From the creator and writer of some of Britain's most popular children's television programmes.
This ordinarily extraordinary railway, in which the engine sings in the choir and there is a dragon in his firebox, was invented, or perhaps discovered, by Oliver Postgate and Peter Firmin over 50 years ago. It has delighted children and adults for more that three generations. Originally made in black and white, the stories and some new ones were filmed again in colour in the 1970’s, but are still animated by a simple direct method that gave the series its original charm.
