The massive surge of tomy/trackmaster/plarail content on the channel is something I really enjoy, it’s great to see someone so passionate about this great line
The memories came flooding back as you revealed the station. I had this as a kid! The switch at the station to keep the engine in the air and stationary fascinated me for hours on end as a little guy. Thanks for the memories!
it feels surreal that i mentioned this exact thing in the vintage tomy video and now you have it in this video. i never got to own this set but i did have the generic tomy engines and rolling stock. always a pleasure to look through the catalogue. i know for a fact that Gordon exists because i bought his tender from a jumble sale, if you could find more it would make me very happy to see them.
Oh my god ! I still have this Thomas set in my house ! I got it as a kid 20+ years ago!!! Plus the Percy!! I also have the expansion pack of the bridge and logging station. That I think was paired with another pack that had a diesel engine
I remember having Gordon & driver from this range, and he used to run on my TOMY track alongside my regular Trackmaster Thomas trains, which looked very odd considering the huge size difference! This has brought back a lot of happy memories though.
I had this as a kid, if I remember the stickers came off kind of easily! Was fun to put with my other nondescript Tomy stuff and have it run about the house, massive memory unlocked
Wow! How I’m Gods name did your friend find something so old and pretty hard to find in good shape with the box not to mention 20 bucks is a steal! Great review and video!
Had some of those track pieces in a box of track we had, the station too. No idea where Thomas, Annie, Clarabel, the bricks for the station and the stop piece went, but nice to see they kept it universal until TM released in 2008/09
Also I love the reverse switch under the engine, cause there were pieces of track that look like the piece you have at the station, but had a diagonal line on them to switch the engine in reverse automatically!
These older Tomy models have such a nice charm to them shame we don't have stuff like this nowadays. Also I never realised these could go forwards and backwards, more reason for me to love these
I've had this stuff in childhood and recently recollected some of it now. Currently I have Thomas, Henry, Gordon, James, Annie, Clarabel and the Troublesome Trucks.
I've lived in Pennsylvania almost my whole life. The fact that this state has kept up a heritage railroad for so long without destroying every engine they have is a fucking miracle.
Old Tomy actually had a few block-based bits and pieces, some pieces of track, sheds, etc had elements practically interchangeable with mega blox and lego, you can see what I mean on the station piece.
a- yooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo. dat mustash on point my boi
Isn't Elsbridge that station Thomas would often meet the main line engines at in the early seasons? I don't think it ever appeared from season 5 onwards, which is a shame.
I guess every engine of the Thomas and Friends multiverse has been in at least one accident. I say that since 475 did appear a few times during TATMR making it unofficially part of the TTTE multiverse.
OK I need t know how old you are cause that this the TOMY Thomas that I Had when I was little, Though it was from my older brother. those magnet couplings take Me back as well as the Driver figure. But thanks for the trip to happier times.
This gives me a lot of pain cause I LITERALLY HAD A ANNIE AND CLARABELLE OF THIS SET, LIKE I RANDOMLY HAD EM BUT I THREW THEM SINCE THEY WERE UNFORTUNATELY DAMAGED
You my friend got yourself a steel for that price. These old vintage Tomy Engine's are hard to find let alone in good condition. I only know about these thanks to a user by the name of Ucwepn who manned to track down everyone in the range and has videos showcasing them on his channel. Highly recommend checking out his stuff especially his customs videos.
I’ve always been a Tomy guy lowkey 🤣 The models are very much still happening too just not as frequently I guess? I’m more just letting inspiration take me where it takes me haha
The massive surge of tomy/trackmaster/plarail content on the channel is something I really enjoy, it’s great to see someone so passionate about this great line
Same. It’s actually inspired me to get all my stuff out of storage.
This is really cool, idk know about this older type of stuff and also it’s cool how it is adaptable with Lego😮
I’m still not sure if it’s Lego or Mega-Bloks sadly?? Either way it’s so fun to see, that’d be an awesome Plarail set 🤣
@@ItsTrainBoy Its with Lego, Leokimvideo had some of these and they were compatible with Lego
@@ItsTrainBoy the line Thomas was in was called Tomy trains
The memories came flooding back as you revealed the station. I had this as a kid! The switch at the station to keep the engine in the air and stationary fascinated me for hours on end as a little guy. Thanks for the memories!
Another piece of Tomy history and nostalgia you have captured 💙
I wasn't even born in the time this came out, but man, watching this video had me relive a large part of my childhood
I had that set. Got it for my 4th birthday. It was a proud moment of my life as it was the first ever Thomas set that I got in my life.
it feels surreal that i mentioned this exact thing in the vintage tomy video and now you have it in this video.

I had a tomy set from around the same era. The gears on the rear wheels were to help climb a steeper incline piece. pretty neat

I wish we knew more about Tomy Trains.

Love that set. I have all the other engines for it and they still run great and look amazing for what they were.
Wow! How I’m Gods name did your friend find something so old and pretty hard to find in good shape with the box not to mention 20 bucks is a steal! Great review and video!
He has his ways of finding things from time to time
@@Tyler-zi6tz Ok now you replying to Me is something I did not expect..
I have very fond memories of this line. My freind had everything in the set and we would build massive layouts.
A fine addition to the collection
ohhh big nostalgia for me for me, I had this set along with percy when I was little
Even though 475 committed SF Toby…our big man here has a amazing review to cheer us up! Loved this set review!
Had some of those track pieces in a box of track we had, the station too. No idea where Thomas, Annie, Clarabel, the bricks for the station and the stop piece went, but nice to see they kept it universal until TM released in 2008/09
I mentioned these in a recent video of yours, I love that you've looked into Tomy's OG sets that I grew up with!
Also I love the reverse switch under the engine, cause there were pieces of track that look like the piece you have at the station, but had a diagonal line on them to switch the engine in reverse automatically!
These older Tomy models have such a nice charm to them shame we don't have stuff like this nowadays. Also I never realised these could go forwards and backwards, more reason for me to love these
Yesss these are the Tomy Thomas's I grew up with.
My kid now plays with them. I've got Gordon and James too
@TrainBoy I think your comments are getting spammed my dude.
I Remember this Set, It looks Awesome.😃
Oh my gosh I actually had this set when I was a kid!
I agree, Tomy was my favorite, idk why I guess the its looks
Neat review on a neat item! 😄
Awesome video trainboy congratulations on finding a rare Thomas item
wow , thats realy so cool i never even see that in my whole life
I've had this stuff in childhood and recently recollected some of it now.
Currently I have Thomas, Henry, Gordon, James, Annie, Clarabel and the Troublesome Trucks.
I've lived in Pennsylvania almost my whole life. The fact that this state has kept up a heritage railroad for so long without destroying every engine they have is a fucking miracle.
holy crap... I HAD ONE OF THESE as a child.
I had the James model of this and I miss it every day. 😢
Strasburg unboxes the smokebox of 475
Trainboy, my man unboxes some vintage TTTE
Coincidence?
I think *NOT*
i love this range, i’ve got thomas, james and a weird mish-mash of gordon and henry
This is one of a kind Unique Set
I remember these growing up. Had tons of them. It is compatable with lego and the body's also come away from the chassis.
Great video! :) love the set!
Very nice man
Okay this set here is the one I had! ahhhh so long ago
I agree with you,tomy is best
My cousin used to have this Thomas and some of the track and I found it in a old box of his old Thomas toys
Thank you TrainBoy!!
The Little Dude is the best part of the entire Tomy range ever
Old Tomy actually had a few block-based bits and pieces, some pieces of track, sheds, etc had elements practically interchangeable with mega blox and lego, you can see what I mean on the station piece.
Love the video
Yes
Great video mate, hope you had an awesome Halloween. 👌
That Thomas and a motorized skarloey would look in scale with each other I think.
GUYS WAKE TF UP TRAINBOY UPLOADED
a- yooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo.
dat mustash on point my boi
Rest in peace 475 get well soon
I had that one in thomas percy and james with rails when i was like 4 or 5 but i lost them all when we moved
I’ve seen this Thomas on the 50 years of T&Fs trainset cutaway.
Glad Mattel went back to this prototype tomy for AEG lol
Amazing video
Isn't Elsbridge that station Thomas would often meet the main line engines at in the early seasons?
I don't think it ever appeared from season 5 onwards, which is a shame.
The weird gear wheels used in the 1996 Thomas is gonna be used for the new plarail AEG toys
I guess every engine of the Thomas and Friends multiverse has been in at least one accident. I say that since 475 did appear a few times during TATMR making it unofficially part of the TTTE multiverse.
You almost look like my plug and I was like "why is he doing a toy review?"
😭 Off that Tomy pack
There was a special piece of track that would knock the reverse switch underneath automatically.
I have a working 2009 hit toys Douglas, that I bought when I was 3. I wanted a Donald. I never found him though
Nice. Also you look like a Breaking Bad character
wow epic video
I like how it's compatible with lego
I was sick so I had no clue you uplo
OK I need t know how old you are cause that this the TOMY Thomas that I Had when I was little, Though it was from my older brother. those magnet couplings take Me back as well as the Driver figure. But thanks for the trip to happier times.
But let’s be honest this guy looks like a true gigachad with that jawline gifted by Jesus Christ himself #Gigatrainboy
Dang you look like Vin Diesel in the thumbnail 🥶🥶😍😍💀💀😱😱
Yaaa it’s the little dude
Wait, what hapoened at strasburg?
Wish i had that 😥
Am I hearing that motor correctly while it's running? It sounds like he's chuffing when you run him. At least in forward.
This gives me a lot of pain cause I LITERALLY HAD A ANNIE AND CLARABELLE OF THIS SET, LIKE I RANDOMLY HAD EM BUT I THREW THEM SINCE THEY WERE UNFORTUNATELY DAMAGED
What if you got the dean goods and extended the front to look like James?
Nah I’m good 🤣
How did you get that
I had James and Edward. Have since been lost. Now i cant find them online
6:30 actually it's somewhat accurate to the show.
I made a custom Proto-Tomy Toby since Tomy didn’t make him, probably making a video on him soon if you wanna see him!
I’m hyped
Train boy I just the saw the crash and holy shit that smoke box door got mlg I think we should declare war on bob the builder
This was the original Tomy railway before Toluca World, too bad not many people in the fandom talk about these retro items.
I had that same set. Still do I think.
my granpa gave me one of those in GREAT condishon
You my friend got yourself a steel for that price. These old vintage Tomy Engine's are hard to find let alone in good condition.

Ucwepn was a goat for the tomy/plarail scene loved all his showcases for the models, I miss his content though 😢
Holy
475 went out like Toby in sodor fallout
layout vid?
This is egregious of me, but AEG motorized reminds me of this. This is still miles better tho
Ya know, now that you mention it I can see it?
My thoughts and prayers go to strasburg 475
Lol I completely forgot these existed
Can you get a Tomy Henry or a Tomy Oliver
Did you just turn from a HO/OO model trains guy into a Tomy guy? 😂
I’ve always been a Tomy guy lowkey 🤣
The models are very much still happening too just not as frequently I guess? I’m more just letting inspiration take me where it takes me haha
Yea you can be both I suppose. :)
I used to have that
"Here we see what is somewhat ancient toy civilization."
if all engines go was modern with classic thomas
Gives off duplo vibes
👌 that’s all I gotta say
le' tomaz 🤣
I have the track to make Thomas go back and forth
I think I saw that protomy (proto tomy) Thomas in 10 years of thomas
7:59 you said play rail instead of tomy
Isn’t plarail made by tomy???
