The railcar was first developed in about 500BC as a wagoncar powered by human or animal pulling the wagon, to haul bulky materials from mines to point of useage. The wagon wheels and track evolved over 2300 years before the first steampowered train was introduced in about 1794.  More interesting information on the development of trains is located at wikipedia history of trains.

Duke Wooden Toys enjoyed riding through his Dukedom in his custom handmade wooden railcar pulled by two large pure white stallions.  He used these trips to distribute the wooden toy trains for kids created by the Wood Workers Guild 001. These kids trains helped his young subjects develop hand eye co ordination. His young subjects needed great hand eye co ordination to compete in many of the hunting and survival contests Duke Wooden Toys held each year.

Mufstuf wooden toy store has used pictures from the Duke of Toys personal diary to have toy trains for kids made in USA by American Craftsmen who create the toy trains from multiple woods treated with lead free, non toxic finishes for the safety of your children. These educational wooden toy trains will help your child develop their hand eye co ordination.  These toy trains are handmade wooden toys that will last many years and pass from sibling to sibling. Mufstufs wooden toy trains do NOT require batteries, saving mom/dad money.  Think Green.
