Product Description
Tomica, an exciting new toy range brings together trains, tracks and vehicles that little boys will want to play with for hours! Tomica is built on two exciting themes: Hyper City and Hyper City Rescue. Hyper City is based on a city with real life destinations that kids see everyday such as petrol stations, train stations and car parks. Whereas Hyper City Rescue is based on a futuristic "Protective Force" that keeps order within the city. The range includes vehicles, trains, accessories, destinations and fun play sets.
The Tomica Mega Station Set is a fantastic playset with lots to do and discover. This giant track layout features lights and sounds and a never-before seen fully automated station. Watch as diecast cars travel up the ramp and then stop to let the train go through! This can either be done automatically or flick a switch to do it manually instead - so you control when the trains or cars pass through. This set comes complete with rail, road, pavement, 2-speed train, mega automatic crossing station, convenience store, two diecast Tomica cars and a Tomi-Kid figure. Also includes accessories such as trees and signpost. Add diecast vehicles you already own onto the road layout to create your own races and adventures. Add this set to other Tomica playsets and accessories to build up your ultimate creative world of fun and adventure.

My nearly 4 year old son has had this for Christmas and it is a massive hit. It's very interactive with lots of stuff happening which they can set to go automatically or work manually. The train goes at two speeds - the fastest of which is very quick and it looks good. There is enough track for a good sized layout on the floor. My son thinks its brilliant and has been playing with it non-stop since he had it. He is having to use planning skills and think quickly to get his trains to run right, without causing crashes and is also keen to get other people involved in the play.
It's worth noting that it will take 20-30 minutes to unpack, install batteries and stick all the extra stickers on so worth preparing ahead if you can.
An excellent set, very expandable and lots of fun to play with. Thomas trackmaster trains also run on this track and most trackmaster sets seem to come with connectors to connect trackmaster track to Tomy track.

My five year old son, who happens to be autistic, has long since grown out of wooden train sets. But 'proper' train sets are still too delicate and fiddly. Tomy have come up with the perfect stage in between - and that would be true for any child, as his younger non-autistic sister and older cousins would testify.
The train is powered by a single size C battery. It doesn't require a screwdriver to insert it. It has two speeds, and a very simple on/off/speed switch. The track is easy to put together, durable, and tolerant: the train will stay on the rails even if they are not perfectly aligned.
But the fun is in the station. I wasn't sure about this at first. It looked too fussy. But in fact it is a work of genius. It is powered by 3 type C batteries (small screwdriver required), and when switched on becomes like a beautiful Victorian toy. The train is halted at the station as it comes around the track. The barrier lifts to allow the first car to cross the track; once across, the train is then allowed through. Then a series of paddles lift the car up a ramp, until it gets to the top, and races back down to the level crossing again - or joins a queue, since up to five cars can be used (it comes with two). All the while the crossing clangs its warning, and things whir and click. My son finds it utterly entrancing - and seeks out the numerous angles from which to watch this poetry in motion.
And furthermore the train can also be made to halt or go at points around the track by pulling a little lever. It comes with a good amount of track, but if you buy some extension track too, you end up with a really big trainset, with lots of possibilities, and plenty of scope for interaction. For the autistic child there is huge potential to extend play, and to get involved in his or her world. And if they do throw pieces about, they are tough enough to take it.
When we first had it I rushed out to buy some rechargeable batteries, assuming this much activity would drain the batteries within a day or two. But incredibly the first set of batteries lasted two months, despite being played with every day.
There's plenty else to buy to develop the set and keep it interesting. Full marks to Tomy - they really have come up with a beautiful toy.

You do need some floor space for this as it's approximately 1.1m x 0.8m (rough guess) but what a toy! The train moves round the track at either high or low speed. There are points to fiddle with and buttons to push which stop the train at the station and lets cars go across. A motorised unit moves the cars along and they also stop to let the train through. There's a small shop, which if you push a button, the doors open, car parking spaces where if you press a button, the cars are pushed off. A small road runs around the shop. My son also has the Tomica Hypercity Rescue and has asked for more in the range for his birthday. I will need a bigger house at this rate but it's great to see my son sit down and play and get something out of it. Well worth the buy and I think good value at today's prices!Tomy Tomica 85401 Mega Station Set
