Mine is definitely Rheneas Viaduct, I love most of the narrow gauge sets but I really like the sense of scale with this one as well as the great scenery that surrounds the railway.
Hello all! We (u/MasterAinley and I) have been working behind the scenes to make some small tweaks to the sub to hopefully improve it for you all so I thought I'd put together a post to share what's changed and what else we've got planned.
- User flairs are now available for you to choose from, including every Big Finish Doctor and some popular quotes and in-jokes, many of which were chosen by you guys
- Sharing images in comments has now been enabled which will hopefully be useful for things like sharing cover art when 'leaving recommendations from the sale below!' (Please remember all sub rules still apply to images in comments where applicable so don't use pictures of Nardole to bully people) Please let me know that this has been enabled successfully by sharing pictures of who you'd like Jackie Tyler to cross over with next in the comments
- We've got a banner image to make the sub look extra fancy - oooooh
- More user flairs including companions, Torchwood characters, non-Doctor Who Big Finish characters and more
- Revamped post flairs to make filtering the sub easier
- An updated sub wiki to help direct users to some of the excellent guides people have posted to the sub relating to frequently asked questions and similar
- Opportunities to share your views and ideas on the above as we come to working on them
(Some of these may be 'coming soon' in a similar way to Charlotte Pollard Series 3 - I mostly play around with sub stuff when I get some free time at weekends so some of the above may take a while, but will get to them when we can!)
THANK YOU for making this sub lovely to moderate and participate in - we generally have very few rule violations and most of the time when they do occur they're not done maliciously. There are loads of great contributors to the sub who make it a friendly and welcoming place for Big Finish veterans and newcomers alike, so thanks for helping make this community great - we hope you enjoy it as much as we do!
Special thanks to u/JakeM917 for all the work put into the Podcast Notes (the greatest weekly breakdown of Whoniverse news on the web!)
Finally, please feel free to leave any glowing praise, suggestions or feedback below (if we disagree we'll just ignore you like the power-mad mods that we are, mwahahaha). We'll be continuing our 'Sales' and 'New Release' posts to help people stay informed so we hope they're useful to people!

As much as I love the narrow gauge engines, Duncan does seem to have a slight death wish in his disregard for general safety advice so I don't think I'd want to hop into his cab.
We're planning to add some user flairs to the sub and before doing so wanted to hear you guys' ideas of the types of flairs you'd be interested in. No guarantees we'll include everything suggested but we'll add what we reasonably can!
Some ideas to get started:
- Iconic quotes from Big Finish Audios (e.g. 'Zagreus sits inside your head')
- Popular characters and Doctors (e.g. 'The Eighth Doctor', 'Charley Pollard')
- Big Finish in-jokes (e.g. 'You've got this', 'Big Finish Lunch')
Feel free to share ideas based on the above or other themes!
My first thought was Gordon as he generally runs during the daytime, doesn't have to do fiddly shunting, you'd get to see many different parts of the island and it'd be fun to go fast. Plus, I don't think he'd be *too* irritating to work with unlike some of the engines. However, given his high speeds, his crashes would be pretty dangerous... So I'd probably opt for Emily for a hopefully calm and generally safe work life.
