Thomas & Friends Wooden Railway – Duck the GWR Pannier Tank Engine This bright green toy will bring a smile to any little train fan’s face. Based on the award-winning PBS television series Shining Time Station by the Rev. W. Awdry, the Thomas the Tank train set is a perfect child’s train set. Duck’s job is setting cars in the yard and pulling small freight. Each wooden vehicle in the series has a different name, character, and face. Magnetic bumpers make linking up easy. Friendly characters engage kids in hours of imaginary play. Designed to encourage new motor and cognitive skills. –Sandy Hirsch
Customer Review: Good suff, just like all the other Thomas trains
My 2 year old and 4 year old LOVE Thomas stuff and this train is no exception.
My only negative is that if kids really beat on them, drop them on the floor, scrape them etc (which kids tend to do) the paint chips of a little. But they’re made with real wood, so I guess that’s to be expected.
Customer Review: Duck the Great Western engine
If your child enjoys acting out the Thomas & Friends episodes, Duck is one of the more sensible engines. He is a big green tank engine with the GWR logo on the sides. He stands no nonsense from the engines and freight cars who try to boss him around, and does things his own way–the Great Western way. Unfortunately, sometimes the freight cars get the best of him, especially when they make him crash through a barber shop in “A Close Shave For Duck.”
If you could use a sensible engine in your layout, then Duck is for you. Don’t worry if he’s accident-prone, though. You could always get an engine that will tow him back into place. Then, Duck will be ready to work the Great Western way again.
