As said, I have two more models for all you Thomas Fans out there.
(1) Edward's Cattle Cars - -> All done! Look for them this weekend!
(2) Smudger - -> Still working on the final touches. Look for him in about a month.
PS: What ever happened to Bill and Ben?

Cool

I can't believe Smudger is coming out!! the cattle cars look great too. Just one thing though, about Smudger. Would we have to get the Scotsman Eng. file or whatever to run it? Because i just can't find the Scotsman file (whatever) anywhere on TrainSim.com 's File Library.

Smudger will be supplied with a copy of the cabviews and sounds from the Golsdorf 380 steam engine (the one that pulls the Orient Express in MSTS), along with all the necessary files to make Smudger run, so no worries sillyevan27!
I'm glad you liked my Cattle Cars. Hope you downloaded my Sodor Line Brake Van as well!
I hear other Thomas models are in the works! They include:
*Derek the Diesel
*Salty the Dock Yard Diesel
*A second set of Troublesome Trucks
*Gordon's Coaches
*Catherine the Mountain Coach
*Lord Harry the Mountain Engine
*By the way guys, how about a little update on these?

*Derek the Diesel-Thomasthetank
*Salty the Dock Yard Diesel-Haven't done any serious work on it*
*Catherine the Mountain Coach-To go with Culdee
*Lord Harry the Mountain Engine-I'm doing that
Triple8, do you want to work together on Salty, I've got his face and colour right but the skewed textures are a bit of a head scratcher, look forward to seeing Smudger.

Sillyevan... for future reference, the scotsman stuff comes as standard with your Train Sim installation. Simply look in Train Simulator\Trains\Trainsets and then Scotsman. A lot of downloads require that you copy files around in your trainsets folder. It's worth having a look at what's in there already.

Sure Mike! I'll take your offer but right now I'm concentrating on getting Smudger done. After that, I'll PM you about Salty if I've the chance!
(Smudger's Progress: About 85-90% complete)

Just a thought....
There have been many uploads for the Thomas Operating Company this week alone, and there are more to come. Plus, the Sodor Route is back in full gear.
So why not we inquire on creating our very own forum exclusively for Sodor-related posts only? It'll be nice to have it all under one roof. Thomas enthusiasts can post their own thoughts as usual, plus talk about the TV series as well! And, of course, talk about new Thomas projects for MSTS.
I think it's a cool idea, don't you?

You know I just thought of something!!

And no this isn't my first time
Has any made "The diesel" yet? the green one the was rude...
I thought I saw a diesel on UkTrainSim that might be a good model for it. Just needs a re-skin.
Oh and is any one doing Derek I'd like to see him come out after all the talk about making one of him.

What is it, I'll do it, and if it's not like D261 "The Diesel", I'll make him from scratch.

COOL
That's real cool!!!
It's not the blue and yellow diesel it's the diesel that was
supposed to replace Stepney. Who was D261?
One more engine coming into the TS Sodor family

I know what you mean, Evan.

D261 is The Diesels number, but he wasn't meant to replace Stepney, and the Blue and Yellow One you meant was D199, I am aiming to get him done soon too.

Why did you upload another S.C.Ruffy on UKTrainSim didn't Mtsnoodle already make one?
Nothin' wrong just wanted to know.
Oh well i off to search the pages of UKTrainSim bye!
