Great News folks. According to Cody Shepard of
The Patriot Ledger the groundbreaking has occurred in
Carver Massachusetts for Thomas Land. This famous park will spot light Thomas the Tank Engine and many characters from the Island of Sodor. Edaville is no stranger to Thomas because they have been hosting a
Day Out with Thomas in Masschusetts for a while. This new theme park, Thomas Land, will feature a roller coaster, drop tower, Ferris wheel and other rides with Thomas characters, including Toby, Cranky the Crane and Harold the Helicopter. It still will have the 20-minute train ride on a life-sized Thomas the Tank Engine as its main attraction. There will be some 14 rides based on the television show “Thomas & Friends.”
Edaville USA has been operating for nearly 70 years and was purchased by the current owner Jon Delli Priscoli. Together with HIT Entertainment, Mr. Priscoli is developing the kid-friendly park dedicated to Thomas the Tank Engine that was only available in Japan and the United Kingdom. Now the United States will be home to Thomas Land as well. Thomas Land USA will be ready for the early summer of 2015. Be sure to stop back for updates and Thomas Land tickets.
