A few years back I saw this train set with a side facing car like one of the Disneyland trains. Is it possible to still buy this set or buy the car?

I wish I still had it but I ended up giving it to a friend. I don't believe the listing is still on Amazon, it should have been deleted.

I actually found this site in the meantime. http://www.ebay.com/clp/used-train-tracks/4149?query=Condition%3AUsed%7CType%3ATrain+Tracks

Unfortunately, I cannot offer you any help with this. I have found matches with Orbrium, Maxim Enterprise, Imaginarium (toys R Us), and Right Track Toys to be compatible with Thomas Train sets and because they offer better prices, I have not purchased any from Fisher Price.

I'm not sure what you mean by Disney cars but Matchbox and hot wheels cars work well on this ramp. I believe the Disney cars are bigger so I'm not sure but I would think they are too big. The ramp come with four wooden cars as well.

The cars do not move by themselves. I recently purchased the train station set and found that the train does move by itself after you push the button on the smoke stack.

Yes and my son loves his. The color on this specific train has lasted longer than most, or my son does not play with Rheneas as much as his Thomas and Percy, whose paint is now chipping.

I do not have any of those tracks, so I can't tell you for sure if they do or not. I do have a Thomas the Tank Engine set and an old Brio set.

Hi Marshall in sorry I gave the set as a gift to a train collector who really kniw his stuff. If I can get an answer from him I'll try. Ty

These train cars are narrow. The would probably fit on the track, but probably not very well. The go go vehicles are quite a bit wider than these trains are. I know they work with the Right Track & Orbium as well as the Thomas track systems. We have a mixture of all of those.

I'd check ebay for extra tracks. There's one auction up there currently for about $18...another is asking $25, which is probably a huge ripoff, but keep checking, from time to time. Also, PM the person setting up the auction, they might be willing to put it up at a different price if it doesn't sell the first time. Amazon also sells straight LEGO train tracks, so that might be your best bet. $20 and done.

Since both sets are on the same gauge and manufactured by Lionel, yes you can. The set also comes with a controller you can use as a backup or sell. I love the set.

no other train cars, but you can purchase separate ones that work with track, pretty sure all of them have the smart technology when they hit that certain part in the track, but the other vehicles don't move on their own, they do make noise and have to be pushed

Yes, Matchbox cars will work, as well as Hot Wheels, and the little wooden cars & trucks that go with train sets. This is a well made set, but allow plenty of time for assembly! Once done, it will last for years. My 4-year old grandson absolutely loves this garage set. Sparks imagination - good old fashioned fun!

Let me see if understand what you're asking...would two of the same type work? Evidently Barbie's Dream Car works great on the ramp, too, so anything with the same width wheel base should work! Thomas the Train also flies down just fine!

I feel your pain. my 4yr old has been a Thomas/train fanatic since he was 1.5 yrs old and has about every engine they produce. I found Bash @ WalMart, stumbled upon Dash @ BigLots and cannot find Ferdinand anywhere. The train HAS been released, however, because I've seen them on ebay... one for $99 and another offer to buy all three for $125! The ad says it won't be released until 2011. If that is so, how are ppl getting them to sell on ebay? People are actually paying these ridiculous amounts for these trains... I dont get it, either. All I've heard from my son is, "where's Ferdinand?" "I need Ferdinand."

When I bought it, it was the brand name Great Train, same as picture. You can also buy it at Costco if you have them near you or are a member or know someone that is.
