List of episodes

Thomas (the Tank Engine) & Friends is a children's television series about the engines and other characters working on the railways of the Island of Sodor, and is based on The Railway Series books written by the Reverend W. Awdry.[1][2]

This article lists and details episodes from the eleventh series of this show, which was first broadcast in September 2007 and ended in January 2008. This series was narrated by Michael Angelis for the UK audiences, while Michael Brandon narrates the episodes for the US audiences.

Starting in this series, the theme song was sung by the children from the Thomas & Friends suite.[3]

Most episodes in this series have two titles: the original titles from the UK broadcasts are shown on top, while the American-adapted titles are shown underneath.

This was Christopher Skala's first series as executive producer.

For the US broadcasts, this was the last series to be distributed by Connecticut Public Television, which distributed the first few episodes. The rest of the episodes from this Series, and from future series, are distributed by WNET in New York City.

The original broadcast version only included 20 episodes; the rest were released on DVD (Engines and Escapades) and then were broadcast on TV months later.

Production

Series 11 was the first in the Series to be filmed in high-definition television format. It was also the last series to be filmed entirely with models and to utilize the resin faces in the closeup shots, as well as human figurines; Series 12 utilized a mix of CGI and models prior to the switch to full CGI animation in series 13.
