Good. We need housing. That place is prime time for Xmas anyways.

Frankly I had no idea they were open anytime other than Christmas

I had thought they had closed down and sold off years ago. Whelp better late than never I suppose.

You must be fun at parties…

If memory serves they were closed for a while. They sold a bunch of their rolling stock off (they were original Maine narrow-gauge cars and engines, some of which are now with historical preservation/recreation museums in Maine) and went in hard on Thomas the Tank Engine when that was actually a popular brand.

The writing was on the wall for the Thomas stuff. I’d bet monetizing unused land is a decision to help them raise capital to rebuild as a non-Thomas park.

You’ll never know, because you ain’t invited

Went there every summer for Thomas land. Never went there in for Christmas. I would've thought the Thomas land would've brought in more revenue. Surprised Christmas brings in 60-70% revenue.

They should develop a community and have a little train that goes around and brings people to the store!

Then, in MBTA style, it can fall off the tracks, break down, and start on fire sometimes to foster community spirit. :)

It’s only thomas though

Do the outlaws own it I heard a rumor

Redditors are like parrots repeating the same supposedly scathing insults over and over again. You must be fun at parties, tell you don’t understand X without telling me you don’t understand X. So lame.

The motorcycle club? Seems unlikely

Seems like it was a marketing issue. My kid lives and breathes Thomas but we had no clue about it.

How did this fit here, in your mind?

It's a free country nobody's memories can shackle someone to a losing venture.

Who cares. That place sucks!

Yes

I thought so too but I think it true

Close it down. That place sucked 20 years ago. Let it die
