What is Thomas about?
Thomas is a small tank engine who works hard shunting coaches at the big station on the Island of Sodor. Although he enjoys helping the other engines, Thomas dreams of having a branch line of his own. His cheeky behaviour sometimes causes trouble, especially when he encounters troublesome trucks, but Thomas is determined to prove that he can be really useful. With courage, persistence and a little help from his friends, he shows everyone that even a small engine can achieve big things.
