electric train
Wired rail vehicle
An electric train is a toy train powered by electricity, typically running on a track with a transformer controlling speed and direction.
Model railroad enthusiasts collect and operate elaborate electric train sets with detailed landscapes and multiple locomotives.
The term also applies to full-scale trains powered by electricity rather than diesel or steam: The city's commuter rail switched to electric trains.
