    The Train Shed was an official Thomas & Friends based theme park in Luddenham, a suburb of Sydney, Australia. From 1996 to 2014, it operated a 7.25″ gauge miniature railway. — Thomas & Friends Wiki

    Their logo used the Balloon typeface, in red, enclosed in a cartouche.

    After 16 years, 250,000 visitors and a million train rides, Thomas choo-chooed out of the station at The Train Shed in Luddenham for the last time. — The Daily Telegraph, October 2014
