User:ElsbridgeStationFan1995

Kia Ora guys I am Michael (formerly NZGuy) and I hail from that wonderful place called New Zealand, i am also the biggest Elsbridge Station fan ever, its my favourite station ever and my favourite character is Bowler (aka D261), i have been a fan of Thomas for all my life and am a HUGE fan of the Railway Series and Season 1-4 and 17 onwards (S5-16 are just plain awful) of the television series and only like the Awdry's and Andrew Brenner's Stories since they are the only well written stories. I like a few Original Britt/Hit characters like Luke, Paxton, Sidney, Old Slow Coach and Hector but other than that i think they should have always based the series on either Wilbert, Christopher or Brenner's stories after S4 instead of writing dumb as stories and getting bad as narrators (US ones). I am also in charge of a campaign to bring back Elsbridge Station to the Andrew Brenner era of Thomas and Friends, like it and join me, https://www.facebook.com/BringElsbridgeStationBack join quickly

I was also the first to discover that Miranda Raison will be voicing Millie and  I was also the first to discover the narrators for Russia and Portugal. I am also trying to find out the Arabic and Chinese narrators as well.

Favourite Narrators in order:

 * 1) Michael Angelis (simply the best, I grew up mainly with his narrations and he did the best Fat Controller, James, Donald, Douglas, Gordon, Percy, Sir Handel, George and a whole lot of other cool character voices)
 * 2) Ringo Starr (he is just as good as Angelis, I grew up with him as well)
 * 3) Mark Moraghan (a mix of my two favourites, an excellent voice)
 * 4) George Carlin (the BEST American narrator and the only good one at that, loved his Donald and Douglas and Sir Topham Hatt voices, I grew up with some of his narrations, mainly Season 3 and a bit of Season 1-2)
 * 5) Mykola Koziy (he is simply the best non English Thomas narrator ever because he is so good at the Narrations and actually takes pride at voicing over Starr, Carlin and Angelis)
 * 6) Michael Brandon (One of the two worst narrators ever, he isn't mostly a good narrator, but I like his CGI Diesel voice and thats it, I prefer the UK versions with Angelis of his and the guy belows ones)
 * 7) Alec Ba- (I can't even say his name, he makes me sick and is simply the WORST narrator in history EVER!)

Other Favourites

 * 1) Manfred Steffen (I'm part Austrian, so that's why I like him)
 * 2) Sky du Mont (same reason as Steffen and I got a Facebook message from him which was epic)
