The first model trains were created by the German company Märklin as tinplate trains with clockwork wind-up mechanisms in 1890. In 1896, American engineers Carlisle & Finch created the first electric-powered train using a 10-volt motor and liquid chromite batteries. Then in 1901, Joshua Lionel Cowen created the first true electric model train called the Electric Express for a New York toy manufacturer window display. This launched the model train industry that grew to its hight point in the 1950s. Model trains become a defining part of American youth culture. The image of the train around the base of the Christmas tree became an iconic image of Americana. That history and legacy is still alive, and today once again the electric train is seeing a resurgence in American life.
