Lemax Caddington Village: Adding movement to your scene
Lemax Caddington Village is a treasure trove of Victorian elegance, weaving a tapestry of festive nostalgia to make a popular choice among collectors, and here we take a closer look at the pieces to help bring your village creation to life.
Caddington Village pieces create a festive decor for your home, and they also bring the joy of a bygone era when villagers would be plying their trades or being out and about enjoying themselves at this time of year.
We think these transport-themed Caddington pieces which have dynamic motion and charm, will bring a lively pulse to your village, whether that’s from the romance of horse-drawn sleighs to bustling trolleys.
We also love the impressive Angel Wings piece with a child creating a perfect snow angel with moving arms and legs!
Here, the Christmas.co.uk team explores three transport-themed pieces that bring movement and nostalgia to your Caddington Village.
Jolly Trolley: A festive journey
The Jolly Trolley is a Sights & Sounds piece which captures the spirit of Victorian travel. It’s 8.2 cm (H) x 16.1 cm (W) x 5 cm (D) and the train is driven by Santa cheerfully wishing everyone a happy Christmas as it glides along the track with a gentle hum. The red carriage portrays children in festive hats to help deliver a cosy ambience. We think this battery-powered piece is a collector’s delight to bring eye-catching movement.
Victorian sleigh ride: Romantic winter travel
The Victorian Sleigh Ride is great way to recreate a Victorian winter journey with two parents and a girl, plus the driver. This resin table piece is 9 cm (H) x 22.7 cm (W) x 5.7 cm (D) and we love the horse drawn sleigh and the detail of the travellers’ clothes, the horse’s harness and the sleigh’s runners. The colours and sculpting make it a perfect addition for collectors looking for a touch of nostalgia.
Christmas van: Nostalgic deliveries
The Christmas Van adds a vintage charm to your village. At 7.8 cm (H) x 11.9 cm (W) x 5.4 cm (D), this classic VW van with a Christmas wreath and a festive slogan, has a Christmas tree and wrapped presents on the roof rack, to bring a touch of nostalgia. The design makes it a great choice for placing close to shops or homes.
Scene suggestions: A bustling village hub
There’s a lovely opportunity to create a lively street scene with the Jolly Trolley and its track to connect key buildings like The Bell & Feather pub, a 17.5 cm tall inn with glowing windows. You could also place the Victorian Sleigh Ride near the inn to depict guests arriving, while the Christmas Van can be parked by Stocking Stuffer Gifts, a 20 cm tall shop, to suggest either festive deliveries or a last-minute dash to find stocking fillers! Consider using Gas Lantern Street Lamps, each 10.5 cm tall, to enrich the Victorian ambiance.
You could also consider adding the Angel’s Wings, a 12.5 cm tall scene of a child with moving arms and legs creating a snow angel. There’s also the Snowball fight!, set of 4 to add playful energy. We also love the Assorted pine trees, set of 21 which can be used to frame the scene, adding a natural winter touch.
Moving Caddington Village pieces adds dynamism
The Jolly Trolley, Victorian Sleigh Ride and Christmas Van bring the dynamic charm of Victorian transport to Caddington Village, infusing your Christmas display with movement and nostalgia.
Their intricate details and festive energy create a vibrant hub, whether that’s the trolley delivering people or the van delivering festive goods, these pieces will help transform your home into a living Victorian hamlet.
