Yes, that is Gangnam Style.

eeeeeeeeeeey sexeh ladeeeeeeeh!

[@amitysluzara2022]

How have I never known Gangman Style is BTS-

[@mr.meloetta1939]

Duke losing it over Gangnam Style is simultaneously the best and worst thing I've ever seen in a Thomas fan series

[@Ghost_train_1915]

Yes

[@LittleNoddyLemmyVideos]

Lmao

[@levidarling5107]

I don’t know what others may think, but I like it, builds Duke’s character in my opinion.

[@flashstudiosguy]

That Aston owner is a LEGEND! Nobody likes those guys who act like the World is going to end if they're delayed!

[@WildNorWester]

You'll be seeing more of him.

[@averyj5956]

I can't be the only one who grinned so hard when Addie crossed the bridge! Our girl getting overcoming her fear of it speaks back to her character, in 1968 and in general. Always putting others before herself, despite the situation. And her using what Duncan and Harris said, as well as her own personal account of that night, to encourage herself was so beautiful to me. Can't wait to see the finale next week and what a certain old engine might have to experience for himself ;)

[@frigometri257]

Nice how she already has a Nickname, but I really like it.

[@dragonraiderknight4625]

Yes! She made it! She proved to her self that it can be done!

[@eliotreader8220]

it seems Adeline's got over her accident all those years ago. I knew it would happen eventually but I didn't expect her to charge over it

[@averyj5956]

@@eliotreader8220 Well, as Harris says, Adeline is a persistent engine. She knew she had a job and she wasn't going to let anything get in the way of it, not even her trauma. I like that about her.

[@sparkstechnology]

Dukes reaction to the music was hilarious, I love it. 😂

[@alfa1134]

HA! Gangnam Style makes another cameo, and of course Duke doesn't approve, lol! I'm so happy to see Adeline overcome her phobia of the iron bridge! It shows how much she's overcome from when she was pulled out of the gorge. One a side note, I'm also glad that Harris and Sir Handel have buried the hatchet and made amends. Even if it was off screen, I really like it when loose ends get tied up. Upon hearing more about Harris, I now hope that you things end on a happy note with him.

[@eliotreader8220]

I think after being rammed by a road vehicle I think Duke could have with out hearing that Music. he possibly likes more classic music due to being named after the Earl of Sodor.

[@AndrewHager02]

I’m hoping the Thin Controller buys Harris and makes him a part of the Skarloey Railway. It’ll be great to have him and Addie work to refreshing her memories.

[@alextucker5819]

At first I thought he was gonna play Hollaback Girl.

[@AndrewHager02]

@@alextucker5819 Now THAT would never suit His Grace!!

[@NickolasMontagnino]

That was amazing, I think it's safe to say that Adeline finally has closure over her accident. Though I do hope something good will happen for Harris, him being put into storage wouldn't do.

[@mikestudioz216]

And now we come to the last problem: Adeline remembering her past

[@numberjacksoctonauts7138]

Oh, so the wedding train wasn't just a throwaway line from episode 1. Clever way of weaving it into the narrative. I remember in the audition script for the Earl of Sodor, you used *Atlas* instead of *Adeline* . Very sneaky cover there, Dan. Adeline and Duke's talk on their way to Crovan's Gate was really sweet. Looks like someone is willing to listen to Duke without falling asleep. Take notes, Sir Handel and Peter Sam. Aww, Harris is such a good friend. I'm sorry to hear he'll be leaving the Island soon. You go, Adeline! Well done for crossing the bridge. I guess a lot of her past will still remain a mystery. But maybe, overtime, she'll get more memories back.

[@yurrrgang]

Oh dear. If Duke thinks Gangnam Style wouldn’t suit his grace, just he wait to some of the music we have in the present day! xD In all seriousness, this episode was personally a great one. It was truly satisfying to see Adeline conquer her fear and crossed the old iron bridge! Can’t wait to see where the rest of the story come to!

[@jamesthomas5109]

2:38 Lol, Duke's face. 😆 🤣 😂 😹

[@tencents6]

SPOILERS!!! Do not read until after you've seen the video. Her driver said it, and now I'm repeating it. "WELL DONE, ADELINE!!!" I’m proud that she finally made it over the old iron bridge. She did marvelously.

[@darkwhite073]

I forgot this takes place during 2012😂 I can already hear the collective groan from everyone watching this. Absolutely love this series.

[@JosephRailwayStudios2000]

And that was the same year when the London Olympics was on.

[@DavidScholz-bu1ix]

NICELY WELL DONE, ADELINE!!!

[@theshipyard8798]

Duke being pissed off by Gangnam Style is something I never knew I needed

[@6allmotivepowers363]

Duke @ 2:30 - "WHAT THE BLAZES IS THAT?!?" LMAO! Just golden, WNW - bravo!

[@Vomahanew]

Seeing Adeline cross that bridge brought a tear to my eye. She made it home.

[@streamlinedengine]

Adeline triumphing over that Old Iron Bridge might just be the most satisfying scene I’ve seen ANYWHERE, for quite some time. I love how this series comes full circle, with both Duncan and Adeline overcoming their fear, in different ways. Way to go, WNW!

[@LittleNoddyLemmyVideos]

ADELINE BEST GIRL... No offense lads and/or lasses Well, Wildnorwester tried to do Gender equality around here, and he does it PERFECTLY, i love Adeline's story and i can't help but feel pity for her the moments she calls out for help when reaching the bridge, and also when Harris says goodbye

[@eliotreader8220]

I hope Harris gets some good news

[@amitysluzara2022]

Adeline getting over the bridge was beautiful

[@ryanlister1244]

Nice job WildNorWester, best of good luck on Rowan the Garratt Engine. 😄

[@the_retag]

Wait. Rowan? Garatt? What have i missed?

[@scodeknight3178]

being brave isn’t the same as not being scared, being brave is about what we do even when we do feel scared

[@midnightexpress3604]

I remember reading the Dukes' exchange back in April, and I really thought it would be Atlas. Clever. Really should have expected Adaline though. Fantastic felt really cozy, was incredibly heartwarming.

[@Ryder-a-Blaze]

You make Fridays awesome just like Victor Tanzig

[@cadenceauntarcticfan6238]

This was a great episode Dan, poor Duke after his tender derailed, it was great when Adeline got to take the wedding train and overcame her fear of crossing the old iron bridge after encouragement. I am looking forward to the last episode of this mini-series.

[@branchlineflyer7244]

Watching Adeline made me smile harder than I have a in a while. You never fail to amaze me!

[@mikeshearer1250]

I cracked up at the Gangnam Style part. I hope Harris gets to stay on the railway.

[@hughmunford7297]

Another great video, very well done. It’d be sad to see Harris go - he seems like an interesting character. Although I could see him potentially being kept on as a sort of yard shunter and station pilot for Crovan’s Gate for the SR engines now that Adeline has overcome her fear of the old iron bridge. Still, that would be a lot of locomotives for a railway that doesn’t have a huge amount of traffic outside of passengers and dwindling freight. I wonder if there’s a museum line at all that Harris could work on…

[@superalsters3484]

Now I wonder what would Dukes reaction be to dubstep or Home's resonance?

[@WildNorWester]

Possibly something reminiscent of a George Carlin routine.

[@tinmanbrigade7304]

Loved it! Another great installment. I nearly burst out laughing when I recognized the song at the beginning🤣🤣

[@evelynjiles22]

yes that’s my girl coming in clutch with the redemption arc

[@dragonraiderknight4625]

Excellent storytelling as always. My childhood is alive once more.

[@edwardtheoldreliableengine]

When Adeline crossed the bridge I was so happy and proud of her. Just like her driver. I cheered and clapped my hands. HOORAY FOR HER!

[@florenceb1031]

Yay Adeline! I'm glad she's getting some memories back and is learning to cope with her trauma. I'm hoping she'll make more progress in the next part.

[@Ryder-a-Blaze]

Gangnam style, the nostalgia!

[@samgarmash4111]

Wow, I liked that music at the accident site. Its a great soundtrack. Duke's reaction was hilarious😂.

[@norrambyproductions8364]

It's so awkward hearing the trainz station audio in the background in the scene at the 7 minute mark. Great episode as usual.

[@DarthWill3]

To be honest, I didn't think we'd get more out of this miniseries. Good old Duke. Ever a traditionalist of music. LOL Speaking of music, I recognize that tune from the Bridge Cafe Band anywhere. While I like Adeline, she talks a lot like Siri. Not a lot of emotion. Just thought you should know.

[@averyj5956]

Hi! I do apologize if she came across as emotionless as you heard her. I took the more "desolate" approach to her as I recorded her lines; she has lost her memories after all, and hadn't any clue when or whether they'd return. I think that clashed with how I naturally speak. Although I did try to convey her with the necessary emotions as the scenes needed. I'll try to work on that next time :)

[@DarthWill3]

@@averyj5956 Just remember, Avery: You're not a robot. LOL

[@jlaws8740]

Lovely work on Adeline.

[@DC4260Productions]

Duke's reaction to Psy is priceless, as is the contrast between an old locomotive and modern music.

[@mbcmechachu]

I feel like in an ideal situation going off what was shown here Harris would eventually become the SR's number 12.

[@a.r.productions]

It was so heartwarming when Adeline was able to cross the old iron bridge :D

[@TenShine1productions]

Beautiful work again!

[@thegoodgamingdragon8523]

us silly Americans thinking this was delayed due to daylights saving

[@cheesekay7314]

I'll echo what many others have said: Well done, Adeline! Her fear of the old iron bridge is no more!

[@jriddle41]

Way to go, Adeline! She's conquered her fear of the bridge.

An incredible video WildNorWester! TBH, I think this was my favorite entry in the Adeline saga thus far, overcoming her trauma, plus, the addition of "Gangam Style" gave me a good laugh! Well done partner! Looking forward to what you've got planned next!

[@fatboymb1864]

Keep up The Good Work WildNorWester Gald to See That Adeline Got over Her Fear of Crashing off The Iron Bridge

[@dsingh412]

I am glad Adeline is starting to be really useful again.🙂😎Keep up the great work WildNorWester on your amazing video's and the stories within them.

[@todddavis2041]

Well more progress for Adeline. Seeing her overcome her fear of the Bridge was another step in her recovery.

[@harpermanofficial]

Woppa Gugnam style eeeeeyyyyyyy. Very noice :)

[@valritz1489]

I'm holding out hope that something can be done about Harris. He's already built to run on electricity; dropping a motor into him and converting him into a diesel-electric shunter wouldn't be the most outlandish idea in the world.

[@pennsy6755]

Duke’s reaction to k-pop is the most based and honest reaction I’ve seen in this series to date. 10/10

[@thomasfan2054]

Another Great Story of You.

[@mhmmelicious]

like the fact that he added gangnam style due to this taking place in 2012, i remember when everybody listen to it back then.

[@LittleNoddyLemmyVideos]

This is notably happening in the past decade so the Gangam style here makes sense Duke wouldn't say that about his grace if this happened nowdays, no offense Armies

[@abbeyroadfan94-J.P]

Awesome job with the mini series so far

[@aaron_m_04]

I hope that Harris will be purchased by the SKR, seeing as he’ll most likely be put back into storage

[@bluebellsfan8704]

[@Apriliasx70cc]

i didn't expect this episode. i thought that the last one was the final, but i'm glad i was wrong

[@NwrDuck]

How inspirational. Well done.

[@terryaltherr2481]

If Duke though Gangnam Style would not suit his grace, he'll be mortified to listen to Friday and Thanksgiving

[@fishpop]

3:39 Hmm, Earl is an actual name now that i think about it... It would kinda suit Duke tbh.

[@TankEngine97]

Duke's reaction to Gangnam Style is so relatable.

[@colbyjames7205]

At least she managed to conqure her fear over the bridge

[@eliotreader8220]

I was half expecting for Adeline to blow her whistle as she was passing over the place of her accident.

The Talyllyn Railway recently bought a battery locomotive. You don't suppose the Skarloey railway needs one too...

[@MilkDrinker218]

Y’know, nowadays I’ve moved away from Thomas and Trains in general, finding cars made me feel like I’d rediscovered trains, so much to learn, so much engineering and history. But these videos brought me back a little, for better or for worse, and now I realize why I loved watching these for all those years. Thanks, WNW, your videos need to be preserved so future generations can enjoy them.

[@djdrago9712]

Hey adeline is the something old and new. She was built in 1902 and was rebuilt about a week or two ago (rebuilt in episode 3). So that makes her both the something old for the wedding and the something new as well

[@roxaclock]

i broke when gangnam style was playing that was funny

[@SilverPhoenix177]

Wait did anyone notice that the ghost is still on that bridge from when Duncan got scared by Rusty? Because we know that Adeline isn’t the ghost

Duncan imagined the ghost. It was Adeline all along.

I love that this series is so tied to the real world that this episode has a scene where Duke and Adeline listen to and talk about K-Pop. WildNorWester, did you actually compose a cover of Gangnam Style?

I don't think he did... Probably a custom made version made by somebody else... The nice thing about this is video is that its uploaded on my birthday. But I was in California at the time so I had to watch it when I got home.😊👍😁
