This right here is one the oldest surviving Thomas Trainz videos on youtube.
"Thomas The Thick Foooker (R18)" was released on December 30th, 2006, by TheWraith, making it the only Trainz video still up from before 2007.

Hey everyone, merry Christmas!☃️
As some of you may be aware, a lot of JH55000 replicas have been made recently, and to make access to them a bit easier I decided to place them + some other community made replicas into a drive folder.
Happy holidays!🎄

Thank you @/railway_other for sending me both 2013 and 2014 ERS annuals, the 2013 one containing mostly lost and forgotten Trainz screenshots for their illustrations!
If you'd like to check both annuals out, you can read them here:

Not really Trainz but cool either way.
A now deleted mod for TF2 replaces the bomb carts with Thomas (for BLU) and James (for RED) models, what's interesting is that they both contain special thanks to Mstnoodle, very fun!

Hey all! Got a suprise for you guys today :) I spent the day searching in files, and happened to find a beta JH55000 Edward! This was found inside of a cabview along with the actual final tender! sadly no bogeys for the actual engine but we are still searching. Enjoy! :)

The first ever Edward model made by Richard Jordan (also known as Skarloey123) was actually this one! The so well known "very humble beginnings". It also uses UKBL Toby's bogey!

Today marks 15 years since Sodor Island 3D was created, on January 31st, of 2009! Can't believe it's already that old! 🎂🎊🎉
As a small yet sweet way to celebrate SI3D's 15th anniversary, what were some of your favorite models/assets/routes released by the site members?

Today the user "Kobias" sent us a collection of the Tugs3D models they had, which include:

Star Tugs with their original faces.
We never thought we would see some of these again and they will be preserved properly!

As shown in this picture, the Sodor Workshops Will model originally had the 2015 Diesel 10's Angry face mesh as a place holder.

Some time around 2015-2016, mesh edits of the 2012 Peter Sam & Sir Handel models were made to redress themselves as Stuart & Falcon respectively.

Snowy Countryside might be part of the few "Si3D routes that aren't in the Si3D site", made by SteamerVids in December of 2009, this route was released only on his YouTube page along with a few other unreleased/older ones by him.

Within Richard's Majhost gallery, images of a 2010-esque Jim are able to be found. The model is actually included in the GMAX files that he released, albeit without textures. Thanks to IROZYM & @/WingRBLX_ for the second image & information respectively.

around 2014, former user "goldwoodthomas" made a payware Trainz site called "British Loco Works". The only known item to had been available for purchase being a GWR 27xx. it went for $8 and it had a Aberdare livery (shown on the banner) sold separately.

The UKBL Mavis has had a total of three thumbnails over the years. The first one is from the model's first version, the second is from the V2 model and the third is a Trainz 2006 promo from when it was re-released on the SI3D forums. However, there's an interesting fact (1/?)

An obscure reskin of Neville was once made by former community member, SodorTrainSim. There isn't much surrounding it aside from the fact that it appeared in a video simply titled "Trainz Neville (Custom)" that has been private for some time.

Roughly around 2012-2013, Neb aka Benstack released the Skarloey slate cars onto NWR3D. He also made the other rolling stock, with images of them being shown the SI3D forums. Unfortunately, said images are yet to resurface

The Brad reskin seen on the "A Message From Brad" reupload video uses the V1 DTST Rosie as a base, and uses a frame similar to the one shown below from the episode "Tickled Pink" for its face!

The video "Thomas and the Missing Christmas Tree" by Live Steam, from 2010, contains a JH55000 model of Santa, or as refered to in the US dub used in the video, "Father Christmas". Which uses the Fat Controller model as a base, just like the actual show prop!

WOW, can't believe it's already been 1 year! I also especially can't believe the fact that we hit 1.000 followers on our birthday too!

The Tidmouth route you see below was made by SteamerVids some time before February of 2009, but only a Christmas varient is still around, which is named TidmouthXmas.cdp, released on July 5th of 2009, the route can be found on his mediafire folder.

Some time in early 2009, shortly after the UKBL team removed all of their Thomas models from the website, and some time after the opening of Sodor Island 3D, the site was linked on UKBL's links page, and it stayed there till the website's closure.

Out of every unreleased Lewis model, I find his Narrow Gauge models the most interesting!
It's unknown how many NG engines he's made, but he might have showed some off on his now deleted channel "Bingo Starr".

This Ten Cents model was made by Train4755, and the image might be from the old Si3D Forums.
This Ten Cents dates back to around 2010, maybe it's even older than the Tugs3D one?

Believe it or not, Gwion's Snow Plough can still (kinda) be found with a simple google search. On the website "Trainz Archives", you can find a archive for Flying Tardis Trainz's content, containing a reskin of Gwion's Snow Plough, although with his own user ID.

It is unlikely that this is the very first Trainz video ever, not only have videos like this been deleted over time, but there's also the fact that many video sharing sites from the UKBL days (like Google Videos) have shut down.

When Sodor Island 3D moved to the domain, the website layout was quite different from the one most are used to, the layout you see in the first picture was used some time from June 8th, of 2009, to possibly some time in 2010.

Not super Trainz related, but here's a fun fact for ya!
The "A Starr Engine" video, also known as the Thomas Clock video, was actually made by Mstnoodle himself, since he is, in fact, the user "Ausrail" on YouTube!
I still wonder what happened to this little guy tho...

@/creepyjokes2000 discovered that the video "Ruta Rural (TRS04)" is even older than "omnibús", predating it by only 2 days! Making this the oldest Trainz video to still be up.

As some of you might know, Barmy Brad was taken down from YouTube, but I think I have found the reason why:
The song "All By Myself" made the video get blocked world wide, this change was likely done in December, when the video was suddenly taken down.

Put Apon Trainz 3D has got to be one of the most mysterious Trainz sites out there, simply due to the fact that it doesnt have a lot of history left to tell, since it was never archived properly.
The site was active around early 2010, shutting down out of the blue in 2011.

Back around 2011, Trainboy54 (yes, THE Trainboy54) made a few Trainz videos on one of his channels. As of posting this tweet, none of his Trainz videos were preserved and it's unlikely they'll resurface, despite the user attached to them.
