Dear friends,
Upon her arrival at the Big Station, Jinty found herself at odds with a grumpy James - but got her own back quickly! I hope you enjoy “Clockwork Engine”!
Sincerely,

What with being away at the National Railway Museum in York, I didn't get the chance to post my latest videos.

Hey everyone. Just been on a lovely holiday in York.
Been to the National Railway Museum and to Locomotion in Shildon.
Whilst in England I picked up this gorgeous Stirling Single model by @rapidotrains.co.uk
The last month or so I've been taking things at a slow pace as I don't want to burn myself out. I am happy to say however that next project is almost finished!
This time we'll be having a bit of fun on Thomas's Branch Line.
More updates coming soon...
Edward the Blue Engine and James the Red Engine are shunting trucks at Wellsworth station. James looks very annoyed. Edward can't help but smile.
“Shunting for a ‘slow goods’ train indeed – it’s ridiculous!”
“You’re never happy are you, James?”

Dear friends,
We’re all aware that Godred met an early end - but did you know a story survives of his attempts to “help” with the Mountain Railway’s construction? You soon will - I hope you enjoy “Godred’s Guidance”!
Sincerely,

Anyone fancy seeing a Special Attraction?

Ryan the Purple Engine, Duck the Great Western Engine and James the Red engine are at Knapford station. James is letting off steam, looking annoyed. Duck and Ryan are smiling at him. Clearly, Duck has been teasing James again.
“You know, James, if you worked as hard as you spoke, you’d be the hardest-working engine I’d know!”

Hi all. Been finishing up another audio story for the weekend. This time a RWS set one focusing on one of the more minor characters in the series
2026 marks 40 years since series 2 of Thomas & Friends aired on television. Although series 1 was a great start to kick off a new tv show, the 2nd season really kicked it out of the park with new characters, storylines and exploring more and more into this magical island.
I finally finished my first ever custom! Hornby Diesel 10!
It was a tough, but fun experience putting this heavy metal monster together, and I’m really happy with the result!
It is night time at the Big Station and very foggy. The ghost of an old rusty steam engine lurks in the sidings. It seems to be watching Oliver the Great Western Engine and Toad the Brakevan a little way ahead. Or maybe it was just passing by, minding its own business...
4/4 ...or was it...?? 👀
Route by me.
Trevor the Traction Engine and George the Steamroller resting side by side in Wellsworth Yard. Trevor looks happy, George looks / feels confused.
Considering how often these two were seen together in the background during the HiT era, it would nice to imagine if they became unlikely friends after a time 🙂

Near end of month Trainz dump!

3. And finally we had a CGI to Classic transformation by DCG12B. He wrote Ryan into the classic era and did a brilliant job bringing a CGI character into such a nostalgic period of time. As well as that, he amazed me by starring a Culdee Fell appearance in this story too!

Yesterday was one of the best days for YouTube and the TTTE Fandom this year so far. Three videos in one day! The fun didn't stop.
1. It all started with The Unlucky Tug sharing how he made his custom Toby and James models

"Good grief do you ever stop being so cheerful?" Ruth hissed as they thundered onto the viaduct.
"Oh come on, lighten up" Richard chuckled "Before you got repainted you always loved a joke" Ruth didn't reply. Richard hadn't seen how things were changing now BR had formed...
