They use freck'in wheels!
Trains run on tracks. The tracks are made up of a pair of parallel rails.

Tracks
Trains acquire traction to move along the tracks through the friction between the steel wheels of the train and the steel rails of the track. This friction allows the train to grip the track and propel itself forward. Additionally, some trains use electric motors or diesel engines to provide the necessary power for movement.
Models of most/all characters on the show are available. There are also remote control trains, push along trains and trains which move around customisable tracks.
Tracks
Train tracks are not magnetic. They are typically made of steel or iron. However, trains use magnets for various purposes, such as in braking systems and signaling. Magnets on the tracks can help control the speed and direction of trains, but the tracks themselves are not magnetic.
Trains are typically powered by electrical energy. This energy is converted into mechanical energy to move the train along the tracks. Some trains may also be powered by diesel engines, which convert chemical energy into mechanical energy.
Trains that run on tracks.
Magnetic trains, also known as maglev trains, use powerful magnets to levitate and propel the train along the track. This technology eliminates the need for wheels and tracks, allowing the train to move smoothly and quietly at high speeds. Unlike traditional trains that rely on friction between wheels and tracks, maglev trains float above the track, reducing wear and tear, and enabling faster speeds and more efficient travel.
