I don't understand why in the tv series they made Knapford the main terminus on Sodor, replacing Tidmouth and made Elsbridge Thomas' junction.

Maybe because the producers didn't want to copy the books too much and wanted to be original with how their locations looked such as Knapford, Tidmouth, Elsbridge and Crovan's Gate.

Well in my illustrations, I'm gonna correct all the flaws the tv series had by giving the stations their proper names, Donald and Douglas painted blue, Toby with blue side plates, Bill and Ben their proper sizes and all the Skarloey Railway engines paintedΒ red.

Well for me Donald and Douglas can go either blue or black. The color of Toby's side plates don't really matter for me. Bill and Ben actually look better in their classic series model form but they are oversized in the CGI series. The Skarloey Railway looks more colorful with having the engines multi-colored, plus the Talyllyn Railway engines have multi-colors. But that's just my views as I know we all have our own opinions.

Now this station should be used for the various series on youtube, makes the stories look very realisticΒ

What a beautiful seaside setting! Love the use of the LB&SCR building! I'm sure Thomas would approve of that...

You've captured the essence of this station perfectly; it's interesting to see the RWS version of Knapford . I believe that the closest the TV series has gotten to the look of this would be Maron Station (Note: I'm referring to how it appeared in Season 6 onwards when it acquired curved platforms as before that it always had straight platforms)

It's a definite step up from MSTS! It's got it's pros and cons - if you're looking for a really serious railsim, I'd go for Train Simulator 2014. While Trainz 12 doesn't run as well as TS2014, the route-creator is really user-friendly, and there's lots of free DLC. Food for thought!
