RAT, general nuisance, interested in (mostly) Scottish railways. Big fan of episode three of the Doctor Who serial 'Robot'. I make silly talking train stories on YouTube.

It's time to import a thread from 𝘵𝘩𝘢𝘵 𝘱𝘭𝘢𝘤𝘦.
So. I make a thing called 'Auld Lang Syne' - a series about talking trains made with model trains.
It's silly, a bit odd, quite janky, full of dad jokes and surprisingly endorsed by people who usually have impeccable taste 🤷♂️

A little bit ago I put the near final touches on another module of my industrial layout, my Steelworks, Eden's Gate.
So happy with it, still needs figures and signs, and since this point I decided to block in the area behind the rear gate.

Been faffing about with the Haymarket set (that's basically all I can do at the moment in regards to the next episode. Realised after that the skyline is far too cluttered but hey ho, at least the tenements look more tenement-y!

While this may be the last Extravaganza for a while, it is by no means the end of our connection with that mythical island off the north west coast of England - for those links are stronger than ever!

With the Awdry Extravaganza 2025 just around the corner, we thought we'd throw it back to the time Sir Handel took on Carr last year!
I wonder if they'll see each other again?
