BRIO World Battery-Operated Steaming Train - 3-Piece Motorized Train Engine for Wooden Track with Lights and Kid-Friendly Steam - Interactive Play with Forward/Reverse - for Kids 3 & Up

This engine is great looking. It pulls strongly and produces steam. It turns itself off after 5 minutes which saves batteries. Hold the on button for 4 seconds and it takes off! After a full year of hard play the engine still pulls well. It is expensive, but it is well worth it. The kids, 1 and 3, love it. I just bought a second one and the new one works as well as the old one.

Our great nephew just loves this little train. The steam lasts for a really long time too. The hardest thing was figuring out how to start it and nothing in the instructions tells you. The answer is to hold down the top red button firmly for 3 seconds. We also have difficulty filling the train with water but that’s played just us. Overall, this was a huge hit

My grandson loves this engine! Sturdy construction holds up to his rough play! sound and steam are great! You can't go wrong with BRIO!

My 4.5 year old son loves this train. We thought it stopped working, but after looking it up, holding the power button for 3-5 seconds and it turned on again!

We bought this train in July for our grandson. The train worked fine at first but is now dead. We have changed the batteries but it no longer works. Disappointing for a Brio product!

This is a really nice train. We bought this to replace ‘Red Train’ from Brio. We wore out Red Train. This train is a nearly perfect replacement. It has two lights up front (which blink when the train is in reverse). STEAM!! You fill the engine (via the chimney) and it blows out cold steam. Super cool! It has a mild whine when running but otherwise has no noise. The train is heavy compared to other trains or cars. I think the extra weight is very helpful for traction. This was the biggest problem compared to Red Train. Red Train didn’t have enough traction. It had plenty of power though. This train has plenty of power (2 AAA batteries) to carry three or four cars even up inclines. It looks cool and works great. My four year old was able to operate this train after a brief instruction period (need to ‘push and hold’ the power button for example). I have it four stars because it solves the number one issue with Red Train - traction. It also has steam! The back of the train has the typical magnet connector instead of the tag-along trolley that Red Train has. This helps the train back up easier compared to Red Train. I took a star away because this train doesn’t have the Choo Choo and bell sounds that Red Train has and doesn’t have the red ‘reverse’ lights. I thought those were cool features. Overall this train is expensive but my kid loves it and it is a great replacement for Red Train that literally wore out.

The BRIO World 33884 Battery-Operated Steaming Train has been a big hit with my son! He absolutely loves the steam that comes out of the train when you press the action button. It adds a fun, interactive element to his playtime, and he’s fascinated by how the train works. The train is also well-made and sturdy, as expected from BRIO, and it pairs perfectly with other BRIO train sets. It’s a great addition to his collection, and I highly recommend it for any young train enthusiast!

Grandson loved it
