Editorial Review

Can this be called a mere train? In glorious yellow, red, and green with a silk ribbon tail, the exotic rolling Chinese Dragon is fit for royalty. With eight working wheels, this car can take the curves with the best of 'em. Its festive air makes the sturdy 4-inch wood car perfect for a parade or a carnival. Based on the popular Thomas the Tank Engine series by Reverend W. Awdry and the PBS television show Shining Time Station, the wooden railway system is compatible with other magnetic train sets. You can reenact all the exciting stories in the series or make up new ones. Thomas fans won't want to miss out on any of these fun, well-built railway characters. --Emilie Coulter

My grandson has been talking about the Chinese Dragon since we read about it in one of his favorite Thomas Books. He has even dreamed about finding it at my house! Since I couldn't disappoint him, I was so glad to find it at the Amazon site! Of all the Thomas trains he owns, I LOVE this one - it is most special. And everytime I watch him recreating the story when he plays with it, it makes me smile to know he remembers the fun times we have together.

My 3 year old grandson is a huge Thomas fan. He already has several of the engines, and this was on his list of "wants". I've found that all these engnes and train trucks by Learning Curve are extremely durable, having observed them falling from great heights, and being mistreated in 'accidents'. The educational value is also very high, as they become the stars in many imaginative stories and scenarios devised by the child. Also I was very happy with the quick delivery, packaging and customs clearance involved with this purchase.

This review is from: Thomas & Friends Wooden Railway - Chinese Dragon (Toy)

This is a fun piece with it's bright colors. It's sturdy and the wheels are flexible. I got it for my niece and she plays with it constantly. Great for collection for both adults and kids who are fascinated by trains.
