      @@FlyingFishProductions Seeing some of the damage on these props is just depressing to look at like why would they treat them like that? If me and several fans got to buy out Thomas from being analy raped by corporate Mattel, make the models again and adapt the other Railway Series to tv as there were several unadapted since season 4. Bring back Mike & Jr's music and just make it like the classics. Bring back the realism and all that watered down baby shit is not gonna fly here. Make the stuff from the other era's as logical to the revised series and don't keep pissing on the legacy of what Reverend Wilburt Audrey brought to this planet.

    I miss when Thomas and Friends was made with toy models, and Bob the Builder being made with Stop-Motion.
    Those were definitely the golden years of children’s entertainment in the modern era.

    As I watched all the classic Thomas and Friends episodes; the ones which resembled a live-action layout model table display, I found out that the characters really looked small until the show increased with bigger versions and new music and songs. The creators used drivers and firemen for most of the characters in both the live-action and CGI-animated versions of the show, but when they transitioned it to a 2D toddler cartoon, they finally scrapped them like they did in Thomas and the Magic Railroad.

    I would like to promote the creators of Thomas and Friends to redo the entire show with all the characters not having any firemen or drivers in their cabs, accidents or derailing crashes. If they agree on that, the faltered deliveries can be successful and the characters will move like they're doing it all by themselves, some narrative word lines can be altered, some song lyrics can also be altered, some characters that didn't appear in the CGI-animated continuum can do the appearance, the Runaway Theme can be used for more chases, some hazards can be spared, more rescues and problem solvings can be summoned, all the character models can be cloned for fun use by others, full-size versions of them by the same shapes of the models can be created for fun train rides and the people can actually be cartoons for the classic episodes in the style of the bee that got burned by James and stung him for payback. The show will still be based on the books by the Reverend W. Awdry if they got changed and it was surprising and a little funny for one episode of the show to resemble Charles Dickens' A Christmas Carol!

      Some were sold off to collectors who post them on Twitter and private collectors, some were given to crew members who worked on the show after the end of the model series in 2008. Some were moved to Canada at Nitrogen studios but I believe many if not all have moved since. Some were put in the Drayton Manor museum in England, and the Hara railway museum in Japan. Some were thrown away, and there's a fair chunk in Mattel's storage to this day.

    If vehicles have faces in the Thomas universe, why do some like Sir Topham Hatt’s car not have one. A common question.
    It suggests to me that perhaps they are given faces during their production. But it begs the question, would that make those without faces sentient and conscious with no way to communicate or express themselves?
    Perhaps the faces grow or just appear on vehicles with consciousness. If so does that make faceless vehicles brain dead? Or are they stunted in some way.
    The trains gain faces when they enter Sodor in The Magic Railroad. While I understand why most people prefer to forget the film, if a sentient train gains a face when it enters Sodor, does that not suggest that the faceless vehicles are brain dead.
    And if sentient trains exist in our world without faces, how do they feel? They can’t talk or laugh or cry. If I were them, I would surely scream in mental anguish if I only had a mouth.
