Thomas the Tank Engine

Thomas the Tank Engine

If your child loves the ‘Really Useful Engine’, treat them to a day with Thomas this August. Between the 6th and 14th, Thomas the Tank Engine will be spending his days at Alresford Station, with Toad, Diesel, Henry and Daisy providing trips throughout the day. There’ll be free activities for children, bouncy castles and inflatables, and children’s entertainment, making this a great summer holiday activity. Can your child find Sir Topham Hatt?

Each child that attends this fantastic event will take home a ‘Thomas and Friends’ engineer’s certificate, and there’ll be an on-site gift shop selling even more souvenirs. Book accommodation in Hampshire, and treat your child to a fun day out on the Mid Hants Railway Watercress Line.
