Allow me to explain why me and a lot of other people like Thomas.

I remember watching the show when I was 2 years old, there was just something about this little blue train and his friends which made me so intrigued. Seasons 1-7 were the best years of the show, the characters were great, this setting looked so realistic and the stories were entertaining and engaging.

And it got even better when it went CGI, seasons 17-20 were also some of the best years of the show, all these old characters started to return, the stories were nice and heartwarming.

So I ask of you people, do not see Thomas as just a meme, or some silly blue talking train, see him as a role model and what he really is inside: A really useful engine.
