Editorial Review: In the first of three stories, big red engine James faces the consequences of a tantrum, finds himself getting teased, and makes a friend when he helps another engine in need. A frustrated James slams his coaches together and breaks their connection, forcing passengers to deboard until one rider reluctantly gives up his bootlace for the repair. James feels bad for letting the train line down and gets two chances to redeem himself in the following stories. Thomas conducts his own mischief when he makes a break for it without his conductor, goes fishing in the river thereby giving himself a "pain in his boiler," and teases Terence the Tractor for his "ugly wheels." Of course, Thomas has to eat his words and concede that "caterpillars are splendid" when he becomes snowbound and needs the tractor to dig him out. Finally, Thomas and Bertie have a trademark Thomas-style race, with their conductors' blessing and participation. --Kimberly Heinrichs

Rating: - A Must-have Thomas video!
This is Thomas' second video and it is one of the best ones. It introduced Bertie and Terrance and it also introduced James a little more than they did in Vol.1, in fact, the first three episodes are about James. Thats good news if your a James fan like me. The last four episodes are all about Thomas. Most of them are great stories to. The story stops are:
James Learns A Lesson 5/5:
When James bangs his coaches to much since he is mad because he thinks he should be the most important ... Read More
Rating: - boring
This video is pretty boring for the most part. Features the debuts of Terence and Bertie.
Rating: - A True Thomas the Tank Engine Classic!
The second, I believe, of American Thomas the Tank Engine & Friends videos. Featuring 7 season 1 episodes narrated by the show's first narrator: Ringo Starr, it is truely wonderful. The episodes are classics, well written, based on the stories by the Rev. W. Awdry who created the books the show originally was based on. The music is well done, and it has that 80's synthesizer sound to it. The scenery is well done too. James Learns a Lesson, A Proud Day for James, and Thomas Goes Fishing are fantastic ... Read More
Rating: - 2nd of the "Thomas and Friends" Collection
James Learns a Lesson is a wonderful 2nd video of its series. The first three stories are focused on James, and the other 4 of 7 are on Thomas. The story stops are as follows: James Learns a Lesson- James, the new engine, gets in trouble for spoiling Sir Topham Hatt's hat, and then makes a memorable bump in the coaches which had to be mended with one of the passenger's bootlaces! Foolish Freight Cars- James had been shut up for misbehaving in the previous story, and comes out and has trouble ... Read More
Rating: - An Essential Thomas Tape
Thomas would not be the same without this tape. It showed James as one of the engines and it showed him learning to be a really useful engine. In many other tapes it shows James though smaller than Gordon and Henry as a big engine. He helps Gordon and Henry when they make a point. James is also one of the most popular engines. It also shows the Great Race between Thomas and Bertie. That was one of the most well known events in Thomas history. Their race has been mentioned many times. This is a really good tape. ...
