Glennock (T&F)/Behind the Scenes

Background Information
Glennock is a fictional town on the north of the Island of Sodor created by the Rev. W. Awdry. It serves as a station on the Skarloey Railway.

The station first appeared in the fourth series episode Granpuff, which first aired in 1995. Its last appearance was in the eighteenth series episode Duncan the Humbug, which was released in 2014.

O gauge model
Glennock station was originally built for the fourth series. It also doubled as a station for the Mid Sodor Railway. During production of the fourth series, this station was referred to as Tiny Station, as the stations were not referred to by their names from The Railway Series at this time. The station building itself was based off of Ballybeg station on the Isle of Man Railway.

CGI model
In 2009, the series introduced Computer-Generated Imagery (CGI) as a replacement for the show's long-standing live-action models. Glennock was recreated from scratch in CGI by Jam Filled Toronto. The model was "hand-sculpted" in Maya, a 3D animation and modelling software.
