1964: A Turn For The Worst (A TAOS Special)

During the peak of modernisation many engines and areas were getting cut down thanks to The Beeching Axe. This caused some steam engines to run away in fear of being scrapped next, in hopes they could find somewhere to safe and hide away from British Railways. But unfortunately, many were found out and got hunted down by the D.J.D (Diesel Justice Division) and were returned back to their scrapyards to be cut up.

It was an honour to voice as Lucas in your fan-made film for the first time. :)

[@CraneProductions27]

This was one of the darkest Specials I have ever seen. The characters were good and what a villain Shaw was and Maria is like Harley Quinn to him. I loved Loughborough, Ryan, Meryl, Richard, Benjamin and Naval. They were my favourite in the Special. The voice cast were incredible and I am so proud of them. I want to say well done and congratulations to #MrAthehedgehog for his splendid job on the Special, and thank you for giving me the role of 65. It was a joy to voice him 😀 .

Barry the Rescue Engine intro: Dear Viewers, In Southern Wales, there was place known as the "Barry Scrapyard". When the Diesels took over on the other railway, 297 Steam Engines were sent there to be cut up for scrap. I'm pleased to say that 213 of these engines have been preserved and are running on Heritage Railways all around the United Kingdom. I'm sorry to say that one of these engines wasn't in a good way when he arrived at the North-West Railway, but the Fat Controller and his engines soon saw to that!

I really enjoyed this. If I'm being honest, Shaw Savil deserves to be scrapped. He's such a nasty guy and abusive towards Marvin.

[@comicfan1324]

I gotta say as evil as D5701 is, trust me he is a terrible diesel, but I find him quite fascinating in the story. At the very least you can say that he’s loyal, believes in his cause, and values the lives of his fellow diesels. Now if only he spread that compassion to steam engines, then he could be a really useful diesel. However even though it’s made clear that he hates steam engines or the very least doesn’t think of them very highly it is interesting to note that he doesn’t seem to relish the thought of hurting them. It comes across more like he’s just following his orders. Obviously that’s no excuse but at least that means he doesn’t like the idea of torturing engines.

[@NwrDuck]

Except that 04 shunter

[@oliverhood1732]

He was a traitor to the diesel cause he was the one who started this little charade by allowing those 2 engines to run away and I tell you he paid with his life 30:13

[@West_Coast_Gang]

He’s a 28, the only one that got painted br blue as he was the final of his class (or in ttte the last in service, as Boco/5702 is preserved on sodor) and he’s unreliable. Doing the dirty work may extend his service

Truly is the darkest special you have to date. In Shaw's world, it's like an HBO special with plenty of swearing and corruption. By contrast, the Diesel Justice Division are like the Inquisitorius, with Roderick acting as Grand Inquisitor. At least we have some comic relief here.

[@andysnoopy9137]

18:36. No one can resist the cute face.

[@DZM0N]

Its such a shame, they were so close to freedom😞 if it wasn't for Shaw😤 I hope they'll be able to try another attempt in the future.

[@islesofforeignrails7917]

This special is much more dark and gritty than the 1963/69/86, especially seeing Ryan and Duchess in this situation, to go along with the domaintator and mental villain, Shaw, his mischievous partner, Maria, in this escapable plan to go with Meryl, Richard, Sarpalius and 65. It's also pretty bittersweet out of Roderick's orders and sentence from the BR to take the engines for scrap under their contracts. at least, Naval saved Meyrl's life and returned her to reunite with Eliza. I bet Ryan and Duchess will be saved by preservation, Lucas and Maria have got a safe hideout, and Benjamin wish that Sarpaliaus is out of the withdrawn from service. we already don't know about what happens after these events, but they were different. Now we can watch the previous specials back to back in case of unchrongoincal order. Well done, glad to see you keeping up with this series, and congrats to everyone for the voice-overs. I hope this isn't the last special.

[@islesofforeignrails7917]

This explains why Jasper has finally put up with Shaw's schemes and attitude.

[@richieosborn2639]

After rewatching NWR1991’s NWR Tales Ryan episode, I can happily say that Ryan was saved, but was probably relocated to a smaller scrapyard where Sir Topham Hatt bought him.
