 BUYER BEWARE: THIS IS A JUNKY FAKE!Feb 15, 2011
By fenjen
If you are looking to purchase a Learning Curve Thomas & Friends Wooden Railway toy, don't buy from this seller. The item I received was shipped in a plastic baggy and bubble wrap and was clearly a poor imitation of the advertised toy. With a husband who imports from the Pacific Rim, I am VERY familiar with Chinese manufactured goods. This item bore all the hallmarks of a cheap, Chinese knock-off: missing/incorrect packaging, low quality materials and a lack of attention to detail, including failing to paint the front bumper red (as shown in the picture) and no sign of the Learning Curve ID #/trademark anywhere on the toy. Any parent should be concerned with painted goods from China given the chance that lead paint may be, and likely is, used on manufactured goods that are not quality tested by a parent company.
Upon receiving my return request in which I made clear that the item I received was a fake, the seller responded, "These wooden trains are factory overruns from 2004-2006. Diesel is difficult to get in retail packaging or not. We are happy to offer this to customers who need diesel in their railyard or to complete their collection." Uh-huh, sure they are. And, I'm sure they are happy to dupe customers with a price tag close to $[...]. Truly shameful and sad that others may not realize they have received such a pitiful imitation of the extremely high quality Learning Curve Wooden Railway brand.
Insult to injury, the item arrived 11 days late. On the good side, Amazon Prime will be shipping it back to the seller for free. Diesel is hard to find and I may not be able to get one for my child's collection. If you really want Diesel and are okay paying a ridiculous sum for an obvious fake that may not be safe for your child to handle, this item fits the bill.

 Oh, you HAVE to buy Diesel!May 02, 2005
By c2
This guy is so much fun to have for your little one's train set! Oh, the trouble he causes in the films and now, well, he's up to no good at your house too. The imagination Diesel stirs is a ton of fun and our little one is trying to make Diesel and "good boy" all the time instead of being bad. What a great addition to our set and I'm so very glad that we finally found one here on amazon. Highly recommend!

Great toy!Jan 20, 2009
By C. Carpenter
All the trains in this collection are wonderfull.
They are really well made and have magnets so they can join onto the other trains. My son loves his train set and loves to watch them go.
A must buy for boys!
Great toy for Thomas the Train loversJan 03, 2008
By M. Markovic
My two year old received this train for x-mas and has not let go of it yet. He is a big Thomas fan and truly enjoys playing with "not nice" Diesel. He has many other trains from the collection but this definitely is one of the favorites.
Good little trainSep 05, 2007

It's Diesel, it's one of my son's favourites and he couldn't be happier! The only problem I have is that - (same with all the wooden railway trains, and maybe can't be helped) - if the train's dropped on a hard floor, the paint seems to chip off pretty easily. There are no paint chips that I have seen, so it's not a safety issue - the problem is purely cosmetic. And my son's not bothered about that so neither am I.
