He can pull many cars and goes up ... *by K***M on Reviewed in the United States on January 5, 2017* This guys is awesome. He can pull many cars and goes up hills and around corners just fine. He doesn't get suck on uneven tracks either, like some said.He is heavy and well built. Not hard to change battery.Very happy with purchase!I would advise you adhere to the recomended age of 3+ because the wheels will get stuck in hair when they're too young to know betterThis is super fun!!!Picture is of him pulling many cars up a double incline, like a champ! ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5.0 out of 5 stars A worthy mail carrier! *by G***E on Reviewed in the United States on January 21, 2017* 3rd one... they work great but they do wear out with hard play. My son loves them and to me they're worth the price. For what he puts them through and as often as he plays with them, they hold up as expected. Would be nice if you could change the rubber on the wheels, but that would probably be a choking hazard. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4.0 out of 5 stars Won't fit all tracks!!! *by J***I on Reviewed in the United States on January 3, 2018* The media could not be loaded. Very nice quality, heavy enameled metal body and easy push button on/off switch. Good traction, will run on thin carpet as well as tracks and floors, and will tow cars nicely, at least a couple. Goes rather slow but that makes it simple for little kids to push the switch while moving. ****BUT*** it doesn't fit IKEA tracks. Major MAJOR bummer bc all of our fancy bridges and turnstiles are IKEA. I prefer those tracks bc they have tighter joints. But they are ever-so-very-slightly wider than the Melissa & Doug track pieces i have. The tracks all fit together so i assumed if it would fit one it would fit the other but the middle section is just a bit wide on the IKEA tracks and that teensy bit is enough to catch up the wheel wells of the trains and prevent the wheels from riding the groove. So the wheels spin in the air. Picture included for clarity. Overall good toy, but a greater allowance in design would make these ride so much better and i wish i wish i wish i had know they wouldn't fit!!!! --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co.za/products/1817623-thomas-and-friends-wooden-railway-train-percy-battery-operated-train](https://www.desertcart.co.za/products/1817623-thomas-and-friends-wooden-railway-train-percy-battery-operated-train) --- *Product available on Desertcart South Africa* *Store origin: ZA* *Last updated: 2026-09-28*
