy who loves trains, he will quite happily spend ages crouched on the floor  running his trains around track, and often carries a small train around with him. He very much like Thomas the tank engine – so we thought we’d visit the local train centre as it’d be right up his street.

We got that wrong! What we hadn’t realised was that Elias used to his trains three year old fist sized – the full size trains were all a bit much and he refused to clamber all over them like his big sister and Daddy! We found one that really looked like Percy (Thomas the tank) and when we suggested this we received a very firm ‘ No, it’s not Percy’ and there was no budging him on that!

The rest of us had a fab day, Elias has since enjoyed looking at the pictures we took, funny little guy!

  

So here’s the boy sized trains, Daddy & Elias dwarfed by the real trains… and no, it’s not Percy!
