Backdating Bachmann's Thomas the Tank Engine

Was it you who renamed the thread? Now I get why, because it went from replicating the Season 1/3 models to a complete tra(i)nsformation. Is it going to be some sort of Dalby/Mitton/CGI hybrid now? The pointed ends at the bunker seem to be more reminiscent of his first appearances. Because you cut the chassis apart, how are you going to extend it seamlessly and keep it stable? Surely he'd need a new wheelbase following this change.
