I recommend you look to set 6497, Twisted Time Train (if I recall the title
correctly). It isn't a train, i.e. for use on rails, but it does include a few
moving bits, including a stack at the front that pops up and down as the train
is pushed along. It was on serious discount at WalMart around xmas/boxing day,
so there might be one or two still floating around. You may only need the
instruction book.
