HEY GUYS I’ve not mentioned my massive Sodor map project I did for college last year check this out. got an A star in this

this one’s in the style of the London Underground map!! i am in the london underground fandom for sure

this one my teacher had multiple conversations with me about how I can’t map out a place that already exists as my project and I had to explain no no I made this image myself. there is not really a landmass there. railway lines don’t appear on google maps this zoomed out

and the finished project

i am pr wickham

pr wickham if he watched the miller era

So I gave them fankids: Lily Anne (left) is the 2x5 fankid, and Knapford (right) is the 4x22 fankid. This is their dynamic.

And because of course I did, here's Lily Anne's 3D model, which is just James' model heavily modified for the purpose of getting down her general design. :] She's an inside-cylinder 4-6-0.

Purple was a little too obvious for my taste so I went with pink from some examples of lilies. This should be more redder :'v Her white wheels are based on Rebecca's because just thought it was cool. Her nameplate is similar to those of the LBSCR like Fenchurch, Stephney, etc.

There's some obvious errors like the boiler size and smokebox, as well as the pitch of the boiler (I want it to sit lower on the running board). I keep trying to convince myself that I can make the tall funnel work but no- It needs to go.

I'm using the following as reference since she's custom:

CR 49 + 903 Classes

NS 3500 (the perfect starter base, honestly-)

GER Class S69

NER Class S

L&YR Class 8 (mandatory; also designed by George Hughes like the Class 28s)

LNWR 19inch Express Goods Class (mandatory since the L&YR was temporarily owned by the LNWR shortly before grouping)

This also includes the FR 21s and L&YR Class 28s

Knapford is a rebuilt SR West Country, though I might change out some pieces so that he has some resemblance to Gordon. I'm thinking his livery should be primarily orange or be in that range because that's the color range I associate Knapford with. Don't know why. Not like Canon!Murdoch orange (I'm making it darker and richer).

Me pulling up my map of Sodor 200000 times a minute while writing fanfic/making AU notes because I have shit memory when it comes to where and what direction certain places are on this godforsaken island:

[endoard1]

Who doesn't like a little bit of Season 1 Knapford amirite!

Production on this has been reeeaal slow as I've been doing the engines, props and sets all by myself, but god has it been fun to have all this creative freedom!!

And for those wondering, I'll likely be calling this game "Railway Series TV", as it's a hybrid of both the Television Series and The Railway Series designs.

(wip) I'm never drawing trains again bro This shit took me like 2 hours to lineart

Dear Friends, Long ago, the Fat Controller was not quite how you might know him. He was young and slim, and wouldn’t be a controller for some time, so he was simply called Mr. Hatt. Even so, he already knew his way around engines. He had even built a few himself. They were small, odd looking things called Coffee Pots, and though they didn’t look at all like the engines you know now, they did their job well, often with Mr. Hatt himself as driver. This is a story from that time long ago, when steam engines were still new, and when the Fat Controller wasn’t the Fat Controller yet, and though he wouldn’t admit it, still had much to learn. The Author

Well this took a while to write, but I'm really happy with the result. Sodor's early railways are always neat to explore. I hope you all enjoyed.

Traintober: Day 11 "Roundhouse"

"The Roundhouse"

[Vicarstown Sheds, East Sodor]

The New Diesel surveyed the shed, Algernoon sighed internally, why the hell was he chosen to show around the new engines. "So do you find the sheds to be up to your standards", Algernoon asked the new engine.

The red diesel, erupted into a loud "YES!" with excite billowing from him. Algernoon was taken aback, he had hoped the newest acquisition would not be so loud.

"Pipe down." he rumbled. The new engine, Wilson, he believed his name was subsided. "Sorry I'm just so happy to be here, ready to start work-where will be working-Perhaps a quarry?" Algernoon was beyond words. This new engine just kept talking and struggled to keep a coherent and consistent string of thoughts together.

He hoped things wouldn't get worse, then he saw Splodge approaching.

He could feel a migraine coming on.

He headed over to where some other workers were standing on the platform when he passed by a certain Stationmaster.

Roy noticed, and smiled, giving a quick wave as he passed by, which Harry awkwardly returned, nearly dropping the empty crate in the process.

He stopped.

"Hey! Would you maybe… like to have break together today?"

"I- uh- yeah! I'd like that.."

The Stationmaster's eyes lit up "great! I'll see you then."

The Workman smiled warmly in return "I'll see you then"

Watching SLOTLT:

....Okay... we need to talk about Sodor's Legend Of The Lost Treasure. Many TTTE fans love it and call it "the best special" and "the peak of CGI Thomas." But we need to face facts. It's far from everyone's favorite and actually the Most Controversial of CGI Thomas.

My stance? I say people who don't like SLOTLT are right- just for not for the valid reasons. Prepare to be roasted.

The movie heavily flanderizes Thomas and ruins his character development throughout the series. It practically takes everything that made him unlikable in the Miller era and turned him back into a complete, 100% irresponsible idiot. Take The Great Discovery, a special VERY similar in plot for example. After his trick on Stanley that demolishes the tower, he actually shows full remorse and tries to make up for his mistake.

In Lost Treasure, that is not the case. Here at the start of the movie he's just like, "I'm number one so I can do what I want!"

And it's not until THE DAY AFTER the Dynamite Incident that it finally sinks in and he's like "Aw it was my fault..."

Plus, he would've been mature enough by now not to let Gordon's teasing get to him. In Season 5, he literally tells Percy to just ignore George's insults and simply does just that.

Why are insults such a big deal to him NOW that he has to run of with Gordon's coaches and derail them??? This doesn't make sense! Yes, he is meant to be cheeky, but how the hell do we go from how he's written in Tale Of The Brave to this?!

So much dumb shit happens that could've and should have been easily avoided. The accidents Thomas cause would've have been stopped in a heartbeat if they ACTUALLY REMEMBERED drivers and firemen exist. When Thomas falls into the cavern? HOW THE HELL are they so unaware of the workmen shouting trying to stop them?! How do they not once look where he is going and see the signs?!

They're not even trying! Look at them in the cab! Up until the accident happens they're practically just chillin'! You're not fooling anybody! Are they high on crack in there??? Are they paying rent in there??? Do they just spontaneously go blind and deaf??? Hello?!?! Wake up and control your fucking train!!!

Let's cut back to the coaches. WHY is Thomas shunting Gordon's coaches when that is NOT his job anymore now that he has his branchline?! That's the whole reason the big engines went on strike and Percy was brought to the railway! Topham has HOW many shunters now? And you're SERIOUSLY gonna tell me not a single one could've done it instead? Look how empty Knapford is!

What about the Diesel Boxcab introduced this season? Why isn't he in this movie to do that instead? Did he die?

Overall, SLOTLT is just a pointless Great Discovery rehash sprinkled with stale RWS references, (which help set up this movie's god awful plot in the first place) returned characters, and cinematic visuals and music pretending it's actually a good movie with a likeable plot. Not only does it take the three-strike formula and fail miserably at making it good, (The three accidents Thomas causes) it can't even remember the show's continuity properly for God's sake! For a what's supposed to be a tribute to the RWS, this is not a good look at all, Andrew Brenner. You did not cook.

What's even worse is that for all these years everyone in this fandom just blindly glazes over everything this movie does wrong and then act like it's illegal for someone not to like it and it's disgusting. This movie single-handedly damaged the entire TTTE fandom for 10 years. 10. FUCKING. YEARS.

We already had a special that did this kind of plot so much better in every way. WHY are we doing it AGAIN??? Why wasn't The Adventure Begins enough for this year???

We did not need this. We did not need any of this shit. Just skip to Season 20 and you are not missing too much, I promise you. Peak CGI Thomas my ass. HALF the CGI specials are the least bit more deserving than this shitshow.

This movie sucks. We do not speak of it, I'm done talking about it, it's not canon, it doesn't deserve to be, it never existed. It's dead to me.

All it's got going for it are the visuals, voice acting and music, Donald, Douglas, Alfie and Oliver, Max, Monty, and Daisy returning, and the Miniature Engines introduced. That's it.

Just because a movie looks 'cinematic' does not automatically make it good.

Incorrect Ttte Quotes 400:

*Every single character that got turned into the opposite gender is standing in Knapford Station, waiting for the Fat Controller*

Madam Thedora Hatt: Enough! Enough! Okay, so we all know that the island is affected by a magical spell that changed our genders, right?

Georgia: S-SIR?!?!?!?!

Harriet: Wait, YOU GOT CHANGED INTO A WOMAN!!??

Tomine: *Gasps* You're still bald! :0

Alice: THOMAS!!!!!

Tomine: Right! Sorry....

Anthony: Well, do you have any idea how to turn us back?

Daniel: Don't be ridiculous, he doesn't have any magic!

Clarence: *Slaps Daniel in the face* Don't you insult my sister like that!!!!

Daniel: OW!!!! Oh you little-

*Daniel then jumps on Clarence as everybody tries to stop the two from fighting. Everybody is yelling at each other as everything is thrown into confusion and chaos*

Madam Theodora Hatt: Guys?? Guys?!? *Breathes in* SILENCE!!!!!!

*All of the engines and rolling stock stop and stare at Madam Theodora Hatt*

Madam Theodora Hatt: Okay, I have good news. The creator said that aside from the main quotes, crossovers, designs, the Ttte CM AU or headcanons aren't affected by the gender-changer spell.

All: Yay!!!!

Madam Theodora Hatt: Bad news. We're stuck like this for the rest of October.

All: NOOOOOO!!!!!!!!

A werid dream I had about.. a new TTTE special? + ttte special idea

The general theme about this new ttte special was fantasy and like abunch of mystical stuff happening, it starts with a new town and station and branch lines being built in this big forest on sodor, from what I remember it was like a big forest and it was separated from the rest of sodor by a river. (Probably wouldn't work in Canon but oh well!)

The opening shot begins with percy talking with STH at a new station in the forest, from what I remember percy had the mail carts for some reason, anyway all is nice and well (I don't remember what STH and percy were talking about) until donald comes flying past with a goods train, he's become a runaway and eventually he crashes near the bridge onto some rocks (he proper like, goes off the rails aswell)

I don't remember anything else than that opening scene BUT I do remember some stuff having to do with inside the forest and ruins of a castle and this one specific scene where I was near this flagpole with a red triangular flag on it, and the flagpole were on these castle ruins, also I distinctly remember one of the narrow gauge engines (sir handel I think?) In the back of the scene where donald crashes.

Overall conclusion? It would probably make a good special with some storybuilding, i call it, "mystery of the forest" , anyway onto a ttte special idea I had!

Curse of the ghost train! *creepy music*

it begins like this, one day on the blue mountain quarry, the mountain engines decide to make a memorial altar to honor proteus on the anniversary of his death, on the same day, Thomas comes to the quarry to collect some rocks and stuff, anyway he's doing just fine but then suddenly he crashes into the altar, and knock the picture of proteus over, his driver and firemen quickly put it back in its place before skarloey or anybody notices, anyways as thomas is going through knapford to head back to tidmouth, he has this feeling that something is horribly wrong/ something is watching him, and so he doesn't pay attention to the signals and bumps into duck, duck is obviously pissed at him but eventually Thomas says sorry and goes on the correct line to tidmouth, anyway as duck is heading home he also feels this really horrible sense and that something is watching him, but he ignores it.

What follows is proteus basically haunting every single engine on the island, moving trucks, making hallucinations, pushing engines into one another, and the one way to resolve this? Talk it out with the ghost before it sends sodor crumbling!

Anyway TOODLES!
