Hey guys! Happy New Year! Late I know but I want to add my input here.

It is a shame that the line has so few buildings now, though I do understand why. I agree with most every suggestion that everyone has posted so far so I'll try not to be redundant. Ffarquhar is a must. I think you could do it in resin, but also if need be get away with it in plastic. It would sell amazingly.

Personally I'm more interested in things that have practical use on the railway rather than set dressing like the haunted mine. Not that it is a bad suggestion, and I would buy it in a heartbeat.

I agree with Candygram that the Tidmouth Yard sheds are a wonderful idea. They would sell like hotcakes.



This shed is iconic, and I'd love to have one on the layout.

More incoming. I'll be editor of this post as for some reason it keeps erasing my text as I add more.

This is a wonderful suggestion. I always wanted to grab one of these for G. In HO I'd be even more tempted because of the large number of engines. Even though I'm old school and just love the sounds of the engines running along the track.  ;)

Yes. It seems to happen once it gets too big. The first topic was created in 2005 so it's been some time. This is I think the 4th or 5th iteration.

Seems to finally be that time again, I can't believe it's been so long since the first one. 

Happy to keep this going....

Thomas will be coming down our track forever.

That much would be insane. It has certainly been discussed, most fans make their own. $25 for a pack of 5 would be more reasonable.

Really can't tell you how much we will miss you Doug. You helped make this brand what it is.

Was so grateful to be a part of the stream, can't wait to see what's coming down the track.

I noticed today Winston is gone from the catalog? Has he been discontinued?

Awesome! But wouldn't it have to be a slight gloss to match the paint work of the coaches?

Hey all,

I'd like to paint the red coaches' roofs   white to match the classic series.

Any recommendations on which paint to use?

Thank you Sir! I have done that, just wondering if anyone had any experience or preference in terms of brand.

Hey everyone,

So I thought what better place to ask this question?

I am looking for options to store my engines and trucks. Boxes would be preferable but I'm honestly open to pretty much anything that will keep them safe.

Please post suggestions here, thanks in advance.

That's all well and good. But retailers use preorders to save a space for people who want the models.

I'd assume it's on a first come first serve basis.
