Summary: Best Thomas I ever bought.
Comment: Bought my son this Thomas the Train wooden railway toy and we haven't looked back since that day. My son is now a huge Thomas the Train fan and you can't beat the unbelievable value this train set has to offer--all the tracks and three trains (one is a powered Thomas that can pull as many trains as you can hook up to it) for a great low price. We absolutely love it and recommend it to any Thomas the Train child.

Summary: Just what I was looking for!
Comment: I've always wanted a train around the tree, but feared my kids would destroy it. This one is perfect! They have been playing with it all year long! (my girls are ages 5 and 2)

Summary: Fun Toy
Comment: I bought this for my DS 2nd B-day. He loves having a motorized Thomas. IT does great pulling things on flat surfaces. It does have a little bit of a hard time pulling multiple cars up hills. I bought this on clearance after christmas as it was cheaper than buying the regular battery operated Thomas. It goes through quite a few batteries, we change them about once a week, this may be due in large part to my sons age as he doesn't quite understand that you have to turn Thomas off when you are done playing with him. He has been very durable though. He got a regular Thomas a few weeks earlier for Christmas and the wooden train does show considerably more wear than this train. This train is made of all metal and quite a bit heavier than the little wooden ones. He also loves the musical car and turns it on and dances as he watches Thomas drive around the track. I am very glad we purchased this as it has increased the amount of time my son spends playing with his trains.
This little Thomas is very good at driving on almost every surface and will travel quite well on carpet. As a result, he does drive off the track if the angle is too sharp.

Summary: nice toy, engine broke after 4 weeks
Comment: This is pretty typical Thomas stuff. Nothing terribly exciting, but the battery-powered engine is fun. Unfortunately, ours broken after a few weeks, and we returned it to Learning Curve for a replacement. They only have a 90-day warranty, so you'd better hope that it breaks quickly. The rest of the set is fine - the cars are plastic, and the track is what you'd expect.

Summary: Train for the tree
Comment: I purchased this train for around the tree. It is a good train and I like that the Thomas car is battery powered. I would recommend it. Just be advised that you may need to add more pieces to the track if you have a larger tree.
