The Mehano Railway is produced by the company of the same name from Slovenia. The company was founded in 1952 and was originally called "Mehanotehnika": since then it has been developing an extensive range of toys and collectible models. Under its current name, the company became known in 1990, and although in 2008 it filed for bankruptcy, to this day continues to be active. Among her children's products is a large selection of traditional and electronic toys, many of which are designed to help develop the child’s mental abilities. The company's assortment also has high-precision train models that amaze with their capabilities and workmanship.
Railways from Mehano
At the moment, the company offers three quality lines, each of which belongs to a certain price category. They are called Prestige, Hobbies and Trains. The last of them is the most modest children's railway Mehano, and the first is the most advanced, premium, with complex controls and audio speakers. The competing companies are Fleischmann, Märklin, Roco and others, however, since no other company produces models of modern high-speed trains, the brand continues to have a strong market position.
Premium Railway Mehano
This line was a rather late inclusion in the company's products. Its distinguishing features include the sometimes unusual selection of prototypes, such as the American steam locomotive Camelback or the high-speed train Thalys. Each year, the company introduces new models, many of which are related to the modern railway industry. So, for example, in 2007 an excellent version of the German Intercity-Express was released, which also comes to Russia. The Mehano collection railway is famous for the world's largest range of high-speed train models, among which you can find the TGV Duplex and many others. The European line offers products with advanced features such as DCC (sophisticated digital control), audio speakers with a wide range of sounds, LED light sources. In general, these models are distinguished by excellent build quality, well-coordinated work and excellent detail.
Children's line Mehano
A landscape railway is one of the most popular starting kits, which includes a locomotive, several types of cars and 3-5 meters of rail (depending on configuration). On the manufacturer’s website, the lineup contains about 12 similar positions with slight differences in composition. On the Russian market, you can buy these and other sets, as well as purchase additional elements: cars, rail elements, landscape accessories (bridges, barriers, etc.). The children's line is distinguished by a good combination of price and quality, offering the opportunity to expand the basic kit due to the many available parts. The starter kit already contains a large number of elements, including houses, trees, tunnels and much more. This is a huge field for imagination, where a child can create his own unique railway route and change the landscape at his own discretion. Power is supplied from the mains; movement can be controlled from a remote control attached to the structure.
Mehano for all ages
In the assortment of the company you can find both toys for children's fun, as well as serious collectible models, which can be considered one of the best in their category. The Mehano railway stands out thanks to the company's rich experience and a huge number of variations in each of the three proposed lines. The premium models of steam locomotives and modern high-speed trains can rightly be considered the pride of the company and a great gift for collectors.
