this page shows the different engines released during the 80s and early 90s. these are the ones i grew up with, starting with the red diesel. this line is complete to the best of my knowledge.
original magnetic thomas and friends
there were 6 magnetic engines released. thomas came with annie and clarabel, percy came with 2 troublesome trucks and gordon, james, edward and henry came with their tenders. each loco came with a standard blue driver. the fat controller was also available with thomas and in a set.
rolling stock, loads and road vehicles
tomica world infra red remote control set
i bought this set on trademe for $185NZD. the seller has told me it works fine, so thats awesome. hoping to use this at the christmas layout, likely adding a third track so it wont interfere with the auto transfer station. then i can turn the controls over to kids and let them decide what the train will do. good fun!
i let the niece and nephews have a play. its very easy to control, but doesnt like the gentle hills the set came with, so i will run it on flat track only.
