Two-year-old loves playing with trains! This fold up track allows us to take it on the go. The pieces are all durable and fit into the carrying case with no hassle. The magnets on trains could be better but that's an easy fix and minor problem.

This was even better in person and my neighbor loved it as soon as he opened it at Christmas. The parents like that it's easy to take along as it folds-up to a carrying case.

It’s really cute and built well. I just wish the parts were magnetic so they stay in place.

My 3 year old grandson loves this! I really liked that it is compact and portable. Perfect for small space living, and taking to grandma's. Hours of entertainment. It is a winner!

Melissa and Doug wooden toys are always darling and well made, with no agenda except fun and learning. I buy one every Christmas for my daughter, who is a speech therapist for children up to 3 years old, and she uses them for their therapy sessions, because the toys are fun, attractive and versatile.

Got this for my train-obsessed toddler (almost 2). It's great to take along to family gatherings or trips so he has something to play with. Really nice quality.

My grandkid likes the new toy. The design is neat as you can bring it about in a box. Sturdy wooden parts are safe for young children too.

Super cute and travel friendly. We purchased this to bring on a cottage trip we went on. We didn’t want to bring a ton of toys but bought it would be fun to bring a new toy to keep my daughter busy at the cabin. We picked this and it was great. My daughter loved all the little pieces and the train on the track. Kept her super busy and was so easy to clean up and put away each day. A little bit heavy but nice real good quality. Didn’t bother us. Would take it being heavy and have nice quality over cheap light wood. Highly reccomend!

Melissa & Doug have done it again!I have two boys (2.5 and 3.5 yrs old). Their birthdays are just a couple months away, and we decided to get them a train table with the full M&D track. BUT, I wanted to ease them into it -- as they've never really played with trains before.I saw this take-along version and thought it'd be a perfect lead in.The plan is for it to be open and set-up under the tree on Xmas morning, so I can't yet tell you how the kids react. But I just played with it for a good 20 minutes.. if that tells you anything.Here are my pros and cons right out of the box.Pros:1) VERY solid construction. What I've come to expect from M&D. Wood is thick and sturdy. Clasps and hinges feel strong and durable.2) Nice finish/paint job on the track itself. A few minor imperfections, but overall, consistent and well done.3) Buildings/decor painted on both sides. Some sets I've seen have only one side painted. This looks good from all angles.4) Even without any decor/buildings, it is fun to use the track. My youngest is on the spectrum and not always the most gentle or purposeful with toys. I like that I can teach him how to push the cars before messing with the decor -- but can add those pieces easily for his older brother.Cons:1) 2 cars travel great together, but you'll get an occasional derailment on turns with 3 cars travelling as a unit. Not a huge issue at all, but worth noting.2) While the sliding gondola is a cute touch as a moveable element, within a day I imagine it would cause paint to wear off the 'mountaintop.' I doubt I'll give it to my kids -- at least not any time soon.3) I really wish the inside had compartments for the pieces. There's so much space that all the pieces will just be banging/jangling around in there -- should you actually use this for travel.I will probably wrap pieces in a small dish towel when storing them to negate this.
