Form a Double Loop

by OCHOULIHANS on Dec 25, 2008

★★★★☆
4.0

"Expansion track allowed us to form a double loop. However, it took over an hour to create the double loop with our current track as there were no illustrations that showed which pieces to use. It would have been nice to have a couple of illustrations indicating how much of each piece of track to use and possibly one or two additional configurations...."  Read Full Review

wouldn't work with our set!

★★★☆☆
3.0

"We've had a train around our Christmas tree for years. We bought a bigger tree and there wasn't enough track to fit around the train so I ordered 2 sets of this. I thought we could have the train go all over the room but this track would not work with our set. It connected in the opposite manner; the "male" part of the track is on the other side and would not fit with our track. Luckily I bought 2 sets so there was enough to fit around the bigger tree but no further and now our old track is unusable. Pity. The manner of connecting should have been more clear in the item's description."

happy with purchase

★★★★★
5.0

"Worked fine, but the straight tracks are short. I had to buy several boxes to make an extra long track. This track is for trains made by EZ Tec, also called Scientific Toys (these are radio controlled trains). I have the "Grand Canyon Express" train, and this is the proper track for that train, and matches the track that came with the original set. If you have a train from a different manufacturer, it may not fit with what you have"

★★★★★
5.0

"Runs on batteries which orig. i thought was a drawback, but works out well. Radio control works fine and first set of batteries noit dying after 4 weeks straight.



Recommend you buy the additional track with

the figure 8 t... If on a flat surface and no shag rug, train runs smooth with no tip overs.



Great price for this set ... compare to other g gauge sets which are 400$ ..THIS IS great value"
