Please note these are wooden trains, NOT diecast. They are also compatible with BRIO trains and track!
Thomas and Friends Wooden Railway toys have been around since the mid 1990's, and unfortunately, they have begun to show their age in many cases such as these. This listing is dedicated to trains that I have identified as being in fair to broken condition, they are not passable for regular play in terms of quality. Unlike the Grade C listing, these trains have a significant amount of paint chipping on the edges and corners to the point that the wood has begun to erode. Paint will be definitely missing on flat or curved surfaces in large sections, and may also be damaged or broken in some way (Cracked wood, broken/missing wheels, etc.)
As they have these issues, their use is effected, I have tried to price these fairly based on their market value and take into consideration the condition of them. The pricing has decreased greatly compared to what they would be priced as Grade A, and is still below Grade A by $5-$8. Trains may or may not function as intended.
I tried to judge the conditions of these trains based on the following criteria: the paint chipping covers not only corners or edges, but also any surfaces in large sections. The paint has been significantly damaged and will be immediately obvious. The train may also have broken features such as wheels or bases. If a train had a coal tender or any additional tenders, only the main train engine was considered under this criteria.
If you're worried about the particular condition of a character, please feel free to reach out to ask for up close photos so you can decide for yourself if it meets your standards for its condition. I will provide photos as quick as I possibly can, and as detailed of photos as I can. I am more than happy to work with you and ensure that you are satisfied with your purchase, before and after receiving it, so please do not hesitate to inquire about any questions or concerns you may have.
If there is a character that I do not currently have listed as an option that you are looking for, please feel free to reach out and ask! I will gladly see if I happen to have it in stock, or find you one that is in good condition for a reasonable price.
If you're looking for any other brands or ranges of Thomas toys, please feel free to look at my store as I am always adding new listings and adding new stock. Please ensure that you are purchasing the right brand or range you're looking for before purchasing!
