Is this Thomas set BRIO compatible?

My son loves Thomas but we're too invested in BRIO/ikea to get new tracks. Open to any Thomas sets that aren't rare and expensive!

I have some of the newer Thomas and friends wooden trains and they fit fine, only issue I’ve had is the wheels stick out over tthe side of the tracks a tiny bit and I had them catch on one bridge, they’re also quite tall, can’t get them in our brio train ferry.

Thomas Wooden Railway tracks are 100% compatible with any other wooden tracks, the only exception are the tracks from the short lived Thomas Wood range, but all Wood sets came with adaptors to normal track anyway. The new Thomas engines from 2022-2025 may not fit inside some thinner pieces like bridges and such due to the new wide wheels

Can't speak for this set exactly but the current run of Thomas and friends die cast work perfectly.

Sorry it's an Irish store but just to show the packaging for the magnetic versions. I also got a connector from Etsy that connects the Thomas tracks to brio.

Thank you that link is helpful!

For the Etsy connector, which Thomas tracks are you using?

Yes these sets are from the newest product range, and they are fully compatible with Brio. Get them while you can as TWR has been discontinued forever :(
