Referring to his earlier inquiry about Percy. He was trying to explain that he meant to ask if there were any LS Percy videos on YouTube.

Is it possible to fit a 4 inch tall figure in Thomas and Percy?

Next thing I'd do would be put some seats and people in the coaches and a driver an fireman in Thomas' cab. Is he big enough to put a 3 1/2" action figure in the cab?
Sadly, no. His cab interior is only about 1 1/2 high from floor to roof  :-\

Unfortunately, no.

Thats improbable! 4 inches tall is close to G scale, not 1 and 1/2 inches

Well, I'm not a real LS modeller and this is my first LS train. So, depending on the question, I may not be able to answer. Anyway, referring back to the quote: Like I said, I'm no LS modeller, so I don't find it improbable. But I can tell you that the floor of the cab is not down to the running board. This, of course, is the reason a 4 inch figure will not fit. But the measurement of the cab from running board to roof is 3 inches ,but, just to be safe, I would not tamper with the cab because I'm pretty sure that the motor is directly under the cab. I don't think it's worth having a lil' figure in the cab of my train if it meant ruining an absolutely gorgeous Thomas model.

I have the Thomas set too! It is legend!! ;D :D
Early in the morning,
Down at the station,
All the little engines
Standing in a row.
Along comes the driver,
Pulls the little lever
Puff, puff! Chuff, chuff!
Off we go!

These cabs can be modified but its a bit of a bash to do so, the inside has to be cut away and a new backhead placed.

Thomas as is

Percy after cutting out cab area, you can see how much high the plastic is
