[@matthewhahn1132]

Wow look amazing

[@mralfpit]

Thank you! 🙏

[@Cheesewithsand]

I love these types of videos just the engines running and music also love the troublesome truck customs you made are those 3d printed faces to for the trucks

[@mralfpit]

Yeah me too, just a “Come chill and watch some trains run”. The truck faces I got of shapeways (I forget the sellers name) and than painted myself. 🙏

[@Cheesewithsand]

@@mralfpit Yeah i know the seller faces of trouble the way you painted them they look amazing great job

[@t.michaeloriain3459]

the red engine could be Rosie, when might you have Emily.

[@mralfpit]

Haha could be. I won’t be getting Emily, these are the only engines I wanted and grew up with but Emily is pretty cool 😎

[@Toastie_17]

Awesome but I have a question Is the footplate / running board on Thomas and Percy custom painted as they have their old coloured bodies and old faces I assume you painted that yourself

[@mralfpit]

Yeah I painted them on myself with a bit of help from some masking tape

Thomas, we love you.

[@FlatMagnets1992]

I am so in love with the Hornby Thomas range. Your collection is extensive and very much enviable. Loved seeing you playing around with different shot compositions, set layouts, rakes, and character combinations. What more could one ask for? Just getting lost in train world. Actually your filming style kind of reminds me of Season 1 of the show because it’s all more or less still shots; no moving camera. Gives everything a more peaceful feeling; just letting the trains pass us by.

[@mralfpit]

I’m glad you enjoyed the video! Yeah I tried to mix in as many character/rolling stock combinations as possible. I’ve always wanted to collect these characters since I was a kid and have always preferred hornby’s models compared to bachmanns. Thanks for watching!

[@thegoodnickplaysteam]

Nice, while it would be nice to have more characters, the issue is it might be hard to service them and they are expensive, and thats why i use the motorized thomas range slightly more also new sub.

[@mralfpit]

@@thegoodnickplaysteam I’m happy with the ones I have for sure!

[@thegoodnickplaysteam]

@@mralfpit that's good.

[@alexsmyth17]

Well done yet again. A wider range of both trains and music this time around, so well done. And that wasn’t even me watching the video in its entirety, so well done.

[@mralfpit]

Thank you very much. Glad you enjoyed!

[@alexsmyth17]

@@mralfpit No problem. I’ve since been to a model Railway exhibition and am receiving help in re-constructing my own model Railway, one stage at a time. Henry has been fixed (to my knowledge) and I have concluded that any loose configurations which are of minor detriment characterise trains that have been enjoyed throughout the years.

[@mralfpit]

@@alexsmyth17 that sounds awesome! Hornby Henry always has a problem haha, glad to hear he’s fixed

[@alexsmyth17]

@@mralfpit Thanks. Haven’t had the opportunity to run him yet though…

[@mary.of.mares.1470]

If you want to make it little better, I think you should by Bachmann Toby

[@mralfpit]

Nah for me it’s got the be the Hornby engines, they are what I grew up with. But Bachmann ones will do when there are no Hornby versions available. However I do think Bachmans Toby looks better

[@mary.of.mares.1470]

@@mralfpit looks like him from the show, brenners books, and RWS from Christopher's book but still Hornby Gordon can stay

[@agreenwelltank21]

Nice job
