Was going to wait until I had his stories done but today seems like a good day to show off a loco with a purple hue. Here's Ivo! 💜💜 I like red Ivo Hugh, but wanted to brave something new. Lining needs tidying and yet to finish his faces, but otherwise he's ready to be useful.

Last Sunday I proposed to Holly at last, and I'm thrilled she said yes!💍It's no secret I'm the luckiest person around to be marrying such a wonderful other half, and I couldn't be happier. Thank you to London's @The_Globe for permitting my most stressful performance on stage!🥳

Today has been so much fun seeing the Talyllyn Railway come to life with people who grew up with Awdry's loveable characters. Huge congrats in order to Luke, Tim and the rest of the team making it happen. Was an honour to share a few words on the livestream and play trains.

10 years ago, on my birthday, we popped by Bluebell Railway to get something from the gift shop. Stepney HAPPENED to be on one of its rare outings when we got there and it really felt like it was meant to be. I think this is the last time I saw 55 in steam, all the more special

This opening shot is far more impressive than I remember. Surely one of the longest in the series? The lights and reflections, the quiet yard, the subtle whisps of steam and eye movements, wagons and coaches scattered about, it's all lovely. Long shot, but straight to the point.
