Who would have thought back in 1984 that a small children's TV show about the adventures of transport on the railway of the fictional island of Sodor would last more than 30 years, win millions of fans around the world and turn into a huge entertainment industry - theme parks, annual holidays, toys, etc.

"Thomas and Friends" Today is considered a British cultural heritage, despite the fact that the history of the appearance of the children's series is in many ways a series of accidents. In the late 70s, television producer Britt Ellcroft was preparing material for documentary film about an old English railway. This road was mentioned in Wilbert Awdry's series of popular children's books "Railway Stories" - after reading one of them, Ellcroft was carried away by the others, and of her own accord she had the idea: why not make a children's TV show based on these stories? The first 50 thousand pounds she collected went only to buy the rights to film Railway Stories, for the next few years the producer was looking for money for the series itself.

In 1984, the first episode of Thomas & Friends was released on British TV. The show was made with the help of subject animation: toy trees, bridges, roads, buildings, artificial reservoirs. Remote control toy trains were used for the characters, the faces of the trains were removable and changed in accordance with the mood of the characters. The text behind the scenes already in the first season was read by a guest star - Ringo Starr. In the future, it became a tradition: storytellers in different years were George Carlin, Alec Baldwin and Pierce Brosnan.

In 2009, the way Thomas and Friends was made changed drastically, moving away from action figures in favor of cheaper and easier-to-handle computer animation.

"Thomas and Friends" has been on the air for 18 seasons - that's almost half a thousand episodes. New season will hit the screens this summer. Over the years of its existence, the show has acquired its own mythology and went beyond the television format. These are theme parks in the UK and Japan that receive millions of visitors every year. This is a lot of individual attractions around the world. And of course - toys: railways from the series (there are several of them) and characters - trains, airplanes and other cars, little men.

The number of toy trains sold over the years of the show's existence is more than 16 million. You can also buy them in Ukraine. These are the Collectible Metal Series, the Motorized Plastic Series, and the special series for children over one year old, in which the trains are made with funny special effects. In addition to the toy trains, the series also includes sets of railroads - with various traffic switches, tunnels and other elements that replicate the roads of Sodor.

The popularity of the series "Thomas and Friends" in the 80s went beyond the UK - it began to be shown in the USA, Japan and further around the world. On Ukrainian TV, this animated series was broadcast in the mid-90s - from the first episodes. And now Ukrainian viewers can watch “Thomas and Friends” daily - on the Plus Plus channel at 10:55.

Simple, at first glance, the idea of ​​​​an animated series - locomotives with human face, the routine on the railway - in fact, contains many didactic messages not only for children, but also for adults. Sodor is the image of any community where there are good and bad, where newcomers have to adapt, where problems must be solved together. Each character - be it a locomotive, wagon or other vehicle - has its own character and memorable appearance. In total, there were about 90 characters in the animated series, more than 30 of which are presented in new collection toy trains of the collection series. Among all actors there are ten main ones at the moment.

10 main characters of the animated series "Thomas and his friends"

Blue locomotive number 1, the pride and leader of the engines of the North Western Railway of the Island of Sodor. Gets into awkward situations because of his temper and impatience, but quickly moves away. Main character cartoon series and books "Railway stories", however, he was not in the very first story of Wilbert Awdry. Toy Thomas is the most popular model among all the characters in the animated series.

Percy

Cheerful and slightly clumsy locomotive. Percy holds the record for the most accidents in the entire animated series. Appearance This little engine forced the author of "Railway Stories" Wilbert Awdry to argue heatedly with the illustrator. The writer insisted that Percy look more like a real locomotive, and not "a green caterpillar with red stripes." Last phrase later ended up in the animated series when Thomas played a joke on Percy.

The red engine is number 5. Versatile on the railroad, James gets into trouble because of his overconfidence. He loves to show off his bright color.

The green steam locomotive is number 3. Its peculiarity is the love of nature. Driving through the forest, Henry can stay there for a long time, forgetting about business. But Henry does not only contemplate nature: if the trees are damaged by a storm, he will be the first to come to restore the planting.

The fastest, largest and most powerful engine of the entire company of Thomas. But Gordon does not boast of his size - he is kind-hearted and will always defend the smaller engines.

Cheerful cargo steam locomotive from the Foggy Island. Together with comrades Bash and Dash, he transports minerals and materials. Ferdinand specializes in wood and oil. In the animated series, this engine appears from episode to episode, but always comes to the fore.

The private powerhouse of the Earl and Countess of Boxford, Spencer has manners, but he likes to turn up his nose, which usually ends in his disadvantage. Too proud to be friends with ordinary engines, Spencer also always enters into a rivalry with Thomas.

An old-fashioned steam tram in appearance and character. The design for Toby was borrowed from a car that was used on the roads until the 1920s. He is one of the few characters who has his own song in the animated series.

The only girl-engine in the team of the North-Western Railway. Emily is a hand-drawn green and gold model of a real Stirling Single locomotive from the late 19th century. Interestingly, in the English-language animated series, Emily speaks with a slight Scottish accent.

A master of causing trouble on the island of Sodor. Working for diesel fuel, he dislikes all engines - of course, Thomas and his friends, in the first place. Leader among other diesel trains, this character incites everyone against everyone. It is because of Diesel 10 that most accidents occur in Sodor. Despite the nasty nature, the toy Diesel 10 is no less popular with children than Thomas.

About the cartoon "The Engines from Chuggington» (Chuggington)

Production: Ludorum plc, BBC

Number of seasons: 4 (in Russian, I managed to find only two, and then incomplete. If someone knows where the rest are translated, I will be grateful 😉);

Episodes per season: 30 episodes;

Series duration: 10 minutes;

Plot

In a fabulous Chuggington live cheerful and friendly trains. Every day they have a lot to do: a foundry, a sawmill, a quarry, an ice cream factory, a hotel, a farm, a safari park - everywhere you need to be in time, transport and pick up important goods.

The locomotives are very friendly, always ready to help, prompt and advise. Sometimes this comes in very handy. to trainee trainees Coco, Brewster and Wilson who are just starting their training in locomotive business.

Every day they face difficulties, learn from their mistakes, help and help each other.

What do you like the most

The cartoon is quite instructive: the trainees learn such common truths as: “go slower, you will continue”, “you need to obey your elders”, “you can’t arbitrarily leave without the permission of adults”, “there are dangerous places where it’s better not to go”, “you need help each other”, etc.

Very love the steam locomotives- they are very funny and funny, each with a detailed individualization, storyline, character and passions.

Disadvantage 🙂

The cartoon only has one downside: if your child likes it, get ready for the fact that you will inevitably have to buy toy trains (and, believe me, you won’t get off with one or two 🙂) And there are also various railways and tracks, depots and suitcases for storing trains ...

With the rails, we were able to “get out” and, but we didn’t “fight off” the trains - we are collecting a collection 🙂

The main characters of the cartoon about trains

In the course of the development of the cartoon, its main characters also develop, new ones appear. If in the first season we were familiar with a maximum of 10 engines, and the main attention was paid to 3 engine trainees Coco, Brewster and Wilson, then in the second season the characters are already under 20 and almost all the engines are actively involved in the development of the plot.

So, cartoon characters about trains:

  • Young trains Koko, Brewster and Wilson- the main characters of the cartoon. Children who learn and learn from their mistakes all the subtleties of life and communication;
  • Their wise teacher Donbar;
  • Old steam locomotive Pete- the oldest steam locomotive in the Chuggington depot, regularly working for the benefit of fabulous city for 150 years!
  • Alwyn— grandmother-locomotive, constantly cares about her appearance and beauty 🙂
  • Locomotive Speedy McAllister- Pete's friend and a very wise engine;
  • The genius of making ice cream of all kinds - Frostini;
  • Zaffy- A very funny young train. Knows how to spin around its axis and constantly gets into some trouble;
  • An electric train that carries passengers Emary(Noteworthy is the fact that for some reason Emery has multi-colored eyes like Woland 🙂 - one eye is blue, the other is green);
  • very funny twins Hut And Tutti- the youngest cartoon characters;
  • Harrison- strong and beautiful train;
  • Chazworth- Garrison's friend, a somewhat phlegmatic, but very aesthetic train;
  • super train- A superhero among trains. He knows how to fly and is engaged in the fact that he always comes to the rescue at the right moment. In his spare time, he acts in films 🙂
  • Callie - emergency tug, ready at any time to save and get rid of trouble;
  • Hodge - a small engine working in the workshop;
  • irvine- a locomotive responsible for cleanliness and order in Chuggington;
  • Mtambo— works as a guide in a safari park and tells children about outlandish animals;
