Product Description[]
1998 Tomica World box description[]
Thomas pulled out of Ffarquhar Station. There was much work to be done, and he was late already. "Come Along! Come Along!" he whistled to Annie and Clarabel. As he approached the big red piece, Thomas saw Bulgy the Double Decker Bus, miserable and bad-tempered as ever. "Pah! Railways are no good. Rip them up! Turn them into roads!" Bulgy scowled as he trundled under the railway bridge. "No good indeed - I'll show him" thought Thomas, and raced down the track into a tunnel. As Thomas finally pulled into the station, Bulgy was still struggling along a hill. "Peep! Peep!" whistled Thomas to Annie and Clarabel. "Bulgy thinks railways are no good, but our passengers have arrived quicker at this station than his!"

For Thomas and the rest of his Sodor friends being "Really Useful" is very important. Join Thomas, Annie, Clarabel and Bulgy as they travel over bridges, through tunnels and around curves and bends to get their passengers to their destination safely and on time. All you need is one "AA" and one "AAA" battery, and let your imagination take control. Hop on board for hours of Thomas & Friends excitement.
Motor Road and Rail box description[]
Lots of terrific action in this big fun road and rail set with Thomas and his faithful coaches Annie and Clarabel, and Bulgy the double-decker bus. Follow Thomas on his journey up and over the high bridge and down through the tunnel as Bulgy drives over the tunnel and down under the bridge. Make Thomas stop outside Ffarquhar station and flick the switch to send him off again.
