Bought this for my son as a gift for my son. He was so excited and immediately began playing with it and his trains. It was soon discovered that none of his engines can fit under the bridge, on a train track. We have original Thomas the trains, and compatible trains and tracks. The tunnel is just barely too short. It's really frustrating. My son no longer uses it as an over the tracks bridge.

We are very pleased with this addition to our track. Not only can you build an interesting over/under track, but the thing we like best is that it is so stable. We have a similar stone bridge that has a span in between the sides, and that one is also very nice, but our two-year-old always dislodges the span. This one has a much more stable design, as the span is one solid piece, with two solid end pieces.Clearance: With a track going under the bridge, all of the standard-height Thomas trains will clear just fine. (Clearance from the top of the track to the top of the opening is 2" -- not counting the grooves for the wheels.)

This is an excellent piece to add to any train set. My son loves it.Thomas the train trains will fit under the bridge unless the tracks passing under is connected to an ascending or descending track. You need to add another flat piece of track and it should fit fine.We have had this piece for a few months and it is holding up well. Good quality, good piece.

Works with Brio, Thomas, and Ikea... we love our Maxim tracks! Really nice quality and excellent value. Love this easy to use bridge -versus some more precarious styles-this guy is easy to assemble and doesn't fall down... perfect for the toddler & preschool crowd

Gave this to my son for his 2nd bday with a bunch of other amazon "off" brand wooden train set track and other bridges and tunnels. For the cost of a small name brand set, I was able to put together a really nice big set!! All the Thomas trains work great on it and the track with trains on it fit just fine under the bridge, straight out of the box. My two yo can set it up and move it around without any help. He's already had hours of fun with it!!

I bought this bridge to go with my child's other wooden train tracks, some of which are genuine Brio and some of which are knock-offs. This bridge fits fine with all the tracks. It is tall enough that even the taller Brio train cars can pass underneath if you build the track to go through the tunnel. Because the pieces are big and chunky, and painted with an easy-to-identify pattern, this is one of the easier wooden railway components for very young children to use. My two-year-old's motor skills are not yet developed enough to build a bridge or overpass using the curved tracks and risers that you see in some wooden track sets, but he can assemble this one with no problem. Personally, I don't love the fake stone design... find the genuine Brio version of this bridge (which is unpainted) to be a bit more attractive. However, the painted design does help small kids to spot the correct pieces. And, of course, this version costs much less than the Brio one.

In response to another review saying this piece wouldn't be of the same quality as original Thomas parts...actually, I think this is much better quality. It's actually solid hardwood, not compressed particle board material, and it's a wonderful, unique piece.I'm very glad I bought it over 1.5 years ago as it remains one of my train-obsessed, now 3-year-old son's favorite pieces. When younger, he spent hours learning to slide the 3 components together, and switching the pieces around and learning why they wouldn't work that way (though he discovered you can build a nice little ski jump with them...).I actually arrived (or, clicked) here again planning to buy a second one for his preschool classroom, as he loves to play with trains at school, too, so I keep a second set there for my son and his friends/classmates to play with. Realized I had never given a recommendation for the "stone bridge" so...here you go!Highly recommended. Has been used and abused by my son and his friends for 20 months and appears to be indestructible,

I was a little worried because some reviews said that the trains did not fit under the bridge. I did not have that issue. We have standard size wooden Thomas trains, and they all fit just fine under the bridge riding on the track. I am very impressed with the quality and durablitiy of the bridge, and my boys love that they can now add more track to their table. This piece also adds to the challenge of putting the track together, it is like creating their own huge puzzle over and over.
