Editorial Review
When Thomas the Tank Engine and friends get dirty after a long day's work, they can head straight for the Sodor Engine Wash. This 6-inch-tall wooden building snaps directly into your Thomas the Tank Engine railway system. Just drive the engines up to the building, turn the large red knob on the roof, and the blue foam grips will pull the engines through the wash in either direction. The Sodor Engine Wash has a smooth black roof with a silver water tank perched on top and brick facades with fancy archways on either side. This handsome and durable structure will add lots of interest to your Thomas the Tank Engine railway system. --Elisabeth Fredrickson

Percy The Train : Thomas & Friends Wooden Railway - Sodor Engine Wash Reviews
| 33 of 35 people found the following review helpful  Sure it LOOKS fun, if you're into carpal tunnel......, By A Customer = Durability:  = Fun: = Educational: This review is from: Thomas & Friends Wooden Railway - Sodor Engine Wash (Toy) My boys (5 and 4 thought this was awesome when they got it as a gift ... that is, until they used it. If you only have one engine or car on the track, that's fine, but if, like my guys, you have a long train set up, holy toledo, it's a pain in the you-know-what. They'll be cranking those dials until they collect social security. And it didn't seem like all the cars really FIT through there, either. Very tough to turn, sometimes. After just a use or two, my boys seemed to avoid putting using it anytime they built a track, or if they used it, it was always placed on some out-skirt bit of track, so that they didn't have to travel through it! What a waste. Asthetically and in principle, very cute idea, but in practice.... not good. 20 of 20 people found the following review helpful Cute but not the greatest, By firefencer "firefencer" (San Jose, CA USA) - See all my reviews = Durability:  = Fun: = Educational: This review is from: Thomas & Friends Wooden Railway - Sodor Engine Wash (Toy) This is a cute idea. Kids can wash there thomas trains. Well it can prove frusterating. See not all the trains and cars can fit through the train wash. Some get stuck or just won't go through. THis is nice but may be to difficult for younger children. My son screams in frustertaion when he tries to do a train and it won't go through. 10 of 10 people found the following review helpful Excellent addition to my son's collection, he loves it!, By = Durability: = Fun: = Educational: This review is from: Thomas & Friends Wooden Railway - Sodor Engine Wash (Toy) My son is 4 and 3/4 years old, and received the engine wash for his third birthday. He has had no difficulty operating it, and it is holding up wonderfully. The foam wash rollers look just like new after having countless trains run through them. There are a few pieces that may get caught up a bit but it's quite easy to release them by giving them a little push from behind. The same engine wash is part of the local toy store's set, which obviously gets tons of wear. It is holding up very well, and is clearly a favorite of the children who sample it at the store. I would highly recommend this piece to any Thomas enthusiast age 3 and up. I can imagine it may be challenging for a younger toddler to operate it, but it isn't intended for that age anyway. |
