Abstract (en)

A set of regular pieces 10, 10C and 10D are used to form a continuous toy track when joined together. The pieces can stack, or be joined together end to end and side to side using jig-saw connections formed on their sides. Ramp pieces 12C are included in the set, and fit to the regular pieces, to enable the track to be formed in a 3-dimensional manner. <IMAGE>
