What's great about this video is that it doesn't talk down to kids like so much children's programming. Excellent and informative.

This video shows great footage of toy trains, real subway trains and many others. It also had information on the history of trains, and how they can help the environment. The SONGS on this video are totally awesome! Kids will watch this over and over.

Our three year old son has loved this movie for the past six months. He is learning the "folksy" and sometimes familiar railroad songs. Footage of both real and toy steam engines, diesel electric, and subway trains. Even reinforce safety around train tracks. All done in a way that even parents don't mind it being played over and over and over and over.

This is my two year old's favorite movie. We have a VHS we inherited from my nephew, and are really hoping it doesn't break before we're finished raising toddlers! Like the other reviewers said, it doesn't "talk down" to the children, and the footage is really spectacular. I'm searching for more from this group.
