Thomas & Friends hosts festive pop-up at London King’s Cross

Thomas & Friends is hosting a free, two-day family pop-up event at London’s King’s Cross railway station on November 6 and 7. The event serves as the launch for a nationwide Christmas campaign in partnership with Save the Children, with Thomas the Tank Engine serving as the Chief Delivery Officer for Christmas Jumper Day.

Families can participate in several themed activity stations, including The Platform, Play Station, Wool Station, and Jumper Station. Activities include storytelling, Christmas jumper crafts, train-themed play, and a photo opportunity with a life-size Thomas.

As part of the charitable initiative, Mattel will donate 5,000 toys to Save the Children’s UK programs and baby banks, alongside donations of up to £40,000 for Christmas.
