Classic Retro Large Electric Toy Train Set With Tracks | Battery Operated

Hi, this is the second train set like this I have bought. The first one was broken by my grand daughter by tripping over the track in the first 10 minutes but this was not the fault of the train set. It's excellent value for the money (if a little flimsy) and entertained my grandson and his friends on his birthday. It has no sounds but has a small light at the front of the loco and rides quite nicely on the circular track. It's a little awkward to get the loco and trucks to sit properly on the track but once on it ran absolutely fine and only fell off when "assisted" by the youngsters. For simple entertainment value I would say it's hard to beat and now my grandson has more track he can run a slightly more interesting layout

I have been planning a Christmas Tree train set for a couple of years and this year decided to plan early. Having a 2 year old I didn't want to take spend much as there is a fair chance he will get his hands on it.I took the plunge on this set and a well packaged parcel turned up a couple of days later. On first inspection the track is a nice slightly flexible plastic and a big 1.8m circumference circle. The loco is pretty weighty for a plastic train and after popping the batteries in it ran very nicely around the track.All in all this is a nice set and well worth the money.

My grandson already had another 'classic train set' & loves it. I bought this 'classic train set' in the hope of extending the original with more track & another engine. While this second set is very good on its own, it is not compatible with the original, having different track & made on a different scale. This is disappointing, especially as both sets are shown as a possible combined purchase. My grandson now has two individual sets to play with!

The item arrived on time. In fact I missed the collection on Day 1, so they delivered it the next day again- thank you !!About the product:It was priced at about 5 GBP, so I didn't have high expectations, but it has turned out to be the worst buy.Firstly , the train works, the tracks are fine, but I just didn't like it because it smells burnt rubber after a 10 min run !. It hasn't stopped working, but I didn't expect this. lesson learnt ! Cheap plastic/rubber may be !Secondly, I had ordered ten other items along with this train, so didn't realise that I was paying another fiver for this particular delivery.Thirdly, it says "working lights" on the carton, really ? Would you have a "non-working" light category ? It doesn't have any sound, atleast mine doesn't.Overall, my opinion, it isn't worth at all. Disaster.

This is a fantastic set, my 3 year old is in to trains and it makes a really great present if you don't want to spend £££ on another model they might wreck. This is the one for you, it's reasonably priced and keeps the little ones entertained

Doesn't take much to break bits.

The media could not be loaded. I like this train. I bought one ages ago and I wanted some more wagons for it. I was surprised to find a set for less then I paid for at the time. To things into perspective a SINGLE Hornby play trains wagon (their kids set with plastic track and battery run) costs more then what you are paying for this entire set ok. By the way if you go on Aliexpress and look hard enough you can find other wagons, passenger coaches and engines. If you buy two packs you can make a sort of figure of 8 almost (see pic)

I bought this set as a christmas decoration to put around the tree and I must say I was pleasently suprised when it arrived a week after I'd ordered it. The track is very good because it's sturdy, stays flat on the ground and is really stable so the train runs perfectly. The train itself looks quite reallistic and is quite sturdy on the whole. For 8 pounds what more could one ask for?
