    It's crazy how people go to Bachmann so often for Thomas models and not TOMIX, definitely a underrated company.

      I think it's a little difficult for people to get TOMIX because the models are all discontinued now. They're definitely amazing though. Thanks for your comment!

      ​@@DansTrainRoom Even crazier that such a great line got discontinued, might pick a TOMIX model up myself after this video (if I can find one for a good price).

      the Tomix stuff is scaled to TT3 which means in order to run them with other trains/wagons/brands is to regauge it to TT3, or you would have to run only Tomix stuff

      ​​@1471SirFrederickBanbury You can run them with anything as long as you're fine with it looking a little weird

    Henry’s probably my favorite Tomix model but James is definitely a close second! Totally not biased or anything haha nice review, looking forward to seeing more as always!

      Thanks again! Henry is definitely my favorite too. I hope Bachmann's Gordon will be just as amazing!

    Years back, i bought two sets of Annie snd Clarabelle and painted them red for branchline coaches.
    Found them more fitting for little layouts behind James.
    The extra trucks went to Percy's consit with a custom made brakevan made by splicing two n scale br brakes for the extra height.

    I found a Tomix James at a train show back in March. Unfortunately, I did not buy it. But I definitely found a gem there.

      A model exhibition I went to had the original Thomas, james, and Henry, the prices were quite steep, but I didn’t buy them as I already have basically everything, cool seeing them though

    • @DansTrainRoom

      Surprising that you found one in the wild outside of Japan! Thanks for watching!

    What are your thoughts on Bachmann's n scale Thomas models?

    • @DansTrainRoom
      @DansTrainRoom  День назад

      I think they're great! I have a few problems with them but overall those models are amazing too. Thanks for watching!

    Like I said with Thomas, Tomix James is probably the most accurate looking toy I've seen.

    • @DansTrainRoom
      @DansTrainRoom  День назад

      It's nearly flawless! One of my favorites for sure.

    The Japanese seem to have a knack for detail! I remember being so jealous of them for having way better Tomy Thomas models than us in the US

      Henry is the next TOMIX video on the way, but there might be some new Bachmann releases coming first 😉

    Can you remove the CGI TOMIX James face?

      You can remove any of the Tomix faces, they're not attached that strongly

    plastic wheels are bad because they slosh the dirt around the track. That's particularly bad with DC as it attracts dirt where as the AC used in DCC repels dirt.
