A chilling but heartwarming story. Nice origin for Thomas. I've got a feeling that other engine he saw tried to make it to Sodor many years ago but never reached it.

I like to picture that thing stalking Thomas as a physical manifestation of there insecurities and deep rooted fears. However I don’t think it was trying to torment Thomas I think it was trying to help him. It was the very thing that motivated him to make the long journey to sodor in the first place and it kept pushing him to keep going and after they reached the island that thing stopped following them.

Loved the mystery of this story! My own take is that the shadow engine is a mental manifestation of Thomas’ anxieties. He was mistreated where he previously worked and I imagine the threats of scrapping were commonly thrown about there. This built up in his mind and he eventually started to visualise this other “engine”. During his escape to Sodor, his mind focuses on what would happen to him if he were caught and he once again sees the “engine” - this engine is an image of himself, an image of the state he’d be in if they caught him, salvaging parts off him until he was no more. I imagine he still saw this image for a while after being taken in by The Fat Director. With a little help from kind, old Edward, Thomas eventually overcomes his demon.

I do love how this mysterious black engine is never explained it’s the same fear of the unknown factor that I was trying to aim for in (the old lead mine) but this does it way better was it a figment of Thomases imagination was it a ghost was it imaginary or was it stalking him like a predator why was he the only one who could see and hear it why does it look exactly like him it’s never explained and it forces us to piece together the puzzle and come to our own conclusions I love that

Great work on this. It's a shame that we don't know what the haunted engine stalking Thomas was. I think it might be his fear, or something like that.
@Enigma2Me2 жыл бұрын
It's a pity that no one is allowed to adapt these stories anymore, because this would really be something grand to see with imagery. Then again, given that most of the story obfuscates the fact that it's Thomas who's the main protagonist, it'd probably lose something in translation. Not to mention how people would have to figure out how to make the shadowy engine look convincing.

These kinds of stories always makes me want to see the aftermath; do the original owners accuse the NWR and STH of theft? Is there a legal battle over who the engine belongs to? Does STH suggest asking the engine only to be scoffed at with the remark of "ASK the ENGINE?! My dear man, you talk as if it were a person such as ourselves and not just a pile of nuts and bolts I LEGALLY happen to own!!"?!

Someone must make a video with this story but not show Thomas face until the end and maybe the creature could be Thomas brother Timothy in his shadow form and looking for his way to soder and stoping anyone who dare to pass it by night
