About LEGO Trains

LEGO Trains is one of the longer running themes that dates back from 1966 and ran up until 2006. During its run there were multiple sets released running on various power platforms from 4.5volt, to 9 and 12 volt sets. Later in 2011 LEGO released additional train sets using RC and Power Functions controllers under different themes like City.
1985 LEGO Sets
1985 expanded everyday play in Town—airports, transit, and rescue—alongside incremental growth in Castle and Space. Technic emphasized functional builds with working steering, suspensions, and gear trains, continuing to position the theme as LEGO’s bridge to real-world mechanics.
