(More customer reviews)This is the set we began with when our children became interested in playing with the Wooden Train Tracks. This is a great set. There are enough pieces that you can do creative things with it (a circle and an oval, a hill over a circle etc).
The pieces are very sturdy and have held up to three children and who knows how many friends playing with the pieces. The mountain is big. Bigger than you might think based on the pictures.
What makes this set so good is that the mountain holds up the hill pieces. With out the hill you would need to get some blocks or something to hold up the hill pieces. For little hands this becomes difficult and if they bump the tracks then everything falls apart. The mountain doesn't present the same difficulties for little fingers and hands.
As one reviewer noted, it does work better on a hard surface. It doesn't have to be a table though, a nice hard floor works great too. However, my children set it up on carpeting and generally don't complain about derailings.
This is well worth the money.
Enjoy.
