As is tradition, one of the first mods for Hogwarts Legacy adds Thomas the Tank Engine. Created by Showie, the ThomasBroom mod turns the Moon Trimmer broomstick into the cheery blue locomotive, with your avatar visible in the driver's carriage. 

Per Showie this "has some issues with clipping and culling, but decided to release it as-is for now." The only in-game requirement is The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim which replaced a dragon with Thomas as well as adding sound effects from the show

Since then, Thomas has even found his way into Elden Ring.

As for Hogwarts Legacy. PCG's review ongoing controversy about the game and its link to Harry Potter creator J.K. Rowling.
