Q: Has anyone tried attaching 2 of these engines together and operating together with 1 remote? Does it make it easier to pull longer trains or faster?

I have not tried putting 2 together. In regards to the remote, had multiple issues with it. Broke day one, replaced it... Broke within a week again. Sent back. Quality is lacking with this but haven't found anything strong with a remote. Lionel makes a great G-Guage for kids. Little pricey ($120) but quality and strength are second to none.If you want to stick with the wooden track set, the battery powered (push button) Thomas locomotives are the strongest I've found, but always had issues with the button sticking/not working as well. Remember, you get what you pay for.

Q: Does anyone know if this train compatible with Thomas or Melissa and Doug track?

Yes it does. We have Thomas and IKEA tracks and it works great on both. It also runs on the floor. It is an amazing train for kids and you don't need to buy new tracks! We haven't even needed to change the batteries yet. I bought it for my 5 year old son and now I 'm going to have to get one for my 2 year old daughter. It has become the most played with toy in my house. I highly recommend it.

Q: Does the sound come out of the engine or the controller? Or both?

The sound comes from the engine.

Q: whats the range on the controller? We have a large amount of wooden trains and wondering if this will reach the other end of the table (9'-10')

YES it will. But it uses an infra red signal so there must be an unobstructed "line of sight" from the controller to the locomotive. any obstruction... say a building, mountain, house will block the signal and temporarily lose control. The engine will not stop, for a time until it clears the obstruction. Very satisfactory for me! I cannot understand why Brio has not made other configurations such as old time logging locos etc. Range ( within reason ) is not the critical factor, obstruction is! Try bouncing the signal off a nearby wall or >> the ceiling! Ask more questions if you need to.
