Product Description
New adventures are waiting around every bend with Thomas and Friends Roadway Systems sets. Designed to grow along with kids' increasing skills, this quality line of toys offers years of enjoyable and imaginative play. It takes more than trains to keep the Island of Sodor humming. Complete Sodor's transport system with the colorful stone-lined Mountain Tunnel Overpass set. Move engines over the bridge and under the tunnel. As Percy and Butch (sold separately) climb up this mountainous overpass, you'll "magically" activate realistic railway sounds. Requires 2 "AA" batteries (included).

 An interesting addition to your home railroad! October 22, 2008
Virginia C. Lanzotti (Clifton, VA)
This has added a lot of interest to my 3 year old son Josh's railroad building experience. It has sound effects which can be turned off, and is very sturdy.
 Another great addition to our track. May 7, 2008

To echo another reviewer, I too must have missed that the top of the mountain is intended to be a roadway. At first I was disappointed, but I converted it to a train track by simply adding track to it...duh. So as it does make CAR/TRUCK noises, I'm still more pleased with it as a TRAIN track, as is my son!
This mountain overpass is our only sights and sounds Thomas toy as our intention was for Thomas to be a creative manipulative set, for now. I must say that it's noise, all be it loud, is the draw to the mountain. My son LOVES the 6 noises and will run his trains over or through this mountain continuously!
I'm pleased with this addition and all the creative options it allows.
Great toy November 9, 2007

My son loves it very much. I guess, the sound of the cars and the trains is really attractive to him. Anyway, it's really good toy.
But one thing I would mention(maybe this is useful for some beginning users like us): the top track is for cars, not for trains. When I order it, I didn't pay attention to it. After we got the toy, I found it. We don't have many pieces of car tracks, so probably we need to buy some additional car tracks to make it fully functional. So to me, if I know it before I order, I would order the set instead of this overpass only. But, this is not affecting to rate this toy to 5 stars, because the toy is really good, it's kind of user's error:)
Fun addition to Thomas sets June 7, 2006

We bought the entire Mountain overpass set (which you can find for about $50 if you look around). We found that the road part was not very fun, but the tunnel is great. My toddler loves the noises that the trains make when they pass under or over the tunnel, and the little red button that she can push to make the noise on her own.
We've incorporated the tunnel into several different layouts. I'd recommend it highly. But be warned, the noises are loud.

My parents had bought this for my son for Christmas and he just loves it. Before we received this he only had the water tower figure 8 set, and with me just playing around with the tracks one day I was able to get this to fit in perfectly, with no leftover track pieces.
My son thought the only way to make noise was by pushing the button, but then I showed him that the train and ambulance can trigger the noise too. Since then he can't put it down, and most nights he falls asleep with it. Luckily there is an off switch underneath.
