| Toy Description A single motorized engine sets this busy Thomas the Tank Engine construction site in motion. Switch it on and watch as Thomas picks up a load of plastic rocks, rides up the elevator, and drops the rocks down a spiraling chute. Cranky the Crane then lifts the rocks and sends them down another chute. From here Lorry the Loader scoops them into a holding bin, and the whole sequence begins over again. As long as the vehicles are positioned correctly on the track, the sequence runs remarkably smoothly, and it is truly fascinating to watch. This is not a hands-on toy, however. Once children switch on the engine, there is little else for them to do. The sequence cannot be altered, for instance, nor can the track be rearranged in any other configuration. Adult assembly is required, and the manufacturer includes a cautioning statement about the risk of hair entanglement in the motorized engine. |

Ingenius Toy Kids and adults alike enjoy this toy in our house! While the kids are playing with it as a toy, the adults are watching the mechanism of the toy and appreciating all of the the ingenuity involved. It's the new favorite toy for us all and is the center of discussion with visitors.
A fun pain! I'm so glad I found this online...we've been trying to figure out how to put it back together again as it's been in the loft for a year! I've been looking for a picture so we can get it just right (it won't run otherwise!)
Loads of Fun My husband and our grandsons enjoy playing with this. They have set up the Big Loader and the Big Big Loader together. They sometimes want to be more hands-on, but this really runs all by itself. Some of the components seem to come apart easily when they play with it, but they seem to enjoy putting it back together. It does take up a lot of space, but like any train set, it is better if you can leave it set up. Buy this on sale. Don't pay full price. |
