Lifesize Thomas the Tank Engine coming to West Yorkshire for special event

If you have little ones who love Thomas The Tank Engine then you’ll want to take them to see the legendary choo choo when he visits Yorkshire.

Adored across the globe, a lifesize Thomas is going to be the star attraction and the special event and you’ll be able to ride him.

Thomas and the Fat Controller are hosting a special event at Kirklees Light Railway this winter.

You will be able to take one long 25-minute ride behind Thomas to Shelley Station.

The fun is happening on Saturday, November 9 and Sunday, November 10.

As well as meeting Thomas, families can see other characters such as Mavis, Toby and, of course,  the Fat Controller.

There will also be plenty of other Thomas-themed activities to enjoy.

How to get tickets

On both days, the fun will run between 10am and 5pm.

Most tickets for this event are priced at £13 per adult and £11 per child - there are concession prices and family bundles too.

You can find out more and buy tickets here.
