Hi, James-
I don't have a set here to measure. Maybe someone else can help.
Why do you want to know?
Have fun!

Hey Mr. the Bach-man,
Just bought the set I'm really anxious to see if I can fit it in the corner of my room. :)

Dear Mr. the Bach-man,
I just received my Large Scale Thomas in the mail today and I must say he is a fine running model.  However, I have noticed that the model starts at very low speeds like when I have the controller at 10.  I also have noticed at times that the model even runs when the controller is set to 0.  I was wondering if this was okay or if there really might be a problem.  Any help would really be appreciated. ;)

How is a model running at power level 0 normal?

Dear James,
It could be an issue with the speed control. If it becomes a problem we''ll replace it.
Have fun!

Dear Mr. the Bach-man,
I'll see about hooking the set up to another speed control tomarrow and see what happens.  I'll get back to you then. ;)

Dear Mr. the Bach-man,
I hooked up the Thomas set to a small controller that I got in the Thomas Holiday Special.  The set appeared to work find after this.  I believe you are right and that the old control has issues.  How do I go about getting this fixed?
