Duncan and the Works Train

[CookieMonster4Sael]

Hahah I love the read on the last line. This whole thing was exception I don't know how I missed it. Brilliantly done!

[OwenDWF]

Who narrates this? The voice sounds familiar....

[TheKipperRunsAgain]

@OwenDWF I narrated this. I've done stuff for other YouTubers (Jivio and Railraider1) and have also lent my voice to several SiF productions over the years.

[Zaphodraptor]

This one's amazing!!! Could you please try book 42 in the RWS?

[7Lightening]

There's just one thing that confused me. Duncan says to himself 'We need another diesel" - what happened to Fred?

[TheKipperRunsAgain]

@7Lightening Fred didn't arrive until 1989. This little incident took place some time between 1982 and 1984, whilst Sir Handel was away visiting the Talyllyn. The original story had his lines delivered by an ERS character, Edwin Richard, but as he hasn't been modelled for Trainz yet, Sir Handel remains in this version.

[13thomasfan]

@TheKipperRunsAgain Then why was Murdoch there at 0:29?

[TheKipperRunsAgain]

@13thomasfan Even more glaringly, if this were completely faithful to the RWS, the Narrow Gauge engines would have different paintjobs (mostly red). To be honest, I tend to think of this adaptation as a mix of the RWS, ERS and TV Series universes.

[CraneProductions27]

That was brilliant, a great adaptation story and I loved the joke you made at the end about 'Duncan getting his own branch line'.

Who were the 2 black engines at 3:52 & 4:08?

[demarm1]

0:15 titanic

[TehGallopingSausage]

Fantastic story! The ERS is quite true to the originals, I must say. :-)

[GeebMachine]

Great work! :) Will you be anymore soon?

[TheKipperRunsAgain]

@GeebMachine Will hopefully be doing at least one more Trainz video this year. Nothing definate planned or written yet though.

[TrainzMovieTheatre]

Excellently made, as usual :D

[BramGroatFilms]

Well done!

Are there any videos that show what the tracks between Crovan's Gate station and the narrow gauge sheds are like?

[ThomasPercy99]

This Story is an excellent piece of work, Well done :)

[ShunterProductions]

i really the ERS will you be doing more trainz adaptions of these stories

[RobertHew]

another spectacular job, well done

[thomastug]

at 1:18 y is boco backwards

[ShuntingTank043]

@thomastug In the Railway series, diesels have faces at both ends, and that is what he was tinkering with.

[Damocles178]

@ShuntingTank043 Well actually I think he's just simply having Boco travel backwards for the purposes of realism; after all in real life Diesels with two cabs don't need to turn round so Boco wouldn't either since the driver just simply needs to get in his other cab and control him from there :)

[Damocles178]

@thomastug Well why not? He has two cabs which means he can travel backwards and forwards with ease. No point in two cabs if he has to be turned round all the time.

[crazyracer12]

Ooh, a Four Stacker ship cameo. I think it's Lusitania, though it's quite impossible. :D

[Nictrain123]

@crazyracer12 No it is Mauretania her almost identical sister ship.

[crazyracer12]

@Nictrain123 Ah okay, but Titanic is not Mauretania's sister ship, more like her rival.

[Nictrain123]

@crazyracer12 I didn't say that Titanic was the Mauretania's sister ship. I said the Lusitania was.

[crazyracer12]

@Nictrain123 Lusitania is Titanic's rival, if they're from different companies, Titanic from White Star, Lusitania from Cunard, it's two different companies, they're not sisters.

[Nictrain123]

@crazyracer12 I know. I didn't say they're sisters. I said the Lusitania was.

[penninefilms]

I have to say you are very good at narrating and doing the different voice for the engines.

[Lightninging63]

@ 5:33 Is it just me, or has Duncan become Rheneas? Just through the trees he looks rather red to me.

Story was witty and rather fun.. great work!

[Damocles178]

@Lightninging63 No that was Rheneas at 5:33 making a cameo :) TheKipperRunsAgain was basically showing the area before Autumn effected it; sorta like a bit of a flashback, to reflect how much it has changed. Then in present day at 5:44 Duncan comes up with the works train as you can see.

[Lightninging63]

@Damocles178 Ah. That did confuse me just a bit before.. thank you for explaining it. :)

[Damocles178]

@Lightninging63 No problem :)

[TheKipperRunsAgain]

@Damocles178 Spot on. I'm glad you could see what I was trying to do with that scene :)

That's generally what took up the most time when making this video. Redressing certain parts of the Skarloey Railway route to look more Autumn-like.

[Damocles178]

@TheKipperRunsAgain Yes it's always nice to have scenes that make the audience think about what's going on because sometimes there's more to a scene than meets the eye :)

[eoin730]

cool man top job

[SkarloeyRailway01]

Sir Handel's new series cross face is scary. Straight up scary.

Great work! :D

[DarthWill3]

Duncan getting his own BRANCH line? This story is SO full of wit!

Nice shape you've given for Duncan's damaged shape.

[mrcheeselover99]

well done man your really good at this

[whitehousefilms]

A great story, Chris. Really enjoyed it and also liked your choice of Music especially the bit at the beguining.

[BusterTheSteamroller]

Fantastic way to adapting one of wonderful stories from ERS. :)

[georgemiser]

Can i just say, that i love the irish accent you've given to Pater Sam. I don't know why, but it just seems so...well, fitting. :)

[ThomasPercy99]

I like what You did to Trevor's Orchard

[RailRaider1]

Another winning Trainz video here, chap - lots of lovely scenes and good to get the word out for the ERS too. Of course, it's never uncommon to see a difference between written word and the "televised" version whatever the book or series - though at least you're still faithful to your own text ;)

[TheUnluckyTug02]

That was spectacular! I really love all your works Chris. I must say, the SI3D Skarloey Railway is very accurate to the Season 4 line.

[SodorProductionsII]

Marvelous job as per usual, from what I heard, the ERS is quite impressive, and this shows it.

[TheTrainDude48]

Interesting job on this adaptation of an ERS story. Also nice cameo of another ERS character in the background. 9.5/10 Best of luck with the next project.

[BhanuHabbo]

Again, like everything you do, is a glimmering shine of Trainz in the dim world of those little kids who buy Trainz for Thomas >>

[MITCHELLtheC17]

that was fantastic, your plot i must say wow...i wish i had that type of story telling ability.

[BhanuHabbo]

@MITCHELLtheC17 Mikka your alive.

[Woodenfan]
