Chocolate Thomas the Tank Engine pulls into King's Cross station

A six-foot-tall, giant Thomas the Tank Engine made entirely of chocolate has arrived at King’s Cross station to celebrate Easter weekend.

The giant Thomas is made of more than 100kg of Belgian chocolate, with the sculpture itself weighing in at over 140kg.

Craftsmen and women from She Bakes and Plunge Productions in Sussex have used white, milk and dark chocolate to make Thomas and they say that the most difficult part of the work was getting Thomas’ face just right.

The company says that it was the biggest project the team have ever taken on.

The chocolate Thomas the Tank Engine will be at King's Cross until Monday.
