First seen in 1946 in a book by the Reverend Wilbert Awdry, Thomas the Tank Engine has been enduringly popular, with several TV series and movies bringing him to life.
Thomas & Friends Special: Journey Beyond Sodor takes the trains on an adventure to the mainland, where they learn that friendship is more important than being the number one train. Can Thomas and the new experimental engines save James and help bring him back to the Island of Sodor?
