Engine Stop/go Checkpoint Fits Thomas Brio Chuggington Melissa & Doug Imaginarium

As a family who loves our wooden train track builds, this has been a great add on. Everyone enjoys adding this to the track, including my 1yo, 3yo, and husband. It is a simple short track piece with an attached house feature and manually rising gate featuring a stop sign. Simple, but brings the train track build alive and adds many giggles, gasps, and "oh no"s when the gate is left down and the train is fast approaching. I would say this piece is a great addition at this very affordable price point. Pros: - compatible with other brand of wooden tracks. In the included video, this piece is connected with a Brio brand garage and a generic brand plain track. All connect/fit with ease and allow functional play - vibrant, clear paint - easy enough for my toddler to manipulate, so I would put the age range at 1+ - affordable. These additional pieces can really add up so I was happy to discover this brand Cons - the arm of the gate can come unattached when extended up too far. It simply pops back in place

Sturdy and delightfully cute.

Very solid, well made train accessory.

Great accessory. My son loved it!

My grandchildren love it. They love the gate - moving it up and down. The checkpoint adds a realism to the train layout. The checkpoint is well made and should last for many years.
