To say how excited I was when I sure the image would be an understatement. This image does also seem to confirm that the pilot did have 'flatter lighting and simpler sets'.

The gatekeeping is a real thing in this fandom... I won't name names, but there are those in this fandom that either have the pilot in their position, or more information about this piolet. And it's really sad they can't be mature and share

Oh, trust me Sewer, the gatekeeping crap isn’t allegorical in the Thomas fandom. The Star Tugs Trust (or Tugs: The Exhibition) have had the actual reel in their possession for a time, as they have ties to Mattel. Another member, codenamed TomsProps, is also believed to have information on the pilot, if not, a copy of the reel itself. For being made up of 30-40 something adults, a lot of fandom members are pretty immature with the memorabilia they think they own.

@@Tugsboi47I mean I don't wanna say no, but the closest they ever did to that on an anniversary was releasing a late internal working version, and only after the actual original(more-or-less) draft had already been found in its entirety. Also, since they aren't even making the CGI series anymore, what would they release it with? I wouldn't exactly expect Mattel to release it out of any kind of care for the fans, and would only really do it if they could make money off it.

@@Tugsboi47 I don't know that they would make a movie for all engines go, which is the only way I could see it being released, and even if they did, it is highly doubtful that they'd put a 3d series, especially not a live action, relatively serious one. To my knowledge, they never even mixed the CGI and model series on home media, save for a music video on one disk that was probably put in as a misinterpretation of instruction to put the CGI version of the music video in.

9:35 this is actually kinda crazy, not to get anyone's hopes up but I vaguely remember seeing on my TV many years ago when I was about 3-4 a shot of Thomas that looked like it was from the series 1-7 outro where Thomas was in the yard with credits on the right, anyhow, I remember that shot as if it was a regular episode but for some reason there was a female narrator, now this was strange to me as I was familiar with Ringo and angelis voices (mainly angelis' as it would have primarily been on dvd at the time) but this couldn't be possible as there never was any female narrator for the official series, but the dvds that I did watch quiet alot were 'Truck Loads of Fun dvd' that had season 1 and there was the 'Classic Adventures dvd' but I don't really recall any female narrator, going back to the scene I remember Thomas was in the yard like in the end credits and there was the female voice, I can't remember the words but they were 100% UK English, next minute Thomas was blasted with quarry dust and his surprised face appeared on him and the scene ended, I'm not sure if I combined the shot from the outro and the shot from TATMR in my head but it seemed very real, but as for the female voice, I wonder if I had selected a different language by accident but I'm really not too sure as this was like 14-15 years ago but it could have been something I made up in my toddler aged brain or it was some sort of bonus feature, however, I asked my mum a couple of years ago and she never recalled what I saw, but this does sound odd the more I think about it and compare it to the pilot.

15:15 Those bumps on the bridge are posts/pillars adjoining the sections of wall on the bridge. Apart from being decorative, they also help with sharing the load of any force put on the wall, since stacked stones and/or bricks aren't really that resistant by themselves to pressure put against them, mainly at the base(in short, without those pillars, brick and stone walls would be likely to fall over if pushed).

Remember Flying Pringle's film Project Tigermoth? I'm to try making one as I think it's to be named Project 83, for Pilot Thomas I need a Puffing Billy E2 Tank Engine and an A3 Tender Engine for Pilot Gordon.

One thing that could be possible is that the image could be false but a really well made false example. Why/how? The creator could have made the scene himself with a simple circle track or perhaps a circle track and a separate rail and made a digital picture wich was printed then scanned back into a digital format or made a basic photo like a polaroid then scanned it into a pc and then blown up causing the blurry bits
