5.0 out of 5 stars Sensational and Great!, September 28, 2004

Cumulonimbus Harpe "samsmylife" (Fresno, California, United States) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Thomas the Tank Engine & Friends - The Special Letter [VHS] (VHS Tape)

Thomas & the Special Letter was great. We got to see lots of the little engines including Skarloey, Reneas, Duncan, Rusty, Sir Handle and Peter Sam. Stories are great, they include:

Thomas & the special letter A: When Sir Topham Hatt gets a letter from a child who lives in the big city, all the engines are very excited about going to the big city. But could Thomas' accident cause him to miss out on the trip?

Rock 'N' Roll B: When Duncan gets stuck in the tunnel because of his rock 'n' roll, Skarloey, who hasn't met Duncan yet, must rescue him.

Home At Last B: All the Engines are looking forward to seeing Skarloey as he comes back from the works.

Steam Roller B: All the engines tease Sir Handle about his wheels but soon enough, Sir Handel gets a chance to show the other engines that his wheels are very special indeed.

Toad Stands By A: Toad and Oliver teach the freight cars a lesson they'll never forget.

Bowled out B: See how all the engines get rid of a smelly diesel.

Final Score: 8 out of 10

5.0 out of 5 stars Thomas and the Special Letter and Other Stories, September 15, 2001

A Kid's Review

This review is from: Thomas the Tank Engine & Friends - The Special Letter [VHS] (VHS Tape)

This is a great video! See what happens when Sir Handel tries to compare himself to George the steam roller, and Oliver and Toad teaching the freight cars a lesson. See if Duncan will ever like Rusty the diesel and stopping "Rock 'N Roll". See what happens when Thomas and his friends go to a big city, and what happens when a mean diesel comes when Stepney leaves the railway.

The story stops are: Thomas and the Special Letter; Home at Last; Rock 'N Roll; Steam Roller; Toad Stands By; Bowled Out; and the music video "Don't Judge a Book By its Cover".

Overall, this is a GREAT video. I know you'll like it.
