Here is a Testimonial from someone who bought this set:

Our Favorite Train!

My 5 year old daughter and 2 year old son LOVE trains. We bought this train last year for Christmas 2010 and they both loved it! The colors are great, the music and automatic lights are just wonderful. I love how you can decorate the scene. My daughter has been begging to have the train to play with all year and was so excited to see me bring up the box this weekend. They have both been playing with it non-stop for the last few days. The train even gets played with all over the house. I wish we had another train and remote so they could both play with it because the only problem I have is getting them to take their turn! I recommend this product!

Make Your Own GeoTrax Trestle for about $20

Nearby where I live you will find the Wilburton Trestle - a historic wooden railway trestle that measures over 100 feet high and almost 1,000 feet long. The trestle was originally built in 1904 and has served many purposes during its life. Freight trains carrying Boeing's aircraft fuselages to its assembly plant in Renton used to cross the trestle 6 days a week.

I have always thought the GeoTrax railway system needed a good trestle. Apparently, I am not the only one to think this. In fact, recently a creative GeoTrax enthusiast built a trestle for his son's GeoTrax set.



The video includes some instructions on how he went about building this and at the end offers an email address you can contact for plans. The final result is amazing and it only cost him about $20 to build. Enjoy!!!

Last Minute Holiday GeoTrax

I was in Target the other night doing some shopping for my wife when I stumbled upon these Holiday GeoTrax sets--not in the Toys section--in the Seasonal items section.


(Click to see an enlarged version)

The sets come with two pieces of jumbo curve track that form a loop, a holiday character, a train, a North Pole sign, a gift package, a crossing gate and a Christmas tree.

Below I am including a close-up of the two sets I found. These don't appear to be available online at Target.com, I think you can only buy them in store. Or, try purchasing them from eBay (Buy It Now).

Good luck finding these and remember to look for them in the Seasonal items section of your local Target.

GeoTrax Track Layout Ideas - Elevated Star Crossing

This is GeoTrax Track Layout Quick Tip #5

I've had many requests for more track layout quick tips...I will start trying to do a better job of this as I currently have a two-and-a-half year old who is very interested in Choo-choos (read as GeoTrax). We had them out over the weekend and look what we built



I call this the "elevated star crossing" and it seems appropriate just in time for the holidays.

I start with the bottom piece of the GeoTrax High Chimes Clock Tower as the center piece for the crossing. From that I extend straight pieces (half or whole) in all directions. Then I connect each straight track to a curved ramp piece which you can get with sets like the new GeoTrax Timbertown Railway and/or the the GeoTrax Workin' Town Railway.



I finish by adding the top piece of the clock tower to the crossing and it is ready to go. Now, you can continue to build out your entire layout in four different directions.

Enjoy!
