The most iconic train of all time is making a pit stop in Kentucky this summer and you can be a part of it.

Thomas the Train has been around for about 80 years. The popular children’s character first appeared in the 1940s. Since then, there’s been a line of very successful books, a popular TV series, and lots of toys and merchandise. It's safe to say that he is the most famous train of all time. If you and or your children are fans of Thomas, you have a chance to not only see him in person but take a fun ride with Thomas this summer in Kentucky.
