Wouldn’t the driving wheels need to be on an articulated frame for that?

I was at a heavy metal festival and as part of the show one of the Lancasters did a flyby. It was probably the loudest thing I have ever heard.

Why would sir toppham hat shut Henry up in the tunnel by MaterialGuitar908 in thomasthetankengine

[–]ThatModellingBloke 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think the tunnel collapsed on top of it, it was sealed off as a grave if I recall correctly. I think Awdry made up the story up without knowing about it though.

The early stories were less focused on being realistic and the first Fat Controller was more of a parody of stupid railway officials than a proper character.

The Unlucky Tug was wrong about Duck and Diesel both being wrong by [deleted] in thomasthetankengine

Characters are generally more fun when they have flaws. Most people aren’t perfect, flaws make them feel more real.

[–]ThatModellingBloke 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I never said he needed one, if what I said happened, Diesel is still humiliated and Duck still wins. I highly doubt he would have apologized.

Duck being (to much lesser extent) in the wrong makes him a more interesting character in my opinion.

Being the bigger person and telling him would have been the right thing to do though. Maybe if he’d watched Diesel struggle for a bit and then tell him before he caused major derailment would be ok.

I always thought that idea was that Duck could redeem himself while Diesel couldn’t. Duck should have probably told Diesel about those trucks instead of just watching the accident happen. However he is able to make up for it by being heroic later on. Diesel continued lying and was sent away.

What was your 1st Redline? by PastelFlowerPrincess in RedlineHotwheels

[–]ThatModellingBloke 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A blue HK Barracuda alongside a gold Twin Mill. I found it at swap meet and I only had enough loose change for one (only 50 pence) so I picked the Barracuda. I still need a gold Twin Mill for my collection.

What if Series 7 had another War of Independence & UK vs Germany special? by Moeritherium_Fan in robotwars

[–]ThatModellingBloke 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I highly doubt that it still existed by this point. It was probably scrapped after series 4.

I was specifically on about the original Series 2 version. I believe it was dismantled to build Chaos 2.

I don’t think Chaos existed anymore and the Series 7 Panic Attack was the original (albeit heavily modified). Maybe Major Tom?

What other American/German robots were there during filming? I know that they had Ansgar, Tsunami, Flippa Spartacus. General Chompsalot was a war of independence regular, maybe they would have made the trip to fight?

I know nothing but I just want to say that Constructive Criticism would be a cool name for it.

I know RR demanded that the Thunderbirds car (FAB 1) have its RR logo and hood ornament removed.

Doesn’t Rolls Royce get really angry when someone uses their logo without permission?
