Version 1

The first version of Ivor was made for a remake of "The Railway" (Episode 1), inspired by Callum Walker (SI3DFilms)'s Trainz one. However, he was only a one-off, so I made sure to make him 90% reversible. I repainted Stepney's shell and mounted it on a Percy chassis, albeit with Stepney's siderods. While painting the shell, I tried to get a colour mixture similar enough to Percy's so it could match Percy's wheels. This is what it looked like:

Here is the remake it featured in:



Version 2

This version was made from a 2012 TrackMaster Thomas that was bought in the UK. The sides of the footplate had to be trimmed in order to make room for the side panels, and the front bufferbeam was cut off and replaced with the rear bufferbeam from an old TOMY/HiT Thomas. The fake middle wheels were also cut off, with their remains being hidden using electrical tape.

Update: Final result (hand-painted siderods were going to be replaced with Stepney's):
