The link between the two has been the Magic Railroad but
that is now under threat from the bullying Diesel 10 and his
partners in crime Splatter and Dodge.
The usual protectors of the Magic Railroad are Mr Conductor
(Alec Baldwin) and his cousin but they are both losing their
sparkle and the magic dust that allows them to hop between
the two worlds.
Fortunately, a young girl called Lily (Mara Wilson) goes
to visit her grumpy Grandad (Peter Fonda) and strikes up a
strong friendship with Thomas and the gang.
Together they take on the nasty smelly diseasals and do their
best to save magic in the world.
Thomas and the Magic Railroad can be a bit naff at times
- with Alec Baldwin not quite sure whether to ham it up all
the time or not - but overall is solid. Personally, the best
part is watching the nasty diesels in action.
The video transfer is very good and the sound is fine.
Good for kids, but adults may want to watch with magazine
in hand.
