Awww, what a cute awesome trio! I like Elliot’s style, just like me when I pull pranks.😁

I wonder what fun adventures await them?

Sudrians ganging up to literally beat the junk out of you for considering them as only English people would be sorta amusing, but also gives us a reminder:

Sodor’s ancestry of settlers weren’t just English from the Cumbrian roots, there were also Scots, Celtics, & Scandinavians.

* but, though not exactly literal, sodor IS still very seperate from the rest of the world.
* look at all the colour, the acceptance, the individuality, all things that are often taken from us by people accepting of hate (ahem)

* sodor is not just british™️. sudrians would maul you for saying that

* what's interesting about the marc forester film's proposed isekai of sodor angle is the response: i'm seeing fans reject it with "why can't they just make sodor a place in the real britain™️?!"

* i think it illustrates a misunderstanding: sodor is a place that just cannot exist

“A kid on the spectrum who gets sucked onto the Island of Sodor."
Again with the portals, 3rd time...

I don't mean to be that guy, but can't we just make the kid a citizen of Barrow-In-Furness, hop on Pip & Emma or an excursion train like the Flying Scotsman, & cross the Vicarstown bridge?

Probably an obvious choic, but I like Mervis. Her peek-a-bangs & some of the outfits she’s worn.

Railfan #1 @railfan1.bsky.social · 22h

These look great dude!

Make a wish Erma! (Owned by @4brandonjs4.bsky.social , sorry for the tag again.)

First October 2025 doodle up, and Renny's made a new black-and-white friend named Erma! I think they'd get along pretty well! 👦🫸🫷👻
