It’s a wonderful Christmas…decoration
The media could not be loaded. Super easy to set up. Click tracks together making sure that the joins are completely smooth and the area where you’re laying the track is completely flat and even, insert the batteries into the train, hook the carriages onto the back and away you go! Option to mute the sound is a great feature as it becomes irritating over prolonged periods and you get more life out of the batteries. Suitable for boys and girls, young and old. It’s the type of Christmas decoration that captures the magical part of Christmas. It’s a decoration that’s never going to go out of style, so if you’re like me and you don’t change your decorations with the yearly fashion trends, preferring a more traditional vibe you won’t be disappointed. At just £15 it’s a bargain and an investment piece, guaranteed for years of happy memories and a talking point for the many guests that come through your home at Christmas. It was reliable, ran without a hitch, throughout the entire Christmas period, in our house the 12 days of Christmas, 13th to the 24th and all the way up to the eve of epiphany, 5th Jan. Just brought it back out for its second appearance, put in the batteries and it’s as good as new. In order to safety store the set away year after year, be sure to hang on to the retail packaging because it fits far more snuggly in there, than any storage box packed full of other decorations. An additional tip is Duracell Optimum 100% extra life batteries, they’re without doubt the most cost effective way to use this decoration. If your turning the sound on sporadically here and there that doesn’t require much juice, however silent laps around the track does drain batteries quickly. I was waiting for a Prime subscription delivery of Duracell batteries when my train set originally arrived, so just to get started and test it out I used some Panasonic batteries and they died in less than 48hours. I replaced those with the Duracell as soon as they arrived and they lasted 22 days and still had life beyond that but it was time to pack the train away. I can fully recommend this product on value for money, reliability, functionality, sturdiness and customer satisfaction. I hope you all enjoy yours as much as we have.

Excellent train set and fantastic quality for price!
The media could not be loaded. This is an amazing train set!! Extremely pleased with the first purchase of it that I immediately bought another set to expand the track length and add another train onto the track. For the price paid, you just cannot complain at all. I paid £9.99 for each but noticed the price went down to £7.99 at one point.To explain against some of the contradictory/clashing reviews on here:1) The train tracks are thin plastic and will only be suitable for a flat surface under the tree, i.e. laminated floorboard. You could possibly use this on carpet but then it may not be as efficient. You could press down on the carpet prior to placing the track around the tree.Either way you are paying a small price for a complete train set so minimal room to complain. If you want a versatile train set that will run on all floor terrains then expect to pay for an expensive kit such as the Hornby trains.2) The train does have constant musical sounds, yes! How to fix this... TIP: Open the train apart using a small screw driver and simply snip off the two red wires leading to the speaker. Since this runs on a relay circuit board, it does not cut the power off if you do this so the train runs for longer (as it is no longer powering the speaker as well as the motor) and you don't have the annoying constant music on. Job time is about 3 minutes to do it. Quick and simple!3) Some people are saying the train goes off track. No, it does not!It will if you do not align the wheels on correctly to the track but this the same for any train set. If you have done this properly then it will not come off the track at all. It has never come off mine and that goes for two of these trains on the same expanded track.Overall rating: 5*Would I recommend: YES!

Amazing value!
For the money this was an absolute bargain! It brought a lot of joy and excitement to both abults and children in our house. The batteries lasted ages over the festive season. The track was reasonable easy to assemble and can be assembled in a circle or medium or larger oval for those with a smaller or larger space and just kinda slots together however it the track is a bit flimsy. We found it was fine once we set it uo and left it running round the track but as soon as my daighter came along and started picking the train up it wamted adjusting again lol grrr! That said the train is plastic but of really good quality, sturdyand makes train sounds and even my 70 year old mum thought it was magical. I would say if your on a budget this is a steal!!

Great set however missing wheels
The media could not be loaded. Great train at However one carriage is missing the front wheels. Only option is send the current one back for a new one. Would ideally like a new wheel set

Annoying Music but good train
Sturdy little train but track a little hard to connect. The train set is very well built and colourful. Just using the circle track fits perfectly under the tree in a corner. No children here so adult use only and looks the part.I liked the sound of the Choo Choo, the Bell, and Track sounds but the continuous 'music' is horrendous......What the hell is it ???????I have done like a previous reviewer did and took the base from the train by removing the tiny screw then very carefully prized away the red side holding the little inserted black prongs so the base came away.Inside the engine at the front 2 RED WIRES are showing leading to the speaker,,,, Cut both of these.Shame I have to loose train track sounds, choo choo & bell but no more horrendous none understanding music that grinds on the ears.Outcome is you still have the Red Light at the front and train works perfectly...GreatDO THIS AT YOUR OWN RISK

The tune
The track is a little fiddly to put together and cho cho sound is great but the tune that plays is annoying and frustrating after five minutes. If you were able to turn this off that would be great.
