Product Information
Full details
The BRIO Dinosaur Circle Set is an engaging, 12-piece wooden train set designed for children aged three and older, perfect for sparking imaginative play and developing motor skills. The set features a unique dinosaur-themed layout with a movable Brontosaurus figure, a train with a wagon, and classic magnetic coupling accessories. While it offers excellent creative value, it is a starter-sized set, which means its circular track layout is relatively small compared to larger, expansive BRIO rail collections.

Yes, it is fully compatible with the entire BRIO World ecosystem.
What is the final size of the track layout?

Is the dinosaur figure removable?

Troubleshooting
Train does not stay on the track
Check that all track pieces are securely joined and that the surface is flat and level.
Magnetic couplers are not connecting
Ensure the magnets are clean and that you are attempting to connect the correct polarities; rotate one of the train cars 180 degrees if they repel.
Dinosaur head mechanism feels stiff
Gently check the tail hinge for any obstructions or dirt; a small wipe with a dry cloth usually resolves friction issues.
