Ladies & Gentlemen, I would like to proudly present, the Thomasfied character design of Zany Buster. A character based on the story that I'd wrote.

Here is some of the facepack and model reference sheets that I'd done.

Whenever I look at this LGB Denver, South Park & Pacific mogul, it reminded me of the Battery Operated Rio Grande Train from Scientific Toys that I used to play with around the Christmas tree when I was a little kid.

I love the eye-catching Christmas colours.

There’s always something lovely about the colour of Maroon on trains like the Alton Limited. It always seemed to excite me and stimulate the neurons of my brain that I just have to love it.

The colour always reminded me of Lady from Thomas and the Magic Railroad.

This is the book that I once used to own when I was a kid!

If sugar is bad for Diesel 10, then I’m sure he’ll be okay with processed foods. They can be metabolized in diesel engines as good as burning oil, like an air fryer. Lol

All the Proteus models on the table. Including @ee93.bsky.social’s gigantic wooden railway Proteus.

I went all the way back at the wall to meet the Terminally Thomas Group for the first time. It was a great pleasure seeing this impressive Tomy layout. And I’d made a very good first impression meeting the team.

The first thing I saw when walking my way into the Greenberg Train Show is this live steam engine that sorta looked like an Australia or South African engine.

Does anybody know what kind of steam engine this is? If you know what it is, shoot a comment down below.

And now, here is I Love Toy Trains 3 as a fan made UK boxart release. I decided to do the back cover a little bit differently this time.

Here is I Love Toy Trains Part 2 for the UK release.

My custom boxart cover of I Love Toy Trains part 1 as a UK release. I didn’t like how the ILTT cover actually looks from the UK release. So I wanted to make it more professional by making it look like it would distributed under TM’s partnership deal with VCI during the late 90’s.

Dan Zanes, former Del Fuegos member and children’s musician, had made a guest appearance in a Dragon Tales video: Let’s Start A Band.

But wouldn’t it be cool if he was a guest in a Thomas project too? Like either appearing himself or maybe make a train song about it? I’d be a happy boy.

I’ve bought more Thomas 80th anniversary toys from Walmart.

During Halloween, here’s one of my favorite Arthur episodes called Fernkenstein’s Monster.

Because it shows Fern, who is a sweet and adorable puppy on the surface, can really have a dark and morbid side hidden beneath her.

Her tone of storytelling gives me that S5 Alec Baldwin of Thomas vibes.

Have a Happy Halloween folks!
