Motor Road and Rail

"Thomas Motor Road and Rail" is a battery-operated system manufactured by TOMY and compatible with other Tomica World sets. The engines run on special plastic blue and brown "tracks", and the roadway vehicles run on a special gray "road". "Thomas Motor Road and Rail" is not compatible with other brands of model railway, although the models in the range fit well on the Learning Curve Wooden track.

A large number of models have been released, including the majority of major and minor characters from the television series.

="TOMY Trains"= In 1992, TOMY announced a line of "Thomas and Friends" characters in their (now discontinued) "TOMY Trains" range. This trains were larger, had magnetic couplings and ran on dark blue tracks. The following locomotives were made in that year:
 * Thomas with Annie, Clarabel and Sir Topham Hatt
 * Percy with trucks

There were also two sets available:
 * Thomas's Day Out: Thomas, Annie, Clarabel with an oval of track
 * Thomas and Percy's Big Adventure: Thomas, Percy, Annie, Clarabel and trucks with sheds and raised tracks

In 1994, TOMY released the following models, each with a tender and a driver:
 * Edward
 * James
 * Gordon
 * Henry

In 1996, the range was classed defunct and replaced with a new line, based upon the Plarail system already in use in Japan.

=Trackmaster= In 2007, HiT Toys picked up the contract for TOMY's "Thomas Motor Road and Rail" range.
