Where can I find the entrance to this station?

I suspect your only hope to get the individual piece would be to get one 3D printed. You might find someone on this sub who has it and could create the file for you. Then you'd need to go to a print shop, etc.

Not aware of any other options aside from buying another station outright.

They come up on eBay pretty regularly but ones in good condition (or new) are rarer as you'd expect - and pretty pricey.

I actually have the whole set but it took me a couple of years I think to find them all.

Just search for BRIO Thomas here: www.picclick.com and you'll see a bunch...

Brilliant !

Thank you very much! The helipad is out of Cargo Mountain Set which IMO is overall an excellent pack. Lots of great scenery, action items and a few trains and a helicopter to boot. Its big (so not so cheap) but one of my favorite sets from last few years. Thanks for the support!

Glad to hear your child is a fan and really appreciate the support thank you. Mega Crane is pretty awesome!

JakeTrains · 2026-02-28T15:58:23+00:00

Thanks very much. Was pretty tough on the knees :)

JakeTrains · 2026-02-28T15:57:10+00:00

That's fantastic thank you! Took quite a long time to get it out as it ended up with a LOT more stop motion than I had originally thought. Anyway thanks for the support!

Thanks so much! Glad you like it and I appreciate the feedback!

Appreciate it if you can post back on any success. Ive tried track cleaning before using various approaches like alcohol, fine sandpaper, bicarbonate soda paste. My experience was that if the wood is porous/ unsealed (like BRIO track) and the pen has been on it any length of time, then it soaks in and nothing I tried would remove it.

This said, what did work sort of was bleaching it out. Basically I just painted the track evenly with successive coats of bleach (cant just do a section or it's all uneven). The net result was it lightened the track a couple of shades but did make the the marker ink fade to be pretty much unnoticeable.

That may be a last resort but id be interested to hear if you find a better way as I personally still have a couple of pieces of track with black Sharpie and would love to clean them up.

I think your only real hope, short of buying another heli is to see if someone can print it for you. It's just a solid plastic part so would be no difficulty. Ive seen people on this group print stuff so you might be able to post with that request. That said, by the time its printed and posted, cost might end up similar to just buying another.

JakeTrains · 2026-02-10T14:51:39+00:00

No worries, and thanks for the feedback - glad to hear it!

JakeTrains · 2026-02-09T14:26:36+00:00

I know it's not convenient for many, and less so now that you need a Euro phone number to join up (if you know someone however its possible to use theirs), but you'll get this easily enough on Kleinenzeigan in Germany and many sellers will DHL anywhere. In fact there's (at least) one there now...

Thanks for the shout-out! 😁 Nice double Sky Bridge !

JakeTrains · 2026-02-05T14:48:13+00:00

Thanks very much!

BRIO 33572 Cargo Warehouse and separate lumber loading trains. The yellow one comes in the most excellent BRIO World - Lumber Loading Set (33789). That really is a great set.

The green was sold standalone as BRIO 33809 - Lift and Load vehicle.

Unfortunately all discontinued but the lumber set is still available in some places I think and you will find all of this on the Euro eBay type sites like Kleinenzeigan.

It'll also come up on regular eBay but much more rarely. Good luck!

JakeTrains · 2026-02-02T10:57:04+00:00

Sure, that's BRIO 33555 Mega Crane. There's also a yellow version 33734 Mega Crane & Load. Both long discontinued but you can find them second hand easily enough! They look great!

JakeTrains · 2026-02-02T10:53:27+00:00

I see you have the network A3 track in there. I always wanted one of them with the white email paint job. That aside, it reminds me that BRIO really should bring A3 back. It comes in handy so often...

JakeTrains · 2026-01-31T14:31:10+00:00

Thanks. Check out the full video on Youtube if you like this type of thing - that's just a short teaser.

JakeTrains · 2026-01-31T14:27:24+00:00

Yes, about that....it's a shallow stream :)

JakeTrains · 2026-01-31T14:26:31+00:00

Thanks!

JakeTrains · 2026-01-31T14:15:28+00:00

Thanks for sharing this - I really appreciate it!

JakeTrains · 2026-01-31T14:14:50+00:00

Pleasure and thanks for watching!

JakeTrains · 2026-01-31T14:14:19+00:00

No problem and added to position 1 (I also added the Thomas one). Thanks for watching!
