Well, that was fun! 😎

If you need more ideas for future videos, you could draw images based on merch that never appeared in the TVS (Take-n-Play, Trackmaster) and try to base a story from them?

Like the 'Spills and Thrills' or 'Sodor Blackout' ranges?

Edward the Blue Engine and Duke the Narrow Gauge Engine are at Crovan's Gate Sheds. Both engines look concerned about something.

Trucks on both Narrow Gauge and Standard Gauge are spread across the sidings.

Rusty the Narrow Gauge Diesel is travelling home with some slate trucks. It is night time.

Rusty has noticed that the hedge is growing so thick it is almost covering the track next to him. He looks concerned.

Edward the Blue Engine and James the Red Engine are shunting trucks at Wellsworth station.

James looks very annoyed. Edward can't help but smile.

“Shunting for a ‘slow goods’ train indeed – it’s ridiculous!”
“You’re never happy are you, James?”

Bill and Ben the Saddletank Twins and Mavis the Quarry Diesel are at Ffarquhar Quarry.

Bill and Ben are standing either side of Mavis, wearing very cheeky grins. Mavis looks very tired / fed up.

Dear Friends,

Henry has been feeling glum. The other engines were teasing him for his crash with the Flying Kipper.

To cheer Henry up I decided to make him the focus of my newest poster, to show everyone how strong and capable he really is.

Yours,
The Artist

Welp, I did it again...I decided to give these stories yet another rewrite. And ended up adding several new ones at the same time!

So now -- hopefully -- I feel more confident with this latest batch. Let me know what you think 🙂

A quick scribble of Reg, the Foxfield Railway's new mascot. Been meaning to do a scribble since I first saw the video on YT, such a charming character. 👌

🌼 Alf in the daffodils.

A splash of spring sunshine and a little diesel charm, even Alf knows this is a wonderful time of year on the Talyllyn.
