Hey Chris, don't worry, when I was younger we had a big stacker box of track and we would make a new track each time we wanted to play, pretty much like my sons track is now! I don't know if I've said before but my brother is autistic, he's 26 now and lives in sheltered housing, when I was younger he had a tomy train set (the dark blue type track) I bought bits and we used to share, he liked watching the trains, but like Ben he didn't like it when things went wrong! He was quite destructive too he liked braking things, so the girder bridges got broke (along with all my long straights in my k'nex and bits of my Lego!) he also liked waking down the track so some bits split, it was a great toy, and the majority of the old track survived, we still play with it when I take my children to my mums house. Mathew (my brother) is pretty severe on the autism scale and he doesn't speak although he can make a lot of noise when he wants too! He has always loved thomas and I can remember watching VHS's with him of thomas series 1,
