The Thomas the Tank Engine Starter Set was a small oval set in the 1997 American Thomas Battery Operated Rail System. It was the only set in the range to not be based on an existing Plarail Thomas set. The set uses some holdover Tomy Train accessories like the fir tree and stoplight sign.

Other than the odd accessories, the Thomas, Annie and Clarabel and track are all standard circa-1997 production.
Annie and Clarabel and Thomas' face are all darker than earlier and later examples, with darker greys seen on domestic Plarail and export Thomas series train throughout the later 1990s.
