@trainmasterben The only one who saw it? Well, doesn't that say something? Clearly you were the only one primed enough. It has to be something seen in some sort of visual obscurity plus the added effect of human psychology. Never seen a ghost myself, but then again I don't even see the man in the moon, and placebos don't work on me.
Man, this the episode that I remember the most, both loved and hated watching it. Scared the poop outta me, the production team did a great job with the atmospheric scenery.
This was the creepiest episode I ever saw as a kid but its also my favourite. The atmosphere and creepy music was very chilling as Big Mac is going past the empty buildings showing nothing but darkness in their empty windows. I've just noticed that when Big Mac sees the Ghost Tugs and that eerie singing starts, you can hear a heartbeat in the music and the heartbeat keeps going until Big Mac makes it back at the docks. Spooky eh?
man i was so afraid of watching this when i got it on VHS, i was like 5 or 6, and then i watched it like i don't know a year ago and could not believe how much a pussy i was when i was younger haha lol
I can safely say that this is the Episode That Scared Children; certainly freaked me out when I was a kid, especially as the King Neptune thing was never explained properly and just passed off as a moment of madness.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
well sorry to say it audiance but no more of TUGS...my series tugboats of hawaii is taking over i will be using music of TUGS models of TUGS and here is the cast:
This is one of my favorite TUGS Episodes. Infact I'm planing to make a Dalek44 Thomas Halloween Episode based on this story. for the memory of David Mitton.
I meant to give your comment a thumbs up but accidentally gave it a thumbs down, sorry about that. I agree Izzy is very funny- he's even funnier in the episode "Warrior". I can't believe he managed to get a tow off Zorran- and a free tow at that!
the wisper seems more like a thumping noise. :I

i know 2:11 scared the hell out of me first time round, and the explanation at the end didn't explain why they didn't have faces
what should have happened was after herc tells them a completely different tug comes and says he's one of the followers
but of course isnt white and everyone would panic
