Thomas the Tank Engine 2

Thomas the Tank Engine 2, also titled Thomas's Big Race is an action videogame, developed by PeakStar Software for Alternative Software, and released for the Commodore Amiga, Atari ST and MS-DOS in 1993; as the name suggests, it is the follow-up to Thomas the Tank Engine and Friends, which had been released three years earlier on the Sinclair ZX Spectrum, Amstrad CPC and Commodore 64 but only in the previous year on the Amiga, Atari ST and DOS. As in the original game, Gordon and James are again missing their tenders (and numbers as a result) - and Bill and Ben also again look identical to each other (for they are missing their nameplates).

Story
"I'm a Really Useful Engine," said Thomas as he pulled into the sheds that morning. "Oh yes," puffed ''Gordon. But I bet'' you're not as fast as me!" The others overheard and laughed...  "Please stop arguing,"  the Fat Controller  butted in.  Everyone went quiet...  "I know," continued  the Fat Controller,  "We'll soon find out who's the fastest of you all!" "I will hold a racing competition and keep the times with my pocket watch." "Then we'll know who's the best..." Everybody cheered  loudly and began  revving their engines  in readiness for the  races...  © Britt Allcroft Limited 1993
