HIT Entertainment has opened the doors on Europe’s first Thomas Land.

Set within a three-acre parkland, Thomas Land at Drayton Manor Theme Park features 12 themed rides, including a 600-meter Thomas train ride, an indoor play center, café and a Thomas retail shop.

The first Thomas Land was launched in 1998 when the Fujikyu Corp opened a themed area within the Fujikyu Highland amusement park in Japan. Thomas Land entertains more than 1.7 million guests each year.
