It is deliberate motion and has floating impression. The elaborate model train that the doll's having gotten on the inside runs toward the clockwise, reverse of propellers rotation. The toy-train has an interval between carriage and locomotive per rotation. There is a fascinating motion in this kinetic sculpture.
