[@Oniontoonsandmore]

I love your vids

[@Daddy_donaldanddouglas]

Dont we all?

[@happymark1668]

Yeah that’s why we’re all here

[@granpuff.]

DAYYYY OF THE DOUGLAS, YEAH YEAH!

[@davidaviles1754]

"hey Dougie, why are you not completely full sticker detailed!"

[@amitysluzara2022]

This makes this model so much better! Great modification! Very fitting to do it for Douglas too since Donald and Douglas are often double heading in the show

[@Jadinite-2006]

Me seeing a Trackmaster Donald & Douglas double heading a train together: "YEEEEEEEESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!!!!!!"

[@ThatboyJames5]

Hello trainboy I just wanted to say I love your videos and I watch every single one of your videos

[@ItsTrainBoy]

Thank you so much my dude :)

[@ThatboyJames5]

@@ItsTrainBoy One more question I’m making a book about Thomas and friends and I just wanted to know do you want a free copy of it when it comes out?

[@ThatboyJames5]

@jonathanmiller6422 thank you

[@pokekard7689]

this will be useful for some of my old trackmasters, great video!

[@LFPman]

Front couplings have always been a dream of mine for my Tomy and Trackmaster trains. Then you can doublehead trains and make your own Sodor in your room come to life. One day i’ll make those modifications

[@overusedenginesproductions]

So glad there a some donald and douglas centered videoes here since they are my personal number 1 favorites

[@BarryTheShunter13]

oh yeah new train boy video!

[@briandesens144]

Awesome video trainboy

[@LilWesternStudios]

Another good video my boi!

[@LittleMinerNay]

I love this trackmaster series

[@Leonardo-cw1dd]

yoooo donald and douglas vid along with celebrating my aunt’s b-day. damn this day is busy

[@thepurplemyth]

Another banger upload man

[@ItsTrainBoy]

You already know it bro 😤💪 Thank you so much for watching this one too homie

[@thepurplemyth]

@@ItsTrainBoy Anytime homie.

[@DSK_Terrence_Official]

4th. Keep Making Good Content. Your some of my inspiration Edit: I FINALLY ORDERED THEM OFF AMAZON TODAY!!! (September 4th, 2023)

[@theblackleafninja3858]

W video trainboy as always know I can finally do this

[@happymark1668]

It would be cool to see them repainted to blue like the RWS to have them more detailed and original and not just a knockoff

[@GHOSTZILLAX]

Love the song in the beginning, u know what it's called, and of course love the video ❤keep up the work

[@StewieJustSaidThat]

Yeah Boi, the intro is back!

[@SkyeSoarer04]

Rather useful thanks for showing us

[@ItsTrainBoy]

My pleasure homie, thank you for watching if anything:)

[@Paper246]

Do not worry yourself, Henry!

[@thomasthetankengine2642]

So genius to put a coupling on Douglas I did the same thing when I got Douglas

[@nepsoa]

You know its gonna be a good day once Train boy uploads!

[@traintimeboy]

I just had a thought, should I 3d print an attachment similar to snow plows that can give any engine a front coupler?

[@internet03]

EEEEEEE FINALLY

[@tomytrainguy7975]

Best customs ever made.

[@shawnagilmore7242]

Love you train boy

[@shawnagilmore7242]

I tried to do the front hook to my trackmaster 2 talking percy

[@D.S_Productions]

I have also Added to most of my Engines Front Couplers even to Diesel 10 and BoCo

[@BillandBenProductions6792]

You can also put front couplings on your engines without cutting the front coupler things and by putting Front couplings on the bottom of your engines with Blu Taks like I saw in a how to front couplings on your engines tutorial video.

[@the-frozen-van]

I try it on a hit toy ben, it ended pretty cool

[@joshpack7330]

True that Trainboy! This is awesome! It's a shame you can't do the leader on and trailing off with Trackmaster 2 engines, since they can't free wheel. Tomy, Plarail, and Trackmaster 1 will always rule!

[@athomasfan43]

Agreed

[@scotthamp384]

You oughta see if you can get the breakdown van and give it two loop couplers like in The Deputation and Love Me Tender

[@Fcmobileplayz120]

There they are my favorite

[@pugproductions8655]

I honestly wish I actually managed to get My hands on a douglas xd thanks for making this video though

[@ItsTrainBoy]

THERE IS STILL TIME MY HOMIE- 🥹 Really my dude don’t give up just yet on getting one; there’s so many fakes AND so many real ones still around I already know one will find it’s way to ya :)

[@jordywatson1179]

Donald and Douglas always work together

[@tee6025]

“Douggie! I’ve been in Improved!”

[@DisneyMatthewSkunk]

Awesome job my guy By the way did you hear Eddie glen is voicing Toby in all go ?

[@anthonystrikcani3840]

Classic

[@ToyFreddyGaming1987]

While I get why Tomy never had Front Couplers, I get why people call it "cheap merchandising".

[@MarcsAmazingAdventures]

Same

[@ChomuOmu]

OMG YESSSSS YOU HAVE JOIN ME ON THE DARK SIDEEEE

[@FortheloveofThomas84]

I wonder if you will get Donald and Douglas snow plows the 3D printed Trackmaster ones from shapeways and you will do a tutorial on how you can apply those to the twins so they can be reattached any time? I was wanting to try and get them on eBay but they're very expensive so I might as well stick to buying those 3D printed ones from shapeways

[@anthonystrikcani3840]

Donald will be so jealous

[@ItsTrainBoy]

AND I made him the lead engine this man better chill- 😤

[@anthonystrikcani3840]

@@ItsTrainBoy yeah but they are twins and just like bill and Ben they attend to argue

[@Molten_Mike]

I came one minute after this was posted but it took two minutes for my phone to load this video I was trying to claim my 1-minute spot

[@FortheloveofThomas84]

I wonder if you'll get 3D printed snow plows for them shapeways sells the Donald and Douglas snow plows

[@CurtisCreates]

Watching your vids has really gotten me reinterested in Tomy Trains. Was curious where the best place is to purchase for someone in US. Is it just ebay at this point, or any official outlets to get more recent plarail stuff?

[@athomasfan43]

Amazon and for older stuff flea markets

[@Cheeseburger148]

Hello I have a question where did you get the tomy/trackmaster decals?

[@CoolBlueDog]

How were you able to get the replacement stickers? I thought Custom Trackmasters sold them out.

[@PercyandSailorMoonfan2002]

Maybe you could do this with Ben too!

[@TURKSAvionicLocos]

I need to know please how did you get or make the stickers?

[@Killdane]

Hey! You aren’t Too Much Thomas ! 😤

[@ItsTrainBoy]

Gimme one more year!! 💪😤

[@Killdane]

@@ItsTrainBoy By then I hope you have a big Thomas on your layout! 💪

[@stefantopan1839]

I realy nded rhis for my tomy james he is broken and i dont have a new 1 and i cant buy a new bc i am in romania and i cant have international shiping so THANK YOU :)

[@merlinandmurdoch7837]

Funny how Emily was there at the running session, the snowy version no less, happy accident or joke?

[@Alextrains502]

Hi

[@louisianamainlineproductions]

Where did you get the stickers?

[@The_guy25]

There was a dark side of day out with Thomas where you and 2 other people looked at day out with Thomas events and shared it on discord, for some reason I can’t find it

[@Molten_Mike]

Also trainboy I kind of have no other options to get a Tomy Donald or Douglas the fake ones are the only ones I can get currently so I have a fake Tomy Donald and Douglas

[@comicfan1324]

Out of curiosity, do these things have lead paint or are they (relatively) safe? NOT to say I’m thinking of purchasing these, purely asking for a friend.

[@TobinsToys11]

no, it's safe, I have both and i have not gotten sick.

[@Eai5038]

Sup TRAINBOY I've been meaning to ask you if you were an engine what engine would you be I would be a avonside saddle tank with 6 wheels

[@treywalden7033]

Do you have a trackmaster/tomy gordon

[@cheekybluee2]

If I may ask, where did you get the marker disc from?

[@ItsTrainBoy]

I sadly can’t say I know 100%; I’ve gotten quite a few detail packs and they’ve sat in the drawer for awhile.. 😅 BUT I wanna say it comes from a Class 40 pack specifically?? I also know you can find them on eBay or maybe Hattons on the occasion :)

[@cheekybluee2]

Ok, thank you

[@HitToyCompany]

nice mod

[@astronomical_numbers]

where did you get those stickers? cant find them :( nice mods tho!

[@user-kt2pe9bn2w]

@ItsTrainBoy I second this, they look so accurate i would be willing to pay for them

[@Railmanmemes]

Whats the intro song

[@mystery_mister]

Ahh

[@LittleMinerNay]

You should give Donald and Douglas red buffer beams bc it’s p i n k

[@DivineDa_OG]

The fact that only one of them can pull the train scares me tbh

[@mikeavila1054]

Where did you get those stickers?

[@ItsTrainBoy]

They came from my good friend JordanTrains in an older unboxing; Custom Trackmasters used to make them :)

[@mikeavila1054]

@@ItsTrainBoy Really? I was Just watching Custom Trackmasters.

[@NiWii-yv1ej]

Cool mod! Now all Douglas needs is a reverse switch so he can pull the train in Reverse. 🤷‍♂️😂

[@vhanz-]

You can put a foil where the spring terminal is then put a battery the opposite way you normally do, and then your engine will run backwards.

[@CoolBlueDog]

I was able to find a busted Tomg Donald on ebay and replaced my counterfeit Donald with the face. Now I wonder how I'm gonna get Douglas....

[@SMB5BMI]

I just wish he gets tomy Douglas

[@0ffSider]

What happened to Butters? I haven’t seen him in a while and was wondering if I missed something?

[@ItsTrainBoy]

I explained awhile ago he just doesn’t live with me haha; he and his brother Tim live with my parents since I don’t have much space and they need more of it :)

[@0ffSider]

Good to hear he and Tim are doing good then 👍

[@mystery_mister]

First comment

[@ThatboyJames5]

Stop the cap because I was the first one to comment

[@thatonecaledonian812]

Mfs be putting front couplers on Douglas like he doesn’t even get to go in front

[@Keith_Hartley]

Douglas is screaming as he got cut

[@HauntedHenry]

How you manage to like knockoffs inside your house and think it is safe.. is by far superhuman

[@PopCorn-pv8qq]

22 hours till this is 24 hours or 1 day old

[@tramengineproductions]

nuh uh

[@harrisonallen651]

Doesn’t look like a knockoff now

[@loanedengineproductions]

How are Rico and Rosie doing?

[@ItsTrainBoy]

Lovely!! I just fed them both coincidentally :) Rosie keeps getting bigger/ chasing trains and Rico is still his usual laid back conductor self (Until there’s a diesel at play that is)

[@loanedengineproductions]

@@ItsTrainBoy haha, I'm proud of both, Rico is a great conductor and he might end up being a controller one day

[@ItsTrainBoy]

Let’s be honest he already is; the little man can run circles around me AND manage the railway at the same time 😅

[@loanedengineproductions]

@@ItsTrainBoy I guess so!

K but like bet henry could pull more🙄
