V-Express Steam Train with Tender is here to take you on a journey of innovations and technology.  Getting its inspiration from the Victorian Age of inventions, UGears created this fascinating steam locomotive model; an iconic symbol, commencing the beginning of global industrial transformation.

The exquisitely detailed design of V-Express allows you to observe the beauty of moving elements. Shacks and gears, the flywheel and the cylinder-piston arrangement; all these features make UGears V-Express look like a real locomotive.

Like all UGears mechanical transportation models, the V-Express is operated by a self-propelled motor, allowing the Train to move on its own.  A single wind of the Train engine produces enough power to run up to 13 feet.  The V-Express Steam Train operates on 3 settings: forward, back and idle.  The  “back” setting allows the Train to roll backward and automatically hook up with the Tender. The Tender, though designed as a part of the V-Express Steam Train with Tender model, is no less exciting and worth mentioning on an individual note. Designed based on the past century coal car, it is a fully functioning model, equipped with moving with elements like a locking hatch and dropping sides.

How UGears V-Express Steam Train with Tender Works

The V-Express Steam Train with Tender runs on a rubber-band operating motor and can cover up to 13 feet in a single wind! The direction of the movement is controlled by a small switch lever, located on the side of the Train body.  The Tender, designed as a coal car, provides for some additional cargo space to fit in small items such as notes, charms, small jewelry and other knick-knacks.

    This was my first build and won\'t be my last as a matter of fact I have already ordered my next kit. Kit has every thing needed to complete the build but I would recommend a small sanding block, small file and a pair of pliers. Wonderful quality, great price, great customer service.

    Having recently completed constructing the locomotive and tender, I can with great satisfaction say that it looks awesome and works! Totally absorbing, wonderfully challenging (for me anyway) at times, this model and U-Gears models in general are wonderful and if I dare give any advice just remember, you really do need to eat, to do laundry.............thank you U-Gears!Larry Fiori

    Second model I have made and I love them. I am retired and was looking for something to do. The kits are perfect and the instructions are excellent . I look forward to working on it every day. As soon as I finish the one I’m working on [train] I will order another kit.

    An absolute beautiful model. The only thing that would make it better is if UGEARS offered additional tenders to create a longer chain. :)

    This was my second model build. Looks great. Wheels functioned (moved) as required but could not internal gears to move. Not enough wax?! Highly recommend watching Youtube videos which are extremely helpful. Looking forward to building additional UGears models.

    Ordered this at the same time when I ordered my 1st kit, the Theatre. At 538 parts I knew this would be more of a challenge but so far it's been great. I did manage to break one piece, but a simple EMail and a replacement is on it's way. This did not stop me from continuing, and so far I'm up to page 18, step 2; which is as far as I can go without the replacement part. I have about 12 hours into it so far, but I'm not rushing. Some parts are pretty small and seem fragile, so I'm taking my time popping them out of the boards. It's all coming together, thanks to the great colorful manual. I did find it helpful to bring up the PDF instruction document and then enlarging it on the screen to see some additional details. Also, waxing the toothpicks and other parts make things slightly easier to assemble. I'm having a great tie with these and I'm already planning my next order!

    Just finished this V-Express Steam Train With Tender. It definitely draws attention displayed. I built a 2' long set of rails from pine with walnut ties to set it on the entertainment center. Added some brass rails to the tender and engine. Also added a LED front light. Runs in both directions well on the 8' of tracks included in the kit but built the 2' section so the rails and ties looked more realistic. My building time was quite long but was not on any time schedule. Also added twin "short" exhaust stacks.

    My niece loves everything from the Victorian Age. She has so many figures relating to it in her room. I decided that this year, when I visit her and her family, I won’t get her a cookie-cutter figure that she can just look at. I decided to give her a V-Express Steam Train model. She’s sure to love it!

    For my husband’s birthday, I decided to buy him this model by UGears. He loves trains, and Id elided to get him something relating to trains and their functions rather than a watch or a tie. I’m sure he’ll love it.

    I love trains. I have since I was a boy. I love how they move so smoothly over the tracks, with such speed and power. Learning their functions and structures has only made me love them more. And now that my wife has given me this beautiful model to build, I’m pretty sure I love trains even more than before.
