This set includes both Thomas and Percy, both slight set face variants so that they can look over at one another.
Other than the faces, they are fairly standard early 2010s production examples, with these two both being manufactured in October 2012.
This set includes one of the Knapford Station base sections with four support beams and three roof sections. The stickers included in the set designate the two platforms as 1 and 2. The roof comes in A and B sections - two A sections with a grid pattern on one end and the B section with clear ends. This is different from the mid 2000s Knapford release and arguably looks better assembled but I think it was probably done because it was cheaper to just paint two sides instead of all six.
The set also includes a Thomas-y set variation of the Railroad Crossing with Sound. This is the only other accessory in the set.
The track in this set is a mix of 2000s and newer Thailand toolings, including the half straight rails without the large squared-off Tomy logo.
The set has several suggested layouts, multiple of which allow you to run both trains without worrying about them ever hitting... There is a pretty decent amount of rail in this set.
This was (and will almost certainly remain, especially with a later track set including a different style of Knapford destination) the last time this Knapford Station tooling was used... the accessory selection is a little lacking, and there are no cars or coaches, but its still probably one of the better CGI-era sets (lol).
