Customer Reviews
Pleased Grandma
Have never been disappointed in Melissa & Doug toys that I have bought for Grandchildren.

Hours of fun
I got this for my son's birthday. We were gonna get him a Thomas set since he loves Thomas so much but when I saw how much more you get for you're money from this set i got it instead. He LOVES it. You would never know it isn't Thomas tracks. It works with all his trains and provides hours of fun. I would recommend this product to anyone who's looking for a good quality train set.

Lots of track; not a lot of filler.
I'd have to say one of the best truths is that it really does come with practically 135 pieces of useful track and not a lot of filler such as trees and signs. I was also given a cheaper brand of track from a hand-me-down and it doesn't even compare. We bought this train set for our 3 year old's b.day and it was (and continues to be) a hit. I'm not sure who has more fun me (mommy) or my son. I'm quite sure that my 3 yr old and his little brother will be having fun with this for years to come. Highly recommend! I would also like to say, to those of you who are on the fence about whether to buy the more popular name brand tracks, save your money; use the savings to buy the name brand train that will be compatible with your M&Doug set.
