Additional track pieces are super to have for more interesting connections of playsets!
Update: There are 39 playsets in the Take-n-Play line as of summer 2013 - by setting a little money aside each week, Grandpa and I have collected all but a half dozen of them for our grandson, and were SO happy when Fisher-Price came out with new ways to connect them all in 2011! It's a bit surprising that while F-P widely distributed their TnP Bridge, Flexi-Track and S-Curve, they gave ToysRUs two great exclusives - this 22 piece Straight & Curved Track, as well as a 20 piece Straight, Curved & Crossings Track pack. We only paid $10.19 for our grandson's Straight & Curved Track pack, which was a great deal since ToysRUs has it at $17.99 as of summer 2013. Although all of the TnP sets connect up to each other, it's also great to have all of these other fun options. And now there's a Mini Spiral Track and a Bridge Pack (different from the "Bridge")!

Better description
Like the other reviewers, I took a chance on ordering this product. I went ahead, especially since it was about seven bux cheaper than the TRU exclusive track pack. This track pack is only straight and curve pieces -- no T-connector or cross track piece like the TRU exclusive.
It contains: medium curve x4, short curve x4, "longer" long straight x2, long straight x2 (has scenery like the "medium curve" piece), "shorter" long straight x2, "longer" short straight x2, short straight x2, F-F short straight x2, M-M short straight x2.
We like the Take-n-Play track better than the TrackMaster. The TrackMaster pieces only lasted about two days for us before trains would get snagged traveling onto certain pieces. The track spacing on the Take-n-Place is also somewhat compatible with the wooden trains we have, which is a bonus.
The only thing that would be better at this price, would be some actually "scenery" items, like trees or such to insert into the slots in...
needed addition to thomas take-n-play sets
there is nothing particularly special about this product, rather it does exactly what we needed it to. it combines all of our take-n-play structures together to create a little train city. the price from amazon was about half the price of the local big box stores. if you have more than one take-n-play structure, this is a product you are probably going to need.
