I don't think the UK versions have been released yet, but if you do a search for https://railsofsheffield.com/, they ship to the US.

Here we talk about trains that are made by Bachmann. In the general forum, we talk about real trains as well.

And I'm not entirely sure that it was their choice where the question went. If you look to the right of our names a little bit, it shows "Re: N Scale Thomas." For the person who asked the question, it says "Wanna Discuss Something."

I'm not sure why it would be different, but the same thing happened in another topic on another sub-forum a few days ago.

I'm glad you're on the home-stretch of beating the virus!

Large / 0-4-0 Gas Mechanical Motor Size
August 17, 2020, 03:22:57 PM
In the kitbashing section of the Large scale parts area, there's a motor for the 0-4-0 Gas Mechanical. Does anyone know about how large the motor is? Like, what are its dimensions? Thanks!

Sorry for the double post, but I got a bit more of my project done today!

Part Two: The Airfield Control Tower & Windsock

I was able to get the airfield control tower put together this week. The top of it doesn't really reflect the original model's design, and was only included to give a rough sense of height. It is only a mock-up project, after all. I didn't include the stairs or the sock itself, but they don't take up much room anyway.

Just curious, could these connect with the Skarloey engines?
Kind of. They all have NEM coupling pockets, so if you switch out a few couplings between the wagons, they could connect, but if you wanted to just connect them without doing anything, they couldn't because they have different couplings.

I don't know if any of you have heard this, but there's a guy on YouTube called InstrumentManiac and he's been doing instrumental covers of the classic Thomas & Friends themes recently. I highly reccomend checking out his channel. I would post a link, but I can't seem to get one using my phone and I don't have access to a computer right now.

I missed the Thomas and Friends presentation part. Does anyone have screencaps from that part of the new products?
If you go to YouTube and search Trainworldtv, you should be able to find the presentation. The Thomas & Friends part starts around 18 minutes in.

This was pretty awesome! Like everyone else, I'm super happy to see the updates to everything, but I'm especially glad to see the new N Scale Tankers! They look great!

Today I started on the Air Traffic Control Tower, although I haven't cut anything yet. It's kind of an interesting building, because it's simple enough that I could just put the bordered detailing on it and paint it, but it's still got that complex control box on top, which I haven't started yet because I'm not quite sure how to do angled stuff like that. Here's a pic of the side with the stairs:



And here are a couple of pictures of what I've done so far. I'm not quite sure that I  positioned the window that's circled in red right or not (it's the one by the stairs on the real model, hence the above picture).

One thing I would like to add. Just looked on trainworld's website and Annie, Clarabel and the Truck's are all showing (add to cart) where as Thomas and Percy are (Taking Back orders) so maybe they are out now? My brains not working 100% today so someone please tell me if I am wrong
That's interesting, it's showing the same for me, too.

Is it just me or is Thomas' whistle blue?
It does kind of look like it, but I wouldn't worry too much. The Large Scale Percy photo, for example, shows a green bunker, but the actual product has the correct black bunker.

Nice to finally see official pictures of Thomas and Percy! I'm excited for the new line's release!
