The device also comprises a dome-shaped coupling surface which is arranged on the magnetic element to be kept, by magnetic power, in engagement with a coupling surface of a coupling device of another toy vehicle. The fastening element is connected to the magnetic element and movably mounted on the toy vehicle such that the magnetic element with the coupling surface arranged thereon is freely pivotable at least about a horizontal axis extending transversely of the direction of motion of the vehicle.
