It is with great sadness that I share with you the passing of Britt Allcroft.
The Allcroft-Wright family has asked me to bring this news to the Thomas fandom. A full obituary will be released in the London Times later today. The family is currently in mourning and asks that their privacy be respected at this time.
Britt was an adoring mother and wife. A visionary producer. She brought so much joy and happiness to people everywhere during her time on Earth.
Over the years of knowing Britt, we developed a close connection. It was truly a privilege to have her as both a mentor and a friend, and I’m so glad that so many fans were able to meet her at the New York screening of “An Unlikely Fandom”. It was an absolute honor to have her in our documentary, and she has since remained a vocal supporter of our cause.
I think I can speak for the entirety of the fandom when I say that all of us will deeply miss her. Without her, so many of us would never have met.
As a way to honor Britt's legacy, her family as asked that you consider making a charitable donation to your local chapter of the ASPCA in Britt's name.
While I am devastated by her passing, we can all find comfort in the certainty that her legacy will endure forever through Thomas and his fans around the world.
Rest in Peace.
Happy 79th anniversary to the Railway Series!
Here's my first submission for this year's art collab.
It's one of my favourite lines from James, so unsympathetic 😄
After placing an order in 2019, my CoolProps Thomas has finally arrived. It's been a long wait but this replica is amazing. I can't wait to place it on the custom Sodor Island Station set and take pictures with the screen used Peter Sam
This is the most astounding project I've ever seen in my life when it comes to this fandom. The attention to detail, it's perfect down to the minute detail. I can't wait to see where this goes. @FlyingPringle and the rest of the team!
🚨 IT'S FINALLY HERE!
My Full Island of Sodor Classic Series Map, including nearly 300 pictured locations from S1-7 and some HIT Era.
I normally don't ask, but RTs would be appreciated. I worked very hard on this!
