Silent Hill 2 Mod Adds Thomas the Tank Engine

As a seasoned gamer with decades of gaming under my belt, I must say the modding community never ceases to amaze me. From Skyrim’s dragons turned into Thomas the Tank Engine to Pyramid Head lurking in the shadows of Silent Hill, the creativity and humour these talented individuals bring to the table is nothing short of breathtaking.


One of the most famous Skyrim mods is Really Useful Dragons – a mod that perfectly encapsulates what happens when fans gain far too much power over a game. With it installed, the world-eater Alduin becomes Thomas the Tank Engine, among other immersive changes.

“Silent Hill 2 has another opportunity to terrify, even if you thought Pyramid Head was already frightening enough. The impact of the industrial era, with its repercussions, is coming for us all, and there’s no escaping it. Thomas is drawing near, and he cannot be halted.

As the mod prophecy once foretold, Thou shalt always put Thomas into moddable games

The mod page for Pyramid the Tank Engine is sparse, for horror thrives in low detail. Beyond a quick, single-line description of what the mod does, the above sentence is all you get before installing the train into your game. On the page, it’s bolded. Underlined. Inevitable.

This modification was developed by ZombieAli, a seasoned modder as evidenced by his profile on Nexus Mods. For those interested in exploring more of his creations, he has an array of Resident Evil mods available that can enhance your gameplay.

According to his description, it’s now a long-standing custom to place Thomas the Tank Engine in situations that are not typically within his jurisdiction.

In simple terms, modifying games knows no boundaries, and Skyrim’s modding community, both admired and criticized, stands as the epitome of this freedom. This new mod suggests that you don’t necessarily need to wait for years before you can enjoy tinkering with a game.

Modding is quick now. The speed has become something of a punchline in itself – how often have you seen headlines like “so soon after X game’s launch, someone’s already modded in Y”?

Getting started with modding might require some technical skills, but modders are incredibly inventive and there are numerous resources available for newcomers to help them get started. Even a basic modification like swapping models is one of the reasons why Thomas-themed mods have gained popularity – they’re straightforward and easy to implement.

Silent Hill or otherwise, there is little reason to fear modding. Unless you’re scared of Thomas’ face, it’s totally reasonable to be scared of that one.
