Francis is a wooden steam train by Le Toy Van, inspired by classic black steam locomotives and crafted to capture the romance and adventure of the golden age of rail travel. Made from FSC® certified birch wood with smooth beechwood wheels and a child-safe, water-based finish, he invites children to create exciting railway journeys, bustling stations, and imaginative stories.
Designed for little hands, Francis' sturdy shape is easy to grip, push, and roll — perfect for open-ended play and small world adventures, whether travelling through the countryside, collecting passengers, or becoming part of a favourite railway scene. One of 50 vehicles in Le Toy Van's Limited Edition Classic Car Collection, he arrives with a collector's poster and makes a wonderful first train, gift, or addition to a growing collection.
