THOMAS TRAINZ MODELS

[Dissolve4U2]

Ok so I just recently purchased TANE and have been looking fro Thoams models. Most have either been taken down or the sites arent being managed anymore. Why did all of them have to go down earlier this year? Whats the reason? And id like to find where to find downloads of all those models. If anyone also has a google drive full of them then that would be great too. Please help,

They're somewhat of a finnicky thing nowadays. From what I understand, there was something of a "reskin epidemic" wherein people were reskinning models and reuploading them without permission, which frustrated creators to the point of pretty much removing everything outright. You can still find traces of models, be they remnants of official sites, or straight unofficial ones. One of the only still running totally official ones, https://www.themarvellousmainlandmodelworks.com/ , has practically no DLS support, thus the models have many missing dependencies. They do have a discord for them, but most of the people on it couldn't care less to lend you a hand because of their BS rules. I eventually managed to scrounge up most of the dependencies from the pinned section. But, I digress. Here's a link to what I suspect is an unofficial reupload of Si3D's content. You should be able to get most engines and some rolling stock.
