Thomas BookSue Allan, Publishing Director for Brands and Licensing at Egmont Publishing, commented: “We decided that Thomas’s next journey should be to the big city as it felt fitting that he should do his part to celebrate the Queen’s 90th Birthday. While getting Thomas to London was simple, navigating him around the capital’s most iconic attractions was a challenge, particularly as many of them are not on the railway lines. We ended up treating him to a trip on a barge down the river Thames!”
