Vintage 1990s Thomas & Friends Wooden Railway – DONALD Engine (Learning Curve)

This is an original Learning Curve wooden Donald engine, one of the classic black Scottish twins from Thomas & Friends. These earlier wooden versions are beloved by collectors for their sturdier build, nostalgic facial styling, and the way they age with that perfect “played-with” charm. Donald is dated to the mid–late 1990s based on the style of wheels, face sculpt, and labeling — making him a true early-era piece. ⸻ ✨ Condition Shows visible playwear throughout: paint rubs, edge wear, small scuffs, and general finish loss — all consistent with authentic vintage pieces that saw some real childhood adventures. Wheels roll smoothly and magnets still attach. No major breaks, cracks, or structural issues. Great candidate for: • Completion of a vintage set • Replacement for a lost loved train • Display in a Thomas collection • Upcycling or restoration ⸻ 📏 Size Approx. 3” long Standard Thomas Wooden Railway scale Lovingly sourced and packed by Hazey Autumn — where every piece has a story worth keeping.
