Bachmann announced FLYING SCOTSMAN for the OO Thomas range. Like, WHAT? Holy crap! I definitely did not see that coming!

The Talyllyn Railway revealed new faces for "Skarloey" and "Rheneas", completing the 7 main engines!
Richard Awdry (son of Christopher Awdry) has apparently taken over from his father as the lore keeper for the Railway Series, and has revealed some new developments on Sodor in the 2020s at Awdry Extravaganza 5: -Richard Hatt is now Controller, succeeding Stephen. -Coal was discovered near Tidmouth, giving Sodor a coal resource. Sodor notably never had its own coal mine in the books' canon and imported it all in - and now it does! -The North Western DID buy an Austerity saddle tank, and it helped construct the long-proposed Harwick extension to meet a new nuclear power plant in Ballaswein. A lot to take in there!
Thomas' 80th just gets crazier and crazier. What are all your thoughts on these reveals?
