Confirmed: Season Fifteen after 'DOTD'

It has emerged that Season Fifteen won't come sooner in the Spring.

It has now been confirmed that the new Day of the Diesels special premiering later this year will take place before events coming up in the show's Fifteenth Season.

Previously, it was thought positively that the 2011 Season would appear later in the Spring, however the newest special is to come first then will lead into the next season.

Also, last year, Seasons Thirteen and Fourteen aired although the Thirteenth Season had actually been completed back in late 2009, but was pushed back.

Day of the Diesels will be released in select theatres and on DVD later this year, followed by the broadcast of the Fifteenth Season of Thomas & Friends.

Special thanks to Sif's Ryan for the confirmation and permission.
