Given the huge selection of such Geburtstagszuegen struck me the choice not easy, finally I chose this train and am very happy with the choice! The train is much prettier than in the picture. The colors shine properly and evaluate every birthday table on. My son has played with the same train, and he makes a fairly stable impression. I was a bit unsure about the size of the candle, as I had read in a comment, you need "the big birthday candles". I have to the Goki 60855 ordered candles, and the fit perfectly. The only thing I am not entirely clear is why the numbers 0 - 9 plus there if you "only" 6 car has for candles. But I think after the 6th anniversary of the train then maybe not quite as interesting. I highly recommend this train!
