Hey, I'm one of the organisers of the event - thank you so much for coming along and making this amazing video! I love your stuff anyhow, so a big grin came across my face when I saw this pop up - some lovely shots.

Cheers, thanks for a great event. A wonderful event, couldn't resist another chance to see 3 & 10 together (loved the Anything Goes weekend too - and got me thinking about finally started to put together my 16mm Sir Haydn which has been sat in its box for a few years, thinking it'll be finished in a livery as per Talyllyn's current livery) and had been interested in attended an Awdry Extravaganza anyway. A great event, bringing is much younger demographic is always great and will lead to a great future for the railway, well done! Just seen your posts on creating the new faces, really interesting and proper dedication, great attention to detail.

They look amazing with the new faces I do hope that all the locos will have them in time I can imagine I some one coming along and animated the faces on them that would be mind blowing

I had brilliant time I do wonder what extravaganza 2025 will hold and with it been 80th anniversary off railway seriers I do hope they do something extra special

I assume Talyllyn/Skarloey will be the star engine.

It was said on the 80th anniversary, For the First time we'd see the Pilot of TTTE, the original shooting of down the mine

Perfect

It wouldn't be historically accurate unless Sir Handel splits the points 😁

Nice video with "Thomas Tank" like trains :)

RIP Talyllyn, They got the nicholas cage face

[@terencewilliammckenna6121]

Wow

[@nicholaswilliams1019]

Why'd Sir Handel stop on the viaduct?

[@AndreiTupolev]

Reenacting a famous scene from the books when he derails and sits down between the rails (only they didn't actually derail it)

If you run around with your eyes closed all day, you are going to fall asleep at some point...

Looks like this year it’s Rusty’s turn to visit

A shame none of the tender engines from the festiniog could come play as duke
