Mister No's Pics & Vids

Regarding the size, AEG Annie and Clarabel (and the rest of the AEG rolling stock for that matter) would possibly fit push along engine models, and for motorized engines it would be good for the manufacturer to consider producing more appropriate (larger) rolling stock. Current wagons are all borrowed from TM2 and therefore look dwarfed.

Yes, it's odd they made a step backwards and reverted to "boxcar coaches", but the truth is that the coaches from TM2 "Thomas, Annie & Clarabel" pack don't look good with AEG Thomas at all. These coaches are at least 1.5 centimetres too low, too! In fact, there are generally no appropriate rolling stock for the AEG engines at all. 



As for the Annie and Clarabel, their names have been replaced with ornate patterns, and people speculate it is most likely so that the English names for the characters will not appear in other dubs. But I doubt that; I think they just avoided any inscriptions, because the show is now intended for the pre-school kids.

I think the flap on the red wagon could not be shorter, because it has to hit the cradle in order to load the crate. And the cradle couldn't be any lower, because it would be hit by the engine, and not just the specialized wagon.



It's not too high for a standard bridge, like that one that comes with the set, but some "traditional" tunnels could be a problem, but they would be a problem for AEG engines too, so... In general, anything lower than approx. 7.5 cm (measured from the top of the rail to the edge of the tunnel, bridge etc.) should not be used with AEG. Standard TM2 supports will do.
