I'm a cabinetmaker and the woodworking in this gave me... chills, gotta be honest. But hey - if it suits your needs, who cares about whether somebody else would do it in a different way. Crafting, be it in your spare time, as a hobby or as a job, is all about the process and the result and this seems to be satisfying all the needs it has to. Aside from that, would love to see more of this and will subscribe!

Maaaan, seeing this snatched me all the way back to 1999 as a kid in the Bay Area. There was a mall that had a dedicated Thomas the Tank Engine store and one of my earliest memories ever was standing in front of this EXACT layout. I didn't even get to play with it since there were so many other kids using the locomotives. I just watched in pure wonder. From that point on I was doomed to become a vehicle enthusiast. So I wanna say thanks ThomasCollectibles for bringing these precious memories back!

@kieranstravels Жыл бұрын

This is incredible! I remember deeing this layout advertised a LOT when I was younger. My parents back at the time were really cool, and got me a lot of even then, older sets. I always wanted to build this set, and you did it. My younger self would love this, great video man :)

I have tons of these items in my attic right now as I was huge into Thomas when I was younger. Fun story: I remember when I was younger learning about lead paint and the recalls that the first edition Thomas trains had as they used lead paints. Several years later, I found my old Thomas stuff and noticed my first Thomas train was flaking paint bad. Then lots of things started to make sense to me lol. Probably ate some of those chips.

6:08 I knew of such thing as a kid as it came with the adapter packs as I didn't have any M-M adapters and only two F-F ones circa 2008. They were not available like the other straight tracks I really like the custom table, but part of me felt pain when you called wood screws "nails"

Watching him trying to build that table absolutely made my day. I guess woodworking, small-scale construction, etc. isn't as common of a skill as I thought.

@connorallgood0922 Жыл бұрын

Also just saying, glad he figured out that he needed more than 1 screw. You won't believe how many people don't think to have at least 2 nails/screws when building things. I do robotics so to keep pieces from rotating it's pretty important.

This really brings me back to when I was younger because I remember playing with wooden railway a lot. I remember my preschool that I went to had a small layout. Sometimes I would bring wooden railway engines I had at home to my preschool to play with them on the layout.

I was more of an ERTL guy growing up - my parents always said the wooden stuff was too expensive. But I remember going through that yearbook that we found somewhere and seeing that layout, as well as some of the random characters that received the wooden railway treatment that weren't in the TV series. A year or so later I found the Complete Collection book and most of the one-off characters made sense. Talk about a nostalgia blast! Great stuff!

I had the lego building sound in my head everytime you showed a clip of building the layout. Also I used to have the Roundhouse set, complete with a giant wooden bin shaped like Thomas. Much nostalgia.
