Question 1

Do the newer engines go over the stop and go red things?

Accepted Answer

The new "enhanced performance" engines which go faster and climb hills better do indeed have trouble going over those tracks that have the switch that makes typical Trackmaster engines stay in place while still "running." We have multiple new engines and most of the time they either get totally stuck on that track or they at least hesitate before finally powering over it. It's not a big deal if you're not bothered by having to give it a tiny nudge when it gets stuck. My sons actually enjoy setting up a track with that piece in it and several new engines running on it because it's like a relay race ... James gets stuck, then Henry sends him on his way by banging into him from behind. Then, Henry is stuck and Gordon smashes him free. Then Gordon is set free by Edward, etc.

Question 2

Shown:T&F Trackmaster Sodor Sounds Trk Pk includes 17 pieces; however, I only see 6.  Are there more track pieces included in the set that are not shown?

Accepted Answer

I believe it comes with enough track to make a full oval, a sign, and the building that the engines pass by. It's been so long since I bought the pack that I don't really remember and we have so many Thomas things now that I can't keep  up with them...lol

Question 3

Is it easy to be connected to the thomas rides the rails starter set? I mean are there enough pieces to connect them both completely together?

Accepted Answer

All of the trackmaster sets fit well together and do not require extra track. the only exception tothis isthe switches which sometimes are slightly longer than normal pieces.

Question 4

Are the TrackMaster sets compatible with the Thomas Wooden sets?

Accepted Answer

No, the Trackmaster sets are a different size, shape, and material than the Wooden Sets.
