Fizzling fireboxes! Outstanding job on your recap video about your experience at Day Out with Thomas! We're so happy you had an amazing time! We've added your video to our #FanFriday playlist!
Well bust my buffers what a special day I love the Island of sodor But it is a great adventure to join u in ur town for a day out with thomas! I’m really excited to be with all my friends I hope ur all having as much fun as I am today!
My only Day Out with Thomas event was when TATMR was released. It was really cool to see Thomas and Lady pulling the train, even though it was just a new engine taking the place of Puffing Billy, the steam train in Belgrave, Victoria, Australia I would have loved to have been there, it looked amazing!
Yeah, it honestly isn’t. Denver & Rio Grande Western 491 was originally built as a standard gauge 2-8-0 “Consolidation” by Baldwin Locomotive Works in 1902, then in 1930 it was converted into a narrow gauge K-37 class 2-8-2 “Mikado”.
I went to a Day Out with Thomas event in the Isle of Wight in 2008. (I was 8 years old and still loved Thomas, cause of my autism) I don't remember it very well. I remember going on the Thomas Train Ride, and they did have a play area, which is where I was mostly. I think they should add the amatronic CGI face on the Thomas replicas in the UK.
This museum will always hold a special place in my heart because I was lucky enough not only to attend 2 of these events when I was younger, but also because I had my 5th or 6th birthday party in one of the museum's cabooses (which my parents had reserved for the day)
that balloon flying at 7:05 reminds me of a quote by former Thomas narrator George Carlin about how in heaven there is a special room for balloons that fly away.
Wow Keekre! Truly Remarkable Experience! Really enjoyed this documentary so to speak... I took my sons to the Day out With Thomas event many years back. Sad to say Thomas didn't have that newly seen CGI face - as I was greeted to the same Ugly looking monster **Thomas** of old! I totally agree with your comment about "This being a great place to sell the specialty store merchandise", as Mattel is really missing out on a great opportunity! This was a really nice video! Totally unexpected! Keep up the incredible work as always!
Thank you! Yes, you're absolutely right. I realized that mistake after I had finished the voiceover but forgot to put an annotation in the video. Thanks for letting me know!
I'm not near the Colorado Railroad Museum because I live in Australia and when I went to a DOWT event, I also saw Henry, Toby and Donald along with Thomas. Most UK railways have more characters than just Thomas. (e.g. Percy, Toby, Daisy, Diesel, Mavis, Henry, Donald, Douglas, James)
I haven't been to one of these in a long while! Cool to see how things have changed. This was very well done and professional-looking. Kudos! Also, you got to do WHAT with a turntable? I want to hear this story!
There was a employee of the museum who was demonstrating how they operate the turntable and she asked me if I wanted to give it a try. It was pretty hard to move, that's for sure! ;)
im going to the one in Cali this year! its gonna be the second ever time i go to one of these events. kinda sad thomas doesn’t have his CGI series voiceanymore…
when day out with Thomas came out on tracks for the first time i decided to go because "eh, why not..getting nostalgia going again" so i went there and walked around for a bit and they're was a showing of the toys, when i overheard the guy talking and seeing the sets and the first thing going though my mind is"oh god, i have those original metal thomas train sets" i fastly walked away and got on the ride, (this is when Thomas had the "clay face") it was nice i guess, every thomas fan of the "old era" was having a fangirl moment when he started moving so that was funny to watch.. as the years rolled by i saw improvements and more kids showing up at these events, every so often i would see more of the "old era" fans show up so at-least i know that the love for trains still live on~
I went back in 2005 and it was amazing. This brings back some memory's. You should go to the one in Strasburg,PA it has a amazing train museums where you can go inside the trains and go in some old stream locomotives
It might’ve been too far away for him to get to. I could be wrong, but it would still be a good idea because in their gift shops instead of just all Wooden Railway stuff that was made by Mattel, there’s a few Learning Curve and Tomy products there. I know that because I was there last year and many years before that.
Me too! It was less fun than the 2016 Day Out With Thomas, which I had a BLAST at messing around with TrackMaster, I had even gotten an exclusive Wooden Railway Day Out With Thomas 2016 passenger car and it's part of my Thomas & Friends Wooden Railway collection
Great video. I remember going to a DOWT event back in the early 2000s and the face back then was weird. Kinda would like to go to another event in the future.
I've always wanted to go to Colorado, but thanks to recent videos like your's, I am more and more wanting to go to Golden. I was impressed at how well you explained 491. I haven't been to DOWT at Tweetsie since 2009, so i haven't seen the new faces up close. They definitely should think of selling the specialty sets and other exclusives at these events or even at Thomas Land in Edaville.
Colorado is a very beautiful place if I may say so myself. I'm not a train person so all of the information about 491 in this video came from a very nice conductor. He told me almost everything about the locomotive during the train ride. It was a great experience to say the least! :)
That is a completely easy way to get train info. It's how I got so much info about the Dollywood and Tweetsie engines. Actually, 491's twin, 497, could be fired back up sometime at the Cumbres and Toltec in Antonito, and the Durango and Silverton line has a great number of D&RGW engines. I hope to visit these three and a railway with a similar engine to a certain "Mountain Engine"
1:32 That's not the Large Scale Bachmann Thomas. It's a Lionel Thomas from what I can tell. And Annie and Clarabel are also Lionel. I remember when I was young I went to a Day out with Thomas a couple of times in Strasburg, PA back when Thomas had the old face. It was actually nice from what I remember. The shop had the old Tomy stuff and we bought some ertl trains online once from an website that I think was an official Thomas and Friends Website.
You're absolutely right about the Lionel Thomas. I realized that mistake after I had finished the voiceover for this video but forgot to edit in an annotation. Thanks for letting me know!
Out on the east coast we have a bunch of tourist steam railroads that are everywhere. One place that you might have heard of is the Strasburg Railroad. They actually made a real Steam Locomotive that was a tank engine into a Thomas the Tank Engine! Here is a video:ruclips.net/video/fc8LngsvxUc/видео.html
Thomas wooden railway I was going to be filming the day out with Thomas event's at 5 scenic railroad which is the roaring camp railroads, Virginia and truckee railroad, the Strasburg railroad, Florida railroad museum, and the Colorado railroad museum and did that film of the CRRM in golden, Colorado and well thank you for film the day out with Thomas event.
My first day out with Thomas was 2014 I was 10 and I worked there it was a fun experience and I had lots of fun, but I was kinda cheating cause I got free merchandise and rides, so it was AWSOME! But I did not get to turn the turntable. Also it's awesome that its all ages so older people can enjoy too :D
That's interesting how they don't hide the engine actually pulling the train. At the Day Out with Thomas where I am, the real engine was at the back of the train and Thomas was front and center. Also, we had real coaches, not those "cattle cars", get the reference? ;) Nice to see this branching out on your channel; really enjoying these new and different videos from you.
When I went to this event as a kid, the steam engine that was pushing Thomas was at the back of the train to give the effect of Thomas pulling it. They didn't do that this time around for some reason.
in england a day out with thomas consists of a full size working thomas that runes pulling 2 to 3 coaches on branch lines and heritage railways. thonas wooden railway if you visit the uk you should ride the west somerset railway which is currently the longest heryige railway in england at about 22 miles long and they have a day out with thomas event there as well.
I hate to be that guy but... the large scale Thomas is Lionel :P That aside, you got some really good footage here. There's a good chance I'll be going to Golden for their DOWT this year
I went to Strasburg's DOWT in 2007, and I swore he was the real thing, even though his shape is inaccurate. Heck, I have a recording of when he was going to the sheds and I yelled out "Thomas you forgot your coaches!" Because I thought he was going without them. I've seen him in the sheds a few times when I went to Strasburg, but I haven't been to a single DOWT since.
At least a steam engine is pushing Thomas for the sounds! I don't see why they couldn't take the narrow Gauge Thomas to the other Narrow gauge excursion lines in Colorado, other than licensing. The whistle is still unrealistic, though. I can't tell if his running board is white or blue at 6:57. i haven't seen Take N Plays for sale at DOWT since Mattel took over Take Along.
This is amazing, I remember when you used to be that kid that was playing in your room pushing the trains around with that "lovely" sound in the background . Now you have expanded enormously and that's awesome. Now I'm not saying I'm the "big hit" because I'm not (40 subscribers) but I'm just glad to see these videos. I remember you had your series, reviews, and the odd movie and remake. I'm so blown away now that you have these amazing videos, like Oliver's Eleven, Henry's Handcar Havoc BTS and now this! I have not been here since I was little when they still had the "non dummy" Thomas with the "face." This video brought back so many memories and I'm so glad you did this! Keep up the good work Keekre! (Stanley in Space! Hahaha!)
I think that was a Lionel Thomas, but I don't collect G scale so don't quote me on it. :P Anyway, it was cool to see footage of what these events are like now. I haven't been to one since I was less than 8. The Colorado Railroad Museum certainly seems like a neat place to visit, too. I'd imagine you had a very good time. (Also, is this the first video we've gotten from you that doesn't show your layout or collection?)
Fizzling fireboxes! Outstanding job on your recap video about your experience at Day Out with Thomas! We're so happy you had an amazing time! We've added your video to our #FanFriday playlist!
Thank you very much! :)
5:03 IT'S HAVING A JEALOUSY FIT!
Thomas & Friends
Thomas & Friends if you made Thomas land you got Annie and Clarabel (sos for mistake) the wrong way round so yeah
ThomasWoodenRailway rfggyytfgvde
Well bust my buffers what a special day I love the Island of sodor But it is a great adventure to join u in ur town for a day out with thomas! I’m really excited to be with all my friends I hope ur all having as much fun as I am today!
The g scale Thomas model is the Lionel one from the 90's and the Percy model is bachmann which was released in 2010
LEGO Master We already kno
Reminds me fondly of my Day Out With Thomas experiences back in the day! Glad to see the current events still embody the spirit I remember so well.
Whoa! 5:06 Wheel slip!
slip slip slip slip grip grip puff puff chuff
My only Day Out with Thomas event was when TATMR was released. It was really cool to see Thomas and Lady pulling the train, even though it was just a new engine taking the place of Puffing Billy, the steam train in Belgrave, Victoria, Australia
I would have loved to have been there, it looked amazing!
Day out with Thomas is one of my favorite places I went to as a kid.
Locomotive 491 seems to be struggling a bit pushing Thomas.
lol no it’s struggling to pull the train the Thomas the train is little
Yeah, it honestly isn’t. Denver & Rio Grande Western 491 was originally built as a standard gauge 2-8-0 “Consolidation” by Baldwin Locomotive Works in 1902, then in 1930 it was converted into a narrow gauge K-37 class 2-8-2 “Mikado”.
I'm glad these full scale Thomas's are converted to CGI and talk.
Me too
I remember going to one of those events at Old Sacramento, back in 2002.
This event is also very famous at the Strasburg Railroad in Pennsylvania. They have a Thomas that runs under steam! And a full scale Percy!
You make great stories with Thomas Wooden Railway merchandise. I collect take n play.
I went to a Day Out with Thomas event in the Isle of Wight in 2008. (I was 8 years old and still loved Thomas, cause of my autism) I don't remember it very well. I remember going on the Thomas Train Ride, and they did have a play area, which is where I was mostly. I think they should add the amatronic CGI face on the Thomas replicas in the UK.
7:10, The next "Stanley in Space" XD
Very nice! Thomas and that D&RGW loco looked great pulling the train.
I've been to four DOWT's in my life. The Last 2 I went to had Percy as well! One of the Thomas engines is actually steam powered.
*****
I've seen him twice.
+Jake Videos 1 Also they've had Percy since 2014.
When I was a kid, they had the non-cgi face for the event
Connor O'Brien Too creepy
Way too creepy
Plus, at my first Day Out With Thomas event at the Florida railroad, and guess what....
The event had the creepy model face!!!!!!!
The cig faces look better for the characters. Moving mouths and eyes, how do they do that?
LeafyNitemare What if they made a mechanism that allows Thomas to wink and blink?
This museum will always hold a special place in my heart because I was lucky enough not only to attend 2 of these events when I was younger, but also because I had my 5th or 6th birthday party in one of the museum's cabooses (which my parents had reserved for the day)
Very nice! They were advertising the birthday cabooses all over the place while I was there. :)
To Me, I actually love the older face. It definitely captures Thomas' Personality and how he is sometimes a cheek.
They got Annie and clareabel backwards in the model Thomas
We alredy knu
I call that an Easter egg and a GOOF!!!!!!
I remember the old face on Thomas I go every year
that balloon flying at 7:05 reminds me of a quote by former Thomas narrator George Carlin about how in heaven there is a special room for balloons that fly away.
Wow Keekre! Truly Remarkable Experience! Really enjoyed this documentary so to speak... I took my sons to the Day out With Thomas event many years back.

Thank you very much Josh! :)
Great video! The G scale Thomas was a Lionel G scale Thomas from circa late 90s-early 2000s.
Thank you! Yes, you're absolutely right. I realized that mistake after I had finished the voiceover but forgot to put an annotation in the video. Thanks for letting me know!
+ThomasWoodenRailway Sure thing bruv.
I have gone to the Day Out with Thomas 16 years ago, on this day. June 16th, 2000
I'm not near the Colorado Railroad Museum because I live in Australia and when I went to a DOWT event, I also saw Henry, Toby and Donald along with Thomas. Most UK railways have more characters than just Thomas. (e.g. Percy, Toby, Daisy, Diesel, Mavis, Henry, Donald, Douglas, James)
You're right, the overseas railways go all out for Day Out With Thomas. ;)
Maybe they can start a Day Out with Thomas for classic Thomas fans of the old TV show.
I haven't been to one of these in a long while! Cool to see how things have changed. This was very well done and professional-looking. Kudos!
Also, you got to do WHAT with a turntable? I want to hear this story!
+MilkTankerMedia He got permission to rotate the turntable around.
There was a employee of the museum who was demonstrating how they operate the turntable and she asked me if I wanted to give it a try. It was pretty hard to move, that's for sure! ;)
@@ThomasWoodenRailway do you have 60th anniversery percy
@@ThomasWoodenRailway I hope Edward could be in one of the events.
im going to the one in Cali this year! its gonna be the second ever time i go to one of these events. kinda sad thomas doesn’t have his CGI series voiceanymore…
It would be cool if they actually got a E2 class tank engine and painted it to resemble Thomas so he could pull trains
All the E2 tank engines were scrapped in the 60s, none were saved from scrap☹
Yes. It's too bad. It's a shame they have to tack some ugly loco on behind Thomas. It should JUST be Thomas.
Let's find the E2 plans and change that
Caleb Wagler that engine is not ugly! Any steam locomotive is nice to look at!
Wooden Railway Edward and Caleb wager that train is cool
when day out with Thomas came out on tracks for the first time i decided to go because "eh, why not..getting nostalgia going again" so i went there and walked around for a bit and they're was a showing of the toys, when i overheard the guy talking and seeing the sets and the first thing going though my mind is"oh god, i have those original metal thomas train sets" i fastly walked away and got on the ride, (this is when Thomas had the "clay face") it was nice i guess, every thomas fan of the "old era" was having a fangirl moment when he started moving so that was funny to watch.. as the years rolled by i saw improvements and more kids showing up at these events, every so often i would see more of the "old era" fans show up so at-least i know that the love for trains still live on~
I went back in 2005 and it was amazing. This brings back some memory's. You should go to the one in Strasburg,PA it has a amazing train museums where you can go inside the trains and go in some old stream locomotives
I actually went here in Minnesota (where I live) I even brought my old Take along Thomas, It was GREAT
The only DOWT event I attended was in August of 2004. Since I live in Illinois, we didn't stay long since my parents were sweating their skin off.
if you want to see Thomas actually pulling a train you should have gone to Stasburg railway where Percy is there as well
ThomasWoodenFriends There's also the Delaware River Railroad but without Percy.
It might’ve been too far away for him to get to. I could be wrong, but it would still be a good idea because in their gift shops instead of just all Wooden Railway stuff that was made by Mattel, there’s a few Learning Curve and Tomy products there. I know that because I was there last year and many years before that.
I went to a Day Out With Thomas in 2011 and it was so fun
Me too! It was less fun than the 2016 Day Out With Thomas, which I had a BLAST at messing around with TrackMaster, I had even gotten an exclusive Wooden Railway Day Out With Thomas 2016 passenger car and it's part of my Thomas & Friends Wooden Railway collection
Do you think you will go to Thomas Land USA AKA Edaville Railroad
the g scale thomas is lionel, the percy is bachmann
Great video. I remember going to a DOWT event back in the early 2000s and the face back then was weird. Kinda would like to go to another event in the future.
The train that pushes Thomas makes Thomas sound like he’s doing it :)
The Rio Grande 491 is Pushing Him It Does sound like The Thomas is Chugginf
The real day out with Thomas that has a real working Thomas is at strasburg
Great job I really go day out with Thomas
Thanks!
The model thomas on the g scale layout is actually by Lionel and the percy was by Bachmann
I remember meeting Thomas and he was not CGI at all
5:01 to 5:11, that wheel slipping though. :P
That camera work was Keekre! The XA-10 is a thing of beauty. :)
Thanks Rob!
I've always wanted to go to Colorado, but thanks to recent videos like your's, I am more and more wanting to go to Golden. I was impressed at how well you explained 491.

I always wanted to go there! I'm a huge Thomas fan! Good thinking that it's coming to Flint, Michigan this August and I'm gonna go there.
Who wishes Thomas got the animatronic CGI face when _Hero of the Rails_ came out fifteen years ago?
The next Stanley in space lol I love that video
I saw the Avalanche Escape Set on the display too!
Didn't you notice? Thomas talks!
He does! Sounds like his Martin Sherman voice.
1:32 That's not the Large Scale Bachmann Thomas. It's a Lionel Thomas from what I can tell. And Annie and Clarabel are also Lionel.
I remember when I was young I went to a Day out with Thomas a couple of times in Strasburg, PA back when Thomas had the old face. It was actually nice from what I remember.

You're absolutely right about the Lionel Thomas. I realized that mistake after I had finished the voiceover for this video but forgot to edit in an annotation. Thanks for letting me know!
Very cool video! I always wondered what one of these DOWT events were like. This reminded me of when I went to entertrainment junction, good times!
Thanks! These DOWT events are awesome. :)
Great video Keekre! I think the balloon was trying to be like Action Duncan. XD
Action Duncan...awaaaayyy! :)
I could watch them all day long to 😄
I say never miss a good birthday present cuz I've been to this every year I've been alive

But I did not get to turn the turntable. Also it's awesome that its all ages so older people can enjoy too :D
That wheel slip though!
NO TAKE N PLAYS!! 😡😡 Anyway a great video on your thoughts on the Day out with Thomas event. 😁 I really enjoyed it!
the thomas used here is actually rented out from strasburg pennsylvania.
I'm attending the day out with thomas event at the Strasburg railroad in Pennsylvania on Saturday.
The Thomas model was actually a Lionel, though it has been modified, and the Percy is a bachman
What a great video. I wish I could have gone.
That model Thomas was not Bachman it is the g scale version from Lionel.
I did not know that was the face of Thomas in the oldin time until I found videos with that face
I remember going to a day out with thomas event in filmore California
Mini thomas has come for the ride 😍
That's interesting how they don't hide the engine actually pulling the train. At the Day Out with Thomas where I am, the real engine was at the back of the train and Thomas was front and center. Also, we had real coaches, not those "cattle cars", get the reference? ;) Nice to see this branching out on your channel; really enjoying these new and different videos from you.
When I went to this event as a kid, the steam engine that was pushing Thomas was at the back of the train to give the effect of Thomas pulling it. They didn't do that this time around for some reason.
Anyone who likes the older Thomas face say “Aye” anyone who likes the newer one say, “Deigh”
the one I went to last year had a break malfunction and they also used diesel railcars as passengers as well
I've been to a day out with Thomas in Pennsylvania couple times!
in england a day out with thomas consists of a full size working thomas that runes pulling 2 to 3 coaches on branch lines and heritage railways. thonas wooden railway if you visit the uk you should ride the west somerset railway which is currently the longest heryige railway in england at about 22 miles long and they have a day out with thomas event there as well.
8 1/2 inches is stadard gauge in england.
+clare charlton About 1435 milimeters
I grow up with the old Thomas and he moved him self but his was a long time ago
I hate to be that guy but... the large scale Thomas is Lionel :P
That aside, you got some really good footage here. There's a good chance I'll be going to Golden for their DOWT this year
ikr as soon as he said bachmann I was like 😑
There's an annotation on the video correcting the mistake. I don't know why people aren't seeing that.
ThomasWoodenRailway I watched it on mobile. Annotations don't show up on there, so I guess that's it
The G scale thomas is from Lionel and not bachmann and, came out around early 1980s to early 2000s.
I went to Strasburg's DOWT in 2007, and I swore he was the real thing, even though his shape is inaccurate. Heck, I have a recording of when he was going to the sheds and I yelled out "Thomas you forgot your coaches!" Because I thought he was going without them. I've seen him in the sheds a few times when I went to Strasburg, but I haven't been to a single DOWT since.
I do believe Strasburg's Thomas, though a modified American loco, is a functioning locomotive.
+Marcus Katich it is. Modified from Brooklyn eastern district terminal #15 from 1997-98.
You are correct.
At least a steam engine is pushing Thomas for the sounds! I don't see why they couldn't take the narrow Gauge Thomas to the other Narrow gauge excursion lines in Colorado, other than licensing. The whistle is still unrealistic, though. I can't tell if his running board is white or blue at 6:57. i haven't seen Take N Plays for sale at DOWT since Mattel took over Take Along.
I was there and there was thunder, lightning, heavy rain, and Terental Winds. It was not so fun for me! Heck That Day!
And BTW, It happened in 2009 and I was not very happy!
Tanner says cool and asks are you gonna but the rumble and race mountain set?
This is amazing, I remember when you used to be that kid that was playing in your room pushing the trains around with that "lovely" sound in the background . Now you have expanded enormously and that's awesome. Now I'm not saying I'm the "big hit" because I'm not (40 subscribers) but I'm just glad to see these videos. I remember you had your series, reviews, and the odd movie and remake. I'm so blown away now that you have these amazing videos, like Oliver's Eleven, Henry's Handcar Havoc BTS and now this! I have not been here since I was little when they still had the "non dummy" Thomas with the "face." This video brought back so many memories and I'm so glad you did this! Keep up the good work Keekre!
(Stanley in Space! Hahaha!)
Thanks for your support! I greatly appreciate it! :)
+ThomasWoodenRailway Your welcome Keekre!
You are awsome one of the best users in the TWRC.
Thanks! :)
+ThomasWoodenRailway my pleasure i always enjoy watching your vids.
And the Shay locomotives in the back are amazing. The thomas model is from lionel not bachmann
4:00 so you're telling me.... THAT'S A NARROW GAUGE ENGINE???
You said that thomas overslept just like in thomas and gordon but also in the adventure begines and sodor’s legend of the lost treasure
Idk what Thomas model to use old style overhaul gen or the 3 rd gen cgi
the Rio Grande 491 was probably struggling pulling both thomas and the passengers at 5:10
And also the only close day out with Thomas for us is in green bay, I think you know were that is
I remember I went there when I was little
Memories
This was amazing! great job!
Thank you!
Now I gotta figure out if they'll have adventures and trackmaster because wood is so new and it's a big flop.
The large scale Bachman Thomas is actually the Lionel thomas
By 74 foot turntable, do you mean 37 foot radius or 148 foot diameter?
I really don't know. Judging by the video, I'm guessing it was a 37 foot radius (74 feet in total).
I think that was a Lionel Thomas, but I don't collect G scale so don't quote me on it. :P
Anyway, it was cool to see footage of what these events are like now. I haven't been to one since I was less than 8. The Colorado Railroad Museum certainly seems like a neat place to visit, too. I'd imagine you had a very good time.
(Also, is this the first video we've gotten from you that doesn't show your layout or collection?)
I can't think of another video I've uploaded that didn't somewhat take place in my room or basement. This was definitely a different one for sure! :)
ThomasWoodenRailway You did well for your first outdoors video!
They should make a powered coach to push thomas
I've seen a lot of the chug life
Biggie smells+Thomas=epic
