One Smartville Alphabet Train Station review complaint was about the placement of the on / off / play mode switch and that her son would rather turn it on and off repeatedly rather than play with the rest of it. But she also stated that the switch must be made very durable because it has not worn out yet and that she was going to buy Smartville Alphabet Train Station for her niece on her first birthday. Another vTech Smartville Alphabet Train Station review criticism was that the train was not motorized, mom and dad were disappointed it did not go around the track by itself, but said that their two year old just loved to push the train around the track. With such minimal negative concerns this toy is almost guaranteed to be one of the top toys 2008.
