For nearly four decades, this show has survived through thick and thin. From nearly being forgotten and hidden away - to becoming a highly acclaimed cult series. Happy anniversary, TUGS. You've changed my life for the better and I cannot thank you enough for it. Here's to more years to come. #tugs

The 2nd Magorail set has arrived and I think there is just about enough 'track' to do the raised track section. I don't think many modelled a raised track before. There's one I saw in a photo @tugstheexhibition.bsky.social took that I've been using for reference, but can't think of any others.
