Ivo's Tune

Ivo must learn to march to the beat of his own drum to find that song in his firebox once more

Never in my life did I think I’d hear “Old Town Road” in a Thomas video, especially with one of your videos! Mannnnnn Max my dude you have outdone yourself on this series of videos tenfold from the model making to the cast and even with some of the interesting themes and ideas! This definitely feels like a very solid RWS book that Ivo more than deserves!

[@LucaandThomasProductions]

I love how ivo's driver comforts him

[@branchlineshunter]

Now this episode was "music to my ears"

[@Pogle]

[@Pogle]

A pleasure to work with you Mr Max. I'm sure it won't be the last time.. !!!

[@MatthewsBranchLine]

The idea that engines will play tunes when they have two whistles is such a fun one. I loved in Tone Deaf, and I love it here. I also love the little Lowrider ditty as he leaves the quarry. Excellent work.

[@mr.c.railway]

I love the little toot from Fred at the end and them all arguing is just hilarious

[@Bulbasaur617]

A fantastic job with the finale of this fanmade RWS series with Ivo Hugh here. Love the story, love Ivo's plan here, and fantastic sets. Especially for the Blue Mountain Quarry. They're all fantastic. Keep up the great work and we'll be looking forward on your next project. Until then, take care!

[@Wishiwashi_64]

Ngl, the trucks were chill… also, are we gonna talk about 4:47? *TWO TRUCKS HAVING SE- SUSHI FOR DINNER!!!*

[@LBSC70]

I love everything about this Ivo's whistle really does sound nice when it echoes in the hills The Owen the incline set was awsome The hello u there and hello done there, was it a reference to a terrier travels vlog or lost treasure The cover lf old town road The Ivor The Engine reference And that end with all lf the engines making music with their whistles is probably the best thing since sliced bread Also Luke

[@Terrier55Stepney]

I think it was originally a lost treasure reference, but now that you mention it, seeing as that vlog snipper was filmed on the real inclines it might have subconsciously been that!

[@Pogle]

Old Town Road was my proudest moment of the saga - it was in this score from the get-go and I'm glad you liked it!

[@winnerd6766]

It was such a pleasure to view this saga, Can’t wait to see what comes in the future!

The passion, the passion

[@StevenGarcia118]

This was a perfect 4 story book about Ivo Hugh. I love that Ivo loves music which I think is sweet and refreshing. I laughed at 5:35 because I had no idea until 6:00 came and I just smiled. Making Old Town Road but with Thomas melody was genius and it works. The ending was hilarious and wholesome. I love every single bit of this episode. I love the new quarry and was surprised to see Owen. His model was well made. I’m inspired. Well done Max! Can’t wait to see what you’ll do next.

[@colinahn]

I love how cute the trucks are

[@nicholassammons3881]

I seems the trucks on the skarloey railway are better behaved than the trucks on the north western railway.

I loved watching this series. It was just like a new railway series book.

[@TheWorksDiesel]

What a wonderful collection of stories Max. These were all a delight to watch over these last few months. Was not expecting Owen and Luke to make an appearance, but a welcome addition nonetheless. Well done!

[@kristiancutler6299]

These four stories in a set feel the most like a RWS book. Thank you for bringing a nothing character from the books to life.

[@TankEngineMedia]

This was a fun finale to this little series. I like that Owen’s inclusion, that’s something you don’t see often. My favorite was the end with the chorus of whistles

[@minty-industrialsteamprodu1747]

Never thought I’d hear Old Town Road and Low Rider worked into the score of a Thomas story. This was definitely fantastic, I loved the set of Rheneas Quarry too

[@Pogle]

hahahah it had to be done!!

[@merlinandmurdoch7837]

I love the individualism of all the new characters, those sweet little trucks like two grandmothers, the annoying farmer, Owen at the "NEW Quarry" with an appropriate cover of the song. Clever little set-up with the cow in the truck from episode two, and bulls from episode three. Fred finally being included, and then seizing his opportunity to be a nuisance, shows his type. Ivo the Engine (Funny) is adorable, sweet removal of the letter F for 'Our Little Engines'. And a new character, accidentally looked ahead so got spoiled of it. Great series, Ivo Hugh may have not been given the chance to offer something new in the original show, but at least there is representation of number seven, cannot say the same for the diesels.

[@UsefulEngine11]

A great end to this four-part book series on Ivo Hugh. I should have known by the thumbnail but I was surprised to see Owen as well as Luke at the end. What else can I say I've enjoyed watching all four parts. Keep up the good work Max!

[@zakthemrconductor5920]

An end of a great arc for young Ivo, this is has been the most down to earth series that has truly become one of your greatest achievements in filming and I can’t wait to see what you’ll build upon this journey.

[@aliminator1310]

This was a pretty smart use of Owen!

[@LolLol-xy4rh]

Such an outstanding masterpiece of craftsmanship and talent you lot brought together to make this. Well Done.

[@loganbloom6191]

i love it ivo should go work at the quarry from time to time. and I wonder what your models of stanley, freddy and bertram would look like?

[@CamtheTramfan]

Once I heard that converted blue mountain mystery music, my first reaction was “Nooo Way”. This series has been very nice, breathing life into a pretty much dead franchise. Keep up the great work man 👍🏻

[@Thatonesaddletank]

2:43 the SECOND this started playing i knew what it was, Love the music here!

[@WoodenRailwayWonderland]

This is my favorite part. Literally everything about it I enjoyed.

[@revden9070]

All the little diddies are so cute. Old Town Road, Lowrider??? Fricking adorably Genius!

[@derailed-productions]

Tremendous story arc here with Ivo. A character that I feel doesn’t get enough love! The Owen appearance fit in really well to.

[@oscarguerrero178]

A lovely finale! The surprise inclusion of Owen and Luke was done well!

[@skeetsfla]

I love how the trucks on the Skarloey Railway are just a little dim-witted and not troublesome unlike on the big railway. Also love how you incorporated the BMQ as the Rheneas Quarry which I thought about too. Finally, I love how all the engines whistle at the yards just like how some of the galas end, and how Fred gets his wish to be recognized, only in a annoying Fred way. Great work Max, this series has inspired me to write an SKR book of my own.

[@Charmaster04]

And I've felt inspired to write Thomas fan stories after encountering this series and others like it!

Love the blue mountain quarry music and quarry set!!!

In the wide shot where everyone’s whistling while the cameras moving, you can see the tracks go off the set

[@harveymaltezmansilla8098]

I like this Mini-Series and the Model Work, and I also like the Blue Mountain References in the Music, when Ivo entered the Quarry, the Whistle Chorus, and inclusion of Owen and the End Scene with Luke

[@NahuelCerron]

Amazing wonderfull story. Can you make the complete saga of our little engines?

[@Tyson-s7j]

You got to love "our little engines". Easily the best Ivo Hugh stories and add a lot to a pretty nothing character in the RWS. 12:12 Wait.. WHAT? Where was Luke in this? My favorite Irish boy 😇

Luke was in an after credits scene. I very good addition, I’d say!

[@thepolishgenerator5915]

Man, this was so peak... It's a shame it's over, since I kinda fell in love with Ivo Hugh here, but I'm glad it happned. Technically, also impressive. Also nice blue plate at the edge of the set in the ending.

[@sashathetankengine]

Love this story! The fact that you managed to include Owen in your interpretation of Rheneas Quarry (and Luke by extension) is honestly really impressive. Truth be told, I was thinking that the finale would involve the ranger rover stealing from the quarry and Ivo Hugh would have to use his cleverness to stop it. But this is just as good! Love the references in the music throughout! Overall, a lovely story! Although, what was the last song with the whistles supposed to be?
