(More customer reviews)Ok, let me first say that my son has had hours upon hours of entertainment with all of his Thomas toys, no doubt...but my wife and I bought this bridge for our son for Valentine's Day and I cannot say that we've fallen in love with this bridge...
This bridge does have the "cool factor" going for it, because it compliments his set quite well; however, I just cannot get past the fact that it doesn't stay connected well enough. Yes, the bridge is made to collapse, but it doesn't take much for it to crumble with little more than the weight of two or three cars on the bridge. I also find it interesting that even the directions make a point that the bridge might collapse a little "too easily" and gives advice on how to keep it together better (WTH?) I don't even know why there are the buttons on the side of the bridge, because it doesn't take anything special for it to collapse. (Before you make comments that I am not connecting it well enough, I have read the directions thoroughly...) Why the button?
Also, I am just amazed that it came with two FEMALE ENDS!!! Why would you not want to make a loop with this bridge? My son has a train table and this bridge just stands alone, because it cannot complete the loop. I also read through some posts and noticed that you have to buy an adapter; which I find negligible, because when you pay almost $50 for a toy, you'd expect that the attention to detail would be there, but obviously, it wasn't...shame on you, Thomas!!! (I still love you, because my son loves your toys so much...)
Not a bad bridge, but not the best product that the Thomas line has kicked out in recent years.

Push a button, and the Sodor Suspension Bridge collapses. Then push the button again to "fix" the bridge, and the trains are able to travel once again. This action-packed bridge is inspired by the "Calling All Engines!" video, in which the bridge is damaged by a storm, but the Steamies and Diesels are able to work together to repair it. Measures 17.25" x 6" x 8.75".
