Introducing Senja/Bruhstation’s latest passion project:

🚂 💝Casa Tidmouth: Love Train💝 🚂

Welcome to the Island of Sodor! As the O’Jays say: The next stop that we make will be England! Now that you’re now an employee of the North Western Railways, you can finally experience your lifelong dream of romancing your dream engine (driver) on this small, quaint island!

Romanceable characters include:

Thomas

Percy

James

Edward

Henry

Gordon

Duck

Diesel

... and so many more!

There are tons of things to do in this game, like listening to the charming rambles of your dream date, getting lunches with them, hang out after work with them, and even give them gifts! The more you spend time with them, the more your character stats and character romance points will go up, and the higher the chances of them ending up with you!

But watch out! One wrong turn, and you could spiral down a railroad towards a more sinister, more complicated love life...

Coming soon to itch.io! I hope you guys look forward to this game, and thank you for all of your support! 💞🚂

Oh dear.

I often wonder about the crews of the rws/ttte universe and what they're like and how they handle the shit their engines pull especially in specials where like. Really insane things happen.

For instance. Does Frankie and Hurricane kidnapping Thomas also count as them kidnapping his crew. can the fat controller sue the steelworks and its employees for trapping his employees as well as his engines. Many such cases.

[steam-beasts]

Small JBS rant/hot take;

I'm sorry but there's NO WAY Thomas wasn't traumatised from what Frankie and Hurricane did to him.

I like Frankie and Hurricane as villians or even redeemed villians, but I hate that they got away scot-free with what they did to Thomas because they were "lonely". They literally took advantage of him and took away his freedom. What's worse is that I think the steelworks employees were in on it too, so probably not even Thomas's crew could do anything.

Update on the page I’m doodling (so happy!!!)

Particularly one character that the tugs fandom fawned over (I see you guys (˵ ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°˵)) and Henry (my beloved)!

(leans in with a closer shot of hercules, you know who you are, you’re not immune to him and thirsty for him!!!! MUHAHAHAHAHAH-)

*gets sniped out of existence*

I find it hilarious that I don't ship most of the mainstream TTTE ships. I'm practically the queen of rare pairs.

Sonny x Rebecca? Ship it. Frankie x Hurricane? Ship it. Boco x Edward? DEFINITELY ship it. Y'all can keep your James x Edward and Gordon x Henry. They're all fine and dandy. But you can pry these rare pairs from my cold dead hands.🤣🤣🤣

Ttte AU Fan kids Part 2

Ok so guess the ship part two. Although the last one only her dad is cannon, her mum was an oc/npc/random BR Class 37.

Top to Bottom:

Lillie: She is the first-born NG on Sodor. The other NG's call her Princess when she's up at the BMQ. She is always looking for something new to do, or a riot to cause.

Mark: "He's much smaller than any of the others I've had..."-Marion. Mark is easy going and generally quiet, unless you start talking about dinosaurs; then he can talk for hours.

Treasure and Neptune: Treasure is at this point non-verbal; she much prefers to stay beside her mum or dad. Neptune on the other hand wants to go explore and live the life of adventure. Why tell stories when you can live them?

Wish: She was born on the mainland under the BR, but when her mum passed her dad had to find someone to help. Being a Class 37, her engine sound often confuses others... Even Terance thought she was a tractor.

[1971]

“Look! Look!”

“What am I looking at- oh.”

The two saddle tanks gazed beyond the fence at the perimeter, at the deer grazing in the underbrush.

“Beautiful, isn't it…?”

“Yeah. Kind of like-”

A deafening horn made the two jump and the deer flee in terror.

“You two!” A commanding voice boomed. “Back to work!”

“Frankie!” One of the saddle tanks called over. “You missed it! There was a family of deer just beyond the fen-”

“The wildlife can wait. You have shunting to do. Both of you. I expect the ladle trucks cleaned out, and Hurricane's next steel train ready and waiting when he gets back to collect it.”

Leaving no room for questions nor complaints, Frankie strode briskly away.

The two saddle tanks followed suit, both more than a little annoyed.

[steam-beasts]

Here's something that always nagged at me; before I began watching JBS again, I had a few tidbit memories of it and I could've sworn that Hurricane had a scar across his face and a cloudy eye.

When I watched the movie again, I was honestly surprised that he didn't. This isn't some fan interpretation of mine, I genuinely thought he had a scar. Mandela effect, I guess?

[spc-rambles]

I adore the steelworks gang, like more than I've seen other people express online.

First of all...

My little icon Lexi.

They have been known and initially regarded for their silly voices and jolly nature but I don't often see people looking into why they do it. Like their voices make them more wild than Marion who's generally loved by some fans but they also do it in spite of themselves. They and Theo did an entire upbeat song about how much they are failures to railway engineering with lyrics like:

"We're experiments gone bad

in other words whoever designed us must be mad."

These are not the words of someone with self esteem in how funny they are! They even showed them actually depressed when saying 'We can't do anything.' for the final time in the special.

And anyone who knew how long it took for more in-your-face LGBT+ representation in 2018 She-Ra will know that if this special just came out three or four years later, we might've had proper gender-fluid Lexi representation.

As for Theo...

He is still a pure little bean and I feel the ambiguity of his design makes it all the more reason for him to feel bad about his design. I don't know what about his design warranted gigantic cogs on his sides but we don't know what went on in whatever workshop he was built at. For all we know he could've had the Henry treatment, having been dumped on the doorstep on the first desperate railway executive needed an engine, as a last ditch effort for a dying manufacturer.

As for him being on the spectrum, I can still see it in his behaviour. Lexi was truly not gender fluid but once you've met one autistic person, you've met one autistic person.

And some characteristics are visible in him.

His unintentional bluntness. "Are you being scrapped?"

His tics and stutters.

His shakes in excitement, if you were to count it as stimming.

And who's to say he's not limited to physical disabilities? He and Lexi, depending on how successful you can view it having designs as unique as them on British rails, are the perfect ones to have given the body language they were adamant on giving all the engines back then.

Him being so gentle and anxious is generally adorable, so yeah, not so much to say about his actual personality.

Speaking of not much to say, not much to say on Merlin either, at least nothing that people haven't said already. We all know how awesome he is.

Beresford is MY MAN!

Beresford just wants a friend guys. He said in his own song that he was always ignored by engines who just want to get a job done. No time to chat with him. Loneliness can drive him mad. It is kinda sad that his appearance in Royal Engine was not only a sign of the further appearances these characters could've had but how it was also kinda a rehash of the scene we got in his last appearance, so maybe an episode of his own where he learnt to make friends properly would've been fun.

Ah well, at least he got some friends in another life.

And what can I say about Hurricane?

Keeping it real, working with steel.

Since 1902

He is such a chill guy, that while his companion might've had a lot of hard labour in mind for Thomas, he seems so genuine in wanting to take Thomas in while still acknowledging his terrible position. He could've done with standing up to Frankie though. But whatever, that's meant to be a part of his character, and he was voiced by the chad Jim Howick no less.

It's so funny when people say he sounded like a member of the royal family when he's played kings before.

And then there's Frankie.

Oh my god I adore her so much. Her manipulation being legitimately intimidating at the best times, especially when she's actually chasing Thomas down in the dead of night, her musical style bribing him into working for her, her VA's performance capturing all of her personality through line delivery perfectly.

Everything about her class, her demeanour, most of her lines makes me so curious about her whole life.

How is she running this steelworks better than the human manager of the works if there even is one? How are the human workmen so ok with her doing this? How did the other engines before Thomas get into doing her work? How did they get out? How did Hurricane stay with her for this long, let alone not encourage some potential friends of his to work with her? Was she indirectly responsible for Hurricane surviving as long as he did to still be a tank engine after she was built? Why didn't the railways surrounding this fictional steelworks not agree with this most likely non-existent human manager not just agree to get a lot of their engines to transport steel from their works? What did Frankie do? What are you hiding from us!?

The whole mystery surrounding her and her apparently feeling put-down and apparently not evil at heart according to her character profile and her role in the book 'Delivery at the Docks' makes her potential crimes such a goldmine for story potential that I really want to delve into very soon.

And yeah, that's what I have to say on them in canon. All beautiful characters that I feel need more recognition on a regular basis.
