My son had seen this advertised on TV and was screaming up and down for it, excited beyond belief. Took a good 10 minutes to set up and put together, then another 5 minutes to realise why it wasn't working properly as we were running the train the wrong way round! Son played with it for a good 20 minutes, until he got bored with having to move the tornado back after each journey. He loves trains, so am sure it will come back out again soon. Am also guessing that you can add additional pieces on to this.
Great new addition to the Thomas track master sets

My little ones are mad about Thomas trains. This track is beautifully built, compatible with other track master tracks. It’s big enough to set up and play in 5 minutes and yet small enough to fit comfortably in kids play zone. Some tracks although lovely but are huge and take a lot of effort and space to set and play. The mechanical way of pushing the tornado back keeps it interactive. My child loves rushing back to reinstate it before Thomas makes his way to the shed. Easy to built, great quality, easy to store, perfect size for kids room, and you can build a collection up as the child grows and use them all together as they can handle more complicated track build.
We gave the Thomas twisting tornado set to our 3 year old for his birthday last week, we should have just brought him this toy as its the only toy he plays with now. He enjoys racing around to reset the barn before Thomas comes back round the track. I love the fact that it is compatible with other track master sets that can be added which means even more hours of fun. Highly recommended.
Got this for my 6 year old as he’s Thomas mad and he loves it! The track and train are really well made and he spends hours pretending he’s operating the rail system on the island of Sodor. Highly recommend for any little Thomas and friends fans!
I would recommend this to a friend!

My little boy had this given to him and through the interaction with the push along trains, he's learned all about push/pull effect. The toys comes with many components which were easy to assemble. My little boy also loves the mechanics behind it, the spinning tornado effect. Highly recommend this toy to Thomas fans and even to those who aren't a Thomas fan!
