The Jet Engine car is from the Marvelous Machinery Special which aired this year as part of the 24th series. When it was shown on-screen it went at ridiculously fast speeds, so I'm hoping that they at least give Thomas a faster motor to coincide with the speed shown on-screen. But judging on how it's depicted from what's been shown, it's probably just a cheap cargo piece on a flatbed with no power source or gimmick. Which is disappointing considering we had something like T-24 Thomas and the Jet Engine with a flashing light Jet Engine only like 8-9 years ago.
This would be ideal however I feel like they won't do this and people will have to just modify Kenji to be battery operated, presumably using a chassis from TS-21 (Shooting Star Gordon) to reduce the amount of cutting + the loco speed. If you were to do this though I'd advise buying two then just because of how insane the prices go up after something's been discontinued for over a year if you still want a pullback Kenji.
