Thomas animation test

Like Henry, I was attempting to animate the XL Thomas, it went pretty well, but the round motion of the side rod's a bit strange, but overall it came out okay,I was going to animate him coming on screen, pulling Annie and Clarabel then running off screen, but I thought it was too complex so I reduced it to a slow motion animation.

Fantastic animation!

@RobertMProductions Thanks

I have made a better animation where the wheels actually move and the motion of the siderod is smoother, but I messed up some of the frames and the wheels move backwards for 2 frames, so I'm updating it, should have it uploaded soon!

I have a set of wheels which are seperated from the engine, then I add the side rod

I know the coupling rods are animated, but the wheels are'nt.
