Various cases containing face-masks and buoys for TUGS characters was put up for auction on eBay in mid 2012. Soon after in December of that year pictures of the model props for the face-masks were posted by the owner on this Wiki and equally were also placed for sale.

Plans and intentions for the models' well-being and the trust's aims were thoroughly discussed, and the original name 'The Star Tugs Trust' was changed to 'The Star Tugs Company Ltd.' due to copyright reasons.

  • Various cases containing face-masks and buoys for TUGS characters was put up for auction on eBay in mid 2012. Soon after in December of that year pictures of the model props for the face-masks were posted by the owner on this Wiki and equally were also placed for sale. However, the owner of the models agreed to trade to members of the Sodor Island Fansite (commonly known and short for SiF) so that they would be in safe hands and with suitable owners. The official handover of the models was in January 2013, and four months later on May 7th, The Star Tugs Trust was officially launched. Plans and intentions for the models' well-being and the trust's aims were thoroughly discussed, and the original name 'The Star Tugs Trust' was changed to 'The Star Tugs Company Ltd.' due to copyright reasons. From January 17, 2014 to February 16, 2014, The Star Tugs Company had held a 'KickStarter' campaign. They were in the need to raise money, in order to refurbish the 18 TUGS models that they had held and place it in a well decorated ex-British Railways MK1 coach. The coach will serve its purpose by being a museum for the TUGS models and hauling it from place to place in it's outings. The Star Tugs Company has succeeded by funding £11,350 with 79 people who had helped along the way. Although O.J. was the first model to be on public display on the 22nd May, 2013, the first official outing for the Company was on 8th-9th March, 2014 at The Battlefield Railway, UK.
