    13:12 This must be what Henry used to use! In the episode "Coal," in one of the closeups, you can see blue livery underneath Henry's tender paint showing through.

      are you saying gauge 1 models are 00 gauge?

    • @darealliam4421
      @darealliam4421 Рік тому

      gauge 1 models are the models used in the show
      oo gauge models are the ones in this video
      the shot in "coal" was a large scale model I'm not sure of its gauge but its the largest gauge for a prop in the show
      onemanarmy you're mistaking the large scale models with the oo gauge models in the video.
      isaiah you are mistaking gauge 1 with oo.

    Well done! These models are fantastic. Or, in some cases, going to be.
    Although they're all great, I do like the Stepney and the First Thomas a wee bit better than the others.
    I do hope you'll do Douglas nonetheless.

    i have a complete Stewart Reidpath body (with the funnel) sat here doing nothing. I bought it, a while ago, out of curiosity. I've no idea of what it's supposed to be a model of, most likely a Southern Railways 0-6-0T of some description. I did plan to make a chassis for it, but too many other incomplete projects to deal with.
    If you want it for your original Thomas project, you can have it.

    I have been working on the Rev W Awdrys model of James as well but before I start to modify it I need to re-solder some of the wires .
    So far the body is a tri-ang 3F but sadly there is a crack going down the cab
    the tender is a white metal kit as it more detailed than the tri-ang one and was cheeper
    the chassie has got some pick ups taken from a tri-ang Brittania .
    I hope you have fun trying to reprecate the Rev Awdrys models ! :)

  • @MixtapeF035
    @MixtapeF035 4 роки тому

    A while back, I ordered a princess class to make Gordon. The loco has arrived but I’m waiting for my order for the correct chassis and 3f tender. I’m gonna build Gordon too. Just let me know when your build begins and I’ll be right behind you.

    There is or was a spare Thomas made out of a jinty?? I never knew that! I thought the first spare model is the e2

    • @WhitehouseFilms
      @WhitehouseFilms  4 роки тому +1

      No, the E2 model came during the early 80's when Hornby brought it out. The Jinty came around the late 60's when the MrkII layout of Ffarquhar was made. Till then the Stewart Reidpath model took the role of Thomas.

I was the freight car master. we use air brakes here instead of vacuum brakes. also we use couplers not chain links. you can check out my real world pictures of American Railways at work on Flickr if you search Benjamin Lahrman.
