Last year, I put up a cute train around the bottom of the tree. Then, about 5 seconds later, it was destroyed by the dog. This year, though, I’ve got a better plan. I’m using an elevated Christmas train around the tree, so it’s no longer ground level.
Using an elevated Christmas tree train mounts the entire train set off the ground. Enjoy the classic look, while keeping everything away from pets and small children. Not to mention, this brings the train to eye level for even better viewing. Next stop, the Polar Express!
Elevate your holiday train set literally, with the help of a Christmas train around the tree!
The elevated Christmas tree train is the space-saving solution that keeps your holiday merry and bright. That’s right, the classic tree train is no longer around the base of the tree, but instead suspended!
It’s perfect if you have pets and small children that would otherwise disturb the train set. I also love it because it leaves the floor space open (hello more presents)! Not to mention, I can sit and watch the train go around without having to lay on the floor.
A circular train track attaches to a clamp and arm which reaches into the center of the tree. Secure it around the center pole or trunk, and you have a mounted Christmas tree train!
The train track circle is 42” in diameter and is designed to fit both real and artificial Christmas trees. Adjust how high up the tree to place it based on the overall size of your specific tree.
Should you prefer, you can place it around the base, in lieu of a tree skit. This may be ideal if your real tree has a very thick trunk, or your normal tree is small (under 6 ft) and the weight is too much.
A three-car locomotive sits on the track, featuring classic Christmas colors of green, red, and white. It’s entirely battery-powered, so there are no cords to deal with. The train moves around the track, making real train noises!
All aboard, we’re headed to Christmas in style this year!
