[4]While there were many toy train companies—the first electric train was exhibited at the 1893 World’s Fair in Chicago—Cowen’s invention beat them a11.probably because he tied it to Christmas and produced the toy villages and other things to put around the tree and the train.Still,competition has not stopped.Today there are many companies making toy trains of all sizes,some on tracks using electricity,some on the floor using wind-up springs(发条).
