Can anyone recommend a good train set for this table that's not too big but not as small as the one included? Thanks!

My grandson had a Thomas the Train set where you could assemble the tracks that he was able to use on the table he loves the table and especially the Lego side.

It should be OK. You do have a little wiggle room with how far you can place the track from the front of the table. It comes with a nice template that you can work with.

I'll try to help out if I can - I'm not sure about the numbers 380 and 384. Are these stamped on the track pieces themselves, or on the box perhaps? I will look to let you know. All I know is that the 9 pc set I have fit with my train set purchased in 2000.

probably available somewhere if not on Amazon. I love the set. I know there are other tables that match the set that are bigger. I've seen them on Amazon.

Yes, it should. Over the past three years, I have bought my son several different wooden train track sets, and all of them go together just fine. Some pieces may be a bit more snug than others, but it should be fine. No problems that my son and I have ran into yet regarding wooden train track sets.

Hi there- I think the Trackmaster trains maybe a little wider than the wooden trains that are usually used on these tracks. I hope that helps.

It is a nice little train set and I would say you could add to it if you had another train, though I haven't tried it. As far as adding bridges I used building blocks and Legos to make bridges and tunnels my kids loved it. Just don't put the bridge too close to a corner or the train will derail!

Did you buy the set as one? It should have come with the table topper...they are two boards that were in the box upon purchase. If you bought it "second hand" and don't have the toppers, try calling Toys R Us...Imaginarium is their brand. I bet you can buy the toppers. But really, our kids never use the roads and such...the train covers up too much of it anyway. If you just have a flat surface the train would work all the same. I know it looks neat but reality is the train gets played all the time but cars on the road and such...not really. There just isn't a lot of space for the cards to roam while the track is set up.

I would actually recommend getting a different track if you are looking to add on to it. This beginner set is different from the standard sets and while there are conversion kits available, they are a bit of a pain to use.If you've already purchased this one, here are the two add-ons we purchased and overall, they work pretty well:Scalextric 1:32 Start Converter Track PackScalextric 1:32 Track Extension Pack 4

The description has this as 57.2X34.6X12.8. Has or does anyone know if there is a train table that will hold this in size??

We use the floor but a table would be a lot better. Personally though I would look into some different train sets. This one proved to be a huge waste of money for us. You only have enough tracks to put together either a small circle or the one set up shown here. There is no room for creativity. Also several parts broke in the first week of having opened it. On top of all that it also came in a terrible looking package that made it look like a used set that someone threw back in the box haphazard with no effort in making it even fit into the box. I wish you luck if you decide to give it a go though. We use the floor but a table would be a lot better. Personally though I would look into some different train sets.

Yes if you don't care about the high price. I bought two and they are great for holding all the extra train tracks and accessories my daughter has. Same high quality as the table. They roll under the table and do not connect to it at all. The price should be your only concern.

Hi, I have two Christmas Village Trains, They are wonderful, They should fit your project very well. They are very close in size to buildings, like they belong in your landscape

I am not sure if you can buy extra track. You might want to check with lego. I do know we have it on an old Thomas the Train table and most of the Lone Ranger lego towns fit inside of it.

having rails go underneath it, thomas trains barely fit through.. now if you dont have the rail go under, but just try to fit a chuggington train just by itself... maybe? prolly still not...? not sure--

I do not understand the question. This item is a train set. What 3 do you want to change to 1?

Hi, Christina! You'll find the breakdown of train gauges at http://www.trainsetsonly.com/page/TSO/CTGY/Scales. I grew up with O and S (Lionel) scale trains. I find the smaller ones HO and (eek) N a LOT more difficult to work with but they take up less space. The problem *I* have with the G-scale trains is that they are so large you need more room and accessories would take up that much more room as well. I once set up an 8' x 8' train layout in a room 8'2" x 8'4" and had four different tracks set up along with all of the landscaping and the dreaded N as an 'amusement park' ride. Because O is part of my family history I bought each of my Grandchildren their own set as an heirloom. It's all a matter of personal preference which may be at least partly driven by space availability! Thanks!
