EVERYTHING YOU NEED TO KNOW ABOUT OUR TRAIN SETS BUT FIRST OUR COMPANY PHILOSOPHY ![]() ![]()
Before we tell you about the wooden trains sets we have to offer, we want
to tell you a little about our company philosophy, and address the current
China scare.
During our first fourteen years in business we refused to sell wooden train sets. We wouldn't sell them because the popular wooden train sets, such as Brio, were so expensive. You see, our policy is to sell products which we feel offer value for the money...be it wooden train sets, videos, dolls, games, learning aids, whatever! And we felt that the popular wooden train sets were just too expensive for what they were. Then one day, we discovered a little known company which made wooden train sets at a reasonable price. We immediately had the company representative visit our offices, and we had him bring some of the company's train sets for our inspection. When we saw the train sets...we signed on the dotted line. They were absolutely wonderful and the price was right! These sets are similar to Brio and other higher priced popular wooden train sets. And these sets are made very, very well. So what is the real difference? Price...our wooden train sets won't cost you an arm and a leg! Just because our prices are very reasonable, that doesn't mean they are unsafe for children...actually, just the opposite is true. The manufacturers of our train sets and train table have confirmed their products meet or exceed all US regulations for safety. Although these products are produced in Chinese facilities, they are made by companies that are concerned about safety. One of the manufacturers only uses lead free, non-toxic paint with wood that comes from renewable forests for their items. In fact, for every tree they use to make their products, they plant 3 new trees--not only are they concerned about your child's safety, they are also concerned about the environment! Our other manufacturer has confirmed that it only uses non-toxic paint, and then goes one step further by conducting random audits, inspections and testing of their products to ensure specifications are being met on an ongoing basis. Yes, China made products can be safe, or even safer than products made anywhere else in the world, including the USA! Scroll down the page to see our full selection of wooden train sets.
COMPATIBILITY QUESTION We Answer A Tough Question! The question we are asked most often is "Are your train sets compatible with Thomas and Brio train sets?" Many people ask this question because they like the great value and configuration of the wooden train sets we sell, but they want to buy (or have) some Brio or Thomas train track or cars. As far as Brio is concerned, yes they are completely compatible, but Thomas is a little different. Although most stores and web sites advertise these train sets as completely compatible with Thomas trains, the truth is they are not compatible with all Thomas trains. Thomas trains are made by Learning Curve, by Tomy and other companies. And each company makes various sizes of Thomas trains. Thus, some Thomas trains will fit, and some won't. Thomas trains made by Learning Curve for their Thomas & Friends Wooden Railway System generally will fit, but Thomas trains by Learning Curve from their Take Along collector series of die cast trains do not fit at all (they don't fit Learning Curve's own wooden train system either). So, if you want to use Thomas trains, make sure they are trains made by Learning Curve specifically for their Thomas & Friends Wooden Railway System.
By the way, as far as we know, none of the Thomas trains made by Tomy will fit on wooden train tracks. Therefore, do not purchase these sets if your intent is to create, expand or supplement a Thomas system unless you are sure you have the right size trains. We pride ourselves in being completely honest and upfront with you concerning this issue, and because of this we do not accept returns of opened sets because of compatibility issues. But if compatibility is not an issue for you...what are you waiting for? These are the sets to buy. They are great wooden train sets and cost a fraction of what you would pay for a Thomas or Brio train set! Scroll down for our complete selection of wooden train sets. There is one other issue we need to discuss about wooden train sets...the track. What we are about to tell you holds true whether you buy a wooden train set from us, or from someone else. Wood is a live, natural product. And because it is, it may expand or contract depending on the temperature and humidity. Thus, track is not cut to fit snugly together. This ensures that the track will couple together in all conditions. But it also means that sometimes the track comes apart, especially on soft surfaces such as carpet. Wooden train track can also come apart on portions leading up or down a hill. Therefore, we advise that you set up wooden train systems on a hard surface such as wooden or tiled floor, on a table top, on a piece of plywood, on a train table, etc. Also, if you find segments leading up or down a hill causes some problems, it is best to glue the offending pieces together. Remember, this information
is true whether you buy your wooden train set from us or somewhere else.
But we are the ones who care enough to tell you about it!
