I bought the Thomas & the Magic Railroad DVD to upgrade from Video. My eldest lad loved the film, but when we came across it earlier this year it was battered & skipping slightly, so we had decided that an upgrade was certainly needed for his younger brother. The dvd is Americanized, but full of fun for the whole family. Featuring Deisil 10 & pinchy, Lady, Thomas & his friends, along with Sir Topham Hat & Mr conductor this film certainly captures the young imagination. My lads have an 8 year age gap, but as they are both Thomas Fans, this really was a Superb Family film! This certainly was a brilliant upgrade, from a great seller. Would recommend to any Thomas Fan!
Bought for a bit of fun and a blast from the past...!

I bought this film having seen it for sale at the National Railway Museum's Thomas The Tank Engine Shop in York. My 4 year old son is Thomas mad and has many of the TV based DVD's and I thought at least another DVD would stop me having to watch the same ones over and over again. This film is unlike any other Thomas movie as it is an american bastardised version of the Thomas we know and love. Unlike the usual Thomas the Tank Engine programs, this one employs actors to voice every engine unlike the usual narative by Ringo or Michael Angelis. Once you get over the shock of this the film is generally all round family entertainment. My son was a little scared of Diesel 10 [but then again who isn't!]. I would recommend this for Thomas Mad children, however, the feature length "Calling All Engines" is more my cup of tea and takes less getting used to but then again I'm 31 and reviewing a film aimed at 4-8 year olds. Maybe I should get out more.Read full review
