Post by: portland-docks on March 11, 2014, 02:52:44 PM
iv just been having a thought...(dangerous i know! :dunce: ), but does anyone know what the layout of knapford station was in thomas the tank?

From memory I think platforms 3 and 4 are bays. The goods sidings are over to the platform 5 side of the station. Theres no platform 6, its just a through line. Signal box is away from the station but on the platform 1 side. Its still fresh in my mind as I read my 2 year old thomas at bed time.

Ill have a flick through some of the books and see what I can find

Hi

You could try watching channel 5 in the morning or record it as they have Thomas the Tank Engine on then,I think it's about 8.30,mind you there are some loco's I don't remember in the books,Like Hero a big Japanese engine and Caitlin a American Streamlined loco
