Summary: My son's favorite
Comment: Having read reviews where people had trouble with this tunnel, I thought I'd leave a comment.

We are new to Thomas. My 2.5 year old son has suddenly gone train crazy. This is his first bridge/tunnel and I only bought it because I had a 50% off coupon to Michael's, where they have a pretty good selection. Otherwise, I think these are outrageously priced. But that's my only complaint (and why I give it 4 instead of 5 stars).

Our tunnel door works both ways, which is good, since my son's favorite thing is to go backwards thru the tunnel.

The track that comes with it technically does not fit the non-Thomas wooden track we already had. The female end was too tight and the male end too loose. For the female end, I just took a little sandpaper to it and now our track fits just fine. Not much we can do about the male end, but as long as the track isn't moved around much, it's not an issue.

Given how much time my otherwise short-attention-spanned son has spent playing with this, it was a good purchase - especially at half price.

Summary: A big hit
Comment: My three-year-old has thoroughly enjoyed this piece. He makes Thomas and Percy climb the hill, shoot through the tunnel, and escape to the other side. The train's "disappearance" is a big draw for my son and he really seems fascinated by its simple premise. It has been a big hit at our house!

Summary: My son LOVES this tunnel!
Comment: I just bought this tunnel for my 3 year old son, and he just loves it (I knew he would)! I thought I would write a review, since some other people have been having trouble with the trains fitting. He has had absolutely no problem! He has also been pushing his trains up throught the tunnel, as well, without any difficulty (so the trains do fit in both directions). He pushes them up through, and then says "it's dark in here", as the trains go in and then up the hill. My 5 year old daughter has also been having fun with this tunnel! It was a GREAT addition to our Thomas train table!!!

Summary: Very cool
Comment: It wasn't really clear to me from the pictures beforehand but this is an elevated arch which swoops down through a trap door. It is lots of fun and I've had no trouble with trains going through it even four trains linked together at the end of a roller-coaster hill. My kids can play with this as soon as I'm done!
