BLOWING ROCK, NC (WWAY) — Peep! Peep! Thomas the Tank Engine invites little engineers to go full steam ahead for a day of engaging activities and fun adventures at Day Out With Thomas: The Dream BIG! Tour 2022, presented by Mattel.

Thomas the Tank Engine and his friends will visit Tweetsie Railroad on June 10-13 and June 16-19.

“We’re thrilled to welcome back the Day Out With Thomas event at Tweetsie Railroad,” Cathy Robbins of Tweetsie Railroad said. “Thomas the Tank Engine brings so much energy and excitement to the park and offers a one-of-a-kind experience for kids of all ages.”
