Happy 75th! Some new videos tonight! Here's a schedule for our upload times! (BST) I hope you can make it! youtube.com/playlist?list=… #SurprisePacket

If there was anything better than getting to see this on the big screen, it was getting to see the "real" SR engines! It is (in my opinion) the best place in the world, and I'm bitterly sad that I had to say goodbye to it. Here's to 160 more years!
TONIGHT at 6pm BST - The classic story from 'Four Little Engines' as you've NEVER seen it before! 'Sir Handel' presented in LIVE ACTION with narration by the Rev. W. Awdry himself, filmed at the Talyllyn Railway - where it all really happened. youtube.com/watch?v=3Z0hAb…
We'll have to do another one then - if only so you can have some variety at bedtime!
Take a few minutes to enjoy this wonderful recreation. A reading by the late Reverend Awdry of one of his many tales from the Isle of Sodor, bought to life in live action footage with a little animated assistance. It is an evocative tale from the past brought right up to date.

I`ll post my favorite pics from #AwdryEx5 at @TalyllynRailway! I`ll be posting vids later on! 1: Me & Duke 2: Me & Veronica Chambers (Daughter of Wilbert Awdry) 3: Recreating "Peter Sam And The Refreshment Lady" 4: One of my favorite moments, seeing Sir Handel shunting trucks!
They cooked a 5 star meal here

Oh yeah, another Fun Fact™️ about this: David Ventry who plays a wonderful rendition of the Thin Controller is actually the Chairman of the Board of Directors of the Talyllyn Railway Company! It's the little details that count 😉

What an absolute joy this is to watch. I genuinely wish we could see ALL the stories about the SR brought to life this way. What a wonderful and creative way to showcase a classic story. Fantastic job to everyone involved at the @TalyllynRailway

@10LEIGH10 @Expl_Cookie and the others really deserve recognition for their acting chops in this. The human element really added a dimension to this that has never really been felt in other adaptations. Well done
Still so surreal to see this actually adapting the stories in real life from the railway he volunteered on just bravo to all involved in making this happen #Thomas ❤️
Still waiting for the wikia to make me canonically Sir Handel’s Fireman🤨
Having the opportunity to be a part of this production was phenomenal. Seeing the reactions as it played during the Saturday evening event, on the BIG screen?!?! It was an indescribable feeling. We hope that you all enjoy watching ‘Sir Handel’ just as much as we did making it💜
My heart is so full. How do you top something like this? Absolutely made my day

This was an excellent watch. Thoroughly enjoyed all the work gone into it by everyone involved. Well done.

This might be one of the coolest things I’ve seen in a long time! Extraordinary video by the @TalyllynRailway! Well done to everyone involved! youtu.be/3Z0hAbbLNzU?si…
Since Sunday evening from the live stream, my little boy has watched this 11 times already (twice a day) He loves the story and really enjoys the realism of it, as he’s seen all the engines in real life. I think you’ll know what we will be watching at bed time. Great work all!
Absolutely incredible please watch and support this #Awdry

One week ago already since the Rev.W.Awdry’s daughter, Veronica Chambers, read a very warm and moving speech at the @TalyllynRailway to open the #AwdryExtravaganza “Some people don’t see the importance of little railways. But I think we all know better!” 🥲
Book 43. Extravagant Engines. A what if Richard had continued the series! This isn’t AI by the way. It’s the sketch photoshop filter that has been around for nearly 15 years!
I think we owe thanks to all who were involved in whatever way, but not least to @Expl_Cookie and @DanielLongEAP who took the germs of an idea and grew it into something spectacular. The hours they have put in behind the scenes to bring it together, you would not believe.
