So nice that it can keep going, hauling or pushing the other magnetic train cars around. Forward and Reverse feature is a plus, with headlights that turn on so you know you pushed the switch correctly.

This is the second Hape locomotive I’ve bought for the grandkids. They work well and the kids love them.

This gets the job done. It's a little annoying having to use a screwdriver to change the AAA batteries, but I guess that's a safety feature to protect children, rather than a design flaw. I won't fault them for that. It occasionally loses grip when trying to pull cars behind it up a hill but, otherwise, it does pretty well. It's got forward and reverse which my toddler seems to struggle with when trying to turn it off, only to miss the OFF position and switch it into the opposite direction. Time will tell if that is something he'll overcome. Overall, it's a much cheaper, yet still functional, alternative to BRIO, which is what's most important.

Our 5 year old grandson loves playing with the large train track at our house. We have lots of small wooden train cars for this type of track and my husband thought a battery powered engine would be a fun addition. I read the reviews on this one and knew ahead of time that the engine would pull about 3 cars up an incline. And that is what we found also. It chugs along pretty slowly, but we are not in any hurry and that gives the little guy enough time to run around to another place and change the track direction each time, which he really enjoys doing.When the 5 year old is at school the little sister plays with this too even though she is not precise enough to get it on the track most of the time. This little engine gets a work out and can handle some toddler abuse from the little person. I would recommend this and purchase again.

My grandson is crazy about trains, and he has several battery powered trains. He's long had magnetically linked, wooden track trains, but has graduated to plastic track, powered trains with a remote. The problem is, he can't set up the track himself as he doesn't have the motor skills and cognitive skills to plan out the geometric principles to make the track. He can, however, put together simple wooden track layouts. Linking these trains and getting them on the rails is also a challenge for him. This little engine is perfect to give his magnetically joined trains power and a renewed interest for him. It can pull four or five cars with ease and operates over an hour continuously on a single AA cell. With a simple on and off switch and single speed, its easy for young children to operate. While he still prefers his larger remote control trains, this he can set up himself and enjoy when he can't harness an adult to set up a track for him. A great addition to any wooden track train set, to move into powered motion, and a great price too.

This is a darling train and my toddler is obsessed. 5 stars for product idea. However the execution is a bit soft, it’s very easy to break the wheels off and or the magnetic piece that connects other trains, and the train is so slow. We replaced 2 batteries every 4 hours of use. It takes so many batteries! I’d probably look for a sturdier one next time.

The trains work great, they are made solid as they fell many times and keep on going. They pull long chains of train cars and keep on going. They have some issues with bridges but that's just because the trains are usually way long to climb steep ascends. Great fun!

We have purchased these trains a few times! They work really well, are reliable, simple to use (just one big button that goes forwards, middle for stop, or backwards), last longer than other ones we've tried, and are good value for money! Very impressed!They go at a good speed with new batteries, and becomes slower as the batteries become worn out, but that's fine! They go backwards and forwards, and can pull many carriages, including uphill. They work on tracks and across floors.The kids love them and so do I! Wonderful electric trains!
