Puffy Pistons!

Based on my original set from the Magic Railroad, I've redone this set from the video I created on Youtube a while back!

I plan on in the future making more sets as a demo for opinions as I want to feature TATMR lighting as an option in future RUE games!

Let me know what you think and I hope you all enjoy!

No.1 Engine

The face of the show, Really Useful Engines is proud to release one of our latest Thomas models, this model is mostly mesh and created by our own Jamayon, with help from other users such as thelbsc_thomas, for the measurements based on his Gauge 1 Thomas replica model.

Due note, this model is not for public use, meaning you as a Patron can not redistribute and give the model out to anyone freely, this is a reward for you being a loyal patron of Really Useful Engines, anyone caught leaki...

Express Mission!

Here's an exclusive look at our Sodor Express system!

Created by PootisPow, this system will be later implemented into 2.0 as one of the many missions you can activate while in interactive mode, you'll be randomly given routes based on your location and will either need to rush through stations or stop at certain mainline platforms to pick up and drop off passengers!

2024-04-19 21:19:55 +0000 UTC View Post

Interactive & Sandbox

With 2.0, we'll be introducing two modes of the Really Useful Engines. The original Sandbox mode, along with a new mode called interactive. Both would be separated by menu selection so you can choose which to join.

Sandbox is just like the original, free play as you wish to enjoy Thomas & his friends.

Interactive is more railway based, you'll be able to take on actual trains and objectives and receive points on your sucessful journey and for following railway rules...

Interactive Mode

Another big overhaul we want to implement into 2.0 and Really Useful Engines as a whole is a job system.

You having the ability to interact with other Engines and load your own trucks, tenders and more is the future of the game and this is just an early test of what's to come to the future of Really Useful Engines.

Credits to Pootis!

The future of Interactive Thomas

Some of you may or may not know this, but for 2.0 and our games in-general we want to bring you more than just a sandbox Thomas game. We want a full working and running railway for you and your friends to enjoy.

This includes doing jobs around the Island to earn your gamepasses rather than spend your currency, earning special ingame badges for being a booster or pledger for Really Useful Engines, and track your games progress and interact with others and assist them with their job...

I see Daisy didn't take the milk again..

When we said expanded cast, we meant it. Thanks to @/Jace our newest outside contributor and the importing work done by @/EthanGilo3, Daisy will be a new additional character with the release of 2.0

He may be old,

But he's still really useful!

Edward has been completed remade from the ground up, huge credits to @thelbscthomas for his wonderful CAD, @Rexecutions for the beautifully remade faces, along with @Jamayon and @EthanGilo3 for getting him into ROBLOX.

One likes the quiet, and one loves the smell of fish?

Some of Thomas's new friends are coming to Really Useful Engines, with Murdoch being created by JJe09, and Arthur being made by our very own Rexecutions. We can't wait to have these new additions to Really Useful Engines upon release. Huge credits to Andrew a.k.a theChairlord on Twitter for these adorable faces.

We're busy!

Apologies for a lack of updates, as focus on work for RUE has been widespread! Ranging from remastering our older engines to be more accurate and finetuned, to new faces, places and texturing to really make it special. Thank you all for your patience once more, and I'll have more for you to see very soon.
