Hero of the Rails is a 2009 CGI feature-length special and film spin-off of the TV series Thomas & Friends.

It was first released on September 8, 2009 on DVD and was released to iTunes on September 12, 2009. To promote the film a "Day Out With Thomas 2009: The Hero of the Rails Tour" was held at locations such as the Illinois Railway Museum, where guests could participate in activities such as arts and crafts or ride on a 15-ton replica of Thomas the Train. A mobile app, Thomas & Friends: Hero of the Rail, was released in May 2011.
