It was already clear to me that the Talking power trucks and tenders were all identical in size and their covers were interchangeable, but I never tried it with the three engines I have. It's a bit unfortunate how FP never made one with a coach or rounded roof van, meaning there are no perfectly smooth covers for them. A nice unintended feature that could've been advertised.
I didn't think the Boulder destination with Thumper would be a mediocre design. If they were to have him slide in and out of the mountain instead of swaying and hitting, maybe his arms wouldn't have broken off during intended play. The TrackMaster Boulder Mountain is not only designed better, but the way it was advertised made it seem more exciting too (not to mention worth buying). I totally get why it became so tricky and frustrating to find.
