TDRS - Season Eight Episode Five

[@scidididi9564]

i do really like the normal episodes but BY GOD DO I LOVE THE COMEDY EPISODES!

[@NickolasMontagnino]

I've come up with a couple of theories with the scene in the credits. 1. Someone stole Colin's number plate and threw it in a fire, 2. Eddie probably wanted to forget about Colin from his own insanity, 3. Mr. Chairman destroyed it in a blind rage after Zeke ate one of his custard creams, or 4. Barry decided to use Colin's number plate to make a fire so he can make more chicken pies.

[@ThyBluebell]

After watching the entire series for the time throughout the last few days, it’s nice to watch little ‘gag’ episodes like this, they aren’t story based but instead are purely comedic relief, especially after the Da la trip stories.

[@kingorry7223]

The Bluebell Valley that's exactly what I'm did starting from series one, took me about a week.

[@ThyBluebell]

“Aren’t story based.” Fool, I didn’t realize Custard creams were the most important story element in the series.

[@mercury7590]

All this over a custard cream? In the words of Barry, “Oh, for fuck’s sake.”

[@22Tesla]

6:58 HOLY SHITE, that man on that station is a wizard! we found another entrance to Platform 9 3/4 XD

[@DDJP]

We noticed that on test viewings. Perhaps he is a wizard heading for Merecombe Platform 15 2/3rds?

[@isaacborthwick3903]

@@DDJP im so confused as to how the game physics are mostly realistic when coming to trains, AND THEN FUCKING HARRY POTTER MAKES A CAMEO LIKE HOLY SHIT MAN, what a game

[@danielanderson2331]

All this over a custard cream??😂😂

[@ryanqian170]

Hey Mr.Chairman really likes them and they cost a Pool's worth of dough

[@ryanqian170]

Trust me I eat like 20 of those a day and I'm not even a teenager

[@RailwayProductions-nd3tx]

As a real life Mr Chairman myself, loving Custard Creams there is nothing worse than someone taking one!

[@eliotreader8220]

I can not believe that they used those two diesel like race cars and used up all that diesel fuel just because one of them wanted a custard cream cookie

[@judehughes2738]

In the words of the lord himself Jezza Clarkson "I'm gonna get that barstard"

[@HA1LILPALAZZO]

damn could go for some custard creams now >.>

[@hitmanshedproductions8963]

4:41 Best moment from this episode. That exchange between the engines, classic

[@DDJP]

Based on a Robot Chicken sketch. I hope people noticed the way the filters all dissapeared for that scene to imply that everything else has been shot in an unrelistic "action movie" parody...

[@gquayle]

"The Custard Cream Express"

[@sodorflubbs5000]

Wow. This guy is touchy. It’s ONLY A CUSTARD CREAM!!!!

[@DocterGeko]

Just thinking, you should have an episode where Barry gets hit with a lightning bolt and becomes a sane posh douche bag, just for the episode. In the end Theo or Otto could zap him with some sort of rail gun/tazer.

[@dannyh.s.1936]

Railways Of The United Kingdom Honestly I wouldn’t mind if Barry was a “normal” locomotive that was sane.

[@tico360]

He be T posing 5:14

[@isaacborthwick3903]

HE ACTUALLY IS, LOOK AT ALLANS CAB

[@sparkstechnology]

Watching through the series, I have to say I absolutely love this episode, yes it has nothing to do with the story, but its so hilarious, I've watched it over and over again.

[@spring626]

Looked up custard creams. And there small. Not sure why he was trying to get 1 small biscuit.

[@CPTRailfan]

It holds the 77c universe together

[@CrimsonFilms.]

@@CPTRailfanadds up

[@julianyknow6537]

its nice to see the entire dark railway again almost :D its beutiful

[@julianyknow6537]

also judging to the outro something next episode is gonna involve Collin I think his name is, well number 47407 something to do with fire as well..

[@DDJP]

Firstly, yes, ive been trying to improve the look of the railway, as before it looked rather barren around the south end of the line, and I will be continuing to sort out the scenery between Axley and Merecombe once this season is done. As for the other thing, you'll all have to wait and see!

[@julianyknow6537]

well good job on the railway and I will ''wait and see'' :D

[@RailwayProductions-nd3tx]

Very nice and creative intro theme, very tense with great camera work

[@dangerboyproductions1223]

If there's one thing i love in this episode is the great robberies well done

[@traindudesink1804]

best episode EVER

[@marijanamodric6050]

Wow what a chase

[@patrickwebb7311]

I was expecting another episode of the De La Trip arc. I got this instead. I'm cool with this. XD this' brilliant!

[@DDJP]

Cheers, glad you enjoyed it. I know people want to see more of De la Trip, but there is other things going on around the line that we need to address first!

[@patrickwebb7311]

Yeah, and I'm glade we did. It's nice to take a break from arcs sometimes. Plus, we got one of the most hilarious chase scenes of all time. I would've fallen out of my chair if you played "Yakety Sak," as cliche' as that is, during the chase. The music chosen though works perfectly.

[@BrentSudric]

C'mon Mr. Bee!😲

[@georgepom328]

This is a really good episode as it entertains as well as interests

[@davideatherly6212]

The custard cream chase scene is my favorite

[@roaringred]

I'm the opening I thought it was gonna be a runaway chase but I think this ep takes the custard cream in one of my favorite ep

[@kingorry7223]

All that for ONE custard cream, crikey Mr chairman really needs to learn how to share.

[@gbhtrain1325]

WTF did I just watch 😂 Also, love the robot chicken reference

[@DocterGeko]

OK, so the next episode involves Collin and fire. If Leanne comes back or Collin is evil then things will really be buggered. Also here's an episode idea, have one of the pacific's get a glance at Repulse/Leanne and freak out ending with the Repulse/Leanne masquerade being uncovered.

[@DDJP]

That is indeed an idea I am playing with, for one of the mainliners to find Repulse/Leander and shit themselves....

[@TURBOBLU-fx6mn]

Dark do you think you'll ever incorporate any LNER designed locos into your series?

[@trainguy1045realyeah]

9 year olds playing roblox when you delete their engine in a thomas game

[@schuey2113]

I was looking forward to an episode like this in the series

[@DDJP]

Guuuuuud.

[@josheaton7864]

Don't mess with a mans custard cream

[@theenglishnorth7167]

Another great music intro very nice

[@lisaclitheroe4875]

10/10

[@cloud564]

6:30 he just pulls out a gun and they have some like car chase shootout

[@RailwayProductions-nd3tx]

Just thought, Allan and Mr B was only recreating the RHDR's parallel running lol

[@JamesSmithStudios]

6:29 PULL OVER AND GIVE ME MY CUSTED CREAMS!!!!!!!

[@ThomasKinninmonth]

the most randomest of episodes you've made Tom

[@_iBlu]

YES,NEW EPISODE I Was Sooooooo Bored thx Tom

[@SteamMasterGaming]

I really enjoyed this episode.

[@DDJP]

Thanks! I know it doesnt have much substance but as a little fun interlude I thought it was ok...

[@KruskDerTank]

My theory for the credit scene Colin's Number plate is in what seem like a fire box so I guess Colin's still alive and being rebuilt into a different engine?.

[@DDJP]

"Rebuilt into a steam engine"? He was already a steam engine?

[@KruskDerTank]

Sorry I had a typo

[@jamiederrick6408]

Just a biscit

[@justintrainhawk4282]

I have no idea why this had to be such a long Episode for 1 Chase and also, why is Colin's Numberplate burning at the end?

[@DDJP]

As mentioned elsewhere, this episode was basically a filler episode so I could have a play with some of the new special effects at my disposal with the new editing software, and it is not meant to be taken too seriously, more for something fun to break up the seriousness of the season. I can tell that people aren't particularly "chuffed" with this direction, but if it was all too serious, I fear it wouldn't be as interesting. As for it beng overly long, I do agree, and could perhaps have worked better as a TDRS Short, but still, it fits into another idea i'm trying to imply: That Zeke Dark is becoming a more recogniseable character within the series...

[@isaacborthwick3903]

his number plate is just doing what its owner did best

[@boxcarwillies1603]

Nice piece of comedy

[@georgepom328]

Funniest episode of TDRS ever

[@FlattenedFunnel]

T POSE 0:26

[@lawrencerutherford4260]

I share the Chairman's love of custard creams

[@mrostrich5849]

This cured my depression minuses the end credits that was sad

[@DDJP]

A double edged sword then :)

[@engineerskalinera]

Was this done to show off the improvements done to the route? Because the route looks nice.

[@DDJP]

It was indeed one of the reasons I did this episode!

[@kineticrail]

Hilarious what engine is in Mr B sprinting away from Allan. Like the new openning music

[@DDJP]

The intro is just a remix of "9" with Kevin MacLeod's "The Drive", nothing too complex but im glad people like me mixing up the themes a little! Mr B, in case anyone is curious, is a BR Class 04 shunter.

[@sodorflubbs5000]

I’ve listened to this again and I’m sure the case music was either Dr Who or Torchwood! Am I imagining things?

[@traindudesink1804]

best intro ever

[@elliothoucher5768]

Hang on a minute, aren't the the class03/08's top speed 15mph? Cause this seems a lot faster. Great work anyway.

[@GWRProductions-kg9pt]

27 for the 07 I think

[@elliothoucher5768]

Just had a look, its 28mph

[@darkchaotix1productions326]

HIGH SPEED CHASES IN DIESEL SHUNTERS

[@arthouse-of-dank]

WAS THAT IN THE BACKGROUND OF THE CREDIT'S 47407!!!

[@southjerseyboy2844]

Nice all that for a custard cream XD btw what happened to Ed (44430) and Sid and Dave we haven’t seen them in a long time

[@mtd7194]

PennsyRailFan1361 Drew Last episode they were moved in the works for overhaul.

[@southjerseyboy2844]

thanks

[@DDJP]

Indeed, they did. I am purposefully trying to avoid showing Dave for a while. I know he is the main character and all, but Im trying to imply that there is more going on around the railway than just Dave.

[@mtd7194]

Dark DJ Productions I bet that pisses him off that he's not getting any screen time.

[@oliverthegreatwesternengin8029]

Okay...

[@bethkewley4940]

Who's number plat is that?

[@terrier_productions]

Beth Kewley 47407 was an LMS 3F Jinty that worked on the DR but was “blown up”/ scraped.. I can’t remember is name..

[@Dragonmdk]

Colin.

[@julianyknow6537]

cool episode but does this have any effect on the next episode like does mr.dark like find chairmen and zeek dark? and like tell them off?

[@DDJP]

No. This is actually more of a separate/filler episode. For fun.

[@julianyknow6537]

ah ok anyway cool its a nice episode

[@dannyh.s.1936]

2:51 how is Allen going at the same speed as Mr B BR Class 08 diesel switchers (shunters) locomotives only had a top speed of 15 MPH

[@mtd7194]

Actually, Class 08s have a top speed around 20mph

[@DDJP]

Also, also, this is a parody of action movies, so their speed is irrelevant :)

[@dannyh.s.1936]

Dark DJ Productions oh ok

[@NathanielKempson]

tom, sorry to say this but this belongs in Ed and Sid in my opinion.

[@DDJP]

I disagree. Ed and Sid are too lazy to go on a wild chase! Besides, we are all entitled to our opinions so I will take this on board for future productions, perhaps this wasn't what people were expecting, but with this new season, it can't hurt to try new things, right?

[@barryosullivan5255]

I don't get the end credit. Also why was I expecting Barry to pop up at some point

[@246810mat]

Barry O'Sullivan that was Collins Number before he was scrapped..

[@barryosullivan5255]

Deshaun Conners god dang it. Is everything I watch trying to bring feels. First infinity war now this

[@matthewhall7690]

This mite be better than Thomas

[@karlbones5414]

all that for one custard cream good god what has this railway become, also has ed lost it?

[@eliotreader8220]

its a nice train chase but a little pointless over something such as a biscult

[@mercury7590]

You don’t know Mr. Chairman. To him, custard creams are life.

[@Brandon-ev8sf]

Who is 47101? I thought it was Dave but it isn't.

[@DDJP]

Do you mean 47407? ... That was Colin's number...

[@Brandon-ev8sf]

Oh, is this a hint for the next episode?

[@Brandon-ev8sf]

Just remembered he died.

[@justinhicks4897]

Dark DJ Productions so Collins burning in hell ?

[@bradenkilby]

Justin's Trains no just in firebox

[@thenbrglen3642]

Well this episode sucks

[@DDJP]

I know right?
