Board and Track Provide Real-World Setting
Providing a colorful, real-world environment, the Ride Around Town Train comes with a large landscape board setting. This highly detailed melamine-coated board features lakes, bridges, pastures, and an airport runway. There's even an area to place a plastic mounting setting with a moveable crane and working winch.
Designed to link all the areas of the board are a multitude of train track pieces, ranging from straight and curved to inclined. The small wooden track pieces fit together with simple tongue-and-groove connections, allowing for easy, custom assembly. Support beams and bridges make it possible to arrange the track in a raised, crisscrossing configuration for multi-level fun.
Quality Hand-Painted Figures and Vehicles
The Ride Around Town Train offers a variety of colorful pieces to encourage imaginative play. Kids can place hand-painted wooden figures of farmers, construction workers, and doctors throughout town while racing the ambulance, fire truck, and magnetically connected train cars along the track. Sign posts, trees, and farm animals add to the fun of populating the landscape. When it's time to take the fun vertical, an airport with helipad allows kids to fly an airplane and helicopter for jet-setting excitement.
The Ride Around Town Train is compatible with other wooden train sets for added fun. Kids can combine the Thomas and Friends train set, as well as the Brio wooden train set, to create the ultimate bustling community.
Tabletop Setting Raises Playtime off Floor
To keep playtime off the floor, the Ride Around Town Train features a large table for display. Measuring 49 inches long by over 34 inches wide, the table stands 16 inches high so that kids can be closer to the action while sitting. The MDF-constructed board also includes T-molded edges to help prevent chipping while providing a smooth, safe surface for kids to play on. As an added convenience, the Ride Around Town Train comes with a storage bin to house all the pieces underneath the table when not in use.
Our testers found the Ride Around Town Train set to be well-built and fun to play with. Using the detailed, step-by-step instructions, assembling the table required less than 30 minutes to complete. The artisanship and variety of the hand-painted wooden vehicles and figures added a charming touch that seems to be missing from most plastic toys. Parents will likely appreciate the simple, heirloom quality that the set offers while kids will enjoy playing pretend in the various environments.
The Kidkraft Ride Around Town 100 Piece Train Set and Table is backed by a 90-day warranty.

My kids recieved this as a gift from their grandparents. It is fantastic! Very sturdy, looks great, everything you need for a train table! This company shipped it very fast and packaged it well. Assembly was time consuming, but kinda fun to set everything up! The best part is that it goes with Thomas the Train and Brio stuff, so you can mix it up. 5 stars all the way around!

This set claims to be compatible with Thomas Train. Well for the most part it is, but not 100%, especially if you plan on using Thomas Engine motorized. There are some other drawbacks as well. The track is metric and slightly narrower than true Thomas track so Thomas cars don't fit completely down into the grooves. The supplied Chinese cars that come with this set do fit better, though their quality is not even close as good as Thomas brand. The bridge in the center of photo shown is positioned too close to the "downhill" slope of track and taller cars will not fit underneath it. Because the track is slightly narrower, motorized Thomas Tank Engine, especially, tends to run off of the track and will not stay on. I removed the "rubber band" edging on the front wheels only which allowed more slippage and kept Thomas Engine on the track more reliably. I know this set is not really intended per say for Thomas otorized engine, but a Thomas brand set would work much better being Thomas brand track is wider, and deeper grooved. You get what you pay for as they say, and if I had to do it over again, I'd spent the extra money and went authentic Thomas brand. Also, the crane has a small wooden dowel that sticks into a hole with no latching or locking it in so my two year-old pulls the crane out regularly. After using some extra Thomas track I had laying around, I modified the layout enough to position the bridge farther down toward the front over the flat portion of the "downsloped" piece so that the cars would fit under the bridge and then glued the entire set down to make it all permanent. If you're a handy type, you can tweak it to work decent, but if i had it to do over knowing what I know now, I'd just paid the extra for genuine Thomas brand stuff. The wheels ont the Chinese cars are not attached as well either as on the Thomas brand, so if you're like me with another smaller child to be in the room as well, you might want to avoid any possiblilty of loose wheels and stick with Thomas brand, which is much higher quality, and the wheels seem to be actually round, and attached in safer fashion. Other than that, my 2+ year old doesn't know the difference and has a ball playing all day with it. If you're just buying it to use the cars included as a push only set, it's definately fine for that.

BEWARE!
This train table is NOT Thomas compatable if you are using the motorized locomotives. I was very disapointed to discover this and had to change out all the track with Thomas track. Read more
