Thomas & Friends Exhibition
- Thread starter Harry
- Start date
Well, Lady is now in the display case at Drayton Manor. They likely put Lady's model on display at Drayton Manor for two things: There is a ride of her called Lady's Carousel, and for both the 20th anniversary of Calling All Engines and the 25th anniversary of Thomas and the Magic Railroad. Since Lady appears in the film as the magical steam engine of the Magic Railroad and appears in Thomas' dream, along with Rusty the narrow gauge diesel in Calling All Engines, and was one of the characters seen in Thomas and the Magic Railroad and Calling All Engines, along with Diesel 10, the evil diesel engine with the claw.

They really need to decide what they really want with the display as it never really worked since day 1.
Nethier has the main exhibition none of the trains never run
I think thats unfair. It did work on Day 1.
By day 3 however...
There was a major design flaw in the exhibition, the interactive element with the button press was just too flimsy for the kids that were going to press it. You needed either heavy duty buttons like you get with security doors or something which lights up to denote it has been pressed and not to press again.
It's a shame because they spent an awfully long time and a lot of effort to move it there. And it can really be an attraction, I am sure I mentioned before but when at its previosu location I used to take a book with me as the little lad would follow the trains around for hours.
Hi does anyone know whether the Thomas train exhibition is working? Do the trains run when buttons are pressed? I came in June and it wasn’t working, though I might try again?
Thank you for advice
Thank you for advice
Only Rosie
Thank you, do no they will mend the other trains?
I found this video of the layout, and it seems Edward has gone back to storage, and now a model of Gordon is on display.
This has really become a forgotten exhibition and unless you do ride Winston’s you wouldn’t know it was up there and I don’t think any of the buttons worked this year.
Still think it looks better here then it's old shack at the back
