My Thomas Story Library

My Thomas Story Library was a series of books published by Egmont in collaboration with HiT Entertainment. The stories featured in some books were loose adaptations of original Railway Series stories by the Rev. W. Awdry, as well as adaptations of television series episodes. A few of the books also adapted Railway Series stories that were skipped in the television series.

The books were illustrated by Robin Davies and Jerry Smith. Phil Jacobs, Creative Design and Railway Series illustrator Clive Spong have also worked on the illustrations.

The series ended in 2011 after a decrease in sales. It was replaced by the Thomas Story Time series in 2012. In 2014, a new revamped line resembling the Story Library was announced, the My First Railway Library. In 2015, some of the books were re-released with different titles. In 2016, the series was relaunched again under the title Engine Adventures.
