Model Changes
For STMY, a massive visual change occurred. Originally, WildNorWester had intended to continue using the SI3D TV series-accurate models, but after creating a Railway Series-accurate Henry, and on the suggestion of several SI3D Forum members, he decided to recreate the entire main cast in their RWS forms. The characters who received new models were Thomas, Edward, Henry, Gordon, James, Percy, Toby, Duck, Bill, and Ben, Oliver also received a new livery, as did Sheffield, and Lily was given NWR lettering and a new number. Daisy's model was replaced by a RWS-accurate model by TheGermanEngine. The SI3D Arlesdale models were also replaced by his own models built using blueprints of their Ravenglass & Eskdale counterparts, sans Frank, who was a commission from Sean O' Conner; the model, however, was not ready for season one, so a stand-in from Crovan's Gate Works (now closed; the model can still be found through a Google search) was used.
