You know I’m a huge fan of this, right?

“Isn’t that right little James!” said Gordon truthfully.

[@SPG69]

Wooden Railway accurate James

[@Tyler-zi6tz]

James the dope ass engine. I love this thing. He looks so awesome. Can't wait to see what you come up with next.

[@ItsTrainBoy]

I can’t wait to run some trains with my BRO again 🥺💪 Thank you so much my dude and be ready to meet this little goon soon hehe

[@Taupea5]

Edward might work as the same model and also why not classic style troublesome trucks

[@RWSfan2025]

I actually like it, at first thought it was off putting but grown to like it.

[@ChomuOmu06]

I’m surprised that nobody has ever made an 0-6-0 James until now, considering how his irl basis is an 0-6-0. Awesome model as always! I’ve been looking forward to this ever since you first posted about it. Glad to finally see a full video about it.

[@ItsTrainBoy]

Thank you so much Chomo :) I hope it hasn’t been TOOO annoying with the constant updates on the little guy haha

[@altermike3197]

TrainBoy himself actually made an 0-6-0 James from a Dean Goods before this one He's now since added leading wheels to make James a 2-6-0, but still

[@altermike3197]

For some reason, I thought this was the AEG James you unpacked turned into a model Because of the squished size and different size chasis - I love this tiny James! Oh, and to be fair... Wooden Railway James has been a 0-6-0 for years

[@Shunteration]

The noise in the background during certain shots legitimately made me worried that I was developing schizophrenia. Other than that, great vid, and the model looks great, too!

[@MasterOfTheLemons]

It's hilarious that you fixed his weight distribution by putting a whole lot of weight in the front end, when an overly-heavy front was exactly what the class 28s suffered from that made TFC give him the pony truck in the first place haha. I adore how this looks bravo to you both

[@ItsTrainBoy]

It is a little ironic isn’t it- 😅 Thank you so much brother man I’m glad you enjoyed :)

[@harrisonallen651]

The RWS Accurately proportioned James

[@TankEngine97]

James looks pretty good as an 0-6-0. Beautiful looking model too.

[@warrior3456_]

I remember James as 0 6 0 when I started watching the show as a adult I had a Mandela effect moment

[@rmarsh9387]

been following the development of this guy for a while, awesome to finally see him get his own video. Without that extended front James does look so much smaller, no wonder he's so mad. Awesome model, you and TrainStorm are amazing

[@Scott_3F]

Me and trainboy have the right idea, small engines are best 🤙

[@ItsTrainBoy]

Small Engine Policy in full effect on this railway 👀🤣

MAN you right 😔

[@thethomasman]

What a cute little James model! Are you gonna do another one like him?

[@timestealer9152]

As an 0-6-0 James looks much closer to a Lancashire and Yorkshire Railway Class 28 that he seems to be based on.

[@evanclarke5561]

Who's to say he's not actually based on an 'Austrian Goods' engine from the Glasgow and South Western Railway? They were 2-6-0s who unfortunately all got scrapped

[@Lnerfan1]

The 0-6-0 looks jealous of the 2-6-0 🤣😢

[@merritttrainboy7716]

Nice looking 'what if' model of James. Imagine what he would look like as a 0-6-0 like the real thing. Despite there were some actual drawings of the 2-6-0 tender engine, but they never went for it.

[@FictionalADDON]

I know old stuck up might be next, I knew it’s gonna happen. Btw keeping going dude your gonna need it.

[@crymstal.]

My favorite Thomas character. James the Tank Engine.

Great video now i need to build one of my own this is amazing cant wait to see more trainboy love it

[@Captintod]

Bro trainstorm you did really did great, I think I could probably see if I can buy one of your models!

[@Isaac_RLP]

looks pretty funni awesome

[@djoannapatricia]

The front part off james looks like the James from sodor online 👁👄👁

[@djoannapatricia]

(The engine part)👁👄👁

[@Mr.toasterandclay]

This is a very cool concept

[@lukechristmas3951]

Bachmann's model for James, and more specifically the TVS prop, makes it look like James was built as a Mogul from the start, even though the RWS illustrations depicted James as a Mogul before his accident rebuild, and that always bothered me/got me thinking of what James would look like as a plain 0-6-0. Now, your wonderful model has given me a clear image and another reason to try and make one for myself for the fun of it. Of course, this means James officially loses his place in the big engines trio.

[@Sleeper____1472]

When I think of a mid-sized tender locomotive, I think of a 2-8-0. 0-6-0s are like switchers. Once again, British stuff is small.

[@evanclarke5561]

What about rebuilding models of Donald and Douglas as 2-6-0s for your layout? After all the Glasgow and South Western Railway (in Scotland) once had a type of steamers with this wheel arrangement otherwise known as the 'Austrian Goods' type

[@Damon_Drawings]

The old stuck up is looking nice

[@greatwestern57]

8:32 Is that old stuck up i see there?

[@daniellecox6906]

Maybe it's D199

[@MrNoUsername]

What's the source at 1:58?

[@InkyPF]

I absolutely adore the idea of an 0-6-0 James and honestly this is probably one of the best James models I’ve ever seen! He’s just a silly little guy!! Oh and fuck UPS there shipping sucks anyways

[@eric555cuevas]

this is a good in canon thing james used to be a 0-6-0 but after his first day crash his front was so damaged it had to be rebuilt and STH wanted to do a "experiment" from make james from a 0-6-0 to a 2-6-0

[@calebc.2290]

My oh my another cute and charming engine. What’s next an Atlantic Gordon? Skarloey as a tender engine. What ever cursed, yet charming engine will you unveil next?

[@keatonendler8202]

Oh my.. A blue Diesel locomotive I see? Spamcan or Old Stuck Up?

[@ThomasFisher-jr6bn]

I haven't seen anyone make a TV series Thomas model with a straight running board like in the later RWS books.

[@wumpus976]

Now he’s just the Plarail James!

[@growlie2676]

But his looks better.

[@BalticoYT]

A great model of a cursed concept. Also, it's nowhere mentioned that James originally came as an 0-6-0 in the IOS book, or RBTL, so should I really trust HIT's attempt? Especially when it makes the mistake that he became a 2-6-0 after his accident, where the original illustration shows him being such before it occurred? Seems to me like it was sHIT's attempt to mention his basis being an 0-6-0, but it ended up causing an error.

[@Alextrains502]

Cool

[@Track_Side]

Are you gonna do a cured DOWT model I noticed that blue class 40 in the background just an idea but you should have some circle faces printed and stick them on a few diesels

[@benjaminskatzes]

Hey Trainboy, are you gonna upload a video of the Lean James? That model was a beaut!

[@ComicAndrew39]

If you ever make a layout based on a realistic sodor location, you could use these engine due to the fact they have some realism in them.

[@Steamer96]

If James is an 0-6-0 then, the Scottish twins should be 0-8-0's. Why? We need very powerful RWS canon freight locomotives on Sodor.

[@thewoodenkipper]

It looks great

[@Iced_Cake]

It’s TWR James!

[@scotthamp384]

So, after his wooden brake blocks caught on fire in the RWS, why did The Fat Controller (or whatever you wanna call him) have the front wheels added to James?

[@jackswan3420]

I think it was to prevent "nosediving" when James travels at high speed, which was apparently a rather common problem for his class

[@Madladmx]

Bro yes another video

[@briandesens144]

Awesome video trainboy

[@YummyBrowniebread]

I also like james as a 0-6-0 he looks cute this model is very good. Also we can make the joke about sodor online cursed James

​@@evanclarke5561 i'm talking about second james that appears at 1:33

[@2428matt]

Could you think of doing a 2-4-0 or just 0-4-0 Thomas? I remember seeing Hornby ones so you could use them as some refrence

[@Ben31337l]

Looking at autotrains, which Thomas ultimately was for his branchline, an 0-4-2T or 0-4-4T would fit much better with the driving wheels under the boiler rather than the bunker.

[@Matts_Creations]

James as 2-6-0 is normal. But this is IRL and TVS Accurate. So it is a decent little model. Plus Shipping is getting more ridiculous everyday. I feel you

[@A_person473]

brooo, what is that intro song!?

[@TankEngineMedia]

James mainly being a 0-6-0 is a very interesting idea. James looks so cute along side Percy Their models look like they were squished down and made it work. Fantastic video and model

[@Ben31337l]

Honestly, an 0-6-0 James would be perfect for most applications, both mainline and branch line.

[@Keepuem]

"the best character in all of Thomas and friends" what? I don't see Edward. All jokes aside this is a beautiful model!

[@FrankStudiosOfficial]

Gordon: you destroyed my image James: what do you mean Gordon: your the size of a tank engine James: no I'm no- James: WHATTT!???

[@TheOnlySoycicle]

So right but so different

[@SaltyVan]

[@AlfredsNumbahOnefan]

Aeg edward?

[@ItsTrainBoy]

That sounds about right 😭

[@AlfieM2010YT]

He looks like the wooden railway battery powered James

[@MarkTheOnes]

Stubby big engine huh? I don't see him pulling the express now.

[@AntoniosUniverse.]

Bruh having essential tremors is the worst, especially when trying to pick up stuff with a spoon or trying to attach decals

[@andrewchapman2024]

I think James looks a little bit too short. If you were to extend the body and put a longer 0-6-0 wheel Base under him, he would be much better looking as an 0-6-0. But I do think his 0-6-0 configuration is quite wonderful.

[@joshpack7330]

What's your favorite custom model you've recieved so far?

[@evanclarke5561]

James: But I'm supposed to be a big engine - not small like Donald and Douglas! I don't understand why this has happened to me.

[@the25thdoctor]

Huh 0-6-0 james being rear heavy? I wonder why…. (It’s almost as if he was rebuilt to be a 2-6-0 to fix that…)

[@mrsodorv2]

0-6-0 James is canon to the model series in a book it says James used to be a 0-6-0 but the fat hat made him longer

[@DillianTrainzStudios]

Am I the only one who noticed James kinda looks like an Fowler 4F?

[@OkSmokeBreather]

next is gordon tiny gordon pulling the express would be funny

[@MVF_2024-]

shipping model trains were bad in the 60-70s my dad said he got a flying scotsman when he was a kid but in the shipping it got broken

[@thetrainloverdk]

Now a 0-4-0 or a 2-8-4.

Why does 0-6-0 james look normal and not cursed.

[@Soupdog4557]

You know he is from the cgi but I would love to see hiro

[@jaredhebert942]

I'm right there with you, Hiro just feels like he belongs on a Sodor layout (regardless of his basis not being built for the UK); I'm honestly surprised Bachmann hasn't made a Hiro for the HO range considering his popularity - I get they have the Bullied Light Pacific and generic 1870s-era 4-4-0s to work with for Rebecca & *_B E A U_* of all things, but Hiro's wheels resembling boxpok or Scullin drivers could help get ahead for Connor and his NY Central Super Hudson brethren

[@davepost1960]

But James looks the most like a k3 engine
