List of episodes

Thomas (the Tank Engine) & Friends is a children's television series about the engines and other characters working on the railways of the Island of Sodor, and is based on The Railway Series books written by the Reverend W. Awdry.

This article lists and details episodes from the eleventh series of this show, which was first broadcast in September 2007 and ended in September 2008. This series was narrated by Michael Angelis for the UK audiences, while Michael Brandon narrates the episodes for the US audiences.

Starting in this series, the theme song is sung by the kids from the "Thomas and Friends" suite.

Most episodes in this series have two titles: the original titles from the UK broadcasts are shown on top, while the American-adapted titles are shown underneath.

This was Christopher Skala's first series as executive producer.

For the US broadcasts, this was the last series to be distributed by Connecticut Public Television for the first few episodes. The rest and future series are distributed by WNET in New York City. This was also the last season to use resin faces for the models in closeup shots and the last to use human and animal figurines.

Production

Series 11 is the first in the Series to be filmed in high-definition television format. The broadcast version only included 20 episodes. It was also the last series to be filmed entirely with models and to utilize the resin faces in the close-up shots, as series 12 was a mix of CGI and models before the switch to fully CGI animated starting in series 13.
