This is a pretty expensive train set but I wanted to mention the offer because it is a pretty big drop in price.
You can get the Polar Express Lionel Train Set for $199 right now and that includes free shipping.
I was just looking at this at Barnes and Noble today and it was $399 (!). The price at Walmart.com is $369.
Here are the features of the train:
- Transformer controlled forward, neutral, and reverse operation
- Locomotive has operating headlight and puffing smoke; air whistle in the tender
- Locomotive features die-cast metal locomotive body and frame
- Operating couplers on rolling stock and on rear of tender
- Passenger cars feature interior lighting and silhouettes in windows
- Powerful maintenance-free motor, two traction tires, and separately applied metal handrails
I have always wanted a nice big train set to run under the Christmas tree. This one looks like it would be fantastic.
Head over to Amazon to take a look.

If the $200 set is a little much for your budget, there is also one on sale for $95. The same set is priced at $149 right now from Toys R Us so this seems like a nice discount.
The one listed above is an O-Gauge and the one here for $95 is a G-Gauge.
The features include:
- Highly-detailed G-Gauge steam locomotive
- Authentic train sounds, including bell and whistle
- Working headlight
- Handsomely detailed passenger cars feature fixed knuckle couplers
- Remote control features clearly marked buttons that allow the user to make the train go forward and backwards
- To sound the whistle, to ring the bell, and to play `All aboard for the Polar Express
