Thanks for the vid.. I am thinking about trying to produce a custom version of one of those. If anyone wants to give me ideas or their thoughts on me making a custom one then let me know. If that works out well I will consider making a few to sell to some lucky members of blue plastic tracks.

Another thing... The youtuber who posted that video posted another video showcasing him turning that into a timothy model!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Oh the indignity, I could just be grumpy right now but seriously why would you do that to such a rare and beautiful model. The Gordon way is the best way...

@trevor
Have a look at these two threads, long story short the Silver Thomas was a special lottery item and purchasing the Merlin Coal Hopper Set could get you an entry into the lottery which is now over: https://www.blueplastictracks.com/showth...lin+hopper https://www.blueplastictracks.com/showth...ver+Thomas (12-07-2018, 03:48 PM)Muddy Poppins Wrote: Super you HAVE a clear brown Annie in your future world collection!

Can you believe it!?!? We are still letting it sink it...it's amazing. Not in a 1000 years could we have imagined this...
AND it was truly a miracle of a 50/50 chance that Silver Thomas survived the journey from Thailand... The package was nearly crushed in route to us! Very sadly the plarail box was damaged during shipping and is no longer pristine The end with the 2nd tipper car was compressed so hard by whatever damaged the package, that it was left crimped and wrinkled and left permanent wheel marks pressed into the box. There was no damage to the tipper car, but had it happened to the other end of the package, Silver Thomas would have been destroyed. Sheer luck that he survived, and that neither car was damaged...just the box, It's very sad that it happened to such priceless package (mod and I both cried over it), but we are still beyond thankful that fate chose to crush the end that it did.
Play nice & have fun!!
