This review is from: Bachmann Trains Snap-Fit E-Z Track Track Accessory Set (Toy)
i like this product because of the extra tracks. I needed them to add something different beside the oval it was going in. what i didn't like was the piers.. the piers were plastic and some of them didn't fit the track properly.

Once I added up how much I was about to spend on extra track to avoid being stuck with the simple "circle" track that comes a basic set we purchased...i realized this FIGURE-8 kit was about the same price! Plus you get all those piers to make an elevated track. I did not pay too much attention to the extra building and car that came with the set - but once out of the box, they were a big hit. The train station lights up from the inside once connected to the power source (although a longer wire would have been nice). It's otherwise the typical lame plastic - but it's thick, and really not that bad. You know what I mean. The little handle car on the other hand, is awesome. It has two figures that pump the car handle as it moves across the track. It is totally cool, and a real eye-catcher! Also, I was surprised how well piers fit. That's actually why I felt compelled to write a review, because I had such a different opinion compared to the previous comments. The piers actually hug the tracks from the sides (you have to slide them on), and they also have a tilting top to adjust to the track. They also come with an optional wider base you can use too, if you are building on carpet, etc. I would say the quality overall is in the good to great range, and the handle car quality and function is impressive. It's way better than buying extra track alone...for nearly the same price. I would buy it again.

Good kit that benefits from tweaking,

I received this set to expand my Bachmann oval track kit. Two problems that came up right away were: the track didn't fit into the brackets for the support piers, and there was no track plan in the box (or in the model railroading guide that came with the kit). We found that squeezing the sides of the tracks while inserting them into the brackets solved the first problem. We had to guess at the layout by using the photo on the box. There are 3 straight tracks above and below where the track crosses over. We started with the center piers and worked our way down each way so as not to begin the piers in the wrong place. All of this could have been avoided if Bachmann included a track plan. Other things that came up: our train had plenty of clearance when passing under the overhead track, so we removed the two tallest piers and started the piers one track later, making the climb a little shorter for our train. We were disappointed that our train could not make the climb with all its cars - we had to run a short train with this layout. Also, the gandy dancer that comes with the kit is very nice, but sometimes can't make the climb - its wheels just spin and spin. Overall, the kit is workable, and we enjoy the figure 8 layout.
