TThread.Queue is available in an appropriately done "console application".

As already discussed several times in the past, I did a draft for an 
"active" version of a "no-GUI application" that allows for a main thread 
executing such queued TThread and TTimer Events. (It also has 
Application.Processmessages, Application.QueueAsyncCall,...  ).

You can test it, but I am not forcing this project much, as with modern 
hardware (such as the Pi3) there is not much pressure any more to avoid 
installing a GUI framework.
