Thomas And Friends Wooden Railway - Talking Railway Toby Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)The Talking Railway Series features train pieces such as Cranky and a Waterton station that have Sir Topham Hatt talk to each train when they are close to that piece. Toby is a nice engine, Sir Topham Hatt will say, "Toby, Cranky is ready to load the cargo." when Toby rolls over the track by Cranky. My 3 year old loves it without needing to understand the technology behind the set's ability to recognize and speak to each individual engine.
We got Toby to expand our Talking Railway set because we didn't already have a wooden Toby (he's one of the main 8 engines from the series). The sets revolve around The Great Discovery, the feature in which Thomas goes wandering and discovers the long lost town of Waterton, which Sir Topham Hatt rebuilds. One of the set pieces is the mine which Thomas falls into.
Note that Toby doesn't talk - he's part of the Talking Railway series that recognizes him and talks to him. This can get confusing because there are three wooden engines also available on Amazon that do talk - Talking Thomas, Talking James, and Talking Percy (not to be confused with Talking Railway Thomas, Talking Railway James, and Talking Railway Percy). Talking James takes one AA battery and says three different things when you press a button on top of his cabin (and makes his whistle sound).
So just realize when purchasing this item that you won't get the maximum benefit unless you own one of the pieces from the Talking Railway series (Brendam docks/Cranky, Brendam Barrel Company, Morgan's Mine, Talking Railway Knapford Station, Talking Railway oval set, and Waterton Station). These can be added on to your regular wooden Thomas sets and you'll find that Toby and the other engines are the same high quality as the regular wooden sets but with added benefits.
