Day Out With Thomas Tickets

Day Out With Thomas tickets will treat you to an exciting family entertainment event that takes place at heritage stations with trains disguised as characters of the classic children television series called ‘Thomas the Tank Engine and Friends’.
 
Located in Peterborough, England, Nene Valley Railway was the first in the world to display a full-fledged replica of ‘Thomas’. The company who built this industrial tank engine nicknamed it ‘Thomas’ due to the uncanny resemblance it bared to the famous train character of the television series. However ‘Day Out With Thomas’ tourist events are traded under the original name of the show. The trademark is licensed by the HiT Entertainment and must not be confused with the tank engine constructed by the UK company.

However the trend of decorating trains like the TV series Thomas character can certainly be credited to the Nene Valley Railway.  Since then numerous tank engines across the world have been designed and painted to look like Thomas. Some railways, particularly the Mid Hants Railway and Strasburg Rail have even gone to the extent of rebuilding trains in order to produce a better replica of Thomas. The growing interest of people, especially the children to view the Thomas lookalike train has led many more railways to create the replica. This in turn has provided profitable revenues to the railways who did not own a good enough engine of their own.

‘Day Out With Thomas’ is one of the most popular tourist attractions of every country that hosts the event. It not only allows the spectators to see the striking colorful train but also offers to take them on a cheery ride along with many of the friends (characters) of Thomas. The character of Sir Topham Hatt serves as the tour guide for the passengers. The children are entertained with interesting stories of Thomas during the ride. This keeps them constantly engaged and often they are seen asking questions which the character host ensures to satisfy. They particularly enjoy the interactive sessions of trying to mimic the honking sound of the engine. There are no age limitations to take this ride. Thomas ride is enjoyed by the young and old alike. However at times parents also choose to stay outside the train to cheer and wave at their children while they enjoy their trip with Thomas and Friends.  

Photographers are available at the venue throughout the day to capture the guests’ enjoyable and memorable times at the affair. Thomas is accessible for pictures before and after the departure of the ride. The prints of these pictures are available within a short time of time. However there are no restrictions or compulsions on carrying a camera or buying the pictures from the venue photographer.

Other than meeting Thomas and enjoying his ride along many of his friends, ‘Day Out With Thomas’ also offers plenty of other entertainment activities at its amusement park. A small scale car track consisting of hand-propelled cars is often designed to allow the children to fulfill their desire of driving their way around, like Thomas train. Besides the kids also look forward to the fascinating magic shows performed at the venue. The face painting stall is always seen flooded with large groups of children. Jumping Castle is also a great hit with the kids who enjoy bouncing free and safe while competing with each other to make the highest jump.

The event also presents Thomas film screenings which involve educational talks about train safety, parts and functions. Additionally a train model set up is designed and displayed showcasing a variety of trains in different colors and sizes on an artificial track. The creativity of young minds comes into play when they are provided the chance to construct their own small Lego train. A variety of delicious food items are also available at the event location. Thomas Gift Shop is also occupied by children as well as adults collecting Thomas themed toys, clothes, trains and other souvenirs.

Day Out With Thomas tickets will offer nearly every possible form of entertainment, from rides to videos, from stories to live interaction with the characters and much more. So save yourself a place at the event and enjoy a family day out with Thomas and Friends.
