    We've got the interactive and just hate the track! It doesn't stay together properly and the higher up parts don't stay on the support posts very well. And the trains don't seem to talk to each other as much as they did at first.

    We've got lots of chuggington and I agree about the tracks, they are crapola I saw wooden chuggington tracks in toys r us a little while ago, but I think they had different trains again for them, like the thomas ones with magnets to join them together.

    Heh heh maybe! Or maybe they've just given up trying to get a word in around my DS! Yeah we've ended up putting the higher up parts away for awhile and just using the flat bits. The track's less interesting but at least it stays together a bit more.

    I don't see why glue wouldn't work, as long as you don't want to change the set up..

    DS pulls the track apart and cause it doesn't go together too easy, I took it down cause he was getting too frustrated.. But, I just tried the train on an ikea wooden track, and it fits really well and he can build that one, so I think I will get that out for him..

    That's not good news about the tracks, Luckily I bought everything on sales at prices better than half price. Maybe all these kinds of dramas is why they aren't going to be making it anymore? If we end up having to glue the track together I'm not fussed but it is fun to be able to change it around. Maybe just gluing some parts if need be would still be ok. Anyway I've decided to go all out and grab some more trains from OS

    Big Chugger fans here, DS has the entire die cast set, and three interactive chuggers, he is getting 3 more for christmas

    The only ones that are compatable with Thomas is the wooden collection, they fit on the Thomas tracks and join together with the magnets - We have a Wilson, Koko and Brewster in the wooden set for that reason

    DS loves loves loves his die cast set (much more than the interactive ones) and plays with them endlessly, his favourite is Action Chugger. He is also getting a few of the diecast track playsets for christmas which is exciting for all of us

    I saw a Chuggington bike at Toys R Us for $50 which I plan to get for his 3rd birthday too
