well, it'a while since we used it - i think you probably could - as i remember you could make it smaller or larger -the train i forget totally - my grandson liked it a lot - he's autistic but sat down & put it together in a matter of minutes - sorry i can't be of more help -your idea sounds great!i good luck

Absolutely this does make a circle...not sure if the size will be what you want though

this is an expansion set it may noy work because you need other tracks to go w/ it. also depends on size of the cake hope this helps

There is an expansion set, apart from this huge set: http://www.amazon.com/Thomas-Train-TrackMaster-Deluxe-Expansion/dp/B002SNA5HU/ref=pd_bxgy_t_text_y (There is also a "starter" set which consists of a small track and an engine(usually Thomas) available here on Amazon or at stores like Walmart (cheaper) and Target. So, both these together along with the huge one you have right now, will make the LONGEST track possible. Be sure to use Trackmaster engines - other kind of engines will not run on this track. AND make sure you have that much of a GINORMOUS SPACE in your home / floor to layout the tracks !!

It is compatible with the wooden trains.. Not sure about the tracks.. The best gift we've gotten so far for our son. We got it for Christmas and has not stopped using it since ..

No. The wooden trains do not fit properly on this track and there is no way to attach the little ones that have magnets on the front to the TrackMaster Thomas trains.

I am honestly not sure! We only have the Thomas wooden tracks. I am sorry to not be of more help!

I think what my grandson had was the Melissa and Doug tracks and had the thomas trains and it fit. I don't know about the Thomas tracks, sorry.

Looking at the tracks for the TrackMaster trains, I would say these would not work. These do, however, work well with the wooden Thomas train sets, which is what we have.

You can use any train set on it. The set that comes with it fits the older Thomas sets and most generic wooden track sets

It is designed for the self-powered Trackmaster trains. I think the wheel base on the wooden and die cast trains is smaller so they would not work correctly. Also, the structure would probably not be sturdy enough for the child-propelled (by hand) trains without a lot of repairs.

Maxwell, this is very confusing. In the title it says "Trackmaster" but the first line of description says "Expand your world of Thomas and Friends Take-n-Play Railway"... I want it for TrackMaster, but don't want to take the chance and find it's for the little take-n-plays.

Yes the track fits with some thought, but I suggest you get the TrackMaster FlexiTrack kit also (about ten $) that really makes it easier to put tracks together, esp. for little kids. Also, I'd get one of these and then the Talking Sodor Sounds Track Pack, then buy one of the cheaper trains... or one on sale. (Trackmaster Talking James is always a hit with the kids and usually a good price. Of course, they love Percy but he seems to be costly unless on sale.Kids would rather have 2 different trains instead of two Thomas' trains, and there's usually one on sale here at Amazon.

I made a chocolate cake "mountain" (one full batch of cake batter, similar in size to a cake mix) for the cake board and made the train lemon bundt cake. For some people, half a train car will be plenty and some people will eat an entire car.. Making an extra cake of some kind will be necessary for that many party goers unless you plan on making multiple trains. Good luck and have fun!

Yes, I think track is pretty much standard size for Thomas and train.we do have thomas,Percy, spencer and Henry. They all work fine on these trackers.

Yes, you can. The tracks are designed in such a way to extend and make it longer. You will have 2 stops and 2 stations, which may not be a bad thing. My daughter loves the set..she now has more tracks and she asked me to buy all the friends of Thomas. I told her that I have to think about it..:).

You can attach trackmaster track together whether or not they are starter sets. I'm not sure why you'd want to buy two unless you want two Thomas trains. If you need two Thomases, then I would suggest getting only one starter set, a second Thomas, and packages of extra track. That way, you will have more versatility in possible track layouts.

It depends if you are using the Tidmouth shed with the 5-track switch piece or optional Learning Curve turntable. Assuming you are using the 5-track switch track, I recommend getting the Figure 8 expansion Pack (not advanced)! (Thomas And Friends Wooden Railway - Figure 8 Set Expansion Pack) or Circo Expansion Set (Circo Wood Track Expansion set) because either set comes with a handy 3-way switch track that you can connect in front of the 5-track switch. Keep the shed in the center of the table. From there the other two ends of 3-way switch track can be connected to a large oval that you can build around the Tidmouth shed. Sorry it sounds more complicated than it actually is! If you can see my son's layout which is a little complex because I have added a lot of parts/accessories, you still can still see the basic idea. See link below & customer shared image. PICTURE; Kidkraft Train Table - Honey I started out with the Water Tower figure-8 set, but I used the Maxim Shed instead of the Learning Curve Tidmouth Shed which is still similiar in size/shape. Good Luck!
