The classic 1970s animated TV series is on track for the big screen with co-creator Oliver Postgate's son Daniel planning to make a live-action feature film about the friendly Welsh train.
As reported by The Daily Mirror newspaper, the flick will be made by Postgate's production company Quintet Pictures.
Daniel said: "Set in the hills and valleys of Wales, it will be gently humorous family fayre to take us all off to the charming and eccentric world of Jones the Steam, Dai Station, Mrs Porty, Mr Dinwiddy, Idris the Dragon and, of course, Ivor himself.
"Ivor is beloved by generations of children, so we are working to bring him back in a live-action format that will ensure he appeals to many more generations to come."
