As much i don't like the possibility of the new "Ride Along" music video implying that Thomas and Percy will be voiced by kids, i have to admit, this bit was pretty funny and very james

Note: The reason i say that child voice actors is still just a possibility is because everyone else is also voiced by the same kids, so they might be doing it because it's these toy shorts.

Just wanted to share this GOLIATH of a locomotive from Chile!

If i recall correctly, it's known as the Type 100 and was built in Germany. All pictures by me. Also i apologize for the people i had to censor in the third image. Also some of the pictures included are taken from the same angle on different years.

Looking for UK Heritage railway recomendations.

So next year i am planning a UK trip with my family, and as any young railfan, my main interest is in locomotives. However, the UK trip is unique in many ways, firstly, there is A LOT of them in the UK, and secondly, i grew up with Thomas, so of course i have a soft spot for british steam locomotives.
However, as i won't be spending too many days in the UK, i can pick only 1 or 2 railways to visit. In reality i just want to go to a place where i can see British steam locomotives in action, and hopefully ride behind one of them. My original picks were the Tallylyn in Wales, and the Bluebell, but one of my friends who has gone to the Bluebell told me it was a little underwhelming. My current picks are either the Tallylyn and the East Lancashire Railway (Mostly because of their Ex-LMS locomotives, specially the Pug since i'm a big fan of itty-bitty locomotives) or the Tallylyn and the Watercress Line.
However i thought it would be best to ask people who are from/have been to the UK for recommendations.
Note: Visiting a Heritage Railway is important to me as there are no heritage railways in my own country.
Thanks in advance!

Some corrections I'll have to make in the future include replacing an eye and fixing some of the messier bits of the paint.

Eventually I would love to redo these with an airbrush or spray paint.
