This is a "Part 2" to my original Gauge 1 Thomas tutorial. Diving deeper into the electronics and engineering aspect of my Thomas model and future gauge 1 projects.
And i also guess this is a 2,000 sub special!

You've done it again my friend! Once again I'm both laughing and learning my ass off at the same time! Don't feel bad you lack the genuine marklin parts. It's something I find genuinely inspiring about you opposed to other gauge 1 modelers. You've proven that no one needs to have the fancy marklin or tenmille pieces to make a great replica. You can still make one that's just as good (Dare I say better?). Keep doing what you're doing jonjon.

7:10 literally straight out of the show. I’d say this is a perfect season 6. My replicas will most likely be the 1-4 versions, when they were still shiny and not matte. Fantastic job, and this video has explained the most difficult part of construction and it’s something I really needed to buy the parts I need for my model. Thank you and I can’t wait to start, and you weren’t kidding last video, this is gonna be quite the investment 😂😭

@douglasbluebells3117 6 ай бұрын

the original models couldn't steam on their own either, there were some fog/steam machines placed under the set, where the model was, that gave them that illusion.

Imagine getting face tracking software and putting in a camera somewhere so the model will recognize and interact with the person, whether that is tooting the whistle, flicking the eyes like he would in the show or something, maybe even have it connected to the forward and back controls so he will stop or act out in some way
