I chose these to see your opinions on trackmaster throughout the years.
You missed out Trackmaster made by Tomy in 2009. The Thomas & Friends Trackmaster Wikia also ignores this product line but I have several engines and one set (Super Sodor) which are made by Tomy and carry the Trackmaster logo!
I think Tomy and HiT Toys circa 2009 are the best Trackmaster products out there. That is when I started buying these toys for my youngest son and also bought several Tomy Motor Road & Rail engines that were still in stock, which are identical to the Trackmaster engines that followed.
I did not have any HiT Toy products originally but recently manged to find new old stock Bertram & Duke in the US. Excellent runners and much better than the Fisher Price Duke that followed. If you run them side by side the HiT Toys version is much quieter, faster and fuel efficient. Battery life is much extended. Cheers.
