Plarail is a long-running series of railroad toys which originated in Japan more than 50 years ago. Children can connect the rails and add scenery parts in any way they like, then run the trains on the tracks for unlimited hours of play.

Plarail, pronounced in English as Play rail is a toy train and plastic track system made by Tomy and introduced in Japan in 1959. It was expanded into a battery-operated electric toy train system in October 1961. Plarail is not compatible with most other brands of model railway, although as it has a similar rail gauge to the wooden toy train systems, rolling stock may run on both systems to some degree.

In 1995, a computer simulator software titled Digital Plarail was released for Windows 3.1/95, which allowed virtual layouts to be built and played with using Plarail products. Expansion packs covering different areas were later released. Games on consoles have also been made, such as "Densha Daisuki: Plarail de Ippai", published by Tomy in 1998 for the original PlayStation, "Kids Station: Plarail Tetsudo Monoshiri Hyakka", published by Atlus Co. in 2002 also for PlayStation and "Plarail: Yume ga Ippai!" released in 2002 by Tomy for PlayStation 2.

Kids Station - Plarail - Tetsudou Monoshiri Hyakka is a collection of lots of mini games like answer questions, drive a train, match the proper train with a shadow, build your own train, select the proper train using just a piece of the image, etc. The game also got information about japanese trains and routes.
