Friendships are tested and conflict abounds in this 58-minute Thomas & Friends movie. When fire breaks out in an old farm shed on the Island of Sodor, it leads to the arrival of two new engines, Belle and Flynn the fire engine. Sir Topham Hatt asks Thomas to show the two new engines around the island, and Percy ends up feeling alone and left out because his best friend Thomas doesn't seem to have any time left to spend with him. The diesels befriend Percy in his time of need, but it turns out that the devious engines are only taking advantage of Percy's discontent in order to get something they really want--the Steamworks. Will the battle over the Steamworks come down to a show of force between the steamies and the diesels, or is there some other way for all the engines to get what they want and need? Day of the Diesels explores what true friendship looks like and reaffirms the notion that only by working together and taking care of one another can Thomas and his fellow steam engines achieve their goal of being really useful, happy engines. (Ages 2 to 6) --Tami Horiuchi

Product Description

When a fire breaks out on the Island of Sodor, two new firefighting engines – Flynn and Belle – join Thomas and Percy to save the day! When Thomas starts spending all his time with Sodor’s newest heroes, Percy is left feeling alone. Diesel sees this and invites Percy to the Dieselworks, where Percy is made to feel special by none other than the master of mischief Diesel 10! But Percy doesn’t know that he is part of Diesel 10’s master plan to take over the Sodor Steamworks. Can Percy lead the Steam Team to reclaim the Steamworks or will the Diesels make it their new home? It’s full steam ahead to sure-fire excitement in this all-new movie from Thomas & Friends™!

5.0 out of 5 stars Lots of Thomas & Friends! November 3, 2010
Format:DVD
This box set is perfect for Thomas & Friends both old and new. My boys just recently got into Thomas so they haven't seen really any of the older episodes which this box set has discs ranging from 2001-2008. Each disc has episodes focusing on a certain character or just the best of! There are over 50 episodes total and each disc is between 40-60 minutes long. Luckily my boys aren't too picky yet and love all the engines equally, but for kids who are specific or especially families with two kids who like different engines, this would be a great set. The episodes are classic Thomas & Friends episodes and I love that there are so many episodes in one set! For just $24 on Amazon, that is like $.50 an episode that you can watch over and over again!

4.0 out of 5 stars A bit scary for the younger viewers September 10, 2011
By LEBOOT
Format:DVD|Amazon Verified Purchase
My son is 3 and normally loves the Thomas movies (Misty Island, Hero of the Rails), but this movie was a bit scary for him. I think it's Diesel 10 and his sparking claw that really scared him. I had to turn it off and try it again later. We eventually got through it, but he doesn't want to watch it again (unlike Misty Island and Hero of the Rails which we've seen a lot). The quality was really good, but it was a bit darker than the other movies. If you have a 2-3 year old, you may want to wait until their older.

1.0 out of 5 stars More like "Whining Percy and Bully Diesels" September 12, 2011
Format:DVD
I've only bought two of the newer computer generated Thomas DVDs, and while the animation is absolutely fantastic, with realistic train motion and details, this particular story left a lot to be desired.
This is NOT for kids 3 and under...it is simply too scary, the characters are too one sided (Percy is particularly annoying with his whining that nobody is paying attention to him) and the climax is a letdown.
There are really only 3 characters that get any lines...Diesel 10, Percy, and Thomas. The start of the DVD is like a long commercial for two new firefighting characters...a water spouting steam engine named Belle, and a fire truck that has both regular tires for the road and railroad wheels for riding on the tracks. That little story takes a good 20 minutes of the 55 minute running time, and there are no diesels to be seen while Percy whines that Thomas is too busy showing the new engine around the island. What a sucky baby.
My son and I were disappointed that our other favourite engines...Henry, Gordon, James etc. had mere cameo appearances as they raced by on other tracks. Edward was nowhere to be seen, Toby showed up in the final minutes to help the 'steamies' lead their gang-like rumble against the diesels who had taken over the steamworks. I've seen better story lines, and more character interaction in the 5 minute shorts of the original series than in this entire 'movie'. A real shame, as like I said, the animation is absolutely top notch.
This is not a story that kids will like. Make it a rental, or better yet, wait until your local library has it and borrow it for free.

My toddler loves this set. Old model train versions of stories. Not the CG version. Enough different stories that the adults aren't instantly sick of them.
