Melissa & Doug Locomotive & Diesel Engine

I bought this for my 2 year old grandson for his birthday. He and his older brother already have a vast collection of Thomas the Tank. My son pointed out how he likes Melissa & Doug better because they look more like real trains. My two grandsons were having a grandtime pulling around his trains with the engines.They fit perfectly with their Thomas the Tank Wooden trains. I liked them so much I ordered some more Melissa & Doug trains just because. They are well made and cute.The trains also have two wheel trucks on the bottom so they can go around curved track so easily. I was very impressed with the quality.

Nice set of trains, not Thomas but very durable and little grandson can crash them and we are not worried of them breaking...good purchase

I really like Melissa & Doug products. These trains are cute and my son really likes them. The are on the larger side and the magnets don't hold them together as the smaller trains my son has. Despite this, I like them and would recommend.

We love Melissa & Doug products, but I was very disappointed in this one. The train looks great, and is very sturdy, but it's just too long, and even a bit too wide to fit our tracks (mostly by Maxim, with a few Melissa & Doug pieces). I really wanted to keep this as a stocking stuffer for my daughter, but testing showed it would just be too frustrating. Your mileage may vary, but the length of each engine means they definitely can't handle the short curved pieces, and the wheel width even made it rub on many of the (Maxim) straight pieces. I also got her this other similarly sized M&D engine: Freight Train, and works just fine.

I found these looking for Christmas presents for my son who is 2 1/2 and loves trains. These are perfect. The fact that they hook up magnetically and that they are such a simple, sturdy construction makes them perfect for my toddler son. They are so creatively painted and yet the design doesn't have all these small plastic parts that can be swallowed. I will be buying several more sets of these for him to add to his collection. These are awesome and really a good price for the value.

I ordered this set with Melissa & Doug Big train set.They are way longer than regular trains so my boy had a bit of hard time to keep them in curved track because of their length.I wish I had bought something else from Melissa & Doug

I bought these for my three year old Grandson so he can play with them at our home when he visits. He loves trains and they keep him occupied for hours on end. He loves them.

These were for my grand-nephew, and he enjoyed them immensely. I thought they would be a little larger, though, for the price
