New Thomas & Friends: All Engines Go Season Debuting in March

Netflix has slated the premiere of season 27 of Mattel Television Studios’ Thomas & Friends: All Engines Go for March 7.

The upcoming season consists of 26 11-minute episodes, with the first half beginning to drop in March and the other half to follow in September. The second portion includes the franchise’s first-ever 60-minute holiday movie, Thomas & Friends: The Christmas Letter Express.

In season 27, Thomas and his friends celebrate the grand opening of a new bakery/café connecting farm-to-table routes and keep busy bringing ingredients and treats to festive tables.

The new season will be available March 7 on Netflix in the U.S., as well as many international markets, including Canada, Spain, South Africa, India and Singapore. The content will also debut later this year on Milkshake and Nick Jr. in the U.K., Cartoonito in Italy, Treehouse in Canada, Televisa in Mexico and SBT in Brazil.

In the Christmas special, Percy discovers a child’s letter to Santa Claus forgotten at the bottom of his mail cart on Christmas Eve. Determined to make things right, he tracks down Santa Claus himself, with the help of Thomas and his friends. It is written by Rick Suvalle and features three original holiday songs.

Thomas & Friends: All Engines Go is produced by Mattel Television Studios and Corus Entertainment’s Nelvana Studios. It features the voices of Kai Harris, Ava Ro, Charlie Zeltzer, Chuck Smith, Will Bhaneja, Glee Dango and Talia Evans.

As we continue to foster the spirit of friendship, teamwork and adventure, this season reaffirms the enduring legacy of Thomas & Friends, bringing joy to both young and old across the globe.”
