BRIO Light and Sound Timber Train Review

BRIO Light and Sound Timber Train
Average Reviews:

We originally bought a battery operated train that moves on its own along the track but that didn't work well for our young children. They wanted to push it along faster or backwards or just stop it while it was moving and that causes damage to the train and was confusing to the kids. The liked the train because of the light and sound but were frustrated by not knowing how to play with it.
This train is a great idea in that it works like any other train for the wooden tracks; you just push it along. However the children also get the light and sound that they liked from the other train, just without the confusion.
The two trailing cars are a good value given the engine by itself is not much less. Young kids might have problems with these cars since the logs separate from the carrier so they are a bit more complicated to push or pick up. Still this is a nice set. We also got a green diesel engine that works the same way and there is also an orange light and sound engine available that looks nice.
This engine has been stepped on and thrown about the room and has stood up well. This is highly recommended for young children (2-4).

Push me and hear my engine! A must-have train with a steam engine that goes toot-toot and two wagons with removable magnetic timber loads. The engine chugs and the steam boiler glows when the engine is pushed along. Brio Sound & light effects require 3 x 1.5 V button cell batteries (included). Length 220 mm/8.7"Ages 3 and above. 33536 Brio

BRIO Light and Sound Steam Engine Review

My 4-year-old son has just about every Thomas and Brio engine on the market, including the "electric" versions of Thomas and his friends. This one is different -- it does not move by itself as do the electric vehicles. Rather, it makes train and track noises as your child pushes it along the track. It's a fun addition to a younger child's set (one who is not ready for an electric engine that moves itself) -- as well as a great addition to an older child's set as it's new and different. Plus, it feels sturdy. I've only had it for a week, but it looks like it will last a while -- the self-propelled electric engines, while they're well-built, are no match in the long-term for the hijinks of a little boy.

All aboard for BRIO fun. This classic wooden train comes with battery-powered engine sounds, a glowing boiler and a chimney that "toot-toots." The faster your child moves the engine, the faster the engine sounds. Light and sound effects are powered by 3 "1.5V" button-cell batteries (included). Engine measures 3.5 inches long.
