Little J has become a fan of Thomas The Tank Engine over the past few months. We enjoyed a lovely day at Thomas Land last weekend and little J is also enjoying his new Thomas and Friends books so when we were given the chance to review Thomas - Remote Control Train we jumped at the chance.
Remote Control Thomas is easy to control, the remote has just two large buttons which is perfect for little hands. The large green button moves Thomas forward and the large yellow button spins Thomas around so he faces the opposite direction.
The Thomas train is a replica of the real Thomas The Tank Engine, ideal for Thomas fans.
Little J absolutely loves whizzing Thomas around our front room. Thomas works perfectly on our wooden floor and also works great on the rug too. We haven't tried Thomas yet on a thick, deep carpet so unsure how it would work.
Big J will often play with Thomas too and drive him though little J's legs. Little J finds it so funny.
When Thomas is moving along the floor he says a variety of phrases including
Hello, I'm Thomas
Lets Go
Full Steam Ahead
You're A Really Useful Engine Driver
Let's Keep Steaming Along
This Is Fun
Thomas also makes engine noises and toot toot sounds.
You can view our video of Thomas so you can see how he works.

What We Loved
We are big fans of remote control cars, trains and planes so this was perfect for us.
Easy to control, just two buttons makes it so much easier than other complicated remote controls.
Thomas actually does what you want - we have had other RC vehicles in the past that don't work well at all and just do their own thing.
Its Thomas and everyone loves Thomas.
What Could Improve
We were not impressed that Thomas takes a whopping six AAA batteries. They are not included and we didn't have any so I had to go out to the shop to buy some as little J couldn't wait till the next time I was at the shops.
