An excelent complement for my boy's track, the only complain is the car weight is light the barriers wont rise much.

I love this product. I've read the negative comments, but I don't see what the deal is. I've owned this product for 5 minutes & already I'm playing with it. It's a lovely addition to my collection which I've recently started. It works best if you run the train at the highest rate of speed. The gates don't work as well if the train is slow. Overall, it's a great, fun, exciting & entertaining product. It's extremly easy to assemble. For the most part this does come in one piece except for 4 small pieces which are nothing to put on. It would be nice if this made a warning sound for when the train approaches, in the process of crossing & for when it has cleared crossing. However besides that, it's still an awesome item to play with.

The Crossing gate lowers every time the train goes by but the gates do not stay down until the entire train passes. This is due to the pressure mechanism that lowers the gate when the train is present.I hope over time it will improve itself through use. I did not receive any instructions on this problem.
