Trackmaster Shorts S3E10: The Brave and the Boulder

[@ZakModelsStuff]

I love how even though the series has gotten more serious it hasn't lost that silly charm it's always had, Duncan's "I've always wanted to go skydiving" bit is comedy gold

[@Ryan_Rocketz]

Thank you, I always try to keep it from getting too deep haha

[@trackmastertomy]

Literally one of my favourite Thomas videos of all time. Amazing job!

[@Ryan_Rocketz]

Woah, thank you so much! I’ve watched quite a few of your videos so this means a lot to me!

[@scottishtwinstudios]

The camera work and writing on this one is top notch. The skydiving bit got me good.

[@Ryan_Rocketz]

Thank you! Glad you liked that part

[@roxaclock]

My favorite bit of the soundtrack is still the trip up to boulder quarry the second time

[@Ryan_Rocketz]

Thank you, I really tried to make that part hype and I’m happy with how it turned out

[@amitysluzara2022]

Fabulous work as always! That viaduct set was absolutely stunning!

[@Ryan_Rocketz]

Thank you so much! I put a lot of work into that viaduct so I’m glad you like it!

[@amitysluzara2022]

​@Ryan_Rocketz you're welcome ^^ all the hard work absolutely paid off! It was absolutely stunning!

[@drevianedwardsproductions9244]

Really awesome, man. The music, sets, everything is just chef's kiss.

[@Ryan_Rocketz]

Thank you so much!!

[@71theredengine]

The lore gets deeper and deeper but I like it

[@Trainmaster16]

Fantastic episode! This was a really great story all around and really endearing! All your sets, customs, and visual style are always amazing

[@steelworksryan3285]

Remember how I was complaining when I didn’t know what happens next? I will never do that with your series ever again. This was worth every single day I waited. This might be my new favorite episode. Your voice acting is spot on and it makes me wanna hire you to voice in my series. (PS that can wait. I need to say more positive things.) Freddie and Duncan dying was like the funniest thing ever, and Again with Elisabeth’s ME ME ME ME ME ME! You know how to take the simplest line ever and make it America’s funniest home videos. That’s an awesome talent. Keep up the good work Ryan. No matter how long it takes the end result is worth it. ;)

[@steelworksryan3285]

Also if you’re not interested in voice acting I totally understand. The comment was kind of unscripted. XD

[@Ryan_Rocketz]

I did my best to do a lot of different voices for this one so thank you! My sister is great at voicing Elizabeth haha. And I appreciate you sticking around for the long wait! Thank you so much!

[@SplatterStudios1567]

THIS IS AMAZING!!!

[@Ryan_Rocketz]

Thank you!

[@BillandBenProductions6792]

Amazing episode, I like how you included Trackmaster engines and diecast engines at the same time in this episode

[@Ryan_Rocketz]

Thank you, I’m glad you pointed that out too, I always enjoy using the ERTLs and Take Alongs!

[@SDOT825]

Hands down a great episode

[@Ryan_Rocketz]

Thank you!

[@Deputationproductions1]

It’s always gonna be a goated day when Ryan uploads

[@peckettproductions]

Duncan jumping of the bridge was golden! 😂

[@Ryan_Rocketz]

Haha glad you liked that!

[@legominecraftrailway7404]

Amazing episode. It probably doesn’t work like this, but Rusty should’ve been like “ when you reverse time none of the events happened right? So doesn’t that mean I still have a wish?” Anyway, the soundtrack was bangin, the story was incredible, and I love how Freddy just got squashed into a piece of paper. I also lore the implied with Proteus and boulder. This might actually be my favourite series on KZbin, phenomenal work

[@Ryan_Rocketz]

That’s a funny idea, I might have to use that 😂 Glad you liked the soundtrack, that’s always one of my favorite parts to do. And yes I tried to make Freddie’s “death” serious but goofy at the same time haha. Thank you so much, I really appreciate your comment!

[@thechristmasguy45]

Another great episode. I genuinely love Rusty and Proteus relationship, it was really wholesome here and i really felt bad for thumper! I don’t know if anyone has said this but Duke kinda reminds me of the MCUs Portrayal of Odin. Maybe thats just me but fantastic episode!!!

[@Ryan_Rocketz]

Thank you! I really tried to portray Rusty and Proteus as friends, glad you liked that. And yes, I am making Duke into more of a gray-area character… more on that soon

[@thechristmasguy45]

[@jamytvchannel4997]

Awesome video, cant wait for the part 2 of this

[@Ryan_Rocketz]

Thank you so much! Stay tuned!

[@Deputationproductions1]

I love the detail on the thumbnail how each gauge is represented, skarloey engines being small, and the standard gauge/ rolling stock are big, w episode

[@Ryan_Rocketz]

Wow, you might be the first person to notice that! I’m glad to hear that, I care a lot about the thumbnails!

[@legominecraftrailway7404]

Wait, I never noticed that before. That’s some insane attention to detail.

[@Ryan_Rocketz]

Thank you!!

[@toby.fan9198]

This was better than I was expecting

[@Thenumbersthatareodd]

0:44, are we just going to gloss over that really nice viaduct?

[@GustawStudios23]

Thumper is really silly i love him

[@Ryan_Rocketz]

I agree, I think my sister did a great job voicing him!

[@UsefulEngine11]

This was your best episode yet Ryan! I love the character pairings and dynamics between everyone. Glad that Thumper's been found and that Rusty finally made his wish. I just hope the others go searching on the Mid Sodor Railway sooner rather than later. Also I love how you set up Mighty Mac's name board very clever. Although kind of wondering why Mac talks like Kermit the frog. Anyway I'm so excited to see what happens next! By the way how did you make that Viaduct cuz it's so impressive?

[@Ryan_Rocketz]

I’m glad you liked the character pairings, I thought it would be cool to make an episode featuring like Bertram, Mighty Mac, and Freddie all together. And I appreciate your comment about Mighty Mac’s name board! For Mac’s voice, that’s just kind of what I envisioned him sounding like haha. And the viaduct is made of cardboard with painted paper glued on, it took a long time to make 😂 Thank you so much!

[@ernie7554]

16 minutes is NOT short and I WILL be suing >:( But seriously this is really good and I shall now binge watch the entire series

[@TheGreatOAnimationStudios]

Great work as always, I been your watching videos from my other channel but I just sub to this one, keep up the awesome work.

[@Ryan_Rocketz]

Thank you! I appreciate that!

[@thomasthebluet2910]

Nice one!

Thank you!

[@Micheal_Jackson_Official]

How do you do your sunset and night background they look so good

[@Ryan_Rocketz]

For every shot that has the sky in it (besides the wide shots of the viaduct), I build the whole set in front of a TV screen!

[@sodor_editz]

Yet another W video

[@Kukaak]

Oh of course Boulder and Proteus are archenemies, of course This was full of great ideas and I wouldn't even know where to start, so I'm gonna praise my favourite part which is that thanks to Boulder actually killing someone on screen, the second attempt feels much more suspenseful because the threat feels much more real, the music was amazing too Knowing how much smaller details tend to end up being important later on, I can't wait to see Duncan's cracked cab becoming the key to saving everyone

[@Ryan_Rocketz]

I was really nervous about killing a character, even though it ended up being reversed, so it’s a relief to hear it was a good decision! And you might be on to something with Duncan’s cab… Thank you for the compliments!

[@Kukaak]

@@Ryan_Rocketz Oh my god I was joking about the cab

[@Ryan_Rocketz]

Oh! Well uh, so I was I... totally

[@Kukaak]

@@Ryan_Rocketz I'm gonna take a guess and say Boulder will use it to track them down

[@Ryan_Rocketz]

We will see!

And this is why we never saw fredie, mighty mac, and bertrum again

They were revived.

"let him cook" 💀 Ryan is slowly inserting brainrot terms into trackmaster shorts Still great work ryan :)

[@benaseervatham8092]

I loved Duncan in this

[@Ryan_Rocketz]

Awesome! I had a lot of fun voicing him

[@anthonymarshall6868]

My version of the post credit scene: Sir Handel: *DUNCAN I'M GONNA KILL YOU!* Duncan: What's wrong? Sir Handel: Get the rocks out of my funnel! Duncan: It's just a prank. Peter Sam: Duncan, get the rocks out of his funnel. Smudger: Yeah, come on, man, I hope we can get out of here. Duncan: Okay, lemme just post the livestream online when we have better internet. Sir Handel: And I'm gonna hurt you if you keep messing with me! Bertram: Silence! I'm trying to take a nap.

[@TheWhiffster]

I wonder who’s going to find the lamp next

[@Ryan_Rocketz]

Good question! 👀

[@Dylan98473]

Am starting to think, that after they saved Thumper, they will go down to the Mid Sodor Quickly, and Use thumper to Crush The Rocks Infront of the Mine, or Tunnel Sir Handel,Victor and Kevin and Elizabeth And Smudger. And then they take them back, and Soon They'll try to find Peter sam! And may i use the Soundtrack? If not, its Okay.

[@Ryan_Rocketz]

That’s a great theory! And yes you can use the soundtrack, as long as you credit me!

[@Dylan98473]

@Ryan_Rocketz Thank you!

[@thomasandharry5199]

What on earth happened between proteus and boulder???

We will find out someday soon!

What happened to Skarloey?

I believe he's at Bertram's mine

[@Ryan_Rocketz]

That’s right! He’s just chilling at Bertram’s Mine. All of the narrow gauge engines take turns working there throughout the year
