Lots & Lots of Trains Volume 1 - Smokin Steam and Diesel

I purchased this dvd for our 2 year old grandson for Christmas and we have played it over and over again. The video shows all types of trains in action and is set to music. It is not an educational video, but purely for enjoyment. We had an old educational train video that our grandson liked to watch, but was so corny that the rest of the family dreaded him asking to watch it. That is not the case with Lots and Lots of Trains - we all enjoy watching this video with him. It is fun to watch the trains and listen to the lively music. I highly recommend it for train lovers of all ages.

My son LOVES trains and this was perfect for him! The songs that play during the movie are cute and fun to sing along to. I am very happy with this purchase and would recommend the movie to any mom with young children. I only have one complaint, and that is the movie does not automatically start over once it ends. This would not be a big deal if it were a longer movie but I do have to constantly restart the DVD.

Perfect for my 2.5 year old son who loves “real trains”. I really enjoy the music. Great DVD. I purchased more. I like the songs so much, I wish I could purchase the soundtrack or have Alexa play them!

My son likes the video enough, but that is because he likes to see trains no matter what. The video is horribly short...and probably not worth the amount you pay. I am disappointed and wish that the creators could have been more honest and let people know that it is just snippets of a lot of different trains. We also have Train Crazy Kids, which is much better...it is longer and has some narration about the trains the kids see. But overall I am seriously disappointed in the length of the video. The video claims to be "approx" 45 min. I really think it is closer to 20 minutes long. I will time it and hopefully post that.*Update* My son loves this DVD. Enough so that I had to purchase #3. He watches them all the time. I do think they are a bit short, but if he doesn't mind and loves them then they were a great buy. I can still only give 4 stars because I feel they are a bit short. If your kid loves trains like mine does, then they will probably love these movies.

My 3 year old and 2 year old love trains. We have lots of Thomas the Tank Engine movies(which they love), but I was so happy to find something with "real trains" in it. They love watching this over and over and sing a long to the music. It is a really neat movie that shows all different types of trains in lots of different settings. It is a great DVD for the train lover in your family.

My son was bugging me for this video for a long time. I had won a gift certificate for Amazon. I was weary at first because I have never purchased off of this web site before. I had no problems I set up an account and used my gift certificate and within a week I recieved the video. The video was wonderful and we watch it all the time. If you or your children love trains, this is the video for you. Thanks Amazon!

My 4 year old, choo choo crazed, boy LOVES all of the Lots and Lots of Trains DVDs. I like it because its not a cartoon. Sometimes the theme song gets stuck in my head, but I'll deal with that so my boy can see his favorite trains chug down the tracks! Thanks Lots and Lots of BIG Trains! We love it.

Video was nowhere near what I expected. It was a waste of every penny I spent. 300 snippets, and not a single piece of data. Railroading is rewarding only when you know where a particular shot was taken, you are told about the engines & rolling stock, & something about the specific railroad you are watching. It MUST be educational, which this video is NOT ! I cannot return it, per Amazon's policies, so I guess I will have to simply throw it away, & chalk this whole thing up to experience. I only gave it 1 star, because the site forced me to; I had not intended to give it any.
