The most nostalgic timeline for me, and the one that affected me the most. As a kid, I loved it because talking trains and because the narration was so soothing. As an adult, I love the characters and narration still, but I can also admire the craftsmanship, how much time and effort it took to make these model sets and engines, the mechanics required to make their eyes move and steam come out, and the meticulous filming process. And discovering the deeper meanings of the stories and real life events that inspired them is the icing on the cake. Thank you so much, Tug for putting this all together.

Thomas And Friends was the first time I was introduced to the concept of a timeline. As a kid, I could never wrap my head around why Peter Sam was once called Stuart; or where all the narrow gauge engines even came from. I had vague - but vivid - memories of seeing the narrow gauge episodes; particularly the one where Duke rescues Sir Handel from crashing off the cliff, but I didn't understand how Duke was no longer on screen or where the name changes came in.

Great idea but it would be cool to see the model and cgi series combine into one timeline by rewriting adventure begins to be Thomas' and Edward's arrival on sodor to construct the north western railway in their old accurate E2 and K2 shapes and water tank and brakes and steaming problems before being overhauled and rebuilt to fix their problems and their tv series style shapes with the S&M engines, W&S engines (preserved at the vicarstown railway museum and ulfstead castle, Eagle and Mika who now work at the peel godred branch with the electric engines, Wallace and his brother and sister Timothy and Martha now preserved at the vicarstown railway museum and Kirk Ronan branch and Alfred and crovan and Hiro's backstory being rewritten as the first international standard gauge engine on sodor with the first overall international sodor engine being Smudger and knowing Thomas, Edward, Henry, Gordon, James and the narrow gauge engines before.

[@spongebobcoolduke1537]

and it will show Gordon, Henry and James arrival on sodor, Henry in his old shape and James in black paint before being repainted red and in his old accurate to his basis shape before being rebuilt into his tv series shape.

[@samuelfarris1949]

My take on a timeline for "Thomas & Friends", which I have been developing off-focus, follows the Railway Series-canon one pretty closely in respect for Awdry's original vision. There are some adjustments made though to accommodate aspects unique to the TV series take that I thought added weight to the overall picture. Pre-1000 - Great Waterton is founded as a town on the Island. 1683 - Great Waterton inaugurates its Waterworks, which powers clean water from a spring off Culdee Fell to provide clean water across Sodor. 1860s - Great Waterton is connected to the Sodor & Mainland Railway via Ballahoo; this ultimately becomes a branch line of the North Western. The events of 'Wharf and Peace' from Season 10 take place as a young Skarloey gets to grips working with trucks with his historic friend Neil's support. 1874 - The events of Season 7's 'The Old Bridge' occur during (historically-correct) stormy weather, with Mr. Mack, the original manager of Skarloey, in the place of Sir Topham Hatt. 1881 - As I clarified in my expansion of the Railway Series timeline, Falcon aka Sir Handel first arrives on the Mid Sodor Railway as their No. 3. He is originally minus his trailing wheels without a proper cab; the bucking and humiliation this causes stimulates his pessimistic attitude. 1887 - Falcon goes back to his builders to have trailing wheels fitted; he is given his blue paintjob around the same time. 1895 - Falcon suffers his 'Bulldog' mishap, whilst double-heading with the recently-rebuilt Duke to help break him into working again. The contempt that had been building up between the two is resolved. 1904 - Falcon is sent back to his builders again; this time to be given a new boiler and new frames. Much of him is renewed to replace worn parts. 1909 - Freddie arrives on the Mid Sodor Railway under trial. He stays for a while, proving himself an asset in any role he's given, earning him the nickname 'Fearless' Freddie. 1911 - Trevor the Traction Engine is bought by his original owner from an agricultural trade show on the Mainland; he is shipped to Sodor to begin work. 1920s-1940s - The events of Season 1 occur (if you would count Toby as being a resident of the Island of Sodor, although my take instead acknowledges his Great Eastern Railway roots as per the Railway Series canon). The flashbacks of 'Granpuff' and 'You Can't Win' also occur at this time, along with the flashbacks related to Skarloey and Rheneas. Great Waterton's spring dries up, and a new hydro-electric Power Station to the west near Peel Godred is built around a more plentiful supply of water; this in part triggers the closure stages of the Mid Sodor Railway. My take of 'Duncan Gets Spooked', which instead revolves outwardly around Duke, Falcon and Stuart, occurs towards their Old Line's endgame. 1950s-1960s - The events of Seasons 2-4, minus the singled-out moments from Season 4 I mentioned above, happen at this stage. 1967-1968 - Murdoch and Arthur are bought from British Railways for scrap-value, to help with revised service diagrams on the Main Line. Murdoch is more open-minded than his TV show portrayal, whilst Arthur after his unfortunate trial on Thomas's branch line, begins work shunting at the Big Station in the place of Duck. 1970s-1990s - Events beyond Season 4 occur (though not necessarily in exact order). Fleeting engines appear as a result of the Fat Controller opening up his Works to contracted work for privately-owned or museum engines from elsewhere, who are permitted to be trialled on the Railway to be broken into service. Regards, Samuel Farris.

[@TheOneTrueDragonKing]

I never read the Railway Series, starting my Thomas journey in the year of my birth, 1993, with the model series and TTTE/STS on television. So unlike most fans I will always default to the TV series timeline as that is what I am most familiar with. That is not to say that the RWS is in some way wrong, after all as you said, it WAS written by the man himself, the Reverend Awdry. However, I will always be far more of a fan of the TV series than I am of the books. To each their own personal preference after all. Nice job, Unlucky Tug.

[@DKQuagmire]

growing up, I only got to see the stories from seasons 1 and 2, narrated by Ringo Starr (the UK version). I remember getting excited to go to "The Early Learning Center". a toy shop that most towns in the UK had, which had a targeted demographic of toddlers and pre-teens. not only did they sell wooden railway thomas toys, but they always had their own TV in store playing a Thomas video. I can remember sitting on one of the bean-bag cushions and watching a couple of season 3 episodes i had never seen before like Henry's forest, which i begged my mum to buy me. but she never did sadly. however on a sleepover at a friends house we not only watched one of his season 3 videos, but also a video filled with only the Skarloey and narrow guage engine stories! we may be in our 30's now, but we still to this day unconsciously hum Duncan's theme song to each other.

[@jaanshersaeed4541]

Idea on when things could take place in the TV Series (note: I don’t see the Model and CGI eras as different canons): The first few episodes of Season 1 could be set in the mid-late 1930s at the most due to how in Thomas’ Train there’s a portrait of what seems to be a LMS Princess Royal Class (which were built in 1933 and 1935) in Sir Topham Hatt’s office (I can’t tell completely, that might be a Royal Scot too). Hiro could’ve also shown up on Sodor in the 1930s but a separate Railway from the NWR explaining why he thought he was the only engine on Sodor. I’d also say things in Season 2 were set post-1948 when British Railways was formed due to the Blood and Custard coaches, the diesels showing up, and the theme of steam engines being scrapped with Donald and Douglas showing up, and you could say most things in S2 take place when they did in the RWS. As for when some arrivals specifically happened; -1962: The Diseasel (the year when the Class 28s were allocated to Barrow in Furness) with the last few episodes of Season 2 happening. -1963: Tender Engines (when Flying Scotsman was preserved) with all the other episodes of Season 3 happening as well as some of the first few episodes of Season 4 happening. -1964: Bowled Out and Double Teething Troubles (BR switched to Rail Blue in 1965 and D261 and Derek showed up in BR Green) with most of the rest of Season 4, Off The Rails and Down The Mine, Percy Takes The Plunge, and Season 5 happening. The Daisy saga could’ve even happened around here due to not appearing with the rest of the engines in Missing Christmas Tree, Special Letter, or Season 3. With these possibilities, Season 6-onwards could be set from 1965 and after. Rex Bert and Mike’s stories in Season 20 could’ve also happened when most of the events of Season 3 were happening (to align with the RWS timeline) but Duck pulling the Slip Coaches in Mike’s Whistle begs to differ.

[@DavidBContentExtravaganza3967]

Besides, Rex Bert and Mike’s stories in Season 20 takes place in the current time years after Series 3. The TV show can do it's own thing you know. Besides, models can't do it.

[@jaanshersaeed4541]

@@DavidBContentExtravaganza3967 Yeah I know that. But still, some things can take place during a season before the season it’s part of; for example An Engine With Many Colors came out in Season 22 but it’s set during the events of Season 21 and here, The Unlucky Tug is having the Off The Rails and Down The Mine set after Season 1 due to how Paint Pots and Queens was done later, and he also had Derek arrive around the events of Season 3 due to what happened in Heroes.

I'd like to imagine the franchise like this: The RWS, Model series, and CGI series are all canon, but are in different continuties. They all share many of the same characters and concepts, but each one differs in their portrayals of said characters and adding new ones exclusive to each continuity. Bear from the RWS, Neville from the Model series, and Stephen from the CGI series are all canon to the franchise, but are part of different continuities and timelines. This can be seen in some events like the Sad Story of Henry, each continuity has its own slightly different version of the same story but the story is still canon to the franchise. Or Thomas and the Trucks, where again, the story itself is canon, but each continuity has different portrayals of it. This is my personal opinion on the franchise

They could still be retconned as other engines who were visiting the railway. It doesn’t have to be Duck and Donald. We do see Daisy, BoCo and Mavis’s models used for the diesels at the yard in Vicarstown for BR. It doesn’t mean they actually are Daisy, BoCo and Mavis.
