Does a Brio-compatible electric Christmas train exist?

Just that, really. I'd like to be able to set up the sturdy brio train track around the Christmas tree and have a little battery operated train tootling along on it. But I can't bloody find one!

Please help me ConfusedConfused

Can you make the non Christmas brio electric train Christmassy with some glittery tape and tinsel? The battery doesn’t last long though

There are loads of Brio electric trains, some are rechargeable. Were you looking for a specific Christmas decoration? Just buy a red one and add some shiny atickers?

We have a red one bought for just this occasion. It's not particularly festive, except it's red 🤷🏼‍♀️😂

Thank you! Because they're so expensive I didn't really want to pay £20+ for something not quite right if the thing that I wanted DID exist. I really like this John Lewis one but it's out of stock https://www.johnlewis.com/john-lewis-partners-battery-operated-train/p4235443?&tmcampid=81&semcid=JLE17988EMWBISConfirmm20211115&ssemuid=&semlid=BODY

Thank you for all your suggestions- Im probably going to buy a non Christmas train and then the BigJigs Christmas trains for it to pull. In case anyone is interested in my saga 🤣

Might even spruce up the train with tiny nail decals as suggested

I remember that the Thomas trackmaster trains were the same gauge as the wooden brio/ikea track. You can get battery powered trackmaster trains if you have a thomas obsessed child.
