[quote=Anonymous]We have no room for a table, so we don't regret not having one. The floor is adequate. But if you have the space, a table would rock. The younger kids, especially, tend to destroy the tracks they've set up just by moving the trains around. They're not agile enough yet on the floor. That said, my main piece of advice is look at how the bridges/tunnels are constructed. Do they require supports underneath/multiple pieces? Or are they stable blocks themselves? The ones with supports are really only OK for older children. My little ones knock them over all the time, and we even had to remove one pair from their train bin. For storage, we have a cube system (with the soft fabric bins), and all our train pieces live in one bin. We have two sets: a Thomas set and a Pottery Barn set. I like the PB tracks much much better, but the Thomas trains are more interesting. Everything is interchangeable.[/quote]
