I never thought the day would come, but here it is; the first video to reach 1,000 likes and I can't fathom how I managed to accomplish that. This is a huge milestone and ought to be celebrated via this community post.

We also have a new #2: The Nitrogen Music Compilation has just recently beaten the HiT Music Compilation, and the first episode of Random Thomas Observations has now racked up over 20,000 views. Quite a lot of achievements and I can't be grateful enough for any of them. You always got to remember that none of this would've been possible if it wasn't for you guy.

Trust me when I'm saying this, December is going to be the craziest month for the channel EVER - stuff is yet to come, just you wait and see. If you have any guesses as to what those projects are, let me know.


That would be all from me folks - I hope you'll have an amazing winter holiday season and make sure to tune in for the next videos.

Well, it happened again.

The video has been entirely re-edited yet again and will be re-uploaded in 2 weeks... see you then.

‪@RapidoTrainsUK‬, what is going on with you guys?

How do you keep announcing one banger after the other? You've only just released the O1's and immediately announced 3, counting, THREE!!!! new and upcoming 4-4-0's.

First up, we got the Loch Class, which only makes sense after the release of the Jones Goods locos last year. It's great to finally get the chance to model this railway.

Next up we have a class that I've been wanting since FOREVER and it's just bonkers that we'll FINALLY be getting it. We only just had the announcement by Sonic Models regarding them doing the D34 Glen Class, and now we'll also be getting the D40's pretty much simultaneously. What a crazy timeline to live in. Absolutely hyped for both, you can bet your ass I'll be getting Glen Douglas and Gordon Highlander.

And lastly we'll be getting ANOTHER South Eastern loco by Rapido, the SECR G Class (which of course are just repainted D40's). Again, I'd love to own one of those at some point, they look so gorgeous in Southern colours. So many crazy announcements in such a short time, which is ironic considering what day it is... but anyway, I truly want to show Rapido my gratitude for producing those amazing models - they know what the community wants.

From the bottom of our hearts

Thank you Rapido, for everything

LET'S GOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

They've FINALLY fixed Toby's page!!! No stupid copyright infringement visible on his new model promo.

I'm so glad that a video of mine had a genuine impact!

Today I've learned that everyone prefers the Original Thomas Down the Mine Pilot over the final episode.

I have just been made aware of show creator Britt Allcroft's sudden passing.

Words cannot describe how infinitely grateful we - The Unlikely Fandom - are for the creation of our favourite franchise, Thomas the Tank Engine & Friends. This show has done so much for us in the past few decades and all the effort that was put into making the series as timeless as it is will never go unappreciated by anyone.

Our deepest condolences to the Allcroft-Wright Family.

From the bottom of our hearts: Thank you Britt, for being a Friend.

1943 - 2024

Edit: I have since created a short tribute video expressing my condolences. Be sure to check that one out as well as all the other amazing Fandom member's videos who also shared their thoughts and feelings.
