Bachmann could’ve done something like this for Legend of the Lost Treasure, and it’s a real shame they didn’t. Come to think of it, both of these brands also released a metallic Thomas for the 70th anniversary of the RWS, but Bachmann went and added extra decorations to it that cluttered the beauty it would’ve had otherwise (in my opinion). At least we got an LBSC green Thomas model.

[@Loudx1]

Another model video? Hell yeah!

[@ItsTrainBoy]

You know it homie!! :)

[@JohnBoyAdvance]

Imagine if there was a way for Hornby to price the Thomas range more... realistically? Because parents were going to spend £100 plus on Gordon with no coaches.

[@frogmouth2]

Pog Thomas. Pogas if you will.

thats a GREAT layout did you do a tour of it?

[@trainstorm1225]

Absolutely love the story behind this guy and I always enjoy you telling me about him! A model from a loved one is always so special! 💙✨

[@Soopy44]

That’s honestly pretty cool.

[@xl5fan]

FUN FACT: this isn’t the ONLY Thomas with that face, it was also sold separately as an exclusive to the retain chain ‘Modelzone’ in 2010 as part of the franchise’s 65th anniversary. However, the model does not come with mud/weathering. In fact this model I’m referring to is probably more rare than this version…

[@akira5506]

completely understand the feeling of wanting hornby stuff as a kid, it was unobtainable when ur like 12 and don't have a credit card or anything. those older ebay shipping prices were way worse too

[@ItsTrainBoy]

It’s so weird how the prices have fluctuated now man, some are cheaper than they used to be back then and now some are triple- 😭 If there’s anyone you can count on matching the vibe it’s Akira every time 💪

[@ShiningTimeStudios475]

​@TrainBoy Thomas should've come with more trucks other than Annie and Clarabel

I don't have many model trains so this is how I feel the experience. Thanks Trainboy!

[@Eai5038]

Honey trainboy made a new video

Hey trainboy

[@Eai5038]

I've been trying to ask you would you make a model of what you would look like in Thomas and friends

[@SierraRail3Prod]

@@Eai5038 would probably be a lancashire 27 or a J50 (GNR)

You know, you could always try putting some chain-link couplings and sprung buffers on those trucks.

You Lucky boy. EDIT, hornby,s ttte range exept hornby Edward is just a little off. But I liked how the range were realistic takes. Shame it's been Discontinued

[@Deuce_and_a_half]

As an American you always wanted the British Hornby Thomas because it looked different but as a Brit I really want a Bachman Thomas as their Thomas range is just sooo much more accurate to the TV series. Except Percy, I prefer the Hornby Percy his tank shape is nicer to me than Bachman’s more rounded approach. If only it didn’t have the weird gaps in the tanks from that separate piece.

[@agentozark2494]

Thomas looks shocked, he probably saw Mattels plot

[@mistermadmachine6311]

You know that reminds me have you kept any of your other old models?

[@the25thdoctor]

Your latest videos gives a weird adult swim vibe, really weird but enjoyable.

[@Steamer96]

2:41 Correction: Bachmann's Thomas is made in China.

[@Jude-72]

Don't lie man you were just trying to flex your rare Thomas.

Great Discovery is my favret thomas movie cus it came out of the year i was born (2008) and when i saw that from the pass i really wanted it

[@donaldscottishengine]

i never liked hornby, i'd even go far enough to say i hate it, but this little guy is great.

[@falsum6913]

that song in the intro while you were on the train was an absolute banger source?

[@vatonix84]

I have one of these, I got it cheap since the drive gear was like melted and I fixed it. Are they rare or something?

[@SkyMelon-wc1fx]

I have one but the chassis needs to be fixed

nice!

[@lukechristmas3951]

No doubt about it. I am still interested in acquiring this Hornby set. The Great Discovery had some pretty good merchandise and this Hornby set is one of the best. And since Bachmann didn't make one, what's going to stop us from making our own? I'd like to try a mud-weather a Bachmann Thomas, Annie, Clarabel and a couple of trucks.

[@trains.by.leonhard]

Absolutely love this model especially the face. And it's the only Model from the Hornby TTTE Range I got myself

[@thysmugbastard]

Any chance you can modify it to have a white runningboard? Sorry, I’m kind of a detail freak. Of something isn’t accurate, it annoys me for the rest of time (I.e how Bachmann Thomas doesn’t have a red rectangle on the back of his coal bunker)

[@quoogynuts]

Unlike other special models this one is just special from where it has been and where it is now
