Thomas Trackmaster Expansion Pack
My son loves his Trackmaster Expansion pack for his Thomas trains. For weeks and weeks we went to the store and all he seemed to want was the individual trains and cars, but all we had was like 10 pieces of track (which was constantly being used). Once we bought this pack of track, he had enough to build a pretty big setup most of the cars could ride on at once. This set you can actually use the lid as piece of track too!
- Expand your TrackMaster™ railway system with this super track expansion pack!
- Yards of track and accessories come in this handy storage case with a built-in handle.
- The lid doubles as a 3-D train platform with its own built-in track!
- Recommended ages 3 and up
Product Description

The box is filled with straight and curved tracks, switches, sloped curve tracks, and other accessories so you can expand your existing track system! No batteries required. Measures 13″ x 11″ x 4.25″…. More >>
Hit Toys – Track Exansion Pack
I was looking for additional track and found this to be a great value. The track I have now is wood, and I assumed these pieces would be wood also since the product packaging and description did not say otherwise and the photos on the product packaging “look” like wood. There is absolutely no mention anywhere saying what the tracks are made of.
So my amazement, when the track arrived, we found it is plastic! It does snap together a bit easier than the wooden track we have, but doesn’t look as nice as the wooden track.
NOTE: If you have wood track, this plastic track is NOT interchangable and can not be used to expand a wood track system. Again, the product description is highly misleading as this is promoted as a “Track Expansion Pack”
Overall I am extremely dissapointed with the highly misleading and deceptive manner the way this product is packaged and described, you assume it will be made from wood like most of the track is and have no way of telling otherwise. I won’t purchase from this vendor again, and shame on Amazon for not requiring more disclosure as to what materials the track is made of.
If you want a cheap plastic track that doesn’t always lay flat, then buy this. If you want wood track, or to expand wood track, don’t buy this.

I purchased this for my nephew in the US to expand his current wooden set and from the picture on the box it looks like a wooden track. After my nephew received it they discovered it was plastic much to my dissapointment as it is no use to him. I since read the description and nowhere does it mention that the track is plastic or wooden. I suppose if you have the corresponding sets you’d automatically know it was plastic but hey was trying to find something that did not require me posting it. Will in future just buy in the UK and post myself at least I’ll know he’ll receive what I want him to have.
Picture/description NEEDS to be better.

This was for my two year old son. He loved the little pack of tracks that he had so we had to buy more for him. My four year old daughter loves it too. It keeps them entertained for a long time, which is wonderful!

Had old blue tracks before. You get many pieces of tracks on this set and would nicely complement any other Thomas Trackmaster sets you may have. These new tracks are much nicer than the old blue ones as you get to elevate the tracks as well. Look nicer and more durable as well. However, this set does not come with any adaptors to allow the old blue tracks to be used together. I have seen special editions of the new Trackmaster sets that come with the adaptors so worth looking out for these. Otherwise you can buy the adaptors separately but they are very pricey.

My two boys love the thomas tank Sodor wooden railway system they spend all day making new train tracks in the back room. Nice to have found an other good thomas site for kids we all are great railroad fans.

how much of this track do you need to make a good sized layout – like a figure 8?
some of the sets have track that is slightly angled and doesn’t fit as well…
we have a lot of this train track…
I bought a lot of this train track for Thomas on eBay…
do they still make this expansion track now that Fisher Price is making it?
my son has all kinds of expansion tracks for Thomas and his trains…
you can never have enough Thomas trackmaster expansions!
Since we bought our son the Trackmaster expansion pack – he’s building new Thomas train layouts all over the house!
You can never have enough Thomas trackmaster tack!
