'King of the Railway' gains extended Vue cinema run

Vue in the United Kingdom are to screen the latest Thomas & Friends movie for longer than expected.

Rather than a sole weekend, the cinema chain will screen King of the Railway for 10 days from late August before ceasing its run a day before the film comes to DVD.

The Thomas & Friends UK facebook page confirmed the dates just before Vue's edit of the film's trailer was released on YouTube.

The new epic Thomas & Friends 'King of the Railway' movie screens across all UK VUE cinemas from Friday 23rd August - 1st September, followed by the DVD release on 2nd September! Peep! Peep!

Blue Mountain Mystery was granted a second weekend of screenings in 2012 after its first proved successful.

King of the Railway: The Movie premieres in Vue cinemas nationwide across the UK from August 23rd to September 1st, with its DVD to follow a day after on September 2nd.
