Editorial Review
Frighteningly high above a deep ravine, Thomas the Tank Engine peers over the edge, wondering how he will get to the station on time. He's saved only by the immediate construction of a bridge that gets him clickity-clacking across in no time. The Reverend W. Awdry created the Island of Sodor as a place for childhood imagination to run free with his Thomas the Tank Engine series of books. The Sodor Bay Bridge expands opportunities for dreaming and connects to any of the tracks from the Thomas Wooden Railway System. Two train trestle bridges connect to span 25 inches. Manufactured by high-quality toy maker Learning Curve, the bridge is sturdily made of wood with blue plastic supports to endure years of adventurous play. --Lynne Sampson

great bridge May 27, 2007
1 out of 1 found this review helpful
my 2yo twin boys are in love with this double-span bridge, which comes with 2 ascending tracks. the only caveat i have is that the two bridge pieces don't connect to each other (you need a male-male connector to do so, and that isn't included), and combined, the bridge & ascending track combo is too long for our nilo train table. so we just use the one track, or configure the tracks so that there's a bridge in 2 separate areas. otherwise the bridge is great - very durable and my boys love it.

I have three boys ages 12,6,and 2 and a half. All three boys enjoy playing together with there many Thomas pieces. This bridge stays together and can be used as a small bridge or both pieces as a large bridge without the two year old knocking it down easily. It makes building a more complicated track fun for the 12 year old without his younger brothers messing it up. A great addition to any set.
The greatest Thomas piece May 24, 2005

We have tons of Thomas wooden railway pieces. I can tell you that this is the one we use in every layout we build. It adds height ands is easy to fit into your layout. Sturdy and colorful too. I like to use it with the arched viaduct for a sturdy raised track that doesnt fall over.
The Bay bridge is a must March 5, 2004

Starting around age 2 the "World of Thomas" and his train friends became the biggest part of my son's days of play. If you are as deep into Thomas as my family is then the Sodor Bay Bridge is a must have. Hours and hours are spend pushing the toy trains over and under the bridge. Your first three starter purchases should be the trains, the tracks and then this bridge. Good Luck it is an expensive "world" your getting into!!!
I LOVED it ... and so did my nephew March 13, 2003

I ordered the bridge and then read the review that said the bridge didn't come with the ascending tracks. My trip to a local independent toy store confirmed the review. After purchasing additional tracks ... and driving 4 hours so that the tracks would make it in time for his 3rd birthday, he opened the box and I shocked to see the tracks he needed to connect the bridge to the rest of his set. I guess the manufacturer has addressed this issue....I played with it (the bridge, figure 8 set with battery powered engine, and additional tracks) for a good hour before realizing I was enjoying it more than him! The tracks are extremely durable. My nephew and his brother and sister all loved it.
