Thomas is Coming to Midland Railway and We Can't Wait!

Disclosure: In exchange for my post and to facilitate my honest review of this experience, I will receive tickets to the event for my family. No other compensation was received and all opinions expressed are my own.

Oh.my.goodness.  Thomas the Tank Engine is coming to the Midland Railway, which is a short drive from Kansas City.  If you told me about this a few years ago, I would have given you a blank stare, but these days I am pretty familiar with Thomas and his friends - and I have a little boy who is going to totally freak out with excitement when he sees this "CHOO-CHOO!" live and in person!

Here's the scoop:

I can't wait to see the look on Lincoln's face when he sees Thomas!  I also am having a great time imagining the meltdown when it is time to get OFF the train...oh dear.
