Grind coal and coal into a fine powder until the dough is black as Gordon's heart. Bake at 200° (F or C, doesn't matter) for 12 hours while muttering 'bother these buns' under your breath #DoITalkAboutCoalTooMuch? #OfCourseNotCakeBotYouAreAdoredByYour8BillionFollowers #ShoutOutsToMy8BillionFollowers

I've been thinking a lot about that bumper sticker which says "everything looks like a conspiracy theory when you don't understand how anything works" and folks it's pretty obvious to me that the people in power right now have absolutely no desire to understand how anything works.

These two illustrations were commissioned to me by @brightonterrier.bsky.social of the L&PR's No. 1, Brigitte and on the right of the unique Redcap engines designed by @echoesaythglen.bsky.social and you guys should seriously follow give them

Some recent document scans from the L&P including the gradient profile, winter and summer timetables printed onto pocket-sized cards, and a poster describing the rates of charge for freight traffic. #L&P

Ooooohhh we got the makings of an Eryland original finally!!! 👀 The GCER F1 Class Built in 1879 and designed by fictional Scottish engineer, Sir Francis Marsden, she's the No. 3 engine of the railway. She's one of the passenger engines that run the Ayrith Branch Line.

Finally is a remake of Joe’s Shotton Steelworks shunter used in Cliffside Railway, probably my favorite engine from that game. I initially just wanted to give it accurate curved cab windows and hazard stripes, but ended up completely remaking the model instead.

Next are my models based on the Giant’s Causeway and Bushmills Tramway, their Andrew Barclay “Shane” and an engine shed based on their own. Shane was my first experience making lining using Adobe Illustrator and I’m very pleased with it. County Donegal railcar by Joelego3.

Don’t normally sketch TV series art, but when something strikes me…

The Cranky Crane prop is the size of a small shed, and has been stolen from this year's #CraneCon by me! As soon as I buy a big enough knife, I will spread it on toast for tea. #thomaspropcrimewave

A LEGO model of HS2 Old Oak Common station designed and built by Bricks McGee is on display at Paddington station util tomorrow evening. #lego #legotrains

Going into December soon. Not sure if I'll have enough time to do any winter themed art, what with work etc, but here's a digital painting from a few years ago I'm still quite fond of. Ashington Colliery in the50s/60s.

It’s Thanksgiving Day in America today. It’s also our first Throwback Thursday post here on Bluesky as we’re not running trains at the moment. Here we have some images of locomotives that aren’t with us anymore. #tbt

After watching Terrier55Stepney‘s beautiful Ivo Hugh videos (go check em out!!) I realize that British Thomas fans seem to most understand how to make a railway feel interconnected with the people and towns around it. 🧵

bluesky in november:

Twitter (X) will reportedly no longer let users opt out of letting their tweets be used to train their AI system — Grok Goes into effect November 15

Once in a while, I check Twitter and immediately notice the contrast here. The likes are just numbers on Twitter, the followers are just numbers. Here, they’re people. People interacting, caring and loving. Numbers don’t matter, but people do. Thank you, BlueSky, for understanding that. 💙✨
