I just found a Reddit post that is pretty interesting. The Reddit user who made this post remembered seeing an earlier, but unidentified Thomas the Tank Engine movie from an unknown year when he was a kid. He said it was similar to the 2000 movie Thomas and the Magic Railroad, and it was also a mixture of live-action and model animation . Here's this interesting Reddit post for some more information: https://www.reddit.com/r/answers/comments/51170m/does_anybody_remember_that_thomas_the_tank_engine/

Is there any more information of this early Thomas the Tank Engine film? I'm pretty interested in it.

It could be that or the Shining Time Station specials, which was a TV block that TMR was based off of.

I thought he saw the workprint of TATMR and thought it was an entirely different Thomas movie.

That's pretty cool. Looks like that Reddit user is not alone. If you remember, can you please tell me what is it about?

Reading the IMDB on the Magic Railroad Thomas movie it seems it's a possibility that we were part of the test audience as it states the movie was drastically changed because it was too scary for young audiences. I remember being extremely terrified watching this movie, like closing my eyes and almost crying😂
