With the holidays right around the corner, now is the time to get a head start on shopping for the best gifts. If you want to get the kids in your life something special and timeless, consider gifting them a remote train set. Train sets are one of the most classic toys out there and, in some ways, can feel like a rite of passage in early years.
Though it's not hard to splurge on an impressive train set with all of the bells and whistles, you can find some excellent budget-friendly options, such as the Topfox Remote Train Set, which is currently on sale for just $34 during the Walmart Deals event happening now through October 12.

This Topfox Remote Train Set is a timeless toy that the whole family will enjoy. The remote-controlled train boasts a realistic locomotive experience -- only miniature -- complete with train sounds, working headlights and realistic-looking smoke plumes.
The train set features a rechargeable battery pack with USB connectivity and comes with a variety of track pieces that allow you to create custom tracks, whether you want a simple loop around the family's Christmas tree or a winding path through your child's bedroom.
This remote control train is designed for kids ages 3, 4, 5 and 6, but it's equally as much fun for the entire family, inspiring a touch of holiday magic with imaginative play.
