I actually really like how Sodor is populated by one-offs, hybrids, and outliers. To me it really gives the island this "rag tag bunch of misfits" vibe.

But I love this alternate rebuild headcanon you've thought up to explain this model's looks. I'm never not thinking about Gordon's siblings, so the idea of him actually getting to meet some of his younger brothers and sisters that he wouldn't have in canon really warms my heart.

Gordon is one of my favorite characters in the franchise, and this custom Gordon looks perfect, in my opinion. I especially like the addition of the nameplate. It seems like something he would have.

I think Gordon might've been intended to be an A1 from the start, but since there was no A1/A3 model when Awdry built it, he had to do it with the triang princess, which is hard to convert into a 100% accurate Gresley pacific, specially with the different running plate. So he had to compromise and create the A0 backstory.

Gordon in primer looks like he's in that game on the Thomas DVDs where you had to match the engine to their right color

Can't get over how beautiful your models are.

I don't usually rewatch videos that have been reposted. I tend to only go back and watch a few specific ones I've enjoyed. I'm making an exception in your case, watching most of them as you post them.
Post the Toby one next, I want to watch it.

I'm still waiting for that Henry and Toby video.

[ItsCarlos]

Gordon will be very pleased with this.

[WoozieGuy]

Such a beautiful looking model of a realistic take on Gordon.

[moonlightrider]

A classic goodie of a model. Basic but wonderful

[greenerell]

amazing how may people are rewatching all the reuploads

[levidarling]

I personally would’ve loved to see a nameplate that says “Gordon” in the television series weather it would’ve been model or CGI.

The bright side is that Hornby has a new tender coupling system that is used in their P2’s. Hopefully they retool their other models with it soon.

I wanted to ask Tug, you mentioned the LMS Fowler looked a but small & dinky behind an A3 body. Someone told me there where bigger fowler tenders used that would look good proportionally wise behind a A3 body.

4:36 Gordon you're gonna explode without water

Your Gordon moddel is amazing! This video is interessting. Your Gordon back story is great. If you make a series I think it would be amazing because you understand these chrarictors so well and your back storys for these chrarictors are so interessting. Great video! Hope you have a great day!

Gordon is flying Scotsman brother mallard is Spencer’s brother

I hope there's gonna be a video when Gordon pulls his own Coaches.

Here's an idea, put a "The Shooting Star" nameplate on gordon so hes similar to other A3s that have long names
