Dear Mr. Bachmann,

Please make an HO scale Abraham Lincoln funeral train.

Excellent!:)

Cool!:)

Cool!:)

I think that the most plausible options based on just how things are right now are re-paints of existing locomotives for HO scale, which is why I think that Paxton and Sidney are most likely for next year. Oliver and Toad may also be mentioned, due to the demand. Henrietta may also be virtually inevitable for next year in the large scale range since Toby is made and you just can't have one without the other if you know what I mean. Of course Mavis is a great choice for large scale since she shares the same chassis with Toby.

What just makes you think that re-releases are out of the question?

They should make an N Scale Gordon and Edward! They would be just too cool for school!:)

Oliver is returning! Yay!   

Wow!

Okay, by Oliver I mean that it would basically be because he has been the engine most demanded for, but since they are basically doing repaints, Paxton, Sidney, Splatter and Dodge seem most likely since they can just be made from modifying Devious Diesel!:)

What do you mean?

2014 Thomas range:

HO scale:

1. Oliver
2. Toad
3. Paxton
4. Sidney
5. Diesel 10
6. Arthur
7. Red coaches

Re-releases:

HO scale:

1. Tar wagon

Large scale:

1. Edward
2. Henrietta

You are right, just because there is no Henrietta or van for the large scale range does not mean that there cannot be in the future!

So don't just give up on a large scale Henrietta yet, because she could still be mentioned!:)

COOL!:)
