Review: We have collected a lot of the Thomas universe toys and this was consistent with other ones we have. Vibrant colors, large switch for little hands and easy to turn on/off. We haven’t broken one yet, so I would say they are pretty durable. They work on the floor or with all of the Thomas tracks.
