Full steam ahead … for the star of the TV show Thomas & Friends, who will be chugging along the city’s railroad tracks this summer. President of Ambassatours Grey Line, Dennis Campbell announced the news today, and he tells CHSJ news that the triad of natural attractions, hotels and railway system made the port city the prime location for Thomas the Tank Engine. He says that if the blue train gets the same reaction it’s received in other areas, we could be looking at a major boom in tourism.
Saint John is the only city on the east coast ever picked to host the family festival, Day Out With Thomas: The Go-Go Thomas Tour. Thomas will be here from August 9-11 and 16-18, for tickets, click here
