Sodor the Early Years: Sheffield's Secret

[@SegaMario]

Woah! All this time I thought 16 and Sheffield were different... you certainly are creative with piecing missing and proposed RWS information together!

[@RailsOfTheWorld]

This has to be your best episode yet, and really enjoyed the part with Sheffield being 16 in the past

[@dimitrizoya8344]

its good to know that 16 is still remembered as Shefield

[@doctorwhonut90]

I'm really enjoying your series, especially since yours relates better to the Railway Series better than the TV series

That first bit was like Old Iron all over again, except Mike's smaller than James. LOL Sheffield's 16?!?

[@Branusef]

For this series yes but I'm not sure about if he's actually 16

[@22Tesla]

I wasn't expecting it to be revealed that Sheffield was 16. Talk about a surprise event. A great video.

[@ninjaclarkson3723]

Sheffield is one of my favorite characters in your series

[@DanielIrwinProductions]

an absolutely STELLAR production indeed! (none the less of what i was expecting anyway) can't wait til next Saturday!

[@pepperthekobold]

I suspect all of the cast members know. I've been using that to build tension and make people want to watch more.

[@TheVicarstownSentinel]

Whoa there, now that was unexpected! What a twist! Didn't see that coming!

[@bobbertcanuck1935]

... How did Mike whistle without his driver?

[@WildNorWester]

My understanding is that the engines have controls of their own whistles.

[@mrtoadplayz_yt1078]

Just like Gordon when he was a runaway.

[@albion.hlafweard]

Bobbert Canuck The miniature engines can drive themselves because there to small to have regulators.

[@legoroan9866]

Bobbert Canuck The trains can talk and do some of the driving work but drivers and firemen do the rest, I also have a logical explanation for why the trucks can dance in journey beyond Sodor which is that they're have broken chassis

[@evelynjiles29]

You never know, it’s possible The question is how though

[@yemmel9761]

@@evelynjiles29 more plot convenience thats how

[@gbhtrain1325]

At 5:30 it feels like the two comments by both engines should've been the other way round like this: "Those two supporting ones have rolled over" "So there's no tension holding the beams?" "That's what I meant by loose Henry. You shouldn't have accepted the flatcar when it was loaded. Those two sets of I beams should've been on their sides to begin with." I believe that's how you had it in the script when you were casting auditions for season 4, and I noticed it was the other way round when this episode was released.

[@thedefaulttrainer]

Well this has to be one of the best episodes I've ever seen. Well written and thought out, I wasn't even expecting Sheffield to be sixteen

[@TheFattHatt]

That was fantastic! Took me a while to connect the 16-Sheffield story, before it being revealed.

[@Hilltrack]

Sheffield is 16? Wow, how interesting! :D Great job!

[@blueboy0533]

Hi awesome video mate

[@pepperthekobold]

Hey! Fantastic episode.Very nice conclusion to the previous part. And on my birthday too!

Quite the little plot twist you got there. Nice work.

[@MrCSisley]

Welcome Sheffield to The Sodor Railway XD Very nice episode Wildnorwester. Very nice indeed

[@ThadeasTheQuiet]

I should have expected 16...but I didn't. Anyways, you do a good job with this series.

[@AlexKravchenko-uo3ds]

These stories have a true TUGS element to them in terms of realism.

[@henrycooper8157]

i knew it was 16. but still it was great to drag a very old character back in to todays time well done wildnor'wester well done.

[@ChrisTomson]

Who'd have thought that Sheffield was Sixteen? Great story

[@blasterblaster1221]

amazing as usual m glad to see that 16 got a second chance or should I say sheffield

[@AndrewHager02]

Whoa... so all this time, Sheffield was 16? WNW... you... are... A GENIUS!!!

[@TailsFan369no2]

I originally wanted 16 to go through the same thing as Lord Harry/Patrick, but, admittingly, This is even better

[@ShadowGamer011]

Is that NWR1991's real voice or is it put on

[@eddiewhitley5216]

You all right mike.

[@thunderbolt9722]

Why does every Workman/Driver/Fireman/Signalman have two faces?!?!?!

[@sudrianthomasathomasandfri1652]

its a glitch thing witch happens with trainz (the thing he uses to make his videos)

[@thomaseadbhardmcqueen7511]

When I get Sodor Island 3D, I will make a series, but Sheffield and 16 will be different engines. Also, is Colin in Wilbert's class?

[@BigTrain175]

WildNorWester, what do you mean that the track from the Arlesdale railway died down in the story?

[@tanyipan3554]

I believe it means the workload is less busy that they don't need Sheffield's help.

[@ellenlontoc2714]

Well done !

[@ShadowGamer011]

Awesome job, I knew that Sheffiled was 16 the first time I saw him which was in the preview

I like Sheffield hope his spot light is not over

[@joashcologne7941]

I like. Those?

[@lukechristmas3951]

So that's the reason behind Sheffield. I really like him and his ways. He's like Big Mac in a way: rude, rough, strong, true grit but good-hearted and understanding. Sheffield is the type of engine I prefer to see at a steel mill instead of Frankie and Hurricane.

[@alicehodges9964]

The steel works is a Mill? I guess that makes sense but why would a Tank engine work there instead of Frankie and Hurricane

[@lukechristmas3951]

Since the beams weren't secure, what could have happend? Would he have derailed or something?

~~does~~ is Sheffield REALLY is 16?

[@WildNorWester]

Yep. Sheffield really is 16.

[@WildNorWester]

***** I edit the narration, voices, etc. with Audacity, then edit the video using Sony Vegas Movie Studio. The voices are just added over the video, as an audio track.

[@rockyfanatic6846]

[@rockyfanatic6846]

They could use tail lights on cattle vans at the end of freight trains

I know that now...i just thought Colin and Wilbert were the same class because they were the same shape, but i was wrong on that.

Did HIT partially steal your design of the ballast hopper at Arlesbrough? Or is that just a coincidence?

[@jonistan9268]

uhm... I mean Mattel

[@WildNorWester]

It's based off the RWS illustrations, and I suspect that HIT/Mattel would have done the same thing I did. So really, we both 'stole' Gunvor and Peter Edwards' design.
