What is Thomas and Gordon about?
Thomas is a cheeky little tank engine who works at the big station on Sodor. He enjoys teasing Gordon, the proud and powerful express engine, especially when Gordon is resting after a long journey. One morning, Thomas’s teasing goes too far, and Gordon decides to teach him a lesson. When Thomas is unexpectedly taken along with Gordon’s express, he soon discovers that pulling a fast, heavy train is much harder than it looks. Thomas returns wiser and more respectful.
