Clarabel's magnets are backward. Her face is in the back when connected to any other train. Is that the case with all of them?

That's funny. Didn't realize that but it is correct that Clarabel connects to Annie backwards.

Yea but they are supposed to be that way. Clarabel and Annie are supposed to always be connected so you get a face in the front and the back.

Not sure what you mean by compartments but the only magnets I noticed are part of the wooden train itself (so the three train pieces stay together while being pushed around the track). This is common with other wooden train sets (e.g. brio) as well. They don't appear to be de-attachable. There are no magnets on the train tracks.

Has a transformer that plugs into wall current and runs through track at lower voltage. Harmless current because current is reduced. I've had a Lionel train sonce 5 years old. 52 years ago.

At least one of the freight cars (the white tank) does have a magnet on top for toy cranes to pick them up. I can't find the log car, but I think it also has the magnet on top.

I called Fisher Price and the first rep said she did not know. i had to call a second 800# and the rep said the train is stand alone, other engines do not work on the track. What a bummer!! My son won't be too happy. i think the "take along" sets have other engines you can add . Wish i knew before i bought this.

Hello the Mark I should be from the first movie. There is a flux in each of the models I own all three. The only difference from this model and the mark I I is the second one has the mr. Fusion and the wheels fold under. Hope this helps. FYI there is no "antenna" on the mark I like in the end of the last movie and the boxes were random. Mine said back to the future I I but it was the mark I in the box.Cheers

I don't recall my daughter mentioning the wrong side. She would have definitely told me. The other person probably ordered the wrong generation. I'm looking in my daughters room now for it (wish me luck in this terror zone).

we figured it out! in the very front of the train on the top there is what looks like a hole but if you look in it, you see a tiny screw. you need a tiny screwdriver and then you unscrew and lift and it takes 2 AAA batteries!

I agree with Barbara. It works well, but will only control one locomotive at a time.

i noticed that also. the bell button doesn't work, but the whistle/horn does. the manual is misleading. it looks like it is specific to this train set, and describes the bell sound and dialog that happens when you press bell button. But it says on one page "the bell button will activate bell sounds on locomotives equipped with this feature." i dont think the engine in this set is equip with this feature, but it doesn't say that anywhere in the manual. i'm guessing the transformer has this capability with a different engine/tinder. i'll call Lionel to confirm.

Hi Melissa, No, this particular item isn't part of the talking railway series, though it does say things like "Welcome to Knapford Station!" when you mush a train over the inside track lane.Hope that's useful.

She is :) I personally didn't like that her body was a separate piece from the rest of her though. (The neck didn't flow smoothly into her body) I did return her :(

The bell sound is not an option on this model, there is a button on the transformer for a bell, however it is not compatible with this train, it does have a manually operated whistle.

There are symbols and train cars that are different on the cards but I think the playing board with trains on it would be frustrating. We would not recommend it...sorry because it is such a great game we are playing it right now.

I was confused, too, Misha. I finally realized that the small cylinder at the top that has the ring in it unscrews. It was attached tightly but, with a little effort, it will turn. That cylinder detaches completely and the top can then just be lifted off. I hope you haven't thrown the feeder in front a train like I felt like doing at first. By the way, finches love it. When it is full, they cover the outside of it.

yes nit does. Our Grandson has them all and uses this for whichever is his trains of the moment ..... He loves it
