My son got this train from the "Fire Department Santa". He loves having additional trains. We haven't had any problems with the controller like other reviewers, ours had been fine. However, our advice for any parents out there with Geo Trax systems - RECHARGEABLE BATTERIES!!!! My two-year-old LOVES all of these but can wear out the batteries fast. Investment in rechargeables has been well worth it for us. The only negative I've notices with any of these trains is that when you have ramp kits and build inclines, don't make the incline continuous or put a lot of cars on the train. If the train goes slower as the batteries are dying or slows down from the weight of the cars, when it tilts to go up the inclines the cars all slide off and go crashing down. Otherwise, this has been fun for the ENTIRE family!!!!

Controller broke after one day also, like other reviewer. Not a battery issue. Will see what fisher-price customer service says. My son loves it, but if it won't work then its obviously not worth it.
