Product Description
Stop Thomas in his tracks! Little engineers can turn Sir Topham's Hatt to activate the bumper and stop battery-powered trains. When Thomas gets another useful assignment, they can set him back into motion again with the push of a button.
Battery-operated Thomas features a working headlight, a reliable "4-wheel-drive" engine that keeps him rolling along for hours of fun and free-wheeling capabilities for non-battery play. Straight track pieces flip over to reveal a new road design for even more play options. Special traction rails give extra grip to battery-powered engines. 26-piece set includes one battery-powered, die-cast Thomas, an exclusive yellow caboose, 20 track pieces, a bridge, Sir Topham Hatt Track piece, a tree and a sign. Requires one "AA" battery (included).

Good value
By k hansford
This set is a good value for the price considering a battery power train alone costs around $[...] to start. The track is of good quality although does not fit easily with our existing other wooden track (from Ikea- great quality). Thomas comes with a caboose and they derailed at each corner as the turns were too tight. We tried to supplement with other track to widen the curves but they did not fit together well. After my 2 year old fit a couple of other cars making it four long, it seemed to do well. I guess the weight slowed down Thomas enough and held it down during turns. My son loves to turn the switch for Sir Topham Hatt on and off. Overall a good track and great starter set for anyone looking to start with Thomas. Just a few bugs though.

great starter set
By T. Le
If you've decided to buy Thomas brand track this is a nice starter set, but you should also invest in some expansion sets like the Freddie Exp Set, the Cross & Switch Exp Pk, Conductors Figure 8 Exp Pk, male & female Track adapter pks. For Thomas trains, I bought most of mine on ebay new.

By Proud mom in WA
I really wanted a battery-powered train for my son, and at the time, Thomas and Friends train sets were the only ones I could find that were fairly priced. This train set is "okay". I read reviews that this falls off the track while going around corners and to buy a couple more train cars to prevent this from happening. I purchased two more train cars at the same time as purchasing this train set. Yes, it helps having about 3 cars being pulled to avoid the falling over around corners, BUT this also creates more weight for the engine to pull, thus creating a problem pulling all that weight up the hill to go over the bridge! The train set is also a lot smaller than I anticipated. The train engine and cars are about 2 inches long. The track itself is about 1.5 inches wide. I am a little disappointed in this product. I plan to look into GeoTrax train sets now- which were recommended to us by a friend.
