Synopsis

THOMAS AND ALL the other engines are working hard. At the end of a long day, Thomas discovers that the bridge that will bring him home has collapsed, so he decides to find a different route. He finds an old track that appears to have been unused for a long time. As the track is more and more overgrown, Thomas thinks he must be lost, until he pulls into a forgotten town that has been abandoned for 50 years.

About the Author:

In the early 1940s, a loving father crafted a small blue wooden engine for his son, Christopher. The stories that this father, Reverend W. Awdry, made up to accompany this wonderful toy were first published in 1945. He continued to create new adventures and characters until 1972, when he retired from writing. Reverend Awdry died in 1997 at the age of 85.
