Making TM2 Talking James BETTER: A Trackmaster 2 Wheel Conversion!

[@liamkeenan3187]

Can we just appreciate the effort he put into gaining the power of the kid in Lego commercials

[@padfoot7137]

I love how Rosie is all 'hey I'm bathing here bitch' to she is fighting James

[@LilWesternStudios]

This is what we call *Art*

[@oliverstudios2004]

Couldn’t Agree More

[@Ronin-0811]

so true

[@AndreaE3069]

Yes

[@Poplar70bodiam]

And what we call a better product than the normal product

[@JamesFan_2008]

7:48 bro had enough of James crashing into her while she’s just trying to rest so she took matters into her own hands..

[@CrazyThomasFan]

Yes this is what I needed, I always wanted My Kenji and Henry to run on the same track as my Gordon and Soon James.

[@ToyFreddyGaming1987]

TM2 James actually looks okay. One of the better models from it.

[@ItsTrainBoy]

I agree, it’s not too proportionally off or really that odd looking? I remember seeing the Scared James in Target for the first time and actually getting excited for TM2 😅

[@P-o-o-h-B-e-a-r]

​@ItsTrainBoy I honestly think the tm2 percy is better than the fisher price one

[@Heroduothecomedian]

No fucks was given by Rosie today xD

[@ChomuOmu]

Man that looks awesome! When I want to do something like that, I just cut the TM2 tires and glue on the old tires ones. This looks WAY more satisfying. I definitely want a deeper instructions on how to do it! Amazing as always, bro.

[@ItsTrainBoy]

Man that method sounds a LOT easier I can’t lie- 😭 As frustrating as this was though I’m happy in the end it worked out haha!! Thank you so much for the comment brother man and I’ll see about starting that new in-depth tutorial :)

[@sparklesupreme2456]

I would love to see a mod where you get the regular TM2 James body and put it onto the talking chassis so that the ugly printing isn’t present, but with the talking James face since its so good. great job on this btw it looks awesome !!

[@amitysluzara2022]

Literally just earlier today I was wondering if you'd ever do anything with Trackmaster 2/Motorized so to see this is a neat coincidence! Superb modification

[@hillhog8805]

These videos have gotten me back into TM and playrail. thanks TB!

[@Alexanderarroyo643]

5:22 to get the white coupling with the ring you need to buy a battery powered tender/coach which are Harvey Molly Emily Hank Murdoch and Mighty Mac 😊

[@TheRedStinger82]

Another amazing video. Love the mario kart music in the background too. It seems oddly fitting

[@CaramelTankEngine]

You know what would make this James even more baller? *a pony truck*

[@TheOldScrapIron]

Absolutely amazing! If we get an in depth tutorial on this mod, I’m definitely using it!

[@JamesTheSplendidRedEngine]

it looks cool! :) nice job!

[@MisterMike_real]

Amazing, absolutely phenomenal

[@TheSilliestGoose655]

Rosey is soooooooooooooo cute

[@Sugerloadedgirl789]

One of the few variants I have! NGL that was one thing I can praise about these talking engines is that they are multi generational (meaning James could talk to the AEG variants and still recognize them). I REALLY wish there were more CGI talking engines like this because think of the CONVERSATIONS!

[@ItsTrainBoy]

EXACTLY homie!! 😭 I know it’s really random and a whole other range at this point but I NEED to know if James can talk to the new AEG Cranky set that would be so awesome

[@StewieJustSaidThat]

@@ItsTrainBoy It can, I tested :)

[@Sugerloadedgirl789]

@@ItsTrainBoy I have no clue if James will RECOGNIZE Cranky but you would think he COULD... It isn't out of the realm of possibility. Now him recognizing KANA would be BS. XD

[@Davidp5473]

THAT'S AMAZING TRAINBOY, PLEASE DO IT FOR THE OTHER TALKING ENGINES

[@QueenVoodo0]

Rosie decided to be a little menace today! So cute

[@OragamiTobichi-bi6lh]

Art indeed James is the best

[@Glisten2009]

Nice work! I didn't realize how easy it was to change the wheels!

[@kasiadeniziak3393]

Dad face is Beautiful

[@bdvids7930]

Rosie is adorable

[@briandesens144]

Awesome video trainboy

[@davidwhiting1761]

Poor kitten just can't find a good place to sit down.

[@Leonardo-cw1dd]

lol im surprised rosie didnt press the button on james's cab and turned him off

[@agentozark2494]

Back at it again with James rizz game

[@joshpack7330]

Doesn't seem like Rosie doesn't like Trackmaster 2. She just kept stopping James even after causing a derailment.

[@percyproductions8990]

I would LOVE to see an in-depth look! I too have the talking engines on my shelf and would love to make the conversion myself

[@DocksideProductions]

I second this

[@BuilderBroWasTaken]

This is sick!

[@thatstupidthomasfan]

good to know nobody saw the spelling mistake in the description lol

[@BillandBenProductions6792]

Tm2 engines look a lot better with Plarail wheels instead of Tm2 wheels since Tm2 wheels are so spiky and it’s so cute and funny how Rosie the cat was trying to stop the train from running in the video, it looks like Rosie the cat loves playing with Trains.

[@merritttrainboy7716]

Splendid wheel conversion you've done. Although pity of the little cat keeps getting in the way of James. Still, Great!

[@ClassyHotdog]

your so cool trainman!!!!!!

[@Jams_Plooshi]

amazing

[@trainst]

Ok now I have to try this great job bro

[@ItsTrainBoy]

I promise dawg you’ll do it better than me, and thank you so much for the comment too homie :)

[@trainst]

@@ItsTrainBoy No problem

[@man_myth_nerd]

I really like that crash in the intro

[@Slater230]

Like it

[@Dead_Channel_Pretty_Much]

8:25 Is THAT A Oliver Siderod Style Chassis I See In The Distance?

[@ItsTrainBoy]

👀👀 Perhaps there’s been some cooking

[@madelineadeline9290]

I remember seeing a talking thomas and Percy set a walmart, I don't remember what the set was though, but it was cool.

[@chasesrailwaylinesrr6447]

I think I get what's better it can work on TOMY track! Mattel made a stupid mistake when they decided to switch wheels and make it not work

[@Josephcavagnaro]

6:05 nice nod to toad's adventure

[@AtkataffTheAlpha]

The thing about Trackmaster 2 is that Mattel only thought about the children and not about older children and adults loving the old merchandise. Clearance, pulling power, appearance, and variety all were lost in favor of more speed, CGI, and interesting choices in the toys decals. Now if they were combined, this minus the decals and plus the freewheeling and much more variety would be the revolution Thomas merchandise should've had

[@swiftengine]

Peak James + peak wheels = ultimate james

[@marklincovet509]

i really like the fact TM2 james made an enemy of your cat

[@marklincovet509]

in fact, i'd like to see more thomas running sessions with your cat in them

[@NicoleSmithMusician]

The funny thing is that James is the fastest train in he's train museum

[@ngiotsas7757]

Please make a modification video about it because I have a bunch of talking engines and I would love to do the modification

[@InkyBoiArts]

Don’t worry about James, Rosie, we understand that object permanence is a bitch

[@KenshinPlayz57]

What I do to run my Tm2 trains on Tomy track is I take off the gear tires, get some Tomy or Trackmaster tires and glue them on

[@pwinter9674]

Can someone please tell me the music used for when James is running or attempting to escape Rosie 😂

[@fishpop]

6:31 KITTY!

[@harrisonallen651]

7:25 Rosie you little troll

[@horsewoodtrains15]

Have you ever thought about making your own custom episodes or remakes?

[@mattradin7252]

Rosie CONSISTENTLY sitting on the tracks

[@antoniettapetrillo8956]

I see that you are fixing that Oliver i see you right there i see you

[@IVANSAAVEDRAUSA]

Rosie has NO idea of what's going on! 😆 7:17

[@denisdoobe]

yo is there any eay to make a tm2 free wheel but still move? Like tomy?

[@Nubfist]

Great customisation idea, I'd never be brave enough to do it! (Also Rosie is so incredibly adorable and innocent I love her)

[@mixedtrafficproductions9371]

What if accessing the circuit board and extract the sound files and replace them with something else

[@theblueproductor]

Do you think you could put a motor in a plarail Marion?

[@DisneyMatthewSkunk]

I think mattel was banking on the faster speed and the ability to climb steeper hills to be the main selling points .

[@ItsTrainBoy]

And unfortunately; it kinda just flopped imo 😭 I never really found a TM2 set that I was head over heels for that wasn’t more basic personally

[@DisneyMatthewSkunk]

@@ItsTrainBoy it could've worked for the blue moutain Quarry .

[@ItsTrainBoy]

That would’ve made a banger set ngl (The normal TM one was cool so I can only imagine)

[@DisneyMatthewSkunk]

@@ItsTrainBoy I'm something among the lines of that blue moutain set from that 1 toy trains 4 u video

[@FlyingScotsmanStudios]

i just realised, he his in his tomy trackmaster phase good

[@tnpjamesproductions]

7:24, at least it's Trackmaster, my cat does it to my ho scale layout But 'ROISE LOAF'

[@EternityKingdomsHeadHoncho]

Why is it that TM2 made it so you could remove the coal from the tenders of the big engines? Did they really think kids would complain if they couldn’t pop it out?

[@JeffysMilky-way]

Of the tm2 james cab was rased and tender was longer it would look great!

[@internet03]

10 year old me realizing you could just replace the rims with tomy ones

[@MichaelJones-vx7lt]

Can you do a collection video plz.

[@thomaseinstein745]

Rosie has caused confusion and delay!

[@TankEngineTim]

Yes please 5:49 I have 3 engines. I need to give them a wonderfully good wheel set (not the shitty TM2 ones)

[@jamesthebluecat1263]

I don’t like these newer Thomas toys. ESPECIALLY THE ALL ENGINES GO ONES! I remember playing with tomy Gordon, Rosie, salty, Thomas and bill and Ben (I had a Henry at 1 point in time though I only know this because of a video my mom has of me and my siblings playing with them and I have no memory of me ever having a Henry) and I really liked those ones.

[@optimusprimegenerationone919]

If you get gordon, can you do the same?

[@Lighting_Desk]

That little sod has done it again.....

[@drevianedwardsproductions9244]

It's a nice little mod that I've seen from Thomas user's prior I'm gonna be honest the 2020 to 2021 Versions of the interactive talking engines are my favorites because they recognize each other And I do like the voices from one of them I could ever imagine if you ever get Gordon, Diesel, 2021 talking, Thomas And the Talking Thomas and Percy train set or At least some of them. Because I know that you're not the biggest fan of trackmaster revolution/motorized.

[@natedaboi1608]

That’s cool

[@azuma892]

2:58 Come on Trainboy that wheel has grey rubber tires and you are telling me it's from a Plarail? I thought better of you lol. 🤣

[@ItsTrainBoy]

Or perhaps I put those on myself because the Plarail ones were broken? 😅 Sadly most of the Plarail stuff in the spare bin is aged so I’ll replace them for proper usability lol

[@azuma892]

Sorry I sounded so mean XD.

[@ItsTrainBoy]

@@azuma892 No worries homie!! :)

[@TheCreativeType]

You have any goons he can talk to?

Do a Trackmaster e2

Holy shit James finally got his bottom surgery

[@Alextrains502]

Hi

[@thomasfanthetrainman4152]

You should get another talking engine and modify it like Gordon Thomas or diesel cuz they can interact and talk to each other please train boy comment back and respond to my question

[@trainboy7]

Imagine if someone were to try this with a TM2 exclusive engine. Like Timothy or Glynn.

[@trainboy1346]

Couldn’t you do the same thing to the track master two Toby
