Editorial Review
From the popular Thomas the Tank Engine book series and television's Shining Time Station, based on the Railway Series by Rev. W. Awdry, comes Douglas, one of the Scottish Twin steam engines. With a hardwood body, shiny black and maroon paint, a three-dimensional face, and a magnetically coupled 3-inch coal car, Douglas is ready to transport cargo. Six-wheeled Douglas can pull several freight cars along with his own coal car. Wheel axles measure 1 inch across and fit standard Brio wooden train tracks, and similar 1- to 1.5-inch grooved train tracks. Train buffs young and old will enjoy recreating authentic railway scenes as they collect these wonderfully crafted, classic train cars, bridges, ramps, tunnels, stations, and more from the Thomas the Tank Engine & Friends Wooden Railway System. --Kathryn Gustafson
Product Description
The antics of this Scottish twin, Douglas, who hates to be parted from his brother Donald, sometimes leads to trouble. They are hard workers who are particularly good at plowing snow. Donald sold separately.

Go Douglas February 14, 2004

Douglas is a good engine and this one is a great buy for your money. The magnets work very well and they don't come apart in a second like some other toys do. Douglas would not be complete without his twin Donald. These toys are very durable and kids can play with them for hours.

Kids think this toy is very cool. It's very enjoyable and it's durable. It's pricy for the size but good enjoyment is something that no amount of money culd buy.
Direct From Merry Ol' Scotland! May 15, 2003
Douglas is another in the fine line of Thomas the Tank Engine trains, and he upholds the tradition of fun, educational learning for children. Douglas has sleek black paint, a smiling face, and a large coal car that my son enjoys very much. Douglas has been an excellent addition to my son's Thomas collection. He is built strong for hours of use. Purchase Douglas or any of the fine Thomas trains. They are worth the money and your children will love them.

I noticed the numbers on all the engines so I bought this one so I could make it so my son could count the engines from 1-10. This is number 10. Only the coal cars are marked.
 Durability November 3, 2000

I have found that in a very very short time after purchase, the paint on all the Thomas & Friends trains I have purchased has badly chipped off. One would think for the price you pay the paint would last. Iwould recommend the age group to begin at at least 3, if not later asI do not think children any younger can appreciate the fact that thesetoys cannot be dropped into the storage box or anywhere without thepaint chipping off. I wish Learning Curve would use a more durablepaint, especially for the price of the trains and the fact that the company is appealing to children (only) 24 months and older! Further, the battery operated Thomas and Percy engines are difficult to turn off and on and also the paint chips off very quickly. I even had to return the battery operated Thomas soon after purchase as the screw to the battery compartment stripped and therefore I could no longer keep the compartment closed. With children who do not know to always turn the engines off when finished, the batteries are changed often and the compartment must be durable. Again for the price, one would think it could be more durable and perhaps have an autostop function (turns off after a few minutes of non-use)as with the Brio super red locomotive for the same price.
