NEW SONG (Possibly) FOUND!
Hi Thomasfan I think I found a new song! :O It went like "work work work till the sun goes down" "shake shake till you shake around" "huffing & puffing huffing & puffing" so is that a new song I discovered?? I just saw it today & I was wondering if I discovered a new song?? SirHandelFalcon  Toot! Toot!  11:18, May 14, 2011 (UTC)


 * On TV this morning at around 7:00AM! :) SirHandelFalcon  Toot! Toot!  16:55, May 14, 2011 (UTC)


 * No! SirHandelFalcon  Toot! Toot!  17:01, May 14, 2011 (UTC)


 * No I am not trying to fool you it was basically about work & it was sung by the same people who sung "Hear the Engines Coming". It was viewed when "Stop That Bus" & "Spencer the Grand" were viewed. SirHandelFalcon  Toot! Toot!  19:59, May 15, 2011 (UTC)


 * It was like work or something but I could not record it since I lost my video camera so you will just have to trust me on this one. Sorry :( SirHandelFalcon  Toot! Toot!  19:59, May 15, 2011 (UTC)

And I forget the name of the song. But it may rerun so I will keep an eye out on it. ;) <font face="Arial"><font color="sky-blue">SirHandelFalcon  Toot! Toot!  21:47, May 15, 2011 (UTC)


 * Okay I will try to look some more for my video camera! ;) <font face="Arial"><font color="sky-blue">SirHandelFalcon  Toot! Toot!  12:15, May 16, 2011 (UTC)


 * Well I do have a VCR & DVR but they do not record (because of the new channels like 61.2 aka Qubo) <font face="Arial"><font color="sky-blue">SirHandelFalcon  Toot! Toot!  15:45, May 16, 2011 (UTC)


 * The VCR (the one I record on) is old so that could be the reason. <font face="Arial"><font color="sky-blue">SirHandelFalcon  Toot! Toot!  16:37, May 16, 2011 (UTC)


 * I saw the same episode: the song is "Roll Along". CalleyFan 02:31, May 17, 2011 (UTC)

Hello!
I would personally say that this wikia place is fantastic besides Sodor Island Fansite. And plus, thanks for making sure I had to follow the rules when it comes to articles, pictures etc. (As well as correcting things when I first edit something) Lastly, ever since I have been a member for almost a year and 3 months, I have some thoughts of updating my Wikia page real soon. Keep up the good work! Dan5589 12:30, May 14, 2011 (UTC)

Crop picture into an icon??
Hi Thomasfan I am going to change my icon but it will require cropping down the "Gallant Old Engine" (2nd version box art) so can I crop it down for my icon?? <font face="Arial"><font color="sky-blue">SirHandelFalcon  Toot! Toot!  01:24, May 16, 2011 (UTC)

Wellsworth?
Do you know what station this is? It almost looks like Wellsworth, but the color is off. Toby7 Ding!Ding! 02:39, May 17, 2011 (UTC)


 * Never mind about the Wellsworth part, it's already been added :) Toby7 Ding!Ding! 18:40, May 17, 2011 (UTC)


 * The way the station is laid out is identical to how it was in Season 11. Of course it's Wellsworth! The road and phone booth are even in the same place they were before! Jim 14:13, May 18, 2011 (UTC)


 * Look behind the workman with the tree. You see that small light red blob? That's it right there. Jim 14:13, May 18, 2011 (UTC)

Code page??
Hi Thomasfan sorry if I am annoying you with all of these questions but on |Bulbapedia they have a page with wiki code that I think would be helpful on this Wiki so I was wondering if we could make a Wiki code page?? <font face="Arial"><font color="sky-blue">SirHandelFalcon  Toot!

Birthday Express DVD USA extra
the Birthday Express DVD came with the "Ulitimate Diesel Guide" book. Should that be mentioned in the info? Percyplunge 22:43, May 17, 2011 (UTC)

Hello
howdy thomasfan who is your favorite charater from thomas

Whiff
Who did you say was the modeller who thought up Whiff and thought it was funny? I've forgotten his name, and I'll need it if I want to reboot my Sodor Engine Bios series starting with that abomination of an X1. :p Jim 18:34, May 18, 2011 (UTC)

The Birthday Express DVD Triva
on the back cover of the DVD cover has a picture from the season 15 episode "Wonky Whistles". But its not seen in the DVD. Percyplunge 22:59, May 18, 2011 (UTC)

Spotlight Request
Hi. TTTE Wiki looks like it is in generally good shape. You would need to drop the main page protection to only protect against new and unregistered users; then I would be happy to add it to the approved spotlight list. Let me know on my talk page when you are ready. -- <font color="Blue">Wendy (<font color="Blue" size="1">talk ) 23:18, May 18, 2011 (UTC)


 * Hey Thomasfan. Wendy said we'll have to lift the protection on the main page so registered users can edit it in order to get a spotlight. What do you think? I think if we keep a close eye out on the main page we should be fine, but is it worth the risk? I don't mean to interfer with an admins job or anything though. Toby7 Ding!Ding! 23:35, May 18, 2011 (UTC)

How?
How could something not need explaining? I didn't understand. And wasn't Thomas going too fast to stop at Dryaw or however it's spelled?


 * That's the point? Trust me, it makes no sense. Skipper101 02:54, June 5, 2011 (UTC)

Milk Wagons
I guessed you'd do that to my Milk Wagon edit, but I decided to give it a shot. BramGroatonWikia 14:45, May 19, 2011 (UTC)

Diesel?
Where was Diesel in Thomas, Percy and the Dragon? I didn't see him. 74.13.122.10 18:25, May 19, 2011 (UTC)


 * Thank you 70.49.97.17 14:57, May 20, 2011 (UTC)

New Category
I feel like I've been leaving you a lot of messages lately :P I created a new category: Musicians. Is it ok? I felt we needed to be more specific than "production crew". I wanted to check in with you on it before I add any more to the category. :) Toby7 Ding!Ding! 20:05, May 19, 2011 (UTC)


 * I understand. That's why I asked you before I added anymore. :) Toby7 Ding!Ding! 18:30, May 20, 2011 (UTC)

Idea
I have a great idea! How about we put the theme song on the main page so that it plays when anyone enters it? Mr.Conductor 01:09, May 20, 2011 (UTC)

Interacting
Hey! Been a while. I hope all's well with ya. I remember you telling me you didn't want to share personal info. with me since this is an open website. Question: Does that apply as well to me interacting with another user? TTTE fan11 09:18, May 20, 2011 (UTC)

Forums
Hello, just wanted to let you and SteamTeam know that I'm going to overhaul the forum TODAY. :D I'm gonna work ALL DAY and try to get things FINISHED. Forget the phase process. :) <font face="Arial"> ZEM  talk to me!   12:32, May 20, 2011 (UTC)


 * I've not quite finished with the forum... but I'm ALMOST DONE. Much, much closer than I've been all year... It should be complete shortly (should be less that 24 hours). I will notify you as soon as it is ready. :) <font face="Arial"> ZEM  talk to me!   02:38, May 21, 2011 (UTC)

Another Category Idea
Hey Thomasfan. I have another category idea, well, a type of Category. It will be a lot of work, but I think it will be helpful for people looking for a DVD/VHS with a certain episode. For example, the actegory could be called "DVD/VHS with Season 1 episodes". I know it sounds a bit messy and a lot of work, but I think It will help organize our DVDs. It's just that we have so many DVDs! Personally, as a DVD collecter, I know it will be helpful. Also, well remember how I said I made a list with all my Wikia YT channel Ideas? Well, I made it a while ago, but wanted to wait to see if I could think of any more. I think I will post them as asoon as the forum opens. :) Toby7 Ding!Ding! 21:04, May 20, 2011 (UTC)


 * I just checked community central, and our spotlight request has been approved! :D I'll keep an eye out for it :) Toby7 Ding!Ding! 01:06, May 21, 2011 (UTC)


 * It does, but I thought it would be good to have actual categories. Anyway, Last time I checked, It looks as if the forum has been deleted! I'm sure ZEM has it under control though. One more thing, Have you seen SiF's interview with another Model Maker? It's chock full of info! Toby7 Ding!Ding! 02:34, May 21, 2011 (UTC)

A Question
This might be a dumb question, but is The Island of Sodor based on The North Western Railway?Fanofthomas 02:30, May 21, 2011 (UTC)

ben small
an unknown user has deleted all the info on Ben Small's page JRCS 08:26, May 21, 2011 (UTC)


 * wait, Actually he made another page of him JRCS 08:38, May 21, 2011 (UTC)

Re: Edward Plaques?
Well, if you go 2 minutes and 12 seconds into this video of 'Buzz, Buzz', narrated by NewController01, you'll see an golden oval shape on the side of James' cab. That's the plaque, and like stated, they read 'NWR No. _, Rebuilt ____, Crovan's Gate Works." All the main line engines have it, to my knowledge... Tender Engines 11:03, May 21, 2011 (UTC)

Videos?
Hey... on my YouTube channel, I've been uploading episodes from the VHSs released the same year the episodes came out, such as Thomas and Gordon and other Stories, and I was wondering: could I add these episodes to the pages? They're in 720p HD, so there's no question of quality. How about it?

Announcements
I have another idea. Should we archive the announcements? Just because there is currently alot of content on it, and it will be eaiser to get to the latest annoucement. :) Toby7 Ding!Ding! 17:45, May 21, 2011 (UTC)


 * OK :) Toby7 Ding!Ding! 19:15, May 21, 2011 (UTC)

PMs
Hi! I sent you a PM via YouTube regarding Season 7. Can you check it and reply to me ASAP. Thanks! SteamTeam 08:28, May 22, 2011 (UTC)

New VHS/DVD categories
I have created some new categories for DVDs and VHSs that are released in certain countries because I think one category is too broad and it's harder to find what one's looking for. SteamTeam 09:24, May 22, 2011 (UTC)

Request
I've wrote up information on my fair use tagger and how members of the community can help out, this can be found here. I would be grateful if you could link this from the announcements page, but more importantly, with your approval add the tool to this page. To do this, add the following to the bottom: importScript('User:Acather96/Fair use tagger.js'); Thanks, Acather96 16:18, May 22, 2011 (UTC)

Infobox
Hey, Thomasfan! Can I have the infobox back on my page? Use this picture please: <font face="Arial"> SplatterandDodge  Honk! Honk!  17:14, May 22, 2011 (UTC)

RWS illustrations...
Unfortunately, my scanner's given up the ghost. And my local library doesn't have all the RWS books, so, until I can find a bookstore in Australia that sells them and I get a new scanner, I can't keep uploading. Sorry... Tender Engines 02:51, May 23, 2011 (UTC)

Re:(Messages)
Hi! I'm glad you liked the categories! I'm hoping to film today so I'll film the unrevised scripts and then wait until you've revised them before I record the audio. Also, we've decided that maybe 20 episodes is a bit too many and are thinking of cutting it down to 10? What do you think? SteamTeam 07:57, May 23, 2011 (UTC)


 * We're currently two episodes short of a season so if you could write two episodes it'd be great :) SteamTeam 16:56, May 23, 2011 (UTC)

Thomas the Tank Engine & Friends: Page Improvements
One of the most Important pages on this wikia, Thomas the Tank Engine and Friends, is in needs of repairs. Some vital pieces of info is scattered in the trivia section, and a decent history section of the show is missing. Alot of info that is needed on that page is on smaller individual pages. I'm going to have a shot at writing a brief history of the television series, using mostly info from the trivia section. If you have any problems with it, please leave me a message :) Toby7 Ding!Ding! 19:03, May 23, 2011 (UTC)


 * Here is what I have written up so far. Creative criticism would be appreciated :)


 * The first known attempts to make a television adaption of the Railway Series was by BBC IN 1935. Hornby Dublo models were to be used but nothing became of this. There are no known photos of this project. There have been several other attempts, the first somewhat sucessful was on the childrens show "Jackanory" in 1970. The books were read out loud by host Ted Ray. 5 books were read in the series untill october 2nd of 1970. The current television series got it's start in 1979 when The Reverend Awdry was interviewed for a feature on steam trains. The producer was Britt Allcroft, who had read some of the books before the interview. She had became fasinated with the characters, and after getting funding from her local bank, acquired the series so she could adapt it for television.


 * Allcroft rounded up a production crew, with included model directer David Mitton, narrator Ringo Starr, and composers Mike O'Donnell and Junior Campbell. The first season premiered in September 1984, and with it's sucess, came another in 1986. After two sucessful season's, Britt Allcroft made another goal: bringing Thomas into the United States. Due to stricter broadcasting schedules, Britt had to create an half hour progam to go with the the 5 and a half minute episodes. The result was Shining Time Station, starring Ringo Starr has Mr. Conducter. This was also a big sucess, and was the begining of the "Thomas Craze" in America.


 * The television series returned in 1991, there were some big changes. Instead of following the Railwy Series closely like before, Allcroft and David Mitton loosely adapted stories and even wrote their own original episodes, much to the Reverend's anger. The fourth season only had one original episode however, and featured many new characters such as the Narrow Gauge engines. The series was doing incredibly well after that, and a full-length theatrical film came to be. Britt Allcroft decided to drift away completely from Railway Series adapted stories, and the fifth season contained all original storylines. This was so Britt could showcase the series has her own for the upcoming film.


 * The film gained the tiltle "Thomas and the Magic Railroad", and after many changes from the original script, premiered in July of 2000. The film was in a huge failure, and Allcroft was forced of the series. Her company, Gullane, which owned the rights to the franchise, was sold. During the process the sixth series was produced and aired, and so was the seventh. HiT Entertainment was the buyer, and the eighth season came with drastic changes. The episodes gained forulamtic episodes, and more moral and education was added.


 * Sorry that it is so long though. Toby7 Ding!Ding! 19:52, May 23, 2011 (UTC)


 * I only removed it because I only had written it up to the eighth season, and wanted to remove until I complete on my own computer to avoid confusion and edit conflicts. I think I'll get it done by tomorrow though :) Pretty much all those dates are from SiF though. Could you tell me which ones are wrong please? Toby7 Ding!Ding! 02:42, May 24, 2011 (UTC)
 * Opps! that was supposed to be 1953! I'mm going to finish it today :) Toby7 Ding!Ding! 19:28, May 24, 2011 (UTC)
 * I have finished it. I feel it's a good start, now everyone can work off of it. I'm going to look through it a few times to see if there are any typos. :) Toby7 Ding!Ding! 20:17, May 24, 2011 (UTC)

Thanks! Maybe I'll do a Railway Series one too someday :) Toby7 Ding!Ding! 14:29, May 25, 2011 (UTC)

I'm going to upload some back covers for the US VHS Tapes. unfornionatly, the only way i can upload the photos is on a camera, i don't have a scaner or anything like that, so i decided to inform you that, sorry to bother you for such an idiotic message such as this

Replacement Cover
Hey, any chance can you delete the Ladybird Cover i first uploaded, i've had to replace it with a version in place of Jacks he sent me awhile back.... Callum


 * Yes... But on Jacks behalf i would like it deleted, and replaced by mine i took this evening... TEngine 21:57, May 28, 2011 (UTC)

episodes idea to share with you
I thought of great episode ideas to share with you i made up, and i want to tell you about them I hope you like them. So what do you think? i did these episode ideas because Sidney & Thomas is blue, Percy & Paxton is green, & James & Norman are red. Do you have any ideas :) Percyplunge 19:54, May 28, 2011 (UTC)
 * Thomas & Sidney - Thomas is given a job to work with Sidney to take passengers to the party. But Sidney forgets what place to take them to the party. So Thomas helps Sidney remember the job.
 * Percy & Paxton - Sir Topham Hatt gives Paxton a job to work with Percy deliver the mail. Paxton brags to percy about how good he is when he was being gullible. This causes trouble with the mail train. Percy helps out Paxton and becomes good friends.
 * James & Norman - James has been given a job to work with Norman to deliver a special to the fair. James gets upset that he has to work with Norman and says that diesels and steamies don't have anything in common. After Norman breaks down, James helps Norman, deliver his special and learn that he and Norman do have some things in common, Being really useful and proud of their red paint work.

Spoilers warning
Do you think we should Put in some sort of Spoiler warning to stop people who have not seen an episode? Hsuthe 21:50, May 28, 2011 (UTC)

Doctor Who
This doesn't have much to do with the wikia or Thomas, but I noticed on your YT channel you said you were getting into Doctor Who. Well today I slept in with a cold, and when I watched TV I found that they were doing a marathon of DW. I started watching it and now I love it! I'm almost all caught up! (Well not really caught up) :P Toby7 Ding!Ding! 00:08, May 29, 2011 (UTC)


 * I meant I'm caught up with the most recent episodes. Yesterday I started out with the one with the underground lizard-like creatures(I'm not sure of the name because I started halfway through it). I went to bed in the middle of the one with the pirates(Curse of the Black Spot is what I think it's called). My favourite so far is the Pandorox Opens, or something like that. What is yours? BTW I'm not sure who left that message below. Toby7 Ding!Ding! 13:06, May 29, 2011 (UTC)


 * They basically showed nothing else but Doctor Who on Saturday, so they most likely showed all of series 5. The Impossible Astronaught and Day of the Moon was really funny. I liked how at the end Nixon asked if he would be remembered XD. The actor that played the Doctor, Matt Smith, is amazing though. I haven't seen any other doctors yet, but the eleventh just may be my favorite. I just finished "The Rebel Flesh" so I think I'm caught up so I can watch next week's episode. Also, not much to do with the Doctor, but I may be a bit inscribe for the next week or two. I'll be checking in when I have the time, and I'll be mostly on the forum. Toby7 Ding!Ding! 02:01, May 30, 2011 (UTC)


 * I meant inactive, but iPods are made to automatically fix any typo or word it doesn't recognize. It's sooooo annoying. I will try to watch some episodes with the tenth doctor. This week they have re-runs of season 5 episodes, so I will be caught up with the newer series in no time! I found a Doctor Who wikia, called the Tardis Index files. Just type in "Doctor Who Wiki" on google, and it should come up :) Toby7 Ding!Ding! 04:02, May 30, 2011 (UTC)

Custom Diesel 10
Hi I recently built myself a custom Diesel 10 from a Bachmann Class 42 Warship Here is a link to a preview image I used for a model rail forum post As there are no actual Diesel 10 model's for model railways out there, would you be interested in posting this on Diesel 10's page as a custom model? If so let me know and I will get a proper picture of my model. Kind regards

Hello. I have noticed that some images on Duck's page were copyrighted. If I use those pictures for a video I'm making, will I have to get permission from the owner to use it, or once it got on this wiki, have the copyright rules been lifted? Just wanna know. Mcqueen9000 23:51, June 1, 2011 (UTC)

Infobox Thing
Hi Thomasfan I know I have in the past asked this to you before but what type of infobox do you use for pages like Thomas?? I do know it is not a template but how do you insert one on a page?? <font face="Arial"><font color="sky-blue">SirHandelFalcon  Toot! Toot!  20:03, June 6, 2011 (UTC)

Cover
If you wern't bothered to read my message i sent you on Youtube i have to explain it here.... We need to talk about this cover, I've uploaded the 1990 cover again for 3 times BUT before you remove it again, just think.... Look at this 1990 Thomas Breaks the Rules Cover. It's much smaller, and the original Thomas Gets Tricked cover i found was the same size... It's better to have this cover than no cover at all and its been hiding on my disks for a long time now, please just leave it up, The TPATD VHS Cover with Diesel is too blurry and yet i will have to find a better version... If you reject it again i will have to talk to ZEM again, theres alot of stuff out there that isn't perfect you know.... Callum


 * Right, I'm sorry if i blew up abit, i try my best sometimes but it seems its just no use... The best i could do was to sharpen the pic upabit and make it the same size as the TBTR cover And the other cover i was speaking off was Thomas, Percy and the Dragon, the 1993 release with Diesel on it  I have a friend who will hopefully supply a better cover, but until then this is the best i could do...

 * I don't think it's HORNBY. It looks like a different company to me.. <font face="Arial"><font color="sky-blue">SirHandelFalcon  Toot! Toot!  19:46, June 7, 2011 (UTC)


 * I don't mean to intrude, but going by what the comments say, it might be a model you build. One of the comments said you would have to build your own or something. I've never heard of any Thomas model line, though. If it is a model, it looks like it could be a custom built. 02:52, June 8, 2011 (UTC)


 * Oh, I see. It was just a normal class 9F model. Wow, that's a really good paint job. It looked a lot like the actual Murdoch model. 03:27, June 8, 2011 (UTC)


 * Now that is a pretty good job! It actually looks a lot like the TV series model! <font face="Arial"><font color="sky-blue">SirHandelFalcon  Toot! Toot!  12:06, June 8, 2011 (UTC)

Movie
Hey Thomasfan. Shouldn't we create a page for the WWII movie now? I know we don't even have a working title, but we have a basic plot, directed, and theatrical poster. Chris (TPAT2) uploaded it on YT. I really think it's time we made a page for it. Toby7 Ding!Ding! 23:36, June 8, 2011 (UTC)


 * Thanks for considering it. ;) Toby7 Ding!Ding! 02:17, June 9, 2011 (UTC)

New Movie Title & Theater release date.
I read on few articles that the new movie title is called "Thomas The Tank Engine". so i guess it would be the title. Also i read the movie will be release in theaters in 2014. so thats all i got. Thank you :) Percyplunge 23:44, June 8, 2011 (UTC)

Help!!!
I can't log on to the new forum and I have been asking around for the link to the new forum but no one will respond. Could you plase send me a link to the new forum?? Thomasandfriends 100 00:10, June 9, 2011 (UTC)

WWII Film
Last I checked, we don't have an article for the upcoming film. I've not had the chance to discuss this with the other admins, but I think that we should've had one all along. Now, with the newly-released poster, I really think we should have an article. Does anyone else agree? And what should we name it if we create it? <font face="Arial"> ZEM  talk to me!   01:10, June 9, 2011 (UTC)

Faces
Hey, I was just wondering if we ever got an explination aout why the engines on Sodor have faces. Does anyone know? The other engines in the RS have mouths and eyes, but not a full face. Dimi :) 05:43, June 10, 2011 (UTC)

Poll Idea...
Hi Thomasfan & I have a poll idea for July. Since HiT is going to get bought out on July we could do this poll: Who did you like better Britt Allcroft or HiT? you don't have to use it if you don't want to. :) <font face="Arial"><font color="sky-blue">SirHandelFalcon  Toot!

Hello
Hi, I was looking on Thomas and his friends page and starting wondering in america what day is the fourth of July. So I went on your page to ask you and then I started wondering what your picture thing is. then I saw we have badges! Please may you answer all my questions :) JRCS 19:11, June 11, 2011 (UTC)


 * yes the one main picture on your user page :), also i ment what event happens on 4th July like is it Independance day or flag day or thanksgiving. I wanted to know because we have none of thoses events in the UK :) JRCS 20:16, June 11, 2011 (UTC)


 * Also a funny thing i noticed is since the badges have started there has been a sudden editing rush. but I fear alot of bad editing will be made or vandalism but that will be taken care of anyway :) JRCS 20:29, June 11, 2011 (UTC)


 * If things get too out of hand would you remove them JRCS 21:45, June 11, 2011 (UTC)

Badges?
Did you enable badges on the wiki? It's kinda cool, but I hope it won't cause any arguments. Toby7 Ding!Ding! 19:38, June 11, 2011 (UTC)


 * It'll probably encourage users to work harder, andd that's good! :) Toby7 Ding!Ding! 19:56, June 11, 2011 (UTC)


 * I agree. It's very cool! It really makes me want to edit more! But still, I won't edit any pointless edits because of it :) TheSodorSteamworks 21:43, June 11, 2011 (UTC)


 * I'll try to get as many as I can :) I have a few already. TheSodorSteamworks 22:02, June 11, 2011 (UTC)


 * I hope no users will be deactivated cause of the new badge system.<font face="Arial"> Mays Peep! Peep!   22:07, June 11, 2011 (UTC)

Yes that is what i ment.<font face="Arial"> Mays Peep! Peep!   11:54, June 12, 2011 (UTC)

Badges!?
Hi Thomasfan & what's up with the badges?!?! When I talked to ZEM he said that he didn't feel like turning on the badges but how are the badges activated now!? <font face="Arial"><font color="sky-blue">SirHandelFalcon  Toot! Toot!  00:54, June 12, 2011 (UTC)


 * User_talk:SirHandelFalcon Go to the section Re: Badges ;) <font face="Arial"><font color="sky-blue">SirHandelFalcon  Toot! Toot!  01:06, June 12, 2011 (UTC)

A Question about the new railway series book.
Thomasfan, do you know if the new Railway Series book will be sold in stores like Walmart? <font face="Arial"> A Season 5 Fan  "There are two ways of doing things: the Great Western way, or the wrong way."   02:10, June 12, 2011 (UTC)

WWII?
I'm just curious, does the movie coming out have anything to actually do with the war or is it only set in that time period? I haven't heard anything about the movie actually involving anything related to war, but since it's supposed to be targeted to an older audience I"m not sure. Please tell me what you know about it. Thanks :) 05:34, June 12, 2011 (UTC)


 * Also, I was wondering what you think about making a category for real engines (Talyllyn, King James I, etc.)? I counted and there are about 26 pages that fit into the category. I can easily make it and add the engines, if you'd like. 05:47, June 12, 2011 (UTC)


 * I was thinking maybe "Real Engines" or "Real World Engines" or "Real Named Engines", something like that. 22:16, June 12, 2011 (UTC)


 * The only one you missed that I found was D5705, and I added it. I was wondering, do you think that Duck, BoCo, and Oliver should be added since their numbers were real? I'm not sure since their real life counterparts were never actually called Duck, BoCo, or Oliver. Also, maybe add the railways too (Snowdon Mountain since those engines were added, same with Talyllyn its engines were added, etc.)? 00:18, June 13, 2011 (UTC)

Badges
How come, suddenly, badges have appeared on the wikia. They have not ever been here before. Why now? I just wondered, because, in my opinion, I don't like them. :) <font face="Arial"> Smoke Stack  Toot! Toot!   08:14, June 12, 2011 (UTC)

Is there a other, other red engine?
In the first Illustration its show Henry, 87546, The Red Engine, 98462, Gordon and Edward. I uploaded the Illustration in The Red Engine's gallery. Oliverandtoad13 pointed out that the other engine has different front valances 1st pic having Curved valance, black dome and the other Straight valance. If they are two different engines why doesn't the other red engine have his own page? Will there be a page for this engine? Or does bring us back to square one? Too add, can you make a page for the other red engine. I wouldn't even know what to name the article so it's best left up to you. <font face="Arial"> Madbomberfan Chuff! Chuff!  

Refernces
Hello,by anychance could we create a page involing refernces from other shows,Due to Thomas' fame and popularity? We have a Whole page for the Cleveland Show? From what I can Recall some I know is CSI so something with a Stepny Fridge magnet (Its on Youtube somewhere) and (Simpsons) Postcards from the Wedge: Brifly noted that when Bart and Millhouse Came across a Abandon Tram,they refered it as like a "Thomas The Tank Engine" and that there was no Sir Topham Hatt to Obay by, Hope this Helps!

New Doctor Who
Have you scene the new Doctor Who episode yet? What did you think of it? BTW today marks six months of me being a member here. :)

 * I was actually on the official site when I found out. I think Rory and Amy will still be in it as there is still some mystery by them. I hope they will be in it too because they are both really great characters. Toby7 Ding!Ding! 22:52, June 12, 2011 (UTC)
