Thomas and the Magic Railroad 20th Anniversary Edition Blu-ray (Review & Giveaway)

 

For as long as anyone can remember, the magical Island of Sodor has been the realm of enchantment, innocence, and talking train engines. Mr. Conductor (Alec Baldwin) is taking care of the whole railway whilst Sir Topham Hatt is away.

Mr. C comes from a family of miniature Conductors who travel between the Island of Sodor and Shining Time Station thanks to a supply of mysterious gold dust. However, Sodor’s steam engines suddenly find themselves heading for a load of trouble courtesy of the railroad baddie Diesel 10, whose plan is to destroy our hero Thomas and Mr. C… then take over Sodor before Sir Topham Hatt’s return. Thomas and Mr. C must save the engines before his dwindling supply of gold dust runs out!

MY REVIEW

 In our house Thomas the Train has been a hit, this is the one show that my seven year old has been watching since he was just shy of a year old. We were very excited to get a chance to review, “Thomas and the Magic Railroad: 20th Anniversary Edition” on blu-ray. We got to ride the rails of adventure on Sodor Island. 

At first, I thought my son was going to be a bit hesitant because he usually watches the animation Thomas the Tank Engine. But I was wrong. He was so engaged and curious about what was going to happen next in the movie. He. Slight memories of my childhood came back to me and it was a great mommy and son moment for us while dad was away at work. 

A little about the Thomas and the Magic Railroad – Lily is on her way to see her Grandpa Burnett, but lily accidentally gets on the wrong train and ends up lost. (My son yelled get Thomas LOL). Lily meets the miniature Mr. Conductors; he shows her a magical railway where she meets the little steam engine named Thomas.  Lily teams up with Mr. Conductor and Thomas and sets out to get Sodor back to normal. 

We give Thomas and the Magic Railroad: 20th Anniversary Edition a 10 out of 10 or 5 stars 😊. An absolute great movie filled with excitement and adventure. For more information about Thomas and the Magic Railroad, be sure to head to Shout Factory.
