Choo! Choo! There's hours of fun right around the bend with this Deluxe Wooden Railway Set. Everything you need to recreate an amazing train world is included. There are ascending tracks to move trains overhead, plus a spacious Roundhouse engine shed. Dozens of tracks comes in both curves and straight lines, and trees, workers and traffic signs add to the realism.

Set also includes multi-piece trains, magnetic-tipped cranes, switches, T-junctions for passing lanes, suspension bridge, trestle bridge and roundtable. Build new configurations every time! 138 wooden pieces in all.

Great train set for a kid interested in trains

We bought this train set at first because we didn't want Thomas the Train, but we wanted something durable. We have a few Melissa & Doug toys, and they are really well-built. Our son LOVES this set. It comes with a few different train configurations to get started, but even at two years old, he is starting to develop his own configuration. We build our tracks on our really old, low quality carpet, so we don't have to worry as much about the train tracks coming apart, but you can invest in some SureTrack if that might be a problem. One thing that is hard for us is that the elevated portion of the track falls easily (because of the lack of stability on our carpet and the lack of self awareness of a two-year-old). We haven't used the bridges that often unless they are shored up against some furniture. All in all, the train set is exactly what we wanted, mostly track, some trains, and very few filler pieces (trees, signs, people, etc.)

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.

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.

Great option if u dont want to spend the $$ on Thomas

I highly recommend this product to anyone who wants to get a wooden train set. There is absolutely no reason to spend the $$ on a Thomas wooden train set. You can interchange w/ any of the other wooden tracks and my son uses the wooden thomas the trains on this one. Recommend the Maxim mountain accessory.
