5.0 out of 5 stars Remote Control Fun, December 13, 2004

This train is a wonderful addition to our Geotrax setup. My 2-year-old has been pointing it out in the catalog for some time now. It consists of an engine (3 AAA batteries), a controller (3 AAA batteries) a dome seating car, a dome dining car (the tables are set), a piece of straight rail track and two rail end pieces (ramps).

The engine has already been dropped on numerous occasion and is working fine. The simple control is easy to use (my son keeps both of our remote trains running independently).

Unlike remote and powered trains for wooden sets, this one works fine in the off position. The wheels turn well for pushing for that hands-on experience.

If you have the main set with the controller holder, you can get sound effects from the train.

All in all, a very low-cost addition with lots of fun. I personally use rechargeable batteries (never had a problem with them in any toy). It is nice that for once the controller uses AA or AAA and not a 9V.

5.0 out of 5 stars Better than Thomas for young ones, November 19, 2004

Thomas is great but not very sturdy..And too expensive to keep adding, plus the pieces fall off, like the faces. So I tried this out and think it's great for my rough little boy who likes to throw or drop things on occasion.

Also I think you get more for your money with the geotrax system too. Who couldn't use a break on their wallet when they have kids.

The highland scenic train is another wonderful addition to the geo tract layout. My two grandsons are thrilled and I know they will stand up to a 2 year old and a five year old. All Fischer Price products can stand the test of many children and time.
