ThomasNATION Reviews - Brand New Track
June 07, 2025
Carly and Sandy are putting together a new stretch of track set to open the next day that Thomas and Percy want to go down, so they do once the ribbon gets blown away. And frankly...that's it.
You'd think that'd make the episode more mundane and slow. But actually, the episode's biggest benefit is in its simplicity. The story takes a more uncomplicated turn and as such, its pace is more laid back so it can focus on the new track itself. Okay, the new track itself isn't anything new, but the point of it is seeing it from Thomas and Percy's point of view, and this is where I think their portrayal as kids works. Every scene oozes a childlike whimsy from Thomas and Percyās exploring.
But overall, Brand New Track is pretty okay. While the plot isnāt anything new or exciting, resulting in a lame twist and a mid song, but the charm of its simplicity does elevate it a little to make it watchable. Is it a high priority watch? Definitely not, but there are worse ways to spend eight minutes, so Iām gonna give this a 3/5.
