Inspired by Mattel’s Thomas & Friends franchise, Train Sim World 5: Thomas & Friends Visit the West Somerset Railway features fan-favorite characters like Thomas, Annie, Clarabel, Diesel and the Troublesome Trucks, brought to life on the West Somerset Railway. With accessible controls, the add-on offers an easy entry for newcomers to Train Sim World while providing an engaging, immersive experience for Thomas & Friends fans.
“Thomas' heartfelt message of friendship and teamwork resonates with consumers worldwide, and we’ve heard their demand for this add-on,” said Erika Winterholler, Head of Business Development, Digital Gaming at Mattel. “With both Mattel and Thomas & Friends celebrating their 80th anniversary, this partnership with Dovetail Games honors the brand’s lasting appeal and recognizes the loyal fans who grew up with Thomas. We can’t wait for everyone to jump on board for this new adventure!”
Rob O’Farrell, Chief Development Officer at Dovetail Games, added, “Like so many parents, I have spent many happy hours playing with the Thomas sets with my children, as well as watching them be captivated by the tales of the beloved Tank Engine, so I’m genuinely excited about working with Mattel to bring Thomas & Friends to Train Sim World .”
The Thomas & Friends brand is marking its 80th anniversary this year, tracing its heritage back to the publication of the first book in The Railway Series in 1945. Created by the Rev. W. Awdry for his son, Thomas the Tank Engine, along with his friends, have continued to captivate children and adults worldwide. Today, Thomas remains a cherished character, with fans able to follow his adventures with new toys, content, consumer products, digital and live experiences.
