Thomas and Friends Wooden Railway Thomas the Tank Engine
Thomas and Friends Wooden Railway Thomas the Tank Engine
Thomas the Tank is the signature bright-blue engine in the Thomas the Tank series. He does light yard work and pulls small passenger cars, such as Annie and Clarabel. Based on the award-winning television series Shining Time Station by the Reverend W. Awdry, the Thomas the Tank train system fulfills all of a child’s choo-choo dreams. Each vehicle has a different name, character, and face. It is wooden and 2 inches high with black plastic wheels. The magnetic bumpers at the ends of each vehicle make linkup easy. Children will become friends with each one, developing not only imaginative play but social skills and new motor and cognitive skills as they mature. –Sandy Hirsch
User Ratings and Reviews
5 Stars A Really High Quality Train
I’ve purchased several wooden trains for use on my son’s wooden railway and I have been quite impressed with the quality of the Thomas and Friends Trains. They are very well made and use large plastic wheels that run easily over small imperfections in the track.
As with most character goods, the Thomas and Friends Trains come at a premium price, but careful shopping can sometimes net a bargain and I recommend you seek these toys out over lower priced rivals. They are worth the extra time and trouble to get.
4 Stars Trains get uears of use
My son got this wooden train as part of a set on his first birthday. He is now eight, and although there’s a little paint missing, the engine is still going, and the Thomas trains still hold tremendous appeal. The wooden tracks are nice to play with, although I wish the whole thing were better engineered, so that when you pulled a train around the tracks, they actually stayed on better. In the end, they are pretty indestructible and wooden toys just have a kind of feel that you can never get with plastic.
5 Stars Thomas the Train
A must have with your Thomas collection. Easy to hook up with other trains and very durable.
5 Stars Excellent little toy
When I bought it online I thought it was a bit expensive. But it’s good quality and my daughter loves it! She takes it everywhere with her and is constantly asking for “Thomas”!
1 Star Pretty small
ok i never imagined how tiny this train was, until I saw it. Definitely not worth the money. I wouldn’t have bought it. And my son was not that much interested in a small thomas whatsoever.
