Thomas' Train

Thomas was grumbling to the other engines; he was tired of pulling coaches about and wanted to pull a passenger train himself. The big engines only laughed. They knew that "Thomas was a little engine with a long tongue". But one night, Henry was ill. The workmen worked hard through the night, but the big green engine didn't get better. Henry always pulls the first train, but with him out of commission, Thomas hopes that he will be able to pull it. At the station, everyone is waiting for Henry. At last the Fat Controller agrees that Thomas will have to pull the train. No one knows what happened next, but Thomas is not coupled to the coaches when he puffs off.

As Thomas puffs along, people wave and shout at him. Thomas assumes that it is because they have never seen him pull a passenger train before and he whistles back. Soon, Thomas comes to a signal set at "danger" and has to stop. The signalman walks over to Thomas and asks him what he's doing. Thomas tells the signalman he's pulling a train, but the signalman informs Thomas that he is not pulling anything. Thomas is so sad that he nearly cries. He quickly reverses back to the station to start again. At the station, the angry passengers are complaining, but when they see how sorry Thomas looks they soon forget to be cross. Thomas is now coupled to the train and this time he really does pull it.

But for a long time afterwards, the larger engines teased Thomas for his mistake.

how were you able to do the James faces onto Thomas? did you get rid of the CGI thomas face & put the alternate faces on him or did you just put the faces on top of the CGI Thomas face?

@skullzproductions Those faces were from our Lionel James, With a bit of blue tack they just sit over the bachmann thomas face to show the different expressions. Thanks for watching and keep following!

Really awesome man! Just work on camera placement and filming. Try to get the camera as close as possible to show the detail and make everything look bigger and real size. Also, when the camera needs to be put on another train to film, put a few layers of soft Styrofoam to reduce the shock. Really like this video though! Its awesome!

[CFRailway]

@coldandscared Yes, Thank you for your constructive criticism. Remakes are not our speciality, people have been requesting that we make another one so with the run up to christmas we quickly put this together when it was a cold 1 degree outside, hence the shack on the camera. We prefer to run and film our working Live steam engines as they are more realistic and interesting to film with. Thanks for watching and keep following! Be sure to check our some of our other videos.

@CFRailway pretty good but why is Henry a coal car?

[CFRailway]

@legomotion836 As bachmann only make Thomas Percy and James. With remakes, often other characters are mentioned. This is a tender off Europa, one of our live steam engines, its the only green tender we had with us on the day of filming. Budget production! Thanks for watching and keep following!

@CFRailway uhhhh how can we send a PM on the new channel layout?

[coldandscared]

Really awesome man! All you need to work on is the filming. What camera are you running? Also, work on your camera placement and steadiness. Everything else looks and sounds amazing!

@deltatrains As for the voice, Ringo Star, the true narrator from the real seasons of Thomas the Tank, non of this modern stuff! Thanks for watching and keep following!

@deltatrains We always have time to answer your questions!! Faces. No, the bachman models do not have changeable faces, these are from our old Lionel models and they stay on with just a little blue tac. When you buy these brand new they are Track powered. We have added a rechargeable battery pack to ours and fitted with 2.4G radio so we can lets the kids have a go at driving them. It also make life easier when filming! if you want more info on conversion to batteries send me a PM.
