This 5-car pack rocks! It includes:

Toby
Oliver (Discontinued)
Fred (Rare/Discontinued/this set only)
Bertie
Henrietta (SUPER RARE/dicontinued/in this pack only!)

It's retail value $49.99! A Great deal:)

If you want to expand your train set 5 cars at a time, this pack features Henrietta, who has been discontinued for a long time, and is now only available in this pack. If your child enjoys acting out the Thomas & Friends episodes, Henrietta is Toby's coach. Like Toby, she is old-fashioned and has seen better days. Not many passengers ride in her, but she doesn't mind. She's mainly only used for giving passengers tours of the Sodor farm.

If you missed Henrietta a long time ago, then this pack is a MUST HAVE! Don't forget, since Toby is included in this pack, he and Henrietta will make a great team!

Thomas and friend toys are in the top 10 choice for children with autism. It helps them with their hand and eye coordination. Parents have a hard time of finding information in order to help their children - so passing news along.

My son has enjoyed trains since 6 months to current. I tell his grandparents that for picking out presents - if they get a "Thomas and Friends" toy, it will be enjoyed and played with.

My four year old loves all his trains and the fact that they have names and personalities and he sees them on his Thomas DVDs is even better. Thumbs up for all these trains!

Ok, first off, let's get one thing straight: Bertie is not a train, she's a bus. This is lame.

However, my boy likes these guys a lot. We also have a battery powered Salty (highly recommend at least one battery powered engine) that he hooks these guys up to, and we have lots of fun pulling them all around the track.

My son is going to be 4 years old and he has just started to watch Thomas & Friends. This was a great starter pack for him. Instead of buying the expensive Thomas wooden train tracks, we got a cheaper set from Ikea - which work fine - for a fraction of the price. The only thing was, I thought all of these trains came with collectors cards as pictured but they don't. I inquired with Amazon about this and they sent me a new gift pack right away. That order didn't come with cards either. I also purchased seperate Thomas trains - no cards. I'm not sure where they are supposed to come from. My son would love them. They tell a little story about each train.

We saw this set had the hard to find engine Oliver... we had to have that for our son. He loves all the vehicles, and connects them in long lines. He doesn't understand the magnets, and gets confused sometimes with Henrietta, because she doesn't have a face to show which way to point her. Any car or engine with a face, my son (21 months) can line up correctly on either track or on a table. So, the coal car Fred is nice... something different from an engine, but has a face so he can couple them himself.

Getting 5 vehicles together is a great cost savings too. You get Oliver, Toby, Henrietta, Fred, and Bertie the bus. All have couplers on front and back except Bertie. He only has a coupler on the back. Toby and Henrietta have solid white roofs. I was concerned these would chip and mark like the Thomas & Friends Wooden Railway System: Toad we had gotten to go with the Oliver engine. So far, they don't have a mark on them, and they've been played with just as much. So, RC2 must have improved their white paint quality or something.

Wooden Thomas cars. Many discontinued cars in this pack. My son is a major Thomas fan and loves this set. A bargain as many of these cars sold individually would cost $12 plus each.

Great quality set, makes an excellent addition to my children's play table. I have since found Henrietta for sale without the set at a store

Purchased for my nephew. He has a great collection of these trains and they are great quality and very durable.
