Came across this elsewhere, and thought it might be of interest here:

Have at with the comments--and out of curiosity, what might you consider a possible approach to an American-themed counterpart?

Just for fun, someone did do something--but be forewarned, the ending is sad, very sad indeed:

for that you would have to contact HiT Entertainment. They are in charge of all things Thomas and Friends, not Bachmann. Bachmann only makes models of the characters. to add to that there is already a Hank and he's American, too! ;) He's based off of a PRR K4 Pacific. good idea though!

I don't think it'd be necessary. Thomas already has international appeal. ;)
