very simply item --- seems expensive for what you get, but pricing is in line with all the Brio and Thomas products. Isn't much without the separate North Pole kit...
Very nice set. January 14, 2007

The Polar Express set is really unique. The train is beautiful; the bell is a fun feature, and I love the way the scenery works. It's really clever, I think, to have the snowman and tree hold up the houses. Very unique and distinctive!
The tunnel, like the Brio Mountain Adventure Figure 8 set's tunnel (which has the same shape but different coloration), is beautiful but a bit short. Our Maple Landmark Name Train and Little Engine That Could have clearance issues with it, but that's pretty common since they're so tall.
My big beef with this set is that there are no magnets on the engine. In order to connect the engine to another train, one must hook the engine to its tender and use the tender for the connection. A bit frustrating, particularly if you're a kid who just wants to hook a train up.
Still, as I said, this set is very unique, and its combination of features makes it irresistible desipte the drawbacks.
We love it January 12, 2007

We love the Brio train set, and are in the process of collecting a Brio set for each of our sons birthdays and Christmas'. The wood is soft enough so that a child that is rough with it can toss it around and it may get dented, but doesnt break. The only negative with this particular set is that the plastic scenery pieces dont seem to stand well in the wooden stands. Other than that, we are loyal Brio buyers because you can collect to your hearts content and always know that they will mix and match with the other sets.

The house a 2 dimensional cut sheets of plastic with an image only on one side.
The train can only really be pulled and not pushed because the car behind the engine has a different kind of link that makes it awkward to push.
Everything else is standard Brio. If you decide to buy this, you definately want to get the North Pole set with the Christmas tree as it makes a wonderful sound.
