My kids have been a fan of Thomas for years. We even got to take a ride of him a few years ago. They were thrilled with the fun DVD and all the great episodes, and the baby has been playing with the whistle since it arrived.  If you are a collector or just love the show, you will definitely want this DVD in your collection.
