Do the talking trains run by battery on take-n-Play track or does the child have to push the train?

The talking trains run by battery for the lights and sound, but do not roll on the track by battery. The child has to push the train.

The child really have to push the train, it causes the child to interact more with the game, creating their own history. Trains with batteries, are nicer but leave the child more nervous because they do not create the game, and do not control the game. We chose the line of Thomas the Train Take n play since our son was 3, he is now 5 years old and still plays enough, talking online is the most fun, the trains are beautiful and fancy, yet the child riding the slopes like a big puzzle that exercises the intelligence of the child, making her think. Very recommended ...

Paul, I'll have to get back to you on your question. My grandson has the talking train at his house. I will be going over there on Friday and then I will be able to answer your question. By that time, you probably will have your answer.

Only the battery operated cars. A child could push a hotwheels on the track.

You can play with these off or on the tracks. Run with batteries and will go go go!

You have to push the train. You also have to swivel the bridge back and forth. My 3 year old grandson loved playing with it.

They can be pushed around without any trouble. Most of the trains use one "AA" battery or one "C" battery. The battery life holds up pretty good, unless the train gets left own or stuck somewhere for awhile. Our son is three and has other train sets, the Trackmaster is his favorite!

This train only works on the small Take-n-Play. This is not a track master Emily.

No. Most trains in this collection are kid powered. Some of the accessories are battery powered for lights, sound, etc. There are very few battery powered Thomas trains that are compatible with the Wooden Railway system.

According to my daughter, this little train engine runs all over the place. When it hits something, it changes direction and off it goes. Both my 4 year old grandson and his two year old sister enjoy playing with it. My daughter is not crazy about the music. One plus because of the noise, when it's running, you know where it is.

This is a manual train that must be pushed but I used it for a first train and my toddler loves it.

Yes, the motorized train can be pushed. My 3 year old grandson does that most of the time, as it can be difficult to turn off the engine with toggle switch. It goes forward and backwards, and "off" is in the middle. This is my grandson's FAVORITE toy. Hours and hours of fun.

Yes. Once the train is set up properly, which is simple, the controls are quite straightforward and a toddler would have no problem with it. The power source to the tracks is DC. (AC converted to DC)

no batteries so you have to pull or push..most times my grandson pulls it by the firehose..He does play with it constantly though and now his 2 year old sister plays with it,raising ladder and sticking little figures in cab..a great toy...

No, thank goodness. This is not a battery operated toy. We've had it for 6 months now and it works great- my 5 year old can manage all the moving parts easily and still loves it.

These need to be pushed in order to go anywhere. No batteries. They are a great buy for any kid that likes trucks. Very sturdy too.
