In honour of the 80th anniversary of the Railway Series tomorrow, May 12 2025, I'm releasing my Railway Series-style model of Terence the Tractor. He was the first non-railway character introduced in the books, in Tank Engine Thomas Again.
Britt Allcroft, the producer who brought Thomas the Tank Engine to TV, passed away on Christmas Day 2024.
It's safe to say that without her drive and dedication, the series would not have had the impact that it has. The show she adapted from Reverend Awdry's books brought joy to many childhoods, including my own. For that, I am grateful.
I made this model of Lady for the tribute video I put on Youtube. Given that Britt voiced her in Thomas and the Magic Railroad, I thought it appropriate. This model has now been released in the 'What If' engines section.
Rest in peace, Britt, and thank you.
For Christmas this year, I've released models of LMS 'porthole' coaches. There are {} body types, in 12 liveries, and they can be found in the 'Standard Gauge Rolling Stock' section.
Merry Christmas everyone, and I hope you have a fantastic 2025.
