This Month, I started getting into something you'll never guess. Thomas and Friends. I hope nobody judges me because this site is supposed to be a nonjudgemental place. I actually have hardly been watching any real episodes, instead, I've been watching machinimas done in a video game called Trainz: A New Era, as well as the occasional video filmed in Trainz 2019. They are mostly for older fans. There are several fan-series' that I might recommend. There is NWR Origins, (NWR being short for Northwestern Railway, which is the standard-gauge railway of Sodor) which is a take on the origins of Sodor's railway and the engines that we know and love who work on it, and then there is the series that NWR Origins is a prequel to, Engines of Sodor, which takes place in 21st century Sodor. Both series' are by Thomas1Edward2Henry3 and both are now finished. Then there's also Victor Tanzig's Stories of Sodor, which is based on Thomas and Friends' sister show, Tugs. There's also a channel called Rheneas Productions. He has a ghost-themed series called Sodor's Supernatural. I myself am thinking of taking up Trainz machinimas and making my own spinoff series called Pegasus Tales. It takes place on Pegasus Island, an island in California, America that is very similar to Sodor in that it is crawling with Railway lines and it uses outdated engines, including steam engines. I already have commissioned and OC for that series. His name is Tristan, and he is a hybrid between a Soo Line L-1 class (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Soo_Line_L-1_class) and a Pennsylvania Railroad class K4 (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Penns.....lroad_class_K4). However, he surprisingly belongs (or once belonged) to the legendary Union Pacific. I wanted to make him the Pegasus Railway counterpart of Henry, who, until he was rebuilt into an LMS Black Five after his infamous accident, used to be a hybrid like Tristan (According to Thomas1Edward2Henry3 in NWR origins episode 3, Henry is a cross between a GNR A1 (the same class as Gordon, with Gordon being from a special modified class that Nigel Grasley developed as an experiment) and a GNR C1). You can expect the WIP of Tristan by  Kumata this Saturday! Feels so good to get that all off my chest. And if you have watched any of the aforementioned Thomas-themed YouTube channels above (or have checked them out after I mentioned them), what are your opinions on them? Even if you haven't, are you a Thomas fan as well? And what do you think of my new interest?
