Amazon.com Review:
The brightly structured world of Thomas the Tank Engine and his friends will appeal to the orderly side of preschoolers as they help rescue a derailed engine, put it back on the tracks, spiff it up, and get it back to work. If your older toddler glows when told he or she is helpful or a hard worker, this CD-ROM will put them in junior train-engineer heaven.
The story begins with an engine named James eagerly heading out to get more coal for the other engines, but things don't go quite as planned; James has an accident on a sharp corner because he's being too hasty. Kids get to help rescue James and restore him to his shiny, bright-red self by completing eight activities that will test their problem-solving skills, spatial abilities, and deductive reasoning. They must find James, properly assemble crane gears to get him lifted back onto the track, collect coal, find the proper parts, and install them on James by listening to whistles, looking at train parts, and then putting everything in its place. Once James has a full tank of water and a full bin of coal, kids get to drive the repaired engine. This is the best part of this friendly CD-ROM, as it demonstrates to little locomotive fans how steam engines work, from shoveling coal to goosing the throttle.
Each activity has three levels, and Trouble on the Track also has clickable surprises interspersed throughout each activity, something that earlier Thomas offerings lacked. Kids can visit Sir Topham Hatt's office to see and print their certificates (they get one for every level of each activity they complete) or various pictures that they can color, turn into puzzles, or simply hang on their walls. Everyone from the Horrid Lorry to the Troublesome Trucks is here, and Thomas the Tank Engine fans will enjoy this program as it gently chugs along. (Ages 3 and older) --Anne Erickson

Seven engaging activities, rich 3-D animated graphics, and printable certificates of completion are designed to keep little Thomas fans interested. Opportunities abound to practice color matching, shape sorting, counting, and more. And fans won't want to miss new video sequences featuring Thomas and his friends.

My 4 year old is a Thomas fan & just had to have this. I had my doubts about whether he would be able to play it, but the game is excellent for young children!
It has lovely graphics of all the favourite Thomas characters, great puzzles that have 3 stages of difficulty so it will keep them amused for longer, and of course, a wonderful moral throughout the whole game.
Overall, a definite MUST-HAVE for the kids!

Another respondent has suggested that "Thomas the Tank Engine: Trouble On The Tracks" destroyed his computer. I seriously doubt this. It sounds like he unknowingly bought a pirated version that had a virus on it; or, more likely, this was just a coincidence of the person installing the Thomas CD, just when a virus was set to detonate.
This game is lovely for young children and, if you can still find it, well worth the its budget price. This is not high-end, 3-D, cutting edge software. ... Read More

This is the 3rd time I have purchased this game for my children. I have not had any trouble with the game, it's just that little hands aren't always careful with it. My 6 and 4 year olds have been playing it since they were 4 and 2 both of them love it. I Highly recommend this game.

I can't believe this product is getting such bad ratings. Our 3 year old Thomas fan loves this game! We had minimal work at teaching him the navigation of the game, he easily figured it out himself through the verbal directions. It has continued to entertain him for the last two months. As well, it was easily installed on an XP operating system with absolutely no complications.

My son first played this game at our local public library and immediately fell in love with it. So, when we purchased our own computer, this was one of our first software purchases. The interaction in the game is great and allows the user the chance to do lots of different things, such as loading coal into a truck or connecting gears in the proper sequence to enable a crane to remove a disabled train from the tracks. It encourages critical thinking from the child while providing hours of fun. The ... Read More
