The father of all tank engines - Reverend Awdry

I recently came across this very rare footage of an interview with Reverend Wilbert Awdry - literally the father of Thomas the Tank Engine. The interview is from an old BBC documentary about a historic train journey of the Flying Scotsman from London to Edinburgh in 1962. Reverend Awdry was on that train and talks about how he came up with all the names for Thomas' friends. It's a must watch if your little one is into Thomas! Enjoy, Stefan |
