Perfect for train set

My son received this bridge a few months ago when he was almost three years old. It's cute, when the battery operated trains run around he needs to remember and run ahead to lift the red barrier gates, or we can direct him, "quick! lift the gates!" and he remembers and runs over quickly to lift the gates, it's fun. This little bridge comes with two ascending tracks. The bridge itself is 9" long without ascending track, with the ascending track on either side it would considered to be much longer. The main part of the bridge sits 3" high, the lifting tower with the red turning wheel is 6" high. It was a male connector on the lifting tower side and a female connector on the other, so the track is straight-through. How it works: The brige has two red cantilevered barrier gates that you lift with your fingers to let the pass over unobstructed. They hold in any position if you let go, so that's nice. The bridge is lifted by turning a little red wheel on the lifting tower that winches up a white string that is attached to the center of one side of the brige. It also holds in any position as you lift it up, but as you turn the wheel to winch it up, the bridge winches up and then drops an eensy bit, so it's a bit toddler-tricky to get used to (preschoolers would likely be ok with it, not tricky for grown ups). There's only an 1.5" of clearance between the base piece holds up the bridge and the red suspension bridge, and the base piece of wood isn't grooved in any way, so I don't know under what conditions Brio thinks the bridge would be lifted. My husband manages to run track underneath (it's a bit awkward and not that pretty), so that in order for a train to pass *under*, my son has to run ahead and lift the bridge, it doesn't look that great, but it does give an impetus to lift the bridge. The only improvement I would suggest to this bridge is to add connector and track grooves onto the the base piece so that you can run a track underneath -- that way the track user would have a need to lift the bridge itself. I'd say this bridge is appropriate for the early preschooler, ie. right around age 3 as knowing how to turn the little turn wheel is a bit tricky, and the user has to learn how the bridge holds as you winch it up. It's well made, Brio quality.

Great product

The little guy we bought the bridge for screamed in excitement when he saw this! (He has the Brio train and track) It arrived in perfect condition. The box alone is colorful and fun. He easily turned the wheel to lift the bridge. This is sturdy and colorful, providing endless playtime. Lots of smiles happening with this toy!

My grandson loves this!

Not much to say about it - works as expected, performs as expected. Has held up to a toddler and a baby pretty well thus far. My 3 year old can't really figure out how to make the drawbridge work (by using the crank) but enjoys it nonetheless, and she enjoys the 2 red drawbridge "stops". Seems well made and is cute. I got it on a great deal around Christmas-time. Most important (to me) - compatible with Ikea tracks. This comes with a bridge and 2 train tracks that slope up/downwards. One of those train tracks that slopes doesn't fit so great into our Ikea tracks, but the other works perfectly. Not a big deal, though I do always have to connect that on train track when my daughter decides to re-do the train because she cannot make them flush. Not a big deal and even with that, I would still say good compatibility with Ikea train tracks and Thomas Cars.

Three year old has spent a lot of time engaged with this bridge. He loves the moving parts -- two gates and the lift bridge that works. Nice that the two ramps are included for immediate play.

Excellent addition to our Brio train set for grandson who is 2. Original set was bought for his dad 30 years ago and is still in excellent condition. The bridge is great to play with and lots of stories are developed when doing so about bouts going under and cars etc. Great fun. It is extremely well made and sturdy, will definitely last.

Complemento perfecto para las pistas de la marca Brio. Mis hijos lo han usado desde hace 4 años y el puente sigue intacto. Se ve que está marca tiene accesorios de mucha calidad.

Prima in orde.

Çok kaliteli👍
