From the Manufacturer Thomas talks! Motorized Thomas says phrases and sounds. Watch him puff around the track and hear chugging sound effects, whistles and signature phrases.

Review: VERY NICE TOY FOR THE 1 TO 5 YEAR OLDS - I just gave this to my grandson yesterday for this first birthday. It may take him a little while to figure out what to do to make it go but he seemed to enjoy it anyway; his 3 year old sister had no trouble with this. When you depress the smokestack Thomas tells you his name and makes the woo-woo train whistle. It then starts to move and has no problem traveling over a short pile carpet. The tender is securely attached and does not detach easily so that if you pick up one car the other one does not suddenly fall off which is important for very young children. Well constructed with no removable parts that could cause a choking hazard. I expect he'll get many years of enjoyment with this toy.
Review: Loves it cos it is sturdy and shuts off when not played. - My 3 years old son loves it! Daily play after five months and multiple dropped and it is still working. No complain at all. It does use 3 AAA battery. I used rechargable battery since it is heavily played by my son. One great feature is it will stop itself when it is flipped to the side or left alone for a short while. So No annoying 'I am Thomas. Number one engine....' over and over again.... Also, no way to shut down the sound. Once the engine start choochooing, the voice sound comes along.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ VERY NICE TOY FOR THE 1 TO 5 YEAR OLDS
*by M***. on September 24, 2010*

I just gave this to my grandson yesterday for this first birthday. It may take him a little while to figure out what to do to make it go but he seemed to enjoy it anyway; his 3 year old sister had no trouble with this. When you depress the smokestack Thomas tells you his name and makes the woo-woo train whistle. It then starts to move and has no problem traveling over a short pile carpet. The tender is securely attached and does not detach easily so that if you pick up one car the other one does not suddenly fall off which is important for very young children. Well constructed with no removable parts that could cause a choking hazard. I expect he'll get many years of enjoyment with this toy.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Loves it cos it is sturdy and shuts off when not played.
*by M***Y on May 18, 2015*

My 3 years old son loves it! Daily play after five months and multiple dropped and it is still working. No complain at all. It does use 3 AAA battery. I used rechargable battery since it is heavily played by my son. One great feature is it will stop itself when it is flipped to the side or left alone for a short while. So No annoying 'I am Thomas.

### ⭐ Defective
*by R***0 on January 5, 2013*

Bought this for my son for Christmas because he loves Thomas. We have several motorized engines and they have all worked fine, but this one only whistled and talked out of the box and did not move. Tried putting in new batteries and the results were no different. I don't recommend this particular engine.
