Wow, you never could have a railroad like this in real life, the number of accidents that happen on Sir Topham Hatt's railroad would be bringing in the Dept. of Transportation faster than Spencer against a race with Edward. Also I wonder where they have this kind of money to run a railroad especially on an island. Any railroad on an island would definitely be a small time affair with not this many engines that can obviously be done by autos and trucks. I haven't seen the island being swarmed with tourists or any large scale housing developments to support a population and income to run such a large railway. It's quite unrealistic.
But on another level, my kids love this show, it is good wholesome entertainment and gets the kids into trains.
