4.0 out of 5 stars Brio Lights and Sound Crossing Review, 24 Jan 2002
By A Customer
= Durability:4.0 out of 5 stars  = Fun:4.0 out of 5 stars  = Educational:4.0 out of 5 stars 
This review is from: BRIO 33675 Wooden Railway System: Lights & Sounds Crossing (Toy)
The Lights and Sounds Crossing by Brio is an interesting addition to any wooden railway set. It works in two ways ... you can either activate the crossing features by pushing a small button (a little tricky for very tiny hands at first, but they soon get the hang of it !) or it can be activated automatically when a train passes over the crossing (by the magnets on the trains).

Upon activation, the red lights (one on either side of the track) flash and there is a 'ding ding' noise (very similar to the sound made by railway crossings in real life !).

Whilst the sound and light effects are good, I was a little disappointed that the automatic activation doesn't occur until the train is most of the way through the crossing .. a little pendantic maybe, but how do you explain to a small child that the sounds and lights are to warn people not to cross, when with this item it would be too late as the train is already crossing by the time they start ! It would have been nice if Brio could have made the track piece longer such that the magnetic activator could be located further away, and the lights and sound started before the train reached the actual crossing !

One other thing to note, is that this does NOT have an off switch ... the only way of silencing it is to take the batteries out ! An off switch would be an enormous improvement as the sound does get rather penetrating when you are subjected to it for long periods of time !

That said.....my daughter think it's the bees-knees and I would recommend this item to anyone with a wooden train set !!

5.0 out of 5 stars Adds a ton of fun to train play, 17 Feb 2002

5 stars on educational? -- it only teaches cause and effect. But since it also draws my 19 mo old son to the train table to endlessly set off the pleasant sound and light effects while playing with his train set, thats fair. Its the same width as three pieces of track however, so you need to set aside a fair amount of space, so its a better part of a large floor layout than on the table if you have a lot of buildings.

I highly recommend this to all Brio lovers. Kids will love it because of the flashing lights and noises but parents will love it because it's not too noisy. You can be in the same room watching tv and not be bothered. Very cute!

5.0 out of 5 stars Brio is Great but can you take the noise?, 2 Aug 2006
By Jirka "Two Little Chicks" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: BRIO 33675 Wooden Railway System: Lights & Sounds Crossing (Toy)
I picked up at Tuesday Morning for 7.00. I was more than pleased with the quality of the toy, but it truly drives me crazy. The sirens just keep on playing long after they should have stopped.
My son loves it so I still would buy it again. It has been durable and my son likes to play with it so I justify it that way.

Overall our Brio toys have held up to a beating and still look brand new. They are worth the money.

It's a great alternative to the more expensive Thomas and Friends version.
