Wild Train Ride

Granny, Minga, and Prickle get on a train for a little ride, but the Blockheads lock up the engineers and cause trouble.

[@ZakWolf]

LOL at Minga comparing their train smashing through someone's house to a ride at Disneyland!

[@laudemgloriae3]

I wish I could get ready that fast in the morning!

[@gjtrue]

The Blockheads seem to get away without their due comeuppance in many of these 80's Gumby episodes... 🤬

[@ZakWolf]

Maybe because they were able to avert disaster, they just let the Blockheads go.

[@ezekielsnyder6420]

@@ZakWolf However, since Prickle did spot them, he probably called the police on them after the episode ended.

[@ZakWolf]

@@ezekielsnyder6420 That's very likely.

[@semectual]

Minga ignores her older brother Gumby yet, he and his friends rescue her and granny.

[@ezekielsnyder6420]

Because Gumby cares for her despite everything.

The title says it all.

Unless I'm mistaken the steam locomotive is a 2-6-2 mixed traffic engine used for pulling freight cars and coaches(like the two at the Toyland Station).

[@ZakWolf]

Yes, it does appear to be one for the most part. But for the long shots once the train enters the Rocky Mountains book, suddenly it's an 0-6-0! (For those shots, they used an HO-scale locomotive from TYCO.)

[@russellvawter5604]

Thank you for the info. I'll ponder it for awhile.

[@manfail7469]

[@russellvawter5604]

Yup

[@jonathanny28]

it's a shame that there aren't any more gumby adventures

[@russellvawter5604]

Indeed :(

[@Tsumami__]

youre darn tootin!

[@russellvawter5604]

You said it.

[@Mrtrainfreak12]

i did and the steamer didnt have that baloon stack or same wheel configuration and the passenger cars changed color and shape

[@russellvawter5604]

Yup. But hey, what can you do?

[@ZakWolf]

What's also neat is how the HO-scale locomotive and tender in those long shots was made by TYCO!
