Hey everyone!
@ElsbridgeP
slate incline winding house parts arrived today and I just had to place the entire structure on my layout before painting it. Many thanks
@ElsbridgeP
for this stunning model!
Hey everyone! I just finished putting together a new building kit, the Tidmouth Engine Works Shed. Thank you to
@ElsbridgeP
for designing this wonderful shed kit, and keep an eye out for it in Episode 12 of TSS as well as additional future videos.

I recently acquired
@bachmanntrains
Toby’s Museum Coaches and had to make a post on these gorgeous models. Thank you to
@SodorRyModeler
for the wonderful rolling stock suggestion.
Merry Christmas Eve everyone! Thought that now would be a good time for me to showcase another update on the layout extension. Stay tuned for a new video that will be coming very soon as well.
I picked up two of the
@bachmanntrains
blue narrow gauge carriages from
@Trainworld
today, and am awestruck by the charm of these models. Would highly recommend them to any enthusiastic Thomas modeler!
Thank you so much to everyone who tuned in to tonight’s
@Trainworld
event! It was such an honor to showcase my HO Sodor Layout this evening, and I look forward to seeing the Thomas modeling work of others in the Thomas Tuesday events to come!
Hi everyone! One of the latest model projects that I have been working on is Tidmouth Bay Castle. The castle was inspired by TopKazFatt, as it is constructed from a ceramic kit. This is still a work in progress, but stay tuned for more updates!
#thomasmodelrailroading
A massive thank you to
@Zara21king
for constructing the buildings, thinner platforms, and accessories. This was a year-long project, and every update from him was an exciting one. (2/4)

Thank you to

@BrendenReis10
for all the help with this project as well! This would have not been possible without all of you, and I am greatly looking forward to featuring the big station in future videos. (3/4)
I am now officially part of the Holiday Topham Club! A huge shoutout to
@FlyingPringle
for this amazing model and I cannot wait to showcase it in Episode 12 of TSS!
Hi everyone! I know many have inquired about the status of TSS Ep 12. With the end of the semester here at grad school rapidly approaching, I thought now would be a good time to post BTS shots for the ep. I hope to finish it when I get back home, so stay tuned for new updates!
Man, this summer went way too fast! While I am looking forward to starting my third year of college, I will miss my layout very much, just as I always do.
Merry Christmas everyone! As a yearly tradition, here is a pic of everything that I acquired this holiday season, some of which I acquired before Christmas, but still decided to add to the pic. Stay tuned for a video on these awesome items soon, and Merry Christmas once again!
As promised, here are some BTS pics from Episode 10 of TSS. Thank you to everyone for your continued interest and kind remarks toward my videos. Stay tuned for Episode 11, as well as other exciting videos planned for this summer!
Here’s another update on the layout extension, specifically on Bertram’s Old Mine. Decided to go with the abandoned look, as it looks unlike any other part of the layout.
With the Hornby Murdoch on eBay for 780 GBP at the moment, one suggestion I have for
@bachmanntrains
is to consider making an HO Murdoch for their Thomas line. Of course, a complete new tooling would not be financially feasible. Thus, one way to make this model a reality...
After plaster cloth, always add joint compound with a bit of water to your hills and mountains before painting or adding turf. It covers all the holes in the plaster cloth and makes the landscape much more sturdy 🙂.
Merry Christmas everyone! As a yearly tradition, here is a picture of everything that I acquired for this year, apart from some clothes and 3D printed faces. The annual video, showcasing these items will be coming soon as well! Stay tuned!
Hey everyone! Episode 10 of The Sodor Series is completed and now uploaded to YouTube! Hope that everyone enjoys it, and stay tuned for some BTS shots in the coming days!
Here’s a behind the scenes shot for Episode 9 of The Sodor Series, specifically for a runaway segment. I hope to have it fully completed within the coming weeks!
Everyone dislikes, but I love: Emily's New Route. I enjoyed the model work & thought that an interesting aspect to Emily's character was executed well.
Everyone loves, but I dislike: Three Steam Engines Gruff. I'm not much of a CGI guy, & the execution just feels off to me.
Merry Christmas everyone! Here is everything that I got this year with the exception of other Peco Narrow Gauge Track and the Bachmann Thomas Narrow Gauge Blue Carriage 🙂.
Given the demand for an HO Stepney, if he were to be
@bachmanntrains
next HO Thomas model with a new tooling, who do you think would be announced after him? My money is on BoCo or Derek, as both are classics, and are larger diesels, which the line could use at least one more of.
Yesterday, I had the opportunity to attend the Greenberg Train Show in Edison, New Jersey. Thank you to
@ThomasAndFans
for putting together such an awesome Thomas display and
@Zara21king
for the wonderful weathered brake van!

Hey everyone! With Season 1 of TSS now completed, join
@docta_da
and me for an exciting livestream, explaining the history of the series, an analysis on the episodes, and more! LIVE This Sunday At 9:00AM EST
Personally, I would have not been a fan of this idea, as the CGI faces give off a less realistic impression, and I prefer the designs of the model faces.
Happy Easter everyone! I just uploaded a funny blooper video to YouTube, showcasing all the failed takes for one shot from TSS Episode 9. Definitely was a pain to film, but still fun nonetheless. …

A huge thank you to the very skilled and talented Jacob Jarrett for making these three troublesome boys. Can’t wait to showcase them in Episode 7 of my series on YouTube!
I am ecstatic with the Bachmann Thomas 2022 line-up, especially the HO figure packs. Wow! Altogether, I would argue that this is one of the best Bachmann Thomas product announcements ever.
David Mitton understood how important it was for the show to look realistic, even if bits of CGI had to be incorporated. If only he were still here to see how much the show has fallen.
I am all for this! After Daisy, it would be very nice to see another long diesel join the line, and Diesel 10 is the only other one who appeared in both eras of the show.
Regarding the claw, one other idea is for the arm to be static, but the claw to open and close when running.
Am I the only one who thinks if
@bachmanntrains
made Diesel 10 with a posable claw, it would be a slam dunk?
He was in the model and CGI series, fans would buy him up without question, and kids would love the play feature of the posable claw.
I can dream, I guess...
Respect for Gordon is definitely one of my favorite episodes from Season 9. However, I also really enjoy Thomas' New Trucks, Mighty Mac, Molly's Special Special, and Emily Knows Best for various reasons.
Thank you to everyone for the birthday wishes. I’m grateful to constantly be surrounded by such passionate, inspiring, and entertaining Thomas fans. Keep on chugging!
We know it's a day late, but a very happy birthday to our very own Thomas Efficianado Christian V.! Christian has been instrumental in growing and spreading the joy of

Thomas Trains to fans around the world. Drop a comment and say Happy Birthday to our very own
So you all really seemed to like that Bachmann Ryan concept so I decided to do one engine who’s also very likely to get a model!
Here’s my take on what a Bachmann Stepney made by
@bachmanntrains
could look like! This’ll be the last Bachmann concept for a while so savor it!
Gordon Takes a Tumble: It always impressed me that this long, climactic crash was filmed with live action models, and the fact that it involves Gordon of all characters is especially humorous to me.
@bachmanntrains
@SodorRyModeler
I recently made a big post on Stepney the Bluebell Engine on the Bachmann Forum: Would it be possible if this suggestion could also be passed along?
@TheUnluckyTug
I hear the opening theme of Chickens to School to an extent, one of my favorite HiT Era themes. A variation of this theme was also present in other HiT episodes such as the opening of Thomas and the Shooting Star.
Anybody got plans for the weekend? DON'T EVEN ANSWER THAT, YES YOU DO! YOU'RE COMING TO THE NEW JERSEY EXPO CENTER IN EDISON NEW JERSEY TO SEE SOME OF OUR PROPS ON DISPLAY!! Come see us.... or else! nah we're just kidding, but if you can get to the show it should be a great time!
1. The resin buildings by Bachmann & Hornby are some of the best pieces of Thomas merchandise & don’t have the attention that is deserved.
2. The Late Model Series (HiT Era) deserves more credit for its crisp modeling and music. One example is the opening to Emily’s Adventure.
We’re absolutely honored to have to many people who up to our event, we never imagined we’d have this many fans here to see the models. A huge thank you to everyone, we’re in awe!
