Drayton Manor Park

"It was summertime on the island of Sodor. Gordon pulled the passenger express. It was very busy. But Gordon loved the hustle and bustle."

2008 saw the arrival of the cheeky Thomas The Tank Engine and friends. For the first time in Europe, Thomas and friends have their very own home away from Sodor.

Thomas Land is set in 6,000 squared metres of beautiful parkland and boasts many attractions aimed at providing fun and laughter for everyone, young and old. Interact with your favourite characters, from the cheeky Thomas to the grumpy Gordon in this amazing multi-million pound attraction.

What Can You Expect?

Thomas Land offers twelve wonderful themed rides for the whole family to enjoy. You can go for a ride on the famous blue engine himself, take to the sky in Harold the Helicopter, or, If you are looking for wild adventure, hop onto the Troublesome Trucks Runaway Coaster.

As well as the rides, there is a spectacular indoor play area which allows mum and dad to rest for a moment while the kids let of steam. And then, of course, there is amazing Thomas Land shop which sells all sorts of branded merchandise that the whole family can enjoy.

Thomas Land opened on 15th March for the summer. Gates open at 9.30 in the morning and the park closes at 18.00. Book your trip to Thomas Land and Drayton Manor with Play and Stay.
