Childhood-2009
I have been a fan of TTTE for majority of my life. I am not sure what age I became a fan of TTTE, but I think my first introduction was most likely with a Best of Thomas VHS. I collect Wooden Railway through that time until the mid 2000s. I moved on from TTTE in late 2007 or early 2008 because I got tried of HiT's changes and I disliked Engine Roll Call. I got back into TTTE in 2009 because I remembered how great Gordon was. Shortly, I discovered Season 12 andI turned back again because the added CGI scarred me. Most of my TTTE DVDs were sold in a garage sell, I was able to find two of my childhood DVDs (Hooray For Thomas and Milkshake Muddle). I still have all my childhood Woodlen Railway merch.

2013-May 2016
In November 2013, I learned about the 2007 Lead Paint Recalls. (Recalls is one of my special interests.) I did not view TTTE highly, but mostly remembered it for the crashes.

June 2016-2018
After the stress of school, I decided to give TTTE another chance because I saw a video of TTTE crashes for the thirty anniversary for the show. I watched some classic series episodes and realized what made the show so special when I was younger. Apparently the HiT Era made me view the series differently. I joined the wiki in late June. I also never knew TTTE was orignally a book series. I learned more about Awbry and his son. TTTE then became a special interest of mine. My favorite character changed from Gordon to Thomas. Then Mattel announced Big World, Big Adventures which caused my love for the show to die out. I am autistic, and I feared the show would be different for the new generation of autistic children who would grow up with TTTE. I still liked TTTE but not as much as I used to.

May 2019-
My interest in the series ignited again. Despite what Mattel did to TTTE, my love for the series grew stronger. In the summer, I started collecting TrackMaster (my first engines being Edward and Percy), Thomas Minis, and Ertl. I began to watch more CGI episodes and other HiT era episode. TTTE also influenced me to listen to The Beatles more. Now they are one of my favorite bands. I started reading the Railway Series in October. The series is now starting to be a positive influence (I mean it was before in 2016, but I feel that the positivity is greater).
