Cool seeing some actual footage.

I live about a 20 minute drive away from there. Not been in years though but used to go all time as kids for days out with Thomas events. Once those stopped, place went downhill.

That was a wonderful video. I was there on the Saturday and Sunday. I think I saw a photo of myself on the beginning. Keep up the good work. 🙂

Those tugs models are in a really good condition

[@RogueRail]

Someone has been going around saying that the Star Tugs Trust was mistreating Tugs models. But I’m glad to see that they’re okay. 😮‍💨

[@braysfinds7479]

Hate to burst you're bubble, but almost nothing on the Tugs is original anymore. The names, flags, and more have been generally completely replaced. They said that this was "restoration..."

[@kupferbergbahn7952]

@@braysfinds7479 That's not true. They're doing much more than that to restore them. How about you actually go and visit them and see for yourself rather than spreading bs online?

[@braysfinds7479]

So throwing Zip into a live firebox counts as restoring then? Or hiding scripts and picture?

[@kupferbergbahn7952]

@@braysfinds7479 The photo of Zip was taken because it's fun, they never threw the prop into the firebox, kid.

[@JosephRailwayStudios2000]

It’s funny how Tom props actually owns two of the composite coaches the red ones Drayton Manor owns a composite and a brake coach and there was actually another Composite and brake coach on display here

[@thegoattrain]

That's stuff from drayton being restored (poorly) by Sam and Sean

[@the4tierbridge]

Shit, the Trust has these. Can’t wait for them to be broken.

[@canyouseefish5941]

I certainly don't agree with certain things that the Trust has done but when I was there recording this video, the prop preservation and restoration had really taken a step-up from what I'd previously heard. Also, if you're talking about them owning the Thomas models (Arthur, BoCo, etc.) they don't, those props are on loan from the vaults at Mattel

[@the4tierbridge]

@@canyouseefish5941 I mean, the 3.5 gauge Thomas wasn’t even on the tracks. And, what about Edward? How did they get him?

@@canyouseefish5941 “Doing their best”? Oh my god they’ve brainwashed you! Plus, taking the things apart, letting people play with them like toys (which has caused some to stop working), placing them in extreme environments, etc is not “doing their best”. Plus, it’s run by Scam Wilkinson and Sean O’shithead, notorious scammers who prey on naive fans, and has done some “shady” things with their money. Plus, Thomas-land is actually enjoyable, unlike the brake coach they call a “museum”, and DM actually started to invest in fixing up Discover: Thomas & Friends, unlike the Trust, who continue to over-charge people to look at damaged models,
