Let's try this one last time | Bi🏳️‍🌈 | 27 | Official Ferroequinologist at Dovetail Games | One with the Force | Plane nerd | Views are my own | Location: Sector 11374265
Our Favourite Little Engine is now available in @trainsimworld.com !!! 😁🥳

What a momentous occasion, seeing this actually be a thing is incredible, a childhood brought back to life 💙

Immensely proud we could do this 🚂

I am so buying some 375s, it has to be done!

Anyone else going to the greatest gathering? What days are you going? 😄

I'm trying to not get overwhelmed by overthinking how I get there etc 😂

As a side note to Hornby's announcements, I am very intrigued as to what the Rail200 livery will look like in 395015 (and RIP to the "full" 10th anniversary livery I assume)

Probably would've made more sense on 395025 but hey ho 😄
January 14, 2025 at 11:16 AM
Hornby know how to get me, releasing another 395 is just cheating 😂 I'm keen to get a couple other bits too

I want the VEP, but I also want Bachmann's CEP, I don't know if I can justify getting both 🥲

Not even sure why I bother sometimes. Almost 4 years waiting for KR Models' Leader, and faced with a mess in the post today... A dodgy handrail, snapped off details, broken packaging, and a first for a OO gauge mishap, the bogies weren't aligned!

Bogies and handrail fixed thus far, but poor show...

Something something "not done trains related thing all year" post 😂

I haven't said much on here recently, but I want to wish everyone a happy new year! I've not really had the energy to do the things I've wanted to do in the past few weeks, I'm still sitting on a huge trainspotting video to edit, and been consciously having a break from simming for a proper reset...

When Hornby announced PlayTrains, there was praise for targeting the younger market in some way, getting kids into trains early

When Rapido announced Ivor the Engine, it was celebrated as being a nostalgic win despite not having a home on any layout

These projects are allowed to exist, 'nuff said.

Remember folks, in life, don't let others ruin things for you. Time is limited in this messy world and it can't hurt to have some fun now and then. Be proud of you are, what you enjoy and what you achieve, those experiences don't need to be validated by others if they're constantly unapproving.

I'm now off until the new year, time for rest and festive fun! I am exhausted... On top of work I've been redoing my room with new furniture and all sorts, it'll be nice to sit down and not think about any of that lol

Maybe if I get time I could even crank out a video or two 😄

I do like me an anniversary, and today makes me feel old - Southeastern Highspeed officially commenced on 13th Dec 2009, and I cannot understate how much of an impact the Class 395s and the service they provide have had on my life. I've loved it ever since the first thrill of travelling at 140mph 🚄
December 13, 2024 at 10:14 AM
So uhhh, I accidentally opened Vegas (it's pinned on the taskbar) and discovered that I have a video half-edited from back in May that I COMPLETELY forgot about 😅😂

If I were to finish it up, and add even more footage, who wants a SUPER long trainspotting extravaganza to close out the year? 😄

Going to see Wicked for the 2nd time, and this time, it's gonna be on the biggest screen 💚🩷

I just wish there was a more appropriate ad on the outside 😅

As 395028 crawls into Strood on a Ramsgate-bound service, I find myself in disbelief that 395008 ended up damaged again last night.. I still remember the day it hit a van in 2017. I hope it's able to be fully repaired in good time 😢🤞
November 29, 2024 at 2:58 PM
Out on the rails, the joys of a half day 😄
November 29, 2024 at 2:43 PM
Saw Wicked this evening, loved it! Not only is it fantastic to put such detailed visuals into my head, giving everything more context, but the FEELS, I experienced every emotion. And, I am amazed that it didn't feel too long, part of me was concerned about part 1/part 2, but it's fleshed out so well

A bit of Train Sim World 5 driving from the past couple evenings 😄
November 19, 2024 at 11:25 PM
Scenario creation is underway...
November 16, 2024 at 11:35 PM
I have purchased the 4MT Standard Tank for Train Sim, now for the errr... "fun" part, trying to make a scenario 🫠
November 14, 2024 at 8:40 PM
I realise I haven't posted much on here, been rather busy and tired to focus on documenting anything I've been upto 😅 Hopefully I can find the time for it as I do like sharing things
November 14, 2024 at 4:53 PM
Let's look on the bright side of today...

Bachmann announced Snodland signal box as part of their winter scenecraft range, so I'll definitely be buying that.

Planet Coaster 2 is out later, good for escapism.

Other than that, well, shit

After an incredibly stressful journey into London, it's time to go West 😁🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿

Electrostar hype

Very slippy and slidy on the rails this morning 🍂

Awake before 6 am... that can only mean one of 2 things: existential crisis or trains!

Thankfully, it's the latter. A fun journey awaits 👀🚄
