4.0 out of 5 stars Add bridge-fun to your tracks, January 22, 2003

These supports are way better than the older Brio bridge supports. The main reason for this is the added size of the support that makes it harder to push over when your child is playing with trains on the bridge or nearby. Another nice feature is the anti-slip material on the top which gives you a better grip on the tracks. Finally, they look nice as well. Only bad thing about this development in Brio bridge supports is the added cost per support.
If you want to, you can stack these supports to build very high bridges. However, if you want to build multi-level bridges, I would recommend getting the green stacking track supports instead (Brio 33253) as these supports will give even better stability and also allow for several bridges at different levels crossing eachother, etc. The green supports are a little more expensive but I think they are worth it for multi-level bridges.

4.0 out of 5 stars Good Thomas Wooden Railway Replacements, October 21, 2005

This review is from: BRIO Super Supports (Toy)

I purchased the BRIO Super Supports in the hopes they would work better than the supports that came with my son's Thomas Wooden Railway set. The BRIO do work better and do not slide as much when my 2.5 year old kicks his track set. I highly recommend purchasing these supports especially if you have younger children using wooden tracks. It will save frustration on everyone's part.

If you're looking for a less expensive alternative to the Thomas train pieces, this is it! Brio is actually made by a company called Maxim so if you see that brand in your local store, don't be afraid to buy it - it's even cheaper! These supports are amazingly different than the Thomas version. They don't slide around as much and the tracks stay hooked together a TON better than the Thomas supports. We have both, and some of Maxim's as well and we have found that these perform tons better. And, less frustration for the child is a lot better than a name brand. Highly recommend!
