Today I've been working on my TVS map of the Island of Sodor. This is the rough draft that I made ben tracing outlines from David Mittons maps, in-show maps, and thw rws map to fill in gaps. What do you think so far?

youve heard of the flying kipper, but have you heard of the purple nurple

😍 Rapido have just made a surprise announcement for a new batch of their popular Highland Railway "Jones Goods" locomotives in OO Gauge! Shop now: go.railsofsheffield.com/4ciEhN

@AndrewtheLNERA1 @Phantom_fazbear I used a cotton bud lightly dipped in paint removal

@GbHtrain @Phantom_fazbear How did you remove the original number? He looks great!

Here is my model of NWR D2 BoCo. I picked up a Heljan Class 28 on offer, and in less than a day turned it into our favourite Metropolitan Vicars

On this day in 1951, we became the World's First Preserved Railway. 75 years ago a group of amateurs ran a train, it wasn't a very long train and it only went as far as Rhydyronen - but it became the starting line for the global heritage railway movement, kicking off the idea...

@PercyTSTE £20-£25

@GbHtrain How much is shipping to the US?

A massive SALE of some more od my model stuff, including a few of my rare collection. As before, DM or message me if interested in anything.

@Mungi318813 I have a very large model collection

@GbHtrain Don’t mind me asking but how the hell do you even have stuff left to sell at this point

@TobysTramway I'd be interested in making a model of him in OO9 Gauge. I assume he's based on the Welshpool and Llanfair Beyer Peacocks?

I’ve had a few people ask me, figured I’d give an answer here. Yes, you can absolutely make your own Gruffydd customs/models/stories! He’s free range as far as I’m concerned, and if you do make anything with him, please tag/credit me! I’d love to see what you come up with!

Coaches - £30 each Wagons - £10 each Hornby Thomas tankers - £15 each 3D Printed reject NG Vans - £50 3D Printed MG Incline Gutter Kit - £40

Hornby Britannia - £110 Bachmann H2 - £140 Hornby Dublo Dwight - £250 Hornby B1 - £110 Hornby Patriot Rhyl - £130

@AndrewtheLNERA1 I previously use a Princess chassis and body and heavily customized it. I'm currently in the process of redoing the Cathedral with a King chassis

@GbHtrain Oh nice! Do you per chance have any advice/tips for making a cathedral in OO? Im aware it’s probably not the best project for a beginner like me, but if possible it would still be nice to know

@GbHtrain whatever happened with this?

Along with the pantograph, the bogies have arrived. After fitting the motor in between them and joining them up, they fit inside the EF1 body and chassis which is such a huge relief to me. Now to solder the wiring and cross fingers that it’ll run.

Exciting developments today. The first of the pantographs have arrived for my Peel Godred engine and they look so cool sitting atop the roof. I’ll need to cut off the moulded ones, but that can wait until after everything else is done.

81 years of The Railway Series!

"Thomas is a tank engine who lives at the big station. He has six small wheels, a short stumpy funnel, a short stumpy boiler and a short stumpy dome." Hapoy 81st Anniversary to the RWS. Here's a commissioned RWS Thomas in his teal livery to celebrate.
