## Description

Engineer Dave shows us around old and new trains, takes control of a freight train going top speed, and introduces us to steam engines, locomotives, and an old caboose. Plenty to see, lots of location shooting, big action for tykes interested in moving machines. Dave's banter might go over the heads of some of the target audience, but you can ignore that. --Tom Keogh

    goofy fun for little train lovers
  

*by A***S on Reviewed in the United States on September 5, 2002*

We have three of the "There Goes A ...." videos with Dave Hood.  Our three-year old loves them all, though I would say this is not the best one.  If you don't own "There Goes a Fire Truck", that one is even better and I'd recommend that instead; if, however, you are blessed with a tiny train fiend, this should be very entertaining for them (and you too).Engineer Dave does a very good job of entertaining children while he explains the workings of various locomotives, though the device of daydreaming and then messing up on the job is used too many times, and Dave is caught sleeping on the job too.  Also, as another reviewer said, there's a long segment in which Dave climbs along a moving train to alert the engineer to a car stalled on the track up ahead.  The bad safety example is second only to the atrocious acting!  It would have been better to have spent that time showing more of these fascinating vehicles.  When the film is on track (so to speak) it is excellent.

    The magic continues
  

*by T***N on Reviewed in the United States on December 12, 2012*

To my great joy and amazement this 18 year old video(released in 1994)is delighting yet another generation of train lovers.  That's right...this was my son's all time favorite train video with all the wackiness that only engineer Dave can serve up.  My son watched it endlessly from ages 2-4, or 1997-1999.  He's now 17 and soon off to college.  Now my sister's 2 1/2 year old twins are equally smitten with train love and on a whim I looked for this classic.  Though it has not been re-released in DVD format, my sister still had a VHS player kicking around so I ordered up a used copy of "There Goes A Train."  I have just heard from my sister that although she wishes to kill me for unleashing this on her, her boys are utterly delighted. She senses it is destined to be watched until the tape disintegrates. Kudos to the gang that made it.

    Best gift ever
  

*by D***. on Reviewed in the United States on December 31, 2016*

I watched this movie when I was a child and I had watched it so much that it had actually started to wear out so much that it was on the verge of being unwatchable, and also watched it to the point that my father hated engineer Dave and his love of trains with a passion and had taken the vhs tape out to the desert and used the tape as a clay pigeon, all in all it made a great birthday gift for him, I'll never forget the look on his face.
