It's Called Thomas de stoomlocomotief in here!

 

[Blebleman]

Yeah, somehow, recently it's popular in Japan. Freaked the crap right out of me when I saw him the first time in Tokyo, I was like "What the hell! I haven't seen that in years!"

Somehow. Japan is weird, you know?

 

[dualscreenman]

I remember seeing it on PBS when I was little.
This is... unreal.

 

[bullet007]

I remember watching the show when I was little. I thought it would be lost into TV history forever. Guess its still big in Japan. (Just watch, in a few years there will be a "Thomas the Tank Engine" anime series) XD

 

[Deekman]

I remember this series too, it was HUGE in Australia when I was little. Of course when you have a Beatle doing the narrator it would be.
