Toys and Games Reviews of Bachmann Trains Snap - Fit E - Z Track Steel Alloy World's Greatest Hobby Track Pack
Customer Review: Cheaply made, not a great choice
Summary: 2 Stars
We bought this for my 9 yr old son as an expansion pack for a "Basic" train set. Now it sits in a box in the closet with all the other stuff we bought, because he got tired of the trains jumping the tracks. At first, the "EZ-TRACK" seems like a great idea - it looks more rugged than the stuff I had as a kid. But it isn't - they are hard to connect, and easy to connect wrong. The electric switches for the right and left turn-outs are VERY poorly made, and if you need to disconnect them, don't be surprised when the wire pulls out from the connector - they are REALLY poorly made! But the worst part is the turn-outs themselves. We couldn't figure out why the second or third car on the train was derailing every time it went over one of these turn-ous, but when we did it very slowly over and over, we noticed that the center track was wobbling slightly - turns out the rivet that holds it has too much "give", so the weight of the car moves it side-to-side, causing the lighter cars (in particular) to derail. And no, you can't fix it - I tried tightening the rivet, and later, replacing it with a wider one - its just badly designed... At first I thought I just had a bad turn-out, but I tried it with two others (left and right), and had exactly the same problem - THEY ARE JUNK!. Magnetic decoupler works "some of the time", and the couplers themselves are extremely fragile. THERE IS NOTHING WORSE THAN BUYING A TOY YOUR CHILD REALLY WANTS, AND WATCHING HIM LOSE INTEREST BECAUSE HE CAN'T MAKE IT WORK. Except, maybe, not being able to help, even after you figure out the problem... Bachmann "EZ-TRACK" is JUNK - save your child the disappointment, and buy a different brand.
