Will Thomas, Annie & Clarabel REALLY handle 15" radius curves?

Harvey-

Once you have your trains running you can pick up a few details from the Thomas stories and do them with the models. For example, I got some tiny livestock so we could do "Cow on the Line" and I made a lighted Chinese Dragon for another story. My grandson loved doing the stories. And he'd modify some, exercising his creative abilities. It was great fun for him and from me, too.

Some folk in the Thomas forum do this and film/photograph their own stories. You tube seems to have tons of CGI and stop motion animation of homespun Thomas tales. I discovered Thomas (again actually, had some books) because one morning off work, many years ago, drinking coffee, listening to the tv, and building a model, after the news, I heard George Carlins voice, saw trains, and naturally began watching it I needed new brushes after

...I heard George Carlins voice...

I think they have drugs now that'll cure this.

Really the best thing about the Thomas Equipment, to me anyway, is that they are durable (all to important for children) I had one take a four foot fall to tile and come out unscathed!
