Shining Time Station

What else can be said about this show? It was educational, entertaining, and most of all classic. I LOVED this show when I was a toddler, and even if I saw it today, I would still be entertained and enlightened. The Thomas the Train segments were also inspirational. If only the childrens shows of today were like that!

The Shining Time Station is a great series for kids. It showcases what is good in the world of trains and teaching lessons that are good for them. Also, the show can be funny at times. But of course, what brings the show to be one of the best is the acting by George Carlin as Mr. Conductor (he received a Emmy nomination for it). Entertaining and enlightening throughout.

I used to watch this if I woke up early, but lost track of it. I have no idea why it is no longer on PBS. Also sad to see that 'Scheemer', Brian O'Connor died in 1994... Anyway the interaction of DeeDee, Billy and George Carlin as Mr Conductor, and the antics of Scheemer made this quite enjoyable. And the Thomas the Tank Engine sequences where quite good what with the elaborate miniature model work, all done with obvious love....

I used to watch this show when I was three years old. They have great acting. My old friend Loney has some videos of this show. I have not seen this show in a long time. I saw it back when it was on PBS. now it is on Fox Family. It is about a train that moves.

I loved watching Shining Time Station on PBS when I was really little. It is a shame that they eventually took it off of the air. It was educational, funny, and fun to watch. It taught kids, like me, about important lessons in life. I miss that show so much. I can still hear the theme song when I am in a quiet place and I think back to those good old days. I wish they would bring it back. It meant so much me and many, many others. I hope that someday soon they either bring it back on TV or they release the original episodes on VHS and DVD, the way they were shown on TV when they originally aired. Please, bring it back!
