Thomas & Friends Motorized Toy Train Engines for preschool kids ages 3 years and older

giftee loves it

My son has a Thomas and Friends Trackmaster set, and I have been on the hunt for more trains and tracks to go with the original Trackmaster. This one seems to work well. his one seems to work well. While I dislike the fact that many of the sets have another Thomas, I cannot deny that the trains work well on his original trackmaster, since I am not fond of the new tracks. Please note that on the original track set this train does well; however, on the flex-track, it has issues, so my son and I have removed the flexi-track to accommodate this train.Fiery Flynn moves very fast! It is a sturdy train and outshines some of the others that my son has collected. Thus far, Flynn is his favorite.

My granddaughter loves this new addition to her set of Thomas engines. The battery switch is easy to operate, even for a 3 year old, and she has also figured out to attach and detach the pull-along car. Changing out batteries is a bit cumbersome because you need to use a screwdriver. She plays so often with her trains that mom has invested in rechargeable batteries !

This is another piece I got to go with trackmaster tracks . the ladder will raise and swivel. It is plastic but sturdy. It is motorized and can be used on tracks or on a hardwood floor. Idk how it would do on carpet. But it is a great addition for any Thomas train lover.

My 4-year-old is obsessed with anything related to trains, especially Thomas & Friends, so this fire engine was an instant hit. He recognized the character right away from the show and was so excited to see it actually move on its own. He plays with it constantly—on tracks, off tracks, even just rolling it around the floor by hand—and it’s held up surprisingly well through all kinds of rough play.As a parent, I’ve been really impressed with how solid it is. It’s been dropped more times than I can count, sometimes thrown (both intentionally and unintentionally, during extra enthusiastic play), and it’s still running perfectly. The details are nice, and the moving parts haven’t loosened up or broken off like I’ve seen happen with other similar toys. I also like that it runs on regular batteries and doesn't go through them too quickly.It’s been a fun addition to the little train world he’s built up and fits in well with the rest of the pieces from the same line. Definitely one of those toys that ends up in the daily rotation.

Flynn is my boy! I was chilling in my room the other day (jamming on my xylophone to some Super Simple Songs) and just watching this Choo Choo rock it around the track. He puts out fires, it's no big deal. Just saving lives in Sodor, it's not like he's getting jobi wood from those a-holes over the Shake Shake Bridge. Seriously though, Thomas is overrated. Flynn gets things done. Get the real deal, no contest, most selfless, be there for you in a pinch, best engine on Sodor. Do it.

So he has 6 of them now most of them I get at target for $9.87 however I haven’t seen this one at my targets or Walmart... it’s a fire truck what else can be said. He runs through batteries every 2-3 days he loves these things so much... just note the sound is annoying to mom and dad but the kids love it and you can figure out what piece of furniture it’s under if it’s running...if your kid hasn’t gotten the Thomas bug don’t start them on it but they do have the non motorized ones if you want something quiet

My 2.5 year old loves this. He chose it and enjoys playing with it, though he doesn’t use it a lot. The connecting pieces are made of plastic and I worry they will soon break as he takes them apart every time he plays and wants them on and off constantly. Overall a cute train.
