Great Toy, almost 5 stars.
By Kristen Carbone
I bought this for my son who is a young 2. He's a very busy little boy and gets bored easily of most toys. This set was easy to assemble, seems pretty durable, and is really cute. My son engaged in it quickly and has played with this toy longer than I've ever seen him play with any of his others.
As another reviewer wrote, there is a hill that requires you to hand crank - my son picked up on this pretty quickly and it has added that much more interest to his play. The way the the track configures you can choose to send the train up the hill or under the tunnel, so if your child can't hand crank yet, don't worry they can still use this toy and have time to grow into it.
My son loves that the train moves on it's own, it's different than the other push trains he has. He does at times try to push it, it's held up so far, but I hope this doesn't break it. The other Go Go Smart Wheels sets can attach to this set, and there are lots of different ways to assemble for lots of variation and fun!
The reason I'm giving it 4 stars instead of 5 (really minimal in the scheme of things) is that the track configurations are kind of tricky. They give you a cheat sheet on how and where pieces go. At this point I can't use all the pieces without using their sheet. Now the dilemma we have is that the sheet has been misplaced. In my chaotic world of a 2 year old, this seems to happen a lot - you think I would have figured out a better system or safer place by now, but I haven't. I went to V-tech's site but can't find a downloadable manual online. I did email them so I'm hoping that I will get another chance to find a safer home for this guide and prove myself responsible.
My only other complaint (again minimal, but the real reason for 4 stars) is that the track comes with a number of pieces open on 4 sides. You use these to connect track pieces that might otherwise not fit together, and to make cross sections. The problem is that when these go on a corner (common placement) the train runs off them. As a fix V-tech includes a piece that snaps on and redirects the train - saving the day. They really needed to include 2 of these pieces. The train can't use half of the route you see configured on the box because it would need 2 of these pieces to stay on the track. Same story for some of the other configurations. It seems like such an easy thing - on additional piece would offer lots of extra play options. None of the other play sets I've seen come with this piece and you can't order an extra online. I did email and ask if I could purchase one. I'm not expecting that I can, but it never hurts to ask!

Hours of Fun
By Jessica L Hamm
My boys (5 & 2) will spend hours working on different track configurations for the Go1 Go! Smart Wheels Train. They love all of the interactive pieces, especially the train station. My husband and I will also join in the fun and before you know it the whole family is playing together. My boys play with the train every day and it provides hours of fun. I love watching my boys figure out how the pieces will work together to complete a full track loop. The pieces are all very sturdy and easy for little hands to assemble. I would advise buying rechargeable AAA batteries for the train because it does drain them rather quickly.

Not a One and Done, This Will Be Played With A Lot!
By Holyjeans30
We received this train set a few weeks ago. I have a 3 year old daughter, and I wasn't sure if she would enjoy it or not. Fortunately she does ALOT! If you have kids you know there are some toys you buy that you think they'll just love and play with it for a long time, but most of the time it doesn't happen that way? Well, that's been my experience with all of my kids. Anyway, this train set provides so many different ways for the child to interact and learn that it keeps my daughter busy with it for long periods of time...at a time. There hasn't been one morning since we got this that she doesn't ask to get her train set out.
The pieces are big and easy for her to snap together on her own, as they kind of fit like a jigsaw puzzle. There is a paper that comes with this that shows 5 or 6 different ways to put the train set together form more simple to more complex. Even on mornings that she is too impatient to wait for me or her Daddy to help her put it together, she will get her set out anyway, and if nothing else, she'll make a straight track and play with it just the same. She LOVES turning the handle that turns a belt to pull the train up an incline, and she also loves to manually raise and drop the train crossing bars.
To see my whole review with pictures (I'm also hosting a giveaway sponsored from VTech on my blog for one of these that ends at midnight on 9-25-13) head over to http://holyjeansnmyfavoritethings.blogspot.com/2013/09/vtech-go-go-smart-wheels-train-station.html and check it out! If you're considering purchasing one of these, whatever child will be the recipient will love this set. It can also grow with the other compatible tracks that you can find at the stores or here on Amazon. I would recommend this for ages 2-5. Oh and one more note, I would recommend purchasing rechargeable batteries for the little train engine as it does drain the batteries fairly quickly for a small toy. Don't even bother trying to use cheap batteries on it, because it won't run good and the batteries will drain within about 30 minutes.
