“Goodbye Bertie!” Called Thomas

Here’s my entry for the #JustLikeAwdry challenge

In case any of my fellow creatives also needed this reminder:

Today's the first time actually using it for painting

This also gives me an opportunity to showcase the exquisite vinyl work that has been carried out on my Thomas model, done by @terrier55stepney.bsky.social - Thank you again for the amazing work!

Bought a spray booth on Amazon recently. It should make painting safer and swifter.

Steam locomotive with a POC face. 'BRIGITTE' looking angry as she pulls a covered grey van, a square tank wagon and a bogie coal wagon.

Brigitte never minded mixed trains. She enjoyed the small shunting, Yet weirdly she always hated soley-goods trains.

Some think she hates unfitted stock. Others believe it's the lack of passenger praise. whilst her crew think its because she got lime in her eyes.

Our Anything Goes Gala takes place on July 5th & 6th!

As we are celebrating both Railway 200 and TR160 in 2025, this year’s event will be themed around ‘new and old’.

Watch this space for the full timetable, which we expect to share very soon!

Would that also explain why the driver is *pushing* the throttle lever?

This design features text in the shape of Thomas the Tank Engine. The text is from the story "Thomas & Gordon" from the Railway Series book, "Thomas the Tank Engine." This is Thomas' first ever appearance and his first adventure on Sodor, years ago.

Six small wheels, a short stumpy funnel, a short stumpy boiler, and a short stumpy dome. 💙✨

Just a heads up that I'm keeping sketch commissions open for the next couple weeks, and possibly longer after that.

So, if you're interested, DM me! Few slots at a time so it's not too overwhelming etc, as unfortunately I'm back at work haha.

Hey everyone! This is my attempt at Highland Railway Strath Emily. I've had this headcannon for 6 years so I'm glad to have a nice visual representation of it.

For the #RWS80thcollab , i had the pleasure to also help out on the video ! More particulary the intro with this cute lil Edward in William Middleton's style ! :]

Two steam locomotives with faces, sitting around a water tower at a railway station. The left locomotive looks, bemused, at the other who has an anxious expression.

The 1963 Season.

With a tight timetable, Bia backs off from the coach set to take on a drink. Redcap watches on, anxious.
The scottish arrival spent almost the entirety of her life pulling coal trains. This would be her first summer regularly pulling passengers.

I know I said I wouldn't post anymore on the situation, however I felt this might be necessary to share in regards to his trainz assets and their usage

His arts are a lovely thing :)

We've got one final surprise for you this week - we're happy to announce The Awdry Auction in aid of The 75 Appeal, with bids going live NOW!

We have a total of 14 lots up for grabs with something in there for any fan of the Talyllyn & the Rev. W. Awdry's works:

Skarloey takes the express

And with that, it's all done. Incredibly pleased to have finished another Robin Knight model. Here's hoping he would have enjoyed it

The Wren's open cab with the firebox poking through the front just felt too iconic to get rid of but I knew it wouldnt work in the TVS style, and I didnt just want to give him a full cab like the CGI model did

so in the end I went with a mix of the 2 and gave him a half open one
