Three Railway Engines Gruff

[@TankEngine97]

This was honestly better than the original season 20 episode. I love DarthWill3's Alec Baldwin narration.

[@victorgaminglounge3967]

I absolutely agree on with you this adaptation is A LOT better than the original Season 20 Episode. And speaking of Alec Baldwin's narrations style by DarthWill I was thinking that this story would belong in Season 5, like maybe replace this story with one of the more mediocre episodes from that season like Oliver's Find.

[@MacsensRailway]

Oh yeah

[@nachojjful]

@@victorgaminglounge3967 I love it whenever Darthwill3 voices Diesel, Spencer and Alfred in T1E2H3's videos and in some other channels, it makes me feel like he sounds just like The Grinch and Darth Vader. :)

[@thesudriana016]

Now this is a much better version of the S20 episode we all despised: Instead of three branch line engines, we've got our main Three Railway Engines (that started it all) in it. Kinda has a S5 feel to it and DarthWill3 does an amazing job narrating it with his unique Alec Baldwin impression.

[@DarthWill3]

I couldn't agree more on that last sentence. And thanks!

[@victorgaminglounge3967]

I was thinking of the exact same thing this would fit very well in Season 5 like maybe replace this story with one of the mediocre episodes of that season like Oliver's Find.

[@Henry03Studios]

DarthWill nailed the Baldwin’s Henry and Gordon voices. This was also really well written! Great job!

[@DarthWill3]

That went better than I hoped! Glad to have inspired you to put a Season 5 feel into this video! And I'm really impressed by the Andrew Brenner style you've added. The Buried Truck may be a great story writer, but when it comes to narrating, he's got nothing on _me._ LOL Next time you have me do a narration, I'll be sure to show you how I can do a rendition of Alec Baldwin's Sir Topham Hatt, Lady Hatt, Bill & Ben, Cranky, Salty, Oliver, Toad, Elizabeth, etc. Keep me posted. :D

[@parkerproductions4546]

You did a great job man! The only thing I'll say - this is just something I noticed cus I'm interested in this stuff - is there were a couple of words I noticed that were pronounced different to what Baldwin would say them with his NY/Eastern accent. 7:25 has the pronunciation of a strong T where Baldwin would reflect a 'Flap T' (whereby a 'D' sound is made instead i.e. wadder = water) and in another sentence "fog" is mispronounced as "fahrg" instead of the NY pronounced "forg". Would make sense if it was West coast like California but ofcourse Baldwin is known for his NY accent. Ofcourse, it's understandable to make a slip up when one is not from the area (certainly I'm not!) ad it's only a minor nitpick. But I just wanted to mention this incase you found it helpful. I look forward to hearing your return as Baldwin soon! ;)

This version is miles better than the original episode in S20. DarthWill3 did a great job narrating the episode; I find his Alec Baldwin impressions of Gordon and Henry really funny. Nice work on this one! 10/10!

[@BramGroatFilms]

Yes; DarthWill3 is a great VA; I've worked with him before, usual with him being Diesel. My next project actually includes a short exchange between a character he voices and a character you voice! Also, brilliant adaptation; I particularly love how Toby is FAR more in character than in the original. The throwback to "Cows!" is also very nice. I feel bad for Gordon's passengers though.

I agree that Cynic's "Three Railway Engines Gruff" is miles better than the original episode, but I wouldn't call it great. I like that Edward, Gordon and Henry are in character throughout, and that Henry and Gordon's fear of crossing the bridge is justified. DarthWill's narration here is also great; he's come a long way as a narrator (and a voice actor in general, though he's always been good at that). However, it's when Gordon hurries all the way back to Knapford and abandons his train there that prevents the story from being great. I know the focus is supposed to be on the engines overcoming the noise under the bridge, but the fact that Gordon just abandoned his passengers is never addressed; we don't see them complain about it, which they normally would in this situation, and there's no indication of any repercussions. That just takes you out of the moment. Again, if Cynic is reading this, I hope he takes this into account next time he writes.
