Thomas Wooden Railway Community


Percyno6 joined YouTube on September 20, 2008, and is still making videos today. She is the 2nd and current President of the Thomas Wooden Railway Community. She was one of the first people to join the Thomas Wooden Railway Community. She co-created Tank Engines Studios and TTTE Community Radio, and is currently apart of both channels. She is a 10-time world champion; a record nine-time TWRC Champion and one-time TWRC Island of Sodor Champion.

Beginnings 

Percyno6 made her first ever YouTube account on July 14, 2008.  The account was not about TWR and has since been deleted. One day she searched Thomas Wooden Railway on YouTube and she came across Keekre24. She started to talk to him almost immediately after she watched his first video. After about a week of talking to him, Percyno6 would be born.  

First Videos

Percyno6's first videos were of her Thomas Wooden Railway Series, Thomas the Tank Engine & Friends Wooden Railway Stories, were some of her first videos. The first episode of the series was James the only Red Engine. Her series would last for 6 seasons until it was cancelled when he left YouTube in July 2009.  She would also make remakes. Today Percyno6 uploads remakes after she completes a season, but in her early years she would upload remakes whenever she wanted to. Her first remake was Steamroller. Her most popular remake was Peter Sam and the Refreshment Lady. After over 500,000 video views, Percyno6 would leave the Community for the first time on July 19, 2009.

Community Friends

Percyno6's first friends on YouTube were ThomasWoodenRailway and Thomasfan24. The 3 of them spent many hours on streams listening to videos and talking with each other. This friendship of the 3 lasted until Thomasfan24 left YouTube, although Keekre24 and Percyno6 are still very good friends. She was also friends with rboffill, TRAINSARECOOL2, henryfan88, Jamesis5, and LegoLegion5000 prior to them leaving the community. After she returned for the first time, she became good friends with SirTophamHatt291. That friendship lasted until The Jack War that resulted in Jack leaving the community. In her 2011 return, Percyno6 continue to add to her list of friends with new users that had joined the community the last two years. The new users were LNERFlyingScotsman, MrMPS2002, HenryisGreat15, thomasfreak808, WoodenRailwayReviews, and jlouvier. In 2013, Percyno6 was one of the first people to discover Oliver Duck, and the two became fast friends. In 2015, MultiGreenThunder returned to the community and the two of them began to talk early on. Percyno6 ended up being MultiGreenThunder's first crossover, and Multi has been in many of Percyno6's videos over the years, including singing and doing a crossover for Percyno6's 9 year anniversary video. Since 2021, Percyyno6 has participated in the Bucked Out meetup. Also since 2021, Percyno6 has participated in a meetup over the summer with friends. Friends who have attended these meetups include (in alphabetical order): Crimson2091, LNERFlyingScotsman, MasterOfTheLemons, MikeMike123, MrMPS2002, Oliver Duck, Roman'sTWREmpire, PercySix Miles, TankEngineThomas, ThomasWoodenRailway, TrainKing James, TWRProductions4, William Politeski, and WRO.

First Return

Percyno6's departure from the community didn't last long, as she quickly returned to YouTube. The problem was that when she left YouTube she deleted her channel. Because of this, she changed to using her backup account, Oliverno11, as her new main account. She would use Oliverno11 for several months until she was able to reopen Percyno6 in early December 2009. She quickly decided to go back to using Percyno6 as her main account, and announced Christmas day 2009 she would officially go back to having Percyno6 as her main account.

From her first return in 2009 up until her most recent return in 2011, Percyno6 stopped making her series and instead made remakes and discussions. Part of the reason behind this was every time Percyno6 left she would delete her channel, and although at that time you could reopen your channel you could not bring back your old videos. At the time, Percyno6 felt it was not worth bringing back her series considering she originally had 6 seasons that were deleted.

Percyno6's first return wasn't too eventful. Both she and Keekre24 left YouTube the same day and returned about the same time. Since Keekre24 had kept his channel up, he continued making videos where he last left off, meanwhile Percyno6 made a few videos and mostly just chatted with the community at this time. After awhile, Percyno6 once again grew tired with Thomas and on April 6, 2010 Percyno6 was deleted again.

Second Return

Once again Percyno6's departure was short lived, as she returned about two months later on June 28, 2010. Her second return she announced she was done making videos and would just be talking with the rest of the community. It was during this return that she was one of the first people to discover and become friends with SirTophamHatt291. Percyno6 quickly saw the potential in SirTophamHatt291 (Jack) and began promoting Jack's channel throughout much of this return.

Beyond meeting Jack, Percyno6's second return wasn't too different from his previous time on YouTube. During this time, she mostly talked with Keekre24, Jamesis5 and Jack.

Just like Keekre24, she was known to leave YouTube multiple times.

Third Departure

After having been back for nearly a year, Percyno6 decided it was time for her to leave the Community once again. After considering all options, she figured the time she used for her Percyno6 account would be better used for other things. Unlike other times she left, she really thought this would be the end of her channel. Before she left, she deleted all her personal messages and all the people on her friends list back when both of these were features most used on YouTube. She also would delete all her videos that she uploaded since her 2010 return. She left her channel up, but removed her icon and had a goodbye message in the channel description. On June 18, 2011, 10 days shy of exactly one year from her return to YouTube, Percyno6 left YouTube for what she thought would be the final time.

2011 Return

After almost 3 months away, Percyno6 returned for the third time on September 5, 2011. She decided to return a few weeks before the actual return when she realized she could still have time for YouTube videos on Percyno6. Her first video was her collection video, which now has over 60,000 views, also being her fourth most watched video she has ever uploaded (as of February 2024). When she came back, she knew she still won't have much time for uploads. From the time of October 2011 - February 2012, she was only able to upload 6 videos (all reviews). It was in March 2012 when she made the decision to bring back something she had not done on her channel since 2009.

Series Reboot

Percyno6 decided to bring back her series in March 2012. This made it the first time since 2009 that Percyno6 would be making a series on her channel. Her first movie she made after she brought the series back, Diesel 10: The Showdown, is now her seventh most viewed video ever (as of February 2024). Other movies Percyno6 has made for the series reboot are Lockdown: The Island of Sodor, The Battle of the Island, and The Clash of Chaos.

2012

Percyno6 started out 2012 by finishing up the discussions she started in 2011, with reviews on Terence, Satly, and Butch. Once the discussions were complete, a layout video of her revived series would be released in March and season 1 would finish in June. July and August would consist of 5 remakes. The season 2 layout would be released at the end of August with the first movie, Diesel 10: The Showdown, being released on the 4 year anniversary of Percyno6. Following that, season 2 would start in September and finish on Christmas. Following season 2, Percyno6 would take a break from her series and return to discussions. The final video of 2012 was on New Year's Eve. It was a discussion on the 3 Lorries, officially bringing back discussions.

Jack War

Percyno6, along with Damian (TRAINSARECOOL2) started up the war against Jack during the summer of 2012. Damian was trying to show the fraud Jack was. Jack was lying about stuff he had told Percyno6 in the past, and she gave Damian quotes of what Jack had said. The next day Jack was mad at Percyno6 and Damian. A few days later, the 2 hour Skype call happened, and Jack magically forgave Percyno6. Percyno6 always sided with the Community during the war against Jack.

2013

Percyno6 began 2013 by uploading numerous discussions from January to June. Once finished, Percyno6 uploaded her third layout video followed by her movie Lockdown: The Island of Sodor. Season 3 would then begin on July 5 which would eventually end with the final episode on October 18. On September 20, 2013, Percyno6 celebrated 5 years on YouTube. She made a short video talking about her time on YouTube. November marked the purchase of 1992 Toby and Mavis. Percyno6 would then upload reviews on the 1992 Toby, Mavis, and a Daisy already purchased for November.

After a down year for the community in 2013, Percyno6 uploaded on December 2 a video "History of the Thomas Wooden Railway YouTube Community," inspired by TRAINSARECOOL2's video called "Rant On The "Community" and Why It Sucks Today." Many people consider the video, along with Oliver Duck (Ted) uploading everyday in December to be why the Community was able to bounce back from a bad 2013. Percyno6's video inspired people to join the community, return to the community, and make more videos. Ted and Percyno6 would also upload a video on Percyno6's channel showing new users videos that would help bring people to their channel.

To finish off 2013, Percyno6 uploaded her fourth layout video. She ended 2013 by uploading the first episode of season 4, The New Year's Engine, on December 31.

2014

Season 4 would continue to be uploaded in 2014, ending on April 10 followed by the third movie, The Battle of the Island, on April 24. The summer would consist of a few videos. The first which was talking about this Wikia. She reached 1,000 subscribers on July 14, 2014. She put out a Peter Sam & The Refreshment Lady remake with HiroTheJapaneseTrain as the narrator. She would then do her first Q&A, with the answer videos coming out in early August. Ted and Percyno6 would make a second (and thus far, last) video introducing new members of the community. August would end with a fifth layout video and first episode of season 5. On September 28, Percyno6 announced the return of Tank Engines Studios. Season 5 would end on December 5. Percyno6 finished 2014 with a review on the Thomas Winter Wonderland 3-pack review. Percyno6, along with MrMPS2002 and Oliver Duck, were the creators and members of TTTE Community Radio which was created on December 30.

2015

The first video of 2015 was a bloopers video from season 5. In March, Percyno6 would do her first crossover ever. The crossover was an Oliver Review with Ted. The video was the first time Percyno6 or any user used a mask in a video. Percyno6 would end up doing another crossover in 2015. This was the Hector Review with MrMPS2002 that was also apart of the crossover saga and picked up where the Oliver Review left off. Besides crossovers, 2015 marked the start of season 6. For the first time ever, Percyno6 would start another series. This series is called Branch Line Chronicles, and is began on September 20, Percyno6's 7 year anniversary on YouTube. Towards the end of the year, Percyno6 did reviews on Stanley and Murdoch. These reviews would mark a turn in the way reviews are done on the channel, with reviews now featuring sketches and some having a story line.

2016

Season 6 would end up finishing in May. Crossovers would continue in 2016. Percyno6 did a Stafford Review crossover with WRO. There was also two crossovers for the crossover saga. The first was a BoCo Review with MultiGreenThunder, followed by the Ryan Review with EricPierre53 that picked up where the BoCo Review left off. In June, Percyno6 uploaded her second Thomas Wooden Railway Collection video (the first since 2011) which has since become the most viewed video on the channel (as of February 2024). Following the end of TWR Community Radio, Percy's Ever Present Past was moved to Percyno6's channel. Now an interview, the first episode back was with LNERFlyingScotsman. The summer also included the channel's second Q&A, and a remake on Thomas Gets Trick. Thomas Gets Tricked was the first remake in two years and was narrated by Percyno6. A new series, "Who's Better," began that compares an engine made in two different brands, in this case wooden railway and ertl. The series maybe continued in the future. At the end of August, a Branch Line Chronicles video titled "Meet Mr. Percival!" was uploaded, with the second episode of the series being uploaded on Percyno6's 8 year anniversary, September 20. To date, this was the last Branch Line Chronicles video uploaded to the channel. The series has since been canceled.
