Hey everybody, I'm ZoneInsanity. I mainly post things about Thomas the Tank Engine and Friends here on Twitter and other miscellaneous stuff I'm into.

@TRJ_1223 If you want my two cents, there is this online shop known as H & A Models. They’re not as popular as Wizard Models or Alan Gibson, but they have a very adequate selection of products. Here is the page for the handrail knobs specifically.

I love these sorts of posts detailing the creation process of any piece of rolling stock. It's just fun to look at what techniques and materials are used in the creation of a well-made model such as this one featured here. I'm just in awe at your ingenuity and gumption.

Finished! L&Y 23 is done!
Bought from ebay as an unassembled, old white metal kit, I'm happy to have completed my first 'proper' kit.

This model depicts 11304, which was assigned 51304 on nationalisation but never carried, as it was a departmental shunter at Horwich Works 🧵📸⬇️

This realistic interpretation of Edward is fantastic. The rendering, detailed livery, and rebuilt shape really makes this model stand out from other realistic takes of the NWR's beloved no. 2. I would honestly love to see this or a model like it in Trainz. Smashing job, lad.

He may be a butch of old iron to some, but he's our blue number 2.
Finished my new NWR Rebuild FR K2 Edward, with a brand new Fowler Tender too!

@FlyingPringle This honestly looks like a rare promotional photo for a cancelled season of the classic model series. I say cancelled because it has season 1's realistic set dressing style, but also season 5's top-tier paint jobs for the engines.

THANKS TO @Modrail TOMÁS IS REAL ‼️💙💙💙‼️

The boys doing final touches to the models days before the show and the first time this model ever wore a face 🤡

[R @LNERFSRobert]

One of the video clips from the Great British Train Show I took. @FlyingPringle signing @ericpierre53’s Thomas The Tank Engine Man book.

[Ted (Oliver Duck) @Oliver267Studio]

Been talking about Tidmouth allot, because you know, been obsessed, but it’s been a blast doing the show with @wrreviews, @FlyingPringle, @NorthernStarCA and @ericpierre53. Here is both of the teams together here! Hats off for your hustle, and a end result.

[Eric @ericpierre53]

I still can’t believe that we actually pulled it off.

This rag-tag underdog team somehow managed to make a TVS scaled layout and unveil it at a live show for all to see, warts and all, and we couldn’t be happier with the reception.

We need to take the month off to sleep now 🥱

[Rob @wrreviews]

Here we are, 6 months of planning this layout and 1 and a half years waiting for Gordon: ELSBRIDGE STATION! RUNNING IN GAUGE 1! To @FlyingPringle, @NorthernStarCA and @ericpierre53 - thank you. Your talents are unprecedented.

[Eric @ericpierre53]

After 6 months of work, I'm happy to finally reveal my G1 James Tribute!
Premiering today at the Great British Train Show :)

[Zone @ZoneInsanity]

It really does look like the season 5 model, and the camera angles used in these photos just makes him look all the grander. The lining and paint job is so unbelievably crisp that I would have honestly believed you bought the real model itself. Fantastic job, Jacob.

[knowah🍉 @The_lbsc_thomas]

Steady Eddie is at the ready! I'm very happy to call him done. He's a bachmann Edward with some slight detail changes like handrails, a new buffer beam and a full repaint also really pleased with how clean I did the paint it shows how masking tape can go a long way. I love him sm

[Zone @ZoneInsanity]

@Mr_C_Railway I find it really fascinating that you can rework RTR models into your own idealized version. The new livery you painted her in makes her look a lot more realistic compared to how she appears already in the television series. Honestly, this is some really great work here, lad.

[Zone @ZoneInsanity]

@FoldinTime I would if I could, but unfortunately the nearest model train store is over 1 hour away from where I live.

[James @NWRmodeller]

Annie is now brown. I’m really pleased with how this is turning out. Can’t wait for Clarabel to turn up so I can unite the trio

[knowah🍉 @The_lbsc_thomas]

MATERIAL GORWLL I finally got my etched plates for Oliver now he's finally done oh I would absolutely kill for a DJM 14xx but I'm happy with this one, I love the weathering job I did and the gloss coat makes it look 10 times better. he's a bit stuffed I def need to clean him up

[knowah🍉 @The_lbsc_thomas]

The "1955" effect

[knowah🍉 @The_lbsc_thomas]

I told y'all once I start doing rws it's over for you bitches 🙄

[Zone @ZoneInsanity]

@wrduckdog If this was a real vehicle, I would legitimately purchase it as my first car.
