Product Description
Now kids can add a flexible tunnel to their GeoTrax Railway, along with a working water wheel! Add an RC train to Rocky Falls Tunnel, and through the magic of GeoMotion, the water wheel turns and sound effects (nature sounds, train sounds and water sounds) happen! (You can also activate the water wheel by hand.) The tunnel is made of expandable fabric, so you can set it up different ways. It can cover 6" straight track, 6" curved track and 9" curved track. Includes mountain tunnel with working water wheel, two expandable fabric tunnels (expand up to 28") and two railroad crossing gates (RC train sold separately). Requires 3 "AA" (LR6) batteries (not included).

A Versatile Addition to Your GeoTrax Town
By D. R. Jeanclerc
The entire line of GeoTrax Road 'n' Rail toys is great for kids ages 2 1/2 and up. They promote imaginative play and creative design, they're attractive and solidly-constructed, etc. However, while some of the add-ons are better conceived than others, the Rocky Falls Tunnel is among the best.The set consists of a hard plastic arched junction and two flexible fabric lengths of tunnel. These tunnel pieces are detachable so that they can be used separately or as part of this set. However, when they're not attached to the main base, it looks unfinished, i.e. you can definitely tell that pieces have been removed. Also, when using the fabric tunnel pieces in any capacity, they're very picky about curves - the train will oftentimes get stuck in the tunnel if it's not used on a straight section of track. So, it's best use is with a T-intersection in the middle and straight tracks coming out of all sides. The set unfortunately includes no track pieces.The set's operation is controlled by the train passing through, but not in the traditional GeoMotion way. When the train passes through, it trips a light sensor under the archway which triggers the water wheel as well as some cool sound effects. The sounds include both train and nature effects; the set randomly selects which sounds to play with each pass-through. The set also occasionally throws out a random nature sound even when the train isn't coming through, which adds fun atmosphere to the overall landscape. The sounds are well-recorded and volume is just right.When completely assembled, the set is on the large side (just shy of the roundhouse or Mile High Mountain base for comparison), so plan on your GeoTrax layout growing when you add the Falls. Overall, this add-on is a lot of fun and the versatility that it offers makes it a great addition to anyone's GeoTrax collection.PROS* Motion-sensor trigger for sounds and actions works very well* Sound effects are fun and pleasant* The detachable fabric tunnel pieces also fit into each other for use elsewhereCONS* Flexible fabric tunnels are picky when used with curved tracks* When the fabric tunnels are removed, the main piece looks unfinished - why not include hard plastic caps that look like the rocks?

Fun!
By Jennifer L. Mitchell
This addition to the track is a lot of fun. the green part of the tunnel is fabric, so you can put the tunnel on a curve. My 5 year old daughter loves it because she puts her Polly pockets in the "pool" on the top. Fun for all.
