If Peco is making new rolling stock tooling.

Since there's Slate Wagons and Tipper Wagons.
I was thinking if they would make tooling for Talyllyn Railway Coaches


They could be repainted into the Skarloey Railway Coaches, I personally like the blue ones.

For Rolling Stock
I was thinking that Bachmann could rehash this Sliding Door Van into a Thomas product from their old Mainline Range.

That random "fool" on the vocals you refer to is Robert Hathshorne, who is also the composer of the soundtrack for the CGI Series. ::)  :P

I didn't think anyone would bring this back. Yes, I'm Nykrivas, but I've changed my name obviously. I'm not sure if I'm having much motivation right now, considering my outside life.  Perhaps when I find a new job, I'll pick it up again.

I would like to request this thread to be deleted please.

A little late, but hey.....
I often enjoy discussions over the TV Series

Helping Hiro was pretty dull, the crash and damage done to Hiro was great. Though the thing that gets to me was the Master of the Railway dialogue and Hiro not knowing why. But the reflection off Hiro's livery really shows how Arc has improved in their lighting.
Percy's 4th Wall, need I say more?? :D
I've wondered on how they would utilized Stephen outside of Ulfstad Castle, but this ep felt like an improved squeal to the Afternoon Tea Express.
I think my favorite out of the batch would have to be "Best Engines Ever." Connor/Caitlin always get the fast paced often exciting episodes. I do like how this ep focuses specifically on female characters without feeling like it had to aimed at the girl audience. Funny how the ep was implying girl troubles, though. :P And yes Connor's line. ::)

Philip
I'm not sure what to say about Philip as a character. His design though I thought it was German at first. I can't say whether I say that Philip is endearing or annoying.  ???

Seeing how the show is going now. Based on the characters appearances and roles.
Here's how I think the NG chracters would be released

After Rheneas
-A 50/50 toss-up between Peter Sam and Duncan
-Followed by Rusty
-And Sir Handel last, considering he's had very few appearances.

Thoughts??

I couldn't really tell the difference until in recent years when I've realized it's just the firebox. Personally, I don't care much about Henry's Old Shape anyway. Even as a fan project, it's something I wouldn't really put my time in.
#98
Seeing how the show is going now, it really won't surprise me if Sir Handel is the last of the original 6. I could even see Duncan happening before him, considering the many roles he's gotten since his return. It's also a personal preference considering that Duncan is my favorite NG Engine.

I'd say that Stepney would help with color contrast and Daisy/Boco for Big Diesels. And that's pretty much all the classic characters.

Also with all this talk about Murdoch, I'm not gonna lie saying that Murdoch is probably Hornby's best model. But I think he really falls short, especially when compared something like Hiro, who would seem to have a much better chance than Murdoch, for being the next tender engine. He's highly popular to both older and younger fans. Plus he actually has depth, and has such an extraordinary design. But he falls in the same category as tooling costs, considering he's a tender engine.

It seems more like a shade of gray to me, it also probably has to due with the lighting, considering how Arc Studios has had different lighting for each season they've done.

I also don't see what the problem is with the color. It really doesn't seem any different from the model era.

Most of the engine liveries aren't realistic either. Inauthentic colors are nothing new to the show. (E.G. Red Trucks)

Let's drop this here before things get hostile. There's nothing wrong with anticipations. But it's best to be civil.

Kinda surprised, no one brought back this thread. Perhaps it doesn't hurt to do so. Considering how slow and muddled S19 airings have been. Strangely, Japan has been airing new episodes, but in English. ???

Perhaps another reason why alot of people aren't being very responsive isn't just because of Christmas, but also the time when most of us are trying to get through our final exams, and spend time studying. At times these days, I've often been thinking if I even have time for my Thomas interest.

And on other note, I personally think it's best to wait for Bachmann's announcements next year, instead of making another 2016 thread, since the year's almost over anyway.
