Wooden toy train tracks

Wood

— for a number of reasons, wood is used primarily in children's railways (see "Road/Railway Style"). This is a fairly practical material — in particular, wooden parts are usually made solid and have a fairly large thickness, thanks to which they are well resistant to bumps, falls and other "tests" that a curious little child can subject them to. In addition, wood is appreciated by lovers of natural materials (although in this case its naturalness is rather arbitrary, since wooden surfaces are painted and variously impregnated).
