Our family has been known to travel just to see Thomas the Tank Engine. We have not only been to the Day Out with Thomas event when it rolled through Cleveland, but also made a trip down to Cincinnati last year to spend some time with the great big blue steam engine.
The Day Out with Thomas events are perfect for kids of all ages, as well as both boys and girls. The festivities include more than just a train ride with Thomas at the helm, but also loads of kids activities and opportunities to chug along with their favorite brand.
If you are headed out to a local Day Out with Thomas event coming to your neighborhood, you should consider purchasing your tickets now at discount.
Visit the Day Out with Thomas page online, and use code FP2013 to receive $2 off the cost of each ticket.

Thomas always comes to The Henry Ford in Michigan (metro Detroit) for several weekends during the spring. This year, the dates are April 27-28, May 4-5, and May 11-12.
Here’s a link to The Henry Ford’s page for further info http://www.thehenryford.org/events/dayOutThomas.aspx
We happened to be out at Greenfield Village at the same time Thomas was a few years ago (actually, it was a great time for us to see the village and take photos as all of the crowds were around Thomas and it was uncrowded elsewhere in the park!) I took a few photos of Thomas as we wandered around the rest of the park and posted them here http://www.midwestguest.com/2009/06/photo-friday-3.html
@Dominique: Thanks for the tip. We actually have considered making the trek up to see Thomas at Greenfield Village a couple times, but always ended up visiting more closer.
The coupon code doesn’t work.
@Kristy: I just tried a bunch of different sample orders and all of them worked with the coupon. Maybe try again, or the code “might” not work if you are looking to buy last minute tickets.
Not trying to get tickets for Nashville that aren’t till end of August. And I tried it again with no luck, it still says $18 with the code accepted.
@Kristy: Interesting, as I could not get it to work with that event either. I suggest calling 1-866-777-8932 and seeing if they can handle the order for you over the phone since the offer does appear to still be valid for other cities.
Thanks, I appreciate your help. I will call and let you know if they accept it over the phone. I can’t wait to go and see my sons face when he gets to ride Thomas.
Hi, I tried the code for Nashville also and it didn’t work. Was wondering if you called and if they did apply it for you over the phone? Thanks!
They said that the tickets were already at the $2.00 off discount and they wouldn’t be discounted anymore.
Thanks Kristy for the awesome follow-up!
for the code use fp2013 no bold caps or caps, no cut and paste just type in lower case fp2013
Thank you, love the event, and the $2.00 helps. Thank you.
Thanks so much! Saved $8 for this weekend’s visit with my boys. We are very excited. Thanks again!
