So you no longer need your Thomas the Train gear anymore. No more Thomas toys, tracks, and clothes. Now what to do? The great thing about Thomas and Friends is that there are so many options to choose from when your little Thomas fan wants to be surrounded with items from the show. The bad things is that kids grow out of Thomas the Train very quickly. But finding a new home for all of that stuff can be a challenge.
There is so much money invested in the Thomas the Tank Engine merchandise, that you certainly don't want to just throw it in the trash. Probably the easiest thing to do would be to give the stuff away to a friend or family member that has a child that would enjoy the toys and clothes. But if you do not have anyone that needs these things, then I suppose selling the toys/clothes/games/etc. would be a viable option.
Craigslist and eBay are full of Thomas the Train gear. Craigslist can be a little easier because you can usually sell to someone local. eBay might require shipping and all that goes along with that. But if you're just looking for some cash, these places would be good places to start.
If you want something a little simpler, include all of your child's Thomas stuff in a garage sale. You won't get as much for it, but you can at least find a new home for everything and clear some clutter out of your house.
Finally, there are always places like churches and day cares that could use some toy donations. They would be happy to take your Thomas things off of your hands.
What about you? What have you done when poor Thomas was no longer needed in your home?
