Sorry to disappoint if anyone was expecting this of me, but I'm not producing a halloween production this year - been a bit too busy to properly plan something. ...that said, would you be willing to be patient for a possible - POSSIBLE - Christmas story?

Plas B is out again - this time for a ‘Goods Gala’ at the Wombourne Model Railway Show! Come say hello and see our fleet - bolstered by a couple of special guests…

Got a lot of feedback from my last Railway Life video, there seemed a large amount of people who really wanted shunting. After a gruelling amount of effort to get it working I can admit... ...okay maybe shunting is kinda fun #gamedev

I'll say, our government is inept, useless, and out of touch. But this is at least something, and something is better than nothing. I've done my part and stuck my name on the petition to parliament, which took about 30 seconds. You should too if you're sick of these self appointed content censors.

We’re at Telford MRS today with Plas B - running Viridian Timetable with the grand return of the home fleet’s black sheep - Blaencwm! Come see us and wish our returning little engine luck - or even just say hi!

Very exciting!!

This is starting now!! Please come and support!!

Was inspired by @vacenttest.bsky.social's post and with permission drummed this little number up...

"They're not actaully doing anything" Oh wouldn't you like to know 😏

The Itch/Steam thing dropped off the trending tab. Therefore it's time to remind you again to swamp the payment processors with more calls. If the call volume dies down in under a week they aren't going to learn their lesson. Make them regret it.

No rest for the wicked - I’m out at the Aldridge Transport Museum for their ‘Models in the Museum’ event - demonstrating Plas B once more! Come say hello if you’re in the area!

20 Minutes to Curtain Up!! If you’re looking for a nice way to kick back after Awdry Ex 5 - why not come and see what we’ve been cooking for you? We’ve sadly had to cut down to 5 videos due to external circumstances, but we hope you like what we have to show you!

Hello all! Please find enclosed the link to the playlist for the Surprise Packet! It's not final yet, as we're awaiting the remaining uploads from the team, but feel free to have a look, and take a guess as to what we're bringing you for the 80th this year... youtube.com/playlist?lis...

SURPRISE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Now here's something for yah! @84fstudios.bsky.social @valvegearvy.bsky.social

SURPRISA CADABRA!!!!!

SURPRISE!!! You thought I'd miss out on this opportunity? As if! In fact, we've got not just *one* new video for you, but EIGHT! How fitting for the 80th, eh? Team 84Y will be updating you on where to go in due time - so watch this space! We'll see you all at Awdry Ex...! - George

Man, Awdry Ex in one week? That's nuts. ...Say, who wants a release date on Sunday, by the way?

Does anyone know who it is that dresses as the Earl of Sodor for Awdry Ex? If you do, let him know I’ll be attending in fancy dress myself as the MSR’s Manager (TVS Style, that is). I think it might be quite fun to have a photograph of the Duke of Sodor handing off ‘our Duke’ to the MSR’s Manager…

Filming is 100% complete, I'd say! Unsure when this'll come out - my hope is 'eventually'. It'll be a while yet anyhow...

Happy Percy Day! ...what do you mean I'm a day late?

My first steam game ISLANDS & TRAINS has just released!! What began as a tiny hobby project has grown into something that I'm so thankful, excited and proud of. It would mean the world if you could give this a repost and try the game on Steam 💌🌻 s.team/a/1957760

With Awdry Ex coming up, I'm wondering how many people will come in fancy dress - seeing as it's the last one, I'm imagining there'll be quite the turnout for it...

I have seen the recent developments regarding Richard Jordan. Whilst I will not be commenting further, I feel the same as you all do - disgusted and betrayed. We must work to keep ourselves accountable, regardless of who we are. My heart goes out to his family and victims, and I hope they recover.

I know I jested about a new video in my 80th anniversary post yesterday but if I did make a video but ended up posting it super late (aka whenever it’s finished), would you still accept it as an 80th anniversary piece? Does the fandom still need or even want an 84F AudioVisual Novel these days?

You really thought I'd go without celebrating such an important event? No, not me. Never! Perhaps not as grand as my efforts 5 years ago, but life comes at you fast. Maybe another video is in order... Until then though, I wish you all the best, Thomas the Tank Engine. Thank you. For everything.

Special thanks to Rhosydd and Myfanwy for being the MVPs of the day - even Guy’s RTR stuff couldn’t hold a candle to their performance today! Blaencwm, you were also present.

Plas B is at the Blackheath MRS today! If you’re in the area, come and see us - the first members of our official ‘Home Fleet’ are on test!

Plas Brondanw’s first show of 2025! Come down to the Bournville Narrow Gauge Show and say hello!

Witchcraft. I don’t know how he’s done it, but he’s done it…! Top props to both @westcliffworkshops.bsky.social and @tomteelegend.bsky.social!

i was let go from my job with no notice. i'd be very grateful for anything in the mean time. if you cannot afford to donate, please share. love you all.

Slow progress but progress all the same on a proper model railway table…

Quick heads up folks - I have NUKED my Twitter account. Ain't staying there no more. This place is nicer. I like this place. I'll be chatting in this place far more often.

Ok, folks - I need some assistance for something, but it's a strange request. Does anyone on here have any experience with coding anything involving the LEGO Mindstorms EV3 kit? If so, please let me know, as I need some advice/assistance in creating something... unusual.

Happy New Year folks! As I said last Saturday, I am taking a hiatus from streaming - I plan to make my streaming setup much more polished (as you all deserve!), so I need some time away to get that all together (alongside my buddy Max who's helping with some new assets...)

Tonight I host my last stream of the year - and the last stream before my hiatus! More on that in tonight's session - so for the last time in 2024, come for the ride! www.twitch.tv/84f_studios

Break out your magnifying glasses - we're back with Loco Motive! www.twitch.tv/84f_studios

Back with a bit more of a random stream tonight - Bomber Crew! Come join the nonsense! www.twitch.tv/84f_studios

Pssst. Broken Wings is public again. :3

A pal of mine has made a train-themed horror game! Please go and support it! I plan to play it on stream at some point relatively soon - not sure when, but soon!!

LIVE IN FIVE!

Have your tickets ready - all aboard for First Class Murder!!! Alix, Max and I are playing a new game called Loco Motive - a pixelated murder mystery on a train... What could possibly go wrong? www.twitch.tv/84f_studios
