Did you have an electric train? I still have my old FLEISCHMANN HO train set.
I also fondly remember playing for hours with my electric slot car racing set.

No never had an electric train set but I would've liked one, we didn't have a basement to set one up. When I got old enough to use one with care I was more into making bows and arrows and slingshots and throwing knives. My friends and I use to build go carts as we had a big hill with little traffic to race on. One time I took the motor off our lawnmower and put it on the go cart. I used two pulleys with one on a stick bolted to the frame so I could tighten the pulley. I could get up to 30 MPH.
I was also into building model plastic planes and ships.
I have a feeling a lot of our toys wouldn't be tolerated today.
