Nearly 110 years since the Northern Western Railway was formed, engine number 1 ‘Thomas’ is still going strong. The railway’ current controller, Mrs Emily Hatt, still takes the time to personally check on all her engines. Finally drawn our number 1 🩵 #rws #therailwayseries #thomasandfriends

Tidmouth 1915 sees A mysterious new arrival. Despite some initial confusion, The Fat Director is quite impressed with the new acquisition… Colour version of last post. #rws #therailwayseries #thomasandfriends

Tidmouth 1915 sees A mysterious new arrival. Despite some initial confusion, The Fat Director is quite impressed with the new acquisition… Had to draw him eventually, but thought i”d try something different with him. #rws #therailwayseries #thomasandfriends

One afternoon, NWR number 4 ‘Gordon’ sits idle and cold-boilered by the coal stage in preparation for a series of specials later in the week. Took a couple attempts, but managed to get Gordon done. Quite happy with how this one turned out. #rws #therailwayseries #thomasandfriends

A regular sight on the North Western Railway. Engine number 3 ‘Henry’ awaits orders to head out of Tidmouth harbour with the Flying Kipper. Slightly bodged the Tender and Vans, but think i got the Stanier look well, overall. #rws #therailwayseries #thomasandfriends

Gordon has been away. He was on the mainland hauling railtours to promote 80 years of the books that made the NWR famous worldwide. He arrived home earlier this year, just in time for the Sudrian celebrations to begin! #thomasandfriends #railwayseries

Thought it time to actually draw one of my own Character, The grumpy Lion, for a change. Still getting used to the more cartoony styling, but think its working out fine.

Dilly had been missing for some time. The Engines of the little western were getting worried. Until one morning, Donald Pulled into Haultraugh with a local, and had quite the surprise waiting for him… Originally doodled in January. I need to draw some more engines in the future #railwayseries
