‘Dear Christopher, here is your friend Thomas the Tank Engine. He wanted to come out of his station yard and see the world. These stories tell you how he did it’.

‘The Powerpuff Girls’ creator Craig McCracken has posted a touching tribute to Tom Kane along with an illustration of Professor Utonium and Mr. Harriman:
“I grew up without a dad, so it was important to me that the girls had the best one I could give them and that was Tom.”
A voice that followed me throughout my entire childhood. From giving me weekly reports on The Clone Wars, to making sure Foster's Home didnt fall apart, and of course, ensuring three tiny superheroes grew up right
Goodnight, Professor
RIP Tom Kane
1962-2026
I'm very sad to hear about the passing of Tom Kane. That man was one of the best in the voice acting industry. He suffered from a stroke in 2020 and then recently had a re reunion with The Powerpuff Girls. He left too soon.

@TankEngineTim John Hasler is the best UK voice of Thomas, Martin Sherman is the best US voice of Thomas. Their performances having the right balance of energetic and natural sounding without them coming as trying too hard to put on a childish-like voice for Thomas.
