City Tracks - Train Track Expansion Set - Additional 20 Pieces Compatible with Our Sets - 8 Straight, 4 Curved, & 8 Flexible Tracks - 60205

These are great LEGO train tracks. If you've been on the market for LEGO train tracks, you know these aren't cheap. Full disclosure, I'm a LEGO purist, which means I almost always only buy LEGO brand and refuse to purchase non-LEGO knock-off brands. This set of LEGO train tracks is very similar to the latest set of LEGO train tracks, which at the time of writing this review, are still on the market (set 7499, LEGO City Flexible Tracks 7499 Train Toy Accessory ). The only difference between this set (60205) and the 7499 set for sale is that you get 4 curved-tracks and not as many of the flexible track pieces. Otherwise, both these sets are very similar. Having said all that... I want this review to be helpful and honest, therefore, I'm going to share an alternative. So, if you're looking for very similar non-LEGO train tracks that look almost identical, come with more straight tracks (which are always in demand), and cost far less, then I would recommend checking out the tracks sold by Sprite World which you can purchase via Amazon: 18X Straight Trains Rail Non-Powered Rail Compatible for Major Brands Train Tracks Track Railroad Construction Toy OR 24X Train Tracks Non-Powered City Railroad Compatible With Major Brands Building Block Toy Gifts . If you notice in my pictures, I've put the LEGO brand on the left and the non-LEGO brand on the right. As you'll see, they look almost identical. Additionally, I've got both LEGO brand and non-LEGO brand connected in my LEGO city for my train and they work flawlessly together. The only slight issue I've found with the non-LEGO brand tracks is that they sometimes don't fit on the LEGO brand baseplates. In other words, if you're not looking to lock the non-LEGO brand train tracks onto a LEGO baseplate, then you don't have to worry. This is really a very minor issue when you consider how well the non-LEGO brand tracks function. In closing, these train tracks are great and they are excellent LEGO quality. If your budget allows you to purchase all LEGO brand, then by all means, stick with all LEGO. If you're looking to create a long and lengthy train track and you're working with a limited budget, I've found it much more manageable by purchasing the above-mentioned non-LEGO brand tracks. Hopefully you found this review helpful. If so, please let me know below. If you have any questions, don't hesitate to ask. Happy bricking!

Extra tracks for Lego trains

Great tracks my grandson loved them. He plays with them all the time with his other toys.

We have the large train set and purchased these Legos so the train could have more room to roam. They work great and the Lego lovers in our home enjoy having the extra tracks for their train

Enjoyed well by grandson age 6

Nice tracks but never fully fulfilling the need for some of the runs I’d like to add. Have to drop the “Lego” purist’s ideology and buy outside the mainstream. You can find equivalent products

My grandson loves it with his cars he received

Great Lego Train Accessory to have on hand. We play with these often with our Legos!
