Designed for children aged 0-6, it promotes construction skills and hand-eye coordination without requiring assembly. ## Description From the manufacturer Features & Benefits Thomas is Living on the Edge Watch out, Thomas – there’s a cliff up ahead! But it’s too late to turn back now. The No. 1 blue engine needs to perform a daring maneuver, or he’ll topple off the ledge. Send motorized Thomas around the track and up the hill, then watch him make a sharp, 360° turn to avoid the dangerous drop. Thomas is living on the edge as he summons all his courage and control to complete an exciting hairpin turn. Ring Around the Rocky Ridge As Thomas makes his way around the cliffside, he’ll knock over the boulders to reveal fun surprises underneath. When he hits the rocks and they topple over, they’ll expose a coiled snake, cool dinosaur fossils, and some explosive mining equipment. Plus, the boulders are attached to the ledge, so after they’ve been knocked down, they can flip right back into place for Thomas’ next journey around the Close Call Cliff. The Benefits of Play The Thomas & Friends TrackMaster Close Call Cliff Set offers exciting, fun-filled play that may encourage physical and cognitive development. The sights, colours, and textures provide an array of visual and tactile stimulation, while grasping the train and turning it on can promote eye-hand coordination and finger dexterity. Seeing the cool features in action – Thomas’ sharp turn and the toppling boulders – can also help foster curiosity about cause and effect and how things work. Review: Good fun! - Best price around and great toy for Thomas fans! My little boy loves it and is great fun watching Thomas slide and knock all the boulders over! My little boy also likes that he is able to control the track and where the train goes... usually making it crash into something! Definitely recommend :) Review: Great item - Well built, interesting to assemble, especially with my kids. My son loves it. Recommended. ## Features - Warning:Not suitable for children under 3 years.

The take n play trains are much too small. You could use the wooden trains, but the track really is just for Trackmaster trains. **Q: Can you buy extra track for this ?** A: I bouight two seperate similar items and the tracks fitted together well . noty sure if you can buy extra track **Q: The train is not moving by itself??? isn't it supposed to?** A: The train requires 2 x AAA batteries. There is a small Philip screw (cross screw) underneath the train at the front. This has to be unscrewed to remove the entire top section of the train and insert the batteries as shown. Once screwed back on there is a switch on the top of the train's cabin, forward to make go and back to stop. hope this helps. **Q: Hi what batteries does this take?** A: It takes two AAA batteries. I use rechargeable batteries Panasonic Eneloop ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good fun! *by G***E on 13 September 2017* Best price around and great toy for Thomas fans!
