I posted this last week, and ended up getting the set over the weekend. It looks really nice, so you might want to check Tuesday Morning if you're in the market for a Thomas-compatible train set (with track and accessories).
It's by Maxim, and the Maxim website says they are compatible with Thomas & Friends. It's 100 pieces with trains, track, accessories, a tunnel (plastic), and a good-sized wooden storage box. My Tuesday Morning has them for $70, and lists the department store price as $150. Anyone have experience with Maxim wooden trains? Will DD miss not having a train table, or is the floor just as good for train work for a beginner? Is this a good deal? Thanks for any help you can give!
Here's a link to the Maxim website. It's the New Mountain Train Set on the far right on the bottom row.
