These sets are so much fun to watch. I was working a way to combine not just THomas Big Loader and Thomas Big Big Loader, but also the Mail Delivery Big Loader. I know how to attach it, I just to get the right transition tracks. Will look for some on eBay. The we will make Thomas’ Big Big Big Big Loader and Mail Delivery!
Have had problems with both of my Liionel Thomas the Tank Engine sets. Have to use standard batteries and not rechargeable in the remote and one remote doesn’t work at all. Upon doing research it appears that there is a manufacturing defect with the remotes. Ththat itey tend to have a continuity problem between the batteries and the brains of the remote. I’m about to test it out in a 3rd that picked up at Bargsin Hunt. It appears that it is a returned item and I’m guessing it was returned because it did not work. I even. I actually forgot about a 3rd one that I exchanged at Tuesday Morning. I guy at the store opened I fresh pack of batteries to test it and sure enough he pile not get it to work either!
So we will try it again!
So this is my most popular video to date. Percy is my favorite Thomas & Friends Character and we have more. Plus more on the way after winning the Leokimvideo Percy Giveaway:
The Thomas & Friends collection has become my most popular videos on my Train Tsar Fun channel. I have been searching for the best deals on the Bachmann HO Scale items. Actually found this set with Harold and Sir Tophamm Hatt on clearance at Hobby Lobby so I got it even though I had the smaller version of this set already. I didn’t have the best location for filming at the time of this video. Things have gotten better around here. So look for more Thomas & Friends HO Scale videos with reviews and play – and accidents!
Amazon is a good source for Thomas & Friends:

Percy had become my favorite Thomas & Friends character. This was my 1st video with the Lionel version. More videos to come.
Interestingly, some of the funniest mishaps (unplanned) have come from Percy in my collection. He won the train battle from the Trackmaster trains. He made a daring track change on my HO layout. Sadly, he has a defective coupler on my Lionel version, but that makes for some funny moments too since he leaves the trucks behind! I use tape to prevent that.
