Great little train... but could use a slight redesign June 23, 2008 3 out of 3 found this review helpful
Watch Video Here: http://www.amazon.com/review/R51VB5O6EMO7Z This red engine has resparked my kid's interest (& me too) in his wooden train set. However, when it comes to climbing with more than 3 cars, the nose of the engine rises and then just loses traction with 5 cars or more. Our work-around is to add weight to the tip to keep the nose down. Tacky... but now my kid can pull 6-7 cars during climbs. We're using the Brio tracks, not sure if the (knurled) Thomas tracks would've provided more traction. If Brio were to perfect this train engine, I'd suggest weighing down the nose-tip area and maybe have at least two drive axles (the front axles in addition to the rear axles). It was a pleasant surprise to actually see batteries were included. However, I recommend replacing the two AA in the front engine with better ones... it's peppier around the tracks and better at climbing.
frustrated May 30, 2008 I bought this train along with tracks for my daughter, having the impression that Brio was a long-lasting brand. The first train only went backwards, the second stopped running the day we got it. After having exchanged the first for the second, I'm going to return it and consider switching brands. I'm very disappointed.
great toy but engine not very strong December 28, 2007 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
This is a wonderful toy. My son loves the remote control which allows you to make the train go forward, backwards, stop and turn on lights or horn. The sound effects are great. The only down side is that the engine is not powerful enough for the train to go up even a very small hill, it gets stuck half-way up.
Love it! October 27, 2007 5 out of 5 found this review helpful
This 'engine' brought to live my son's Brio set...he absolutely loves this train and can spend hours playing with it. It does have the capacity to pull over 6 and 7 carts that we have placed behind it... Highly recommended! (mommy and daddy love playing with it as well!)
