Sparta WTF Base (The Fastest Sparta Base on YouTube)TB76 Returns2026-09-21 | Sparta WTF Base (The Fastest Sparta Base on YouTube)Arthur remembers his Brother (Trainz Stories Shorts)TB76 Returns2024-10-11 | The idea of this story when I visited the Keighley and Worth Valley Railway, and saw their original Boi, LMS Ivatt 2-6-2T 41241. So, while at the Steamworks with Skarloey, who is remembering his brother, Talyllyn on the Talyllyn Railway in Wales. Arthur, after dealing with Diesel who barges in with supplies then begins to speak about a brother of his, named Simon, who he worked with back on the Mainland, before he went to Sodor. Simon was worried that he wouldn't be able to see Arthur again, but luck was on Simon's side. He was bought by the K&WVR and then came to Keighley under his own steam, and has been a stalwart ever since, even having Arthur come over to the K&WVR to see his brother! Plus some footage of "Simon" recorded at Keighley! Thanks to SodorBrony for the facemesh of Simon

Happy 40th anniversary to the Thomas and Friends TV Show, and what shaped mine and many other children's childhoods! I am normally a Michael Angelis Pooper, but for this occasion, I am doing a Ringo Starr YouTube Poop! So here is my YTP of the first episode! Thumuz (I mean Thomas) is a little bitch towards Ghurdun (I mean Gordon), who after going too far, decides to ultimately take Thumuz from Behind!! What will happen!Waltz of Marie, Olga and the Chinchillas (Marie and Olgas theme Extended by AI)TB76 Returns2024-10-06 | Original Theme: soundcloud.com/thunderbirds76-returns/cheesy-waltz So, for my next Extended Theme with AI, using Suno AI, we go to the Czech Republic straight from Austria (no Habsburg mentions here) to the two rich Chinchilla loving sisters, Marie and Olga Benešová (the cousins to Ivana), who are the kindest and sweetest (even towards Dolfy) of all my OCs, plus the tallest and most well endowed (obviously), standing at 176cm for Marie and 178cm for Olga. Well they are basically expies of Tsumugi from K-ON! and Miyuki from Lucky Star, for example their blonde hair and glasses. This montage contains footage from their appearences on both mine and SodorBrony's videos (although Marie's earlier appearences are omitted due to them being of lower quality). I included the violin seeing as Marie plays the Violin and Olga plays the Viola, which suits them well IMO. Also appearing are their little rodent friends, their Pet Chinchillas, such as Bobínek and Waffles, and their two Pokémon, Minccino and Cinccino. Also you will see some AI Generated pictures of them and the Chinchillas (even a Chinchilla in Prague, their home city) done using Bing AI.Fenchurch at Keighley!

Can you spot Hunslet in the cab?Hitler finds K9 in the BunkerTB76 Returns2024-09-27 | So not long after Brum chased Hitler out of the Bunker, someone else has come to visit The Failüre. This time it is the The Doctor's Robotic Dog himself, K9, who under the Doctor's instructions is to analyse. However, Dolfy is not best pleased, but K9 gets on better with his fellow informer Günsche. Meanwhile, the 3 Musketeers of Skaro, Dalek Halm, Dalek Sec and Dalek Rube are watching from the barn of a small farm (that is before Rube got distracted by a Toyota Yaris, and Brainrot guy paid the other two an unwelcome visit)

SFX from Team Fortress 2Skarloey the Brave but it is narrated by Willie Rushton...with a twist....#TTTE #ParodyTB76 Returns2024-09-23 | This is an upload of something I originally did on Twitter, and where the algorithm blessed me on this occasion, where I did a Willie Rushton narration of Skarloey the Brave using Uberduck (those were the days), but it is a bit different, as it is pointing out that Skarloey is being a complete attention whore. Original and full version: https://x.com/TB76_Returns/status/1456255761814720512YTP: Olivers war on BrainrotTB76 Returns2024-09-19 | So time for another YouTube Poop, and to address something that seems to bring later members of my generation into disrepute (having been born in 1997 makes me Gen Z, but I am early Gen Z), yes, Brainrot (what I also addresed in my latest Downfall Parody). So, when Oliver's war on the Brainrot trucks after spouting all the Skibidi Gyatt Rizz nonsense backfires, he has to face up against ScruffScruff, the lead truck responsible for all the Brainrot on Sodor. Will he win?Not so Mellow Yellow (Trainz Shorts)TB76 Returns2024-09-11 | So this is something that I thought of when I picked up the upgraded TSI Sir Handel (as well as Skarloey and Peter Sam) after working on Rogue Roller, when I found Sir Handel had a Proteus Livery. So...I whipped this up. Skarloey has had a new coat of paint, much to the jealousy of Sir Handel, who's dirty and dusty from working at the Quarry. But Skarloey hatches a plan, but there is conveniently a shortage of Sir Handel's blue paint! So when Rheneas and Sir Handel get sent to the works for a new coat of paint...what happens?

When George is working around the Skarloey Railway in 1984, the Skarloey Engines are not best pleased. Skarloey quickly shuts down Sir Handel's attempts to deal with George, so Duncan takes it up on himself to put George in his place by shouting insults at George as he passes by. However, this ends up backfiring and causing George to damage the railways and then derailing Duncan. But when he's finished, Mark the Welsh Class 47 who is delivering fuel from the Mainland, which includes a tanker for the Skarloey Railway ends up crossing paths with George, but unlike an incident that Mark had in Llanelli 4 years earlier, it would end in disaster for both him and George, but more so for the latter.

And just like that, they're gone, towards Liverpool!Ringing at St Chad, Uppermill, Saddleworth and Holy Trinity, HolmfirthTB76 Returns2024-08-17 | Two towers that I have featured on this channel and rung at, but today, I have rung at them both again. In addition we rung a lot of Plain Hunt on 6 and 8 as a bit of help to the learner ringers of Saddleworth and the surrounding ares, and some joined us at Holmfirth too. The bells at Saddleworth are a Rudhall/Mears and Stainbank ring of 8 tuned to G, and the tenor weighing in at 10cwt. Holmfirth on the other hand are a Taylor Ring of 8 tuned to F♯ with the tenor weighing in at 12cwt. It was a good day of ringing, although the only complications of the day for me was Huddersfield Station being closed for the TP Route upgrade, and having to get a replacement bus to Brighouse with Football Fans, after Huddersfield Town beat Stevenage 2-1.Wolfgang the Austrian Engines Theme (Extended by AI Version)TB76 Returns2024-08-13 | After people including my friend @Tomiato64 have been using Suno AI to generate AI Generated extensions to music, I thought I would have a go myself, and I chose the theme for my Austrian TTTE OC, Wolfgang the Siemens Taurus, the star of A most Musical engine, and Hans' saviour in The Märklin and The Monster. From 0:31 onwards is the AI Generated extension, keeping in the theme of Austrian Folk Music that Wolfgang's theme is based on, and I ended up really liking how it turned out, so I ended up uploading it here on YT. I even went to the length of recording some shots on Trainz and on the Semmeringbahn route on TSW4 (which is better than Voralberg, still wouldn't touch the 4024 with a barge pole due to the wrong sounds).

So, here is a comparison between the original DTG BR 101 and the TSG Expert BR 101. Which one do you like better, me persoanlly, my only criticism is the horn on the Expert BR 101, other than that, I prefer the Expert sounds.Me narrating AI Generated My Thomas Story Library Books be like....TB76 Returns2024-08-10 | So yeah.....I just recorded myself doing the narrations for 4 of these cursed AI Generated My Thomas Story Library books, as if it was my live reaction, and I uploaded the raw video to Twitter/X where you can find it:https://x.com/TB76_Returns/status/1822317903019938212 And here, I just completed it.....with the usual inability to wipe arse jokes as well...

Many trainspotters come to Sodor for to see the many trains that live on the island. However, there are some bad apples among the trainspotters, which they attemps dangerous things such as climbing signal poles for a better view. This day, a teenager who was underpeforming on Social Media was determined to get more views and clout, so visited the Cement Works where Fergus works to get a filming permit. Although Fergus sticks by his motto of 'Do it Right' and always is keen to correct the teenager, he could not possibly predict what he would do next, and cause him to come off the rails, all for views. All for a Social Media post....all for clout....but not the way to do it....

Pip and Emma who are Rebecca's closest friends have to leave for the Mainland for a short while, so Rebecca has to be left with Dudley, who was the only engine that The Fat Controller could find to cover the shortfall. Having known the history of him on the railway, Rebecca is less than pleased to see him, but she takes comfort in a nightly visit by sheep owned by Farmer Williamson, who all enjoy visiting her in her shed. But, Dudley hatches a secret plan to get back at Rebecca for the sheep annoying him, and it is up to Farmer Williamson and Rebecca to serve karma.

Murdoch is curious about a load that Edward brought over to Knapford, which is a memorial to five members of The French Resistance that trained for Railway services on Sodor, Jean-Paul Bosard (motivated by the death of his brother Gaston), Raymond Durelles, Pierre Verrecq, Marc Chirac and Augustin-Luc Hervé. Edward then would tell Murdoch the story about 'Les cinq hommes' and their training on Sodor. When it was time for D-Day, the men would go over to their homeland to drive trains for the advancing allied armies, and then would serve for SNCF, except for Raymond who would unfortunately be KIA'd near Reims by the retreating German forces. Murdoch is mesmerized by the whole story of the five Frenchmen who trained for the service of their country, and the liberation of France. This is where you hear my French abilities, and if I make any mistakes, then désolé.

The first clip is a pair of 323s deparing University towards Reddich, and I got on the Lichfield bound train to New Street. The second clip is the interior shot of the Class 323 departing Five Ways before New Street.

I did considering having a grab at Llandaff the previous night, but I was having my dinner at the hotel. It was at the tail end of the session and they were about to finish, so I was lucky to have a few call changes with me on the 7th. The bells are a 24cwt ring of 10 tuned to D housed in a detached tower, cast in 1928 and the two trebles in 2001. What a pleasure it was, even if it was short. Who knows, I may ring here again.Haverfordwest St Mary Church Clock Chimes 5 oclockTB76 Returns2024-05-03 | These clock chimes are a bit quiet, not helped by a passing car when I was recording, although the hour strike is louder. St Mary's Church in Haverfordwest strikes 5 o'clock, with Westminster Chimes. The bells here are a 19cwt ring of 8 tuned to E♭/E cast by Thomas Bayley and Mears and Stainbank. Unfortunately, the church was locked on the day of my visit, as I guess there were no volunteers on hand on that day (the same happened with St John the Baptist in Cardiff), and I was on my way to St Davids anyway. Shame really.Carmarthen St Peter Church Clock Chimes (Westminster Chimes Only)TB76 Returns2024-05-03 | Second Clock Chimes video from my short break in Wales is St Peter's Church in Carmarthen. Although, only the Westminster Chimes are heard, as for some reason, there was no hour strike (funnily enough while visit Cardiff Castle the previous day, the City Hall did the full Westminster Chimes but didn't do the hour for some reason). The bells here are a 15cwt Ring of 8 tuned to E, cast by Taylors, Rudhall and the Tenor by Charles Carr.Llandaff Cathedral Clock Chimes 4 oclockTB76 Returns2024-05-02 | While on my short break to Wales, this is the first of three Clock Chimes I recorded, the first off being Llandaff Cathedral, Cardiff. Llandaff is the Cathedral of Cardiff, the place was once seperate but now a suburb of Cardiff. The bells here are a 1992 Whitechapel Ring of 12 tuned to E♭ with the Tenor weighing 24cwt. The bells hang in the Jasper Tower, which is the tower on the left side (or North Tower), on the other tower with the spire, there are no bells. I did consider going to Practise night for a Grab at the Cathedral but I was going to have my dinner at the Hotel at the time.TfW Class 231 Departs Cardiff Central (one of the more unusual trains I have rode) #cardiff #tfwTB76 Returns2024-05-01 | ...Cardiff Pierhead Clock Mechanism Striking (but it strikes the wrong hour!) #cardiff #clockTB76 Returns2024-04-30 | ...YTP: Michael Angelis has a Think ComplexTB76 Returns2024-04-29 | This is a YouTube Poop that I decided to whip up for what would of been Michael Angelis' 80th Birthday today, and a little something before I go off to Cardiff for a short break.

Shunter, Brandon Polley, HL2, and Chinchilla sounds from their respective sourcesGordon and the High Peak (Trainz Stories Skits)TB76 Returns2024-04-20 | A random something that I decided to whip up for 4/20 although I don't do or condone doing drugs like marijuana, as Mr Mackey from South Park put it, Drugs are Bad, Mkay. But here, Gordon is having a rest when he is disturbed by a Class 46 Diesel who is high on weed, known as the High Peak, not to be confused by a place in Derbyshire with the same name. The High Peak then harrasses Gordon until he runs away much to Edward and Duck's bemusement. I had to bring out the MLG in this Trainz Stories Skit. I wanted to get something done before I went off to Wakefield for the afternoon.

Oh and not forgetting Mei Xiong the Pancham and Țeapă the Hedgehog. This time, Dolfy and the boys have to navigate through the haunted house, encounter many horrors, and even Amanda pricking herself on Țeapă's quills! Then at last, it is time to for the rescue, but will they make it out alive once again? And SodorBrony this time edits the Behind the Scenes antics, making for something slightly different, but still amusing.

Just as a bit of fun since my next Downfall Parody is experiencing a few delays, I thought I would do my own playful descriptions of the Train Sim World routes in 10 words or less.
