12v Train System
LEGO | Series
The 12v electric train system was introduced by LEGO in 1969 alongside their existing 4.5v line. The 12v system had metal conductor rails in the center of the tracks. The tracks were originally blue, but light gray rails with dark gray ties brought more realism in 1980 along with new remote control switch tracks, signals, and other accessories throughout the 1980s. Both the 12v and 4.5v systems were discontuned when the 9v system launched in 1991.
