Full Steam Ahead To The Island Of Sodor!

Thomas & Friends™: Explore the Rails! pulls into The Magic House for a limited-time adventure that brings the Island of Sodor to life.

Created by Minnesota Children’s Museum and inspired by the beloved Nick Jr. series, this interactive exhibit invites families to climb aboard for STEM-based learning through imaginative play. Explore iconic destinations like Knapford Station and Sodor Steamworks, climb into Thomas’ cab to trigger train sounds, fix Percy’s wobbly wheel, and even suit up as a conductor to sell tickets. With engaging challenges that encourage problem-solving, creativity, and collaboration, this exhibit is packed with opportunities to build foundational science, technology, engineering, and math skills. Plus, enjoy a nostalgic retrospective featuring model engines, original drawings, and memorabilia from the Rev. W. Awdry’s timeless creation. Don’t miss your chance to be a “Really Useful Engine”
