nice to see you have the rarer 1980s battery tombo set, the tombo is rather rare, and the one you have, despite missing bits, is in remarkable condition, just a pity berie and annie have got the corrosion. i'm pretty sure on the ttte wiki on the hornby page i popped something in there about it being capable to run on standard track, or was that in a video with john's amazing trains, or on twitter, i can't remember exactly where but i know ive mentioned it somewhere before when i was on my "Every Hornby Thomas Version" crusade :P if you want a decent set of wheels for A&C try tracking down some triang wheelsets, the solid axle will fit nicely in the holes and you can get various types and sizes. either way, lovely to see others excited over the hornby thomas range :P
I like everything about that set except for three things one Thomas clearly doesn't have a dome too the red wheels on any and Clarabelle make them stand out too much and three they forgot to paint some of the wheels black to resemble tires on birdie
I honestly think they just did it because they were lazy and already had existing molds and chassis for their real life counterparts. Because if so then what about Percy, Bill, Ben, and Toby who were all original tooling? Those 4 were made to fit on already existing chassis :/ but 0-4-0 Thomas is honestly amazing I wish they took the time to mod the chassis to have 6 wheels😂😂
The lack of a dome seems like a foreshadowing of the Thomas Wood engines.
Never thought I’d hear a Boondocks clip in a Thomas themed video…..

Love that season 1 styled face!
When it comes to the clockwork engines, I know my fucking clockwork engines. A fine piece of work

The battery acid on bertie is one thing but on Annie that looks like a full on wall of acid
I was expecting the set to come in its original box

2:13 to clear that up hornby tried to make their thomas model look as close as possible to the real basis
