My step brothers name is Thomas, the same thing happened to him where kids called him Thomas The Tank Engine. The only difference however is that *he was ACTUALLY named after the Tank Engine,* because his mom let his older brother pick his name while she was pregnant. He was still a small child and was obsessed with the show

Same thing happened to me actually! My cousin asked me (i was probably 10 at the time) what she should name her baby...I fully thought she was joking. I threw a few things out, and at the end I said "what about Thomas? like Thomas the Train..." and for some reason both her and her husband really liked that idea. So a few months later they had the baby and my mom ended up being the one to tell me they named him Thomas...I was genuinely shocked. They raised him on Thomas the Train and everything. Its still surreal to think about. Even more so to hear that somebody shares that story!

A similar thing happened to me, except it was *ME* who was named Thomas. Before I was born, my parents and brother were figuring out what to name me, and my brother, who was an avid Thomas fan back then, wanted to name me Thomas if I was a boy and Percy if I was a girl. And I *lived* off of Thomas, in particular, the widely famed Series 5, and it was when I was *two* years old as well, and I LOVED that season. (Yes, my older brother did in fact think Percy was a girl back then)

Sometimes they're doing it as a form of proletariat protest - S.C.Ruffy is basically a union leader organising strikes among the trucks, seizing their brakes on so they can't/won't do the engines' bidding. Other trucks seem to just run out of control and cause chaos out of some sense of duty to anarchy. There was an episode where the tender engines went on strike in protest at having to pull heavier loads than the tank engines; in another (briefly shown with Percy as the spokes-train) they form a "deputation", and that is the word used in this children's show, to plead their collective case for Donald and Douglas to stay. This lore goes *deep*.

I must point out that, at least in the later series, engines can survive underwater, at least until they're completely corroded by the salt water. Salty and Victor were both knocked into the water until they could be rescued at high tide. I don't know for sure, but Lorry 1 might also have had to wait for high tide before he could be loaded onto a barge and brought back to the island. So, drowning is definitely a threat, but it'd take a while to actually kill them.

For those who don't know, the once extremely brutal Surfshark sponsorship segment was edited out of the video due to a ban, not from Surfshark themselves, but from the Advertising Standards Authority, which regulates ads in the UK. "The ad portrayed a realistic depiction of a man tied to a chair, beaten and attacked with weapons, in an attemps to convince him to take out a Surfshark product. The wan was shown with visible injuries, he was punched in the face, stabbed in the leg and tasered around the neck". Tom maybe hasn't found Surfshark's breaking point, but he sure did found the ASA's Godspeed Tom.

Erm, anyone else find it terrifying that none of the examples of drowning actually say they die, only that ending up in the water is an implied terrible thing? What's worse? They died, or they are now doomed to eternal isolation until they literally just rust away due to a lack of interest in search and rescue efforts? These trains know they're disposable pawns on some level and that certain situations are just considered a write off where the train in question is just left to rot away.

<a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="820">13:40</a> You forgot to mention the fact that immediately after the scene where the train falls into the water, the narrator says that people working in that area have claimed that when there's a full moon, they see the ghost of the train trying to cross the bridge, only to disappear before making it to the other side. This not only implies that the trains have souls of some kind, it also blantantly shows that the train that fell off the bridge had, in fact, died. Also, if I remember correctly, the narrator says at the beginning of the scene that the train was "trying to get home," implying that the train was fully sentient. This has led me to theorize that at one point all the trains were fully sentient, but due to incidents like the one shown at <a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="820">13:40</a>, they decided to make the trains semi-dependent on human operators.

I sort of have a theory as to why the troublesome trucks are so messed up. In the scrapyards, we see that the dead trains are missing their faces. As evidenced by the destruction of scruffy, a train can still live as long as it’s face is intact. My theory is that the scrapped trains have their faces placed on the trucks in order to become “really useful” again. This process irreversibly damages the train’s mind, rendering them insane, and those with any semblance of sanity left are suicidal.

As a parent of littles, I’ve seen quite a bit of Thomas, particularly the classic show. I was struck by the apparent contradiction of the trains’ agency. The trains are frequently chided for causing “confusion and delay” when they make mistakes, so one would assume they control their own actions. But in a first season episode, a self-important Thomas discovers that he actually has no control over his movements, and is therefore completely dependent on his human operators. But if this true, how then can the trains be held responsible for anything that goes wrong, or be praised for “really useful” accomplishments? It would seem their human operators should be getting lectures from Sir Topham Hat, and not the trains themselves.

I don’t think the stories were very consistent about that. Sometimes the trains have no control over themselves and rely on their human drivers, sometimes they can somehow influence something to make themselves move, in TATMR the trains drive themselves because magic..... I remember being confused about it as a little kid and essentially making a headcanon that the trains drive themselves but have human operators that ride along in case the train needs maintenance on the rails or something.

There’s a reason why they can be held accountable: Each Engine has their own mechanical “quirks” that they might have control over. You have to remember, they are meant to be modeled after real locomotives and how real railways operate. What carries over from this are how all the locomotives have “personalities” that they have tied to them, which is why they often can be “punished” for their actions. For example, Henry is kept held up in the tunnel because Henry already has mechanical issues. It wouldn’t be hard to rationalize that he could have had a mechanical fault that was unknown to the crew that led to him not wanting to move.

@@MatthewChenault This. Ask anyone who has driven, fired or otherwise worked with Steam locomotives and they will all tell you that, even though each engine in a class was built (mostly) to the same blueprint - because they were hand-made by different people in different factories over a period of years, and because they are complex machines that aim to harness the primordial and powerful natural forces of fire and steam, they are each of them unique. While a class may prove effective or ineffective overall, within that class each engine will have its own quirks, which the crews came to see as personalities. This is exactly the inspiration behind the anthropomorphism of the engine in The Railway Series in the first place. A crew that knew the engine well could get it to perform despite its quirks, a crew that was new to the engine would treat it like any other member of its class and find it difficult to get on with. This relationship between engine and crew is at the core of the enduring magic of steam engines. And it gives the Rev.Awdry the basis for many of the stories. For example, say we have 75076 and 75078 who work on the same railway. They are, members of the same class, built only a week apart, siblings of you will. But 75078 has always had an issue. In cold weather it’s breaks tend to stick on and only the burliest drivers can pull the lever hard enough to disengage them. He gains a reputation for being a stubborn engine who hates the cold. Meanwhile the team that built 75076 were having a really good day when they finished her. She’s the paragon of her class, mechanically perfect. She steams well, runs smooth and is responsive to drive. Better than perfect in fact, the right crew can coax power out of her that other engines in the class can only dream of, and she can deputise for more powerful locomotives in a pinch. She’s saved the day many time. There’s just something about her and she is beloved by the crews. Consequently she is taken out almost every day. There’s a lot of pressure on her, she’s worked hard. The truth that nobody wants to talk about is that she’s getting worn out. One frosty day 75078 is refusing to leave his shed again. Something about ‘if my usual crew were here they’d know what to do but I’m not going out in that for you.’ 75076 is supposed to be having some routine maintenance done today, but it will have to wait, she’s got to cover for her layabout brother, again. Of she goes, no grumbling from her, she’s the best engine on the railway. But she really needed that maintenance. They’ve relied on her too much. Deep in her workings a component finally wears out and she grinds to a halt. The controller is stunned, this never happens to 75076! Fortunately, 75078’s crew had arrived earlier. They’ve been called in from their day off. Since they arrived they’ve moved fire barrels that warm the shed crews closer to 75078. Appreciating the warmth and the care of his regular crew, 75078 puts aside his distaste for the cold and heads out to rescue his sister for a change. The truth is, 75078 was built like his sister, but for the fault with his breaks that nobody can put a finger on. It’s just part of who he is. When you ask him nicely, and work with him, rather than against him, he’s every bit a match for his superstar sister. Blah blah blah - you see how such machines can become characters, and how operating them can easily become stories that revolve around their personalities.

I personally think that some of the trucks used to be trains. This theory implies that they're made from old engine parts and have the faces (and consciousness) of the scrapped trains, but the process of repeatedly being ripped apart and reformed/re-shaped into what is essentially another species has basically made them snap, so now they're just batsh*t crazy, find everything funny, deeply resent trains as a whole and are pretty much just suicidal, welcoming death on a near daily basis... This is the only way I can rationalise their behaviour, otherwise it really doesn't make much sense why they act the way they do. The only normal trucks are the ones who don't have any faces, so they're most likely just made from regular materials, but the ones with faces are all nuts, so something must have made them mentally break, and I doubt it was purely from being bumped around and being filled with coal and stones.

@Christopher Greig I actually wrote a story about why the trucks are so crazy and suicidal. 1st You have to take into account that they can’t move under their own power (except for slipping their brakes on), 2nd they are constantly being moved about so there’s a need for socialization, and the only way they know how is to be rude to the engines. 3rd If you read the railway series or watched the show, there are several moments where the engines will bump the trucks out of frustration or just for fun. So that could be a reason for the trucks being as rude as they are. Another reason could be a jealousy of the coaches getting better treatment regardless of the fact the coaches are more delicate. And lastly the only way they can feel in control of their lives is to cause trouble for the engines. Meaning that if they derail an engine or break away they can say “yeah, we did a thing!” Because being really useful isn’t that hard for them to do, it’s just boring.

The 1955 Modernisation plan of British Railways. Fasten the replacement of steam power to diesel and electric power. 5 years of research to make a new diesel engine locomotive for BR. And the 60s really were the dark times of BR steam. But those early years, some steam engines were bought back by BR from scrap as their new diesel keeps breaking down. After ironing out the problems in the mid 60s, it just keeps on rolling the steamers to scrap. So mush so, that the scrappers could not catch up to the amount of engines to be scrapped. And modernisation to the rolling stock to replace old ones also kept piling up. Scrappers found out that scrapping trucks and old rolling stock is easier than locomotive engines. So they left them for some time until the steam preservation kicks. Alot of the working steam engines of UK experienced the life of rotting away in a scrapyard. The narrow gauge is a different story. They kept running their old assets as theres no way they can buy new engines to run on the small line. Profits are tight. Some lines are sold in a package including whole assets. And their engines kept on running even if the line became a museum. Most of these engines never retire as they are cheaper to maintain than mainline ones. In Germany, theres a place were steam is not dead but is kept running. Their modernisation plan is not as fast as BR in uk. Most steamers of Germany didnt retire until the 90s. Heck, theres even a shop with complete tools to make a brand new engine. It supports maintenance to the steam locomotives currently running inside and its neighbouring countries. The techniques and experience to build a steam engine still lives on strongly there. They even made the new boiler of the brandnew A1 Peppercorn Tornado. And they'lle be building more for their own too.

Henry: As we know from later episodes (special coal, flying kipper), Henry had a flaw. His firebox was too small for his size and he was a bad steamer. The crew couldn't keep his fire big enough to keep him in steam, so he would have trouble starting in the morning, and run out of steam quickly. I think that rainy day, Henry was struggling to keep steam (what better way to make a fire even shittier than to wet the coal, then all that cold rain hitting his boiler making it even worse. then making the rails slippery so more tractive effort is wasted.) So Henry was MASKING his flaws (having trouble keeping moving) by pretending to "not want to get his paint wet" when he succumbed to his exhaustion and wanted to sit inside the tunnel for 10 minutes to gather his breath (out of the rain, so the coal gets dry and his boiler isn't getting cooled). He didn't want to admit (to himself or others) that he was having trouble moving, so he just put on a show of being an asshole about it so they wouldn't mock him for being a shitty fake Gresley A1 (what Gordon is) because he wants to prove to himself that he can be every bit as good as Gordon. It takes 3 seasons till we get to the bottom of Henry's penhance for being lazy... He's actually physically flawed, and needs special coal to keep his energy up... like a locomotive version of a Celiac. Once they get his diet right, he's just as capable as anyone (as long as he sticks to his diet). Then, just as he's settling into his new life as a capable employee, no longer having to find excuses to lay down or pass out every few hours, he has a massive accident through no fault of his own, and is then taken to Crewe. Where his memories are downloaded into a new Stainer Black5 and the old Celiac Henry is scrapped... er I mean "He was fixed" with his entire shape being changed.

I wasn't a fan of the "the original henry is dead" idea but, in RWS continuity, it does make some sense. I mean, literally nothing was salvaged from his old shape in the books, probably not even his wheels and definitely not his tender. He largely remains the same in the TVS but only because of budget reasons, it would've been fascinating to see a contrast between old and new shape Henrys in the TVS if the budget allowed such.

I think they can die of old age, but not in the way that we think. After a while, and you see this in modern vehicles, too, replacing the parts doesn’t really do anything anymore. I think that’s the point when old age starts to take its toll on them. Being left to the elements will kill them, but not if they are left in sightings like Glenn. Also, he technically wasn’t usurped because he worked for a different company, so the numbering is different I eat, he was number one for a different company...

Gods, it brought back some repressed childhood trauma seeing that scene again. Like, it didn't exist in my brain, and then i saw it here today, and remember it being my first time confronting an untimely death. Being silently horrified by dead animals, mauled by dogs on the property, a swan i had raised, gone missing to be found with its throat ripped out, my young uncle's heart attack killing him, all these things were different once this scene explained to me that "you can die before youre old and grey, and they may never find you, and not really care." I pack to go work at the Grand Canyon next month. What if i fall in some obscure place? Will they find me? Or will i be another body, lost and unrecovered, forgotten to cliffs and food for condors to feed their young? How children's media can make you fear things you try to forget, that you are fine to not remember.

The old stopmotion look is honestly very pleasing. Not to mention how it was the most practical way of producing a cartoon back in the day.

It’s a theme park, not a dedicated model railway museum.
