It's sad there's no Little Giant as engine no. 8. It would be really cool honestly for having a huge narrow gauge engine bigger than duke (probably)

i like trains

Im never gonna get tired of watching this video

i have only just found this video but i think i actually went there

I did find a basis for Albert, Jim, and Tim: Dennis from the Snailbeach District Railway: pbs.twimg.com/media/FpTqLzRWAAAyoGo?format=jpg&name=medium

This is literally the best video on the internet

So the earl of sodor dies, and his 7 year old becomes earl?

🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉❤❤❤

And Surprisingly I made trackmaster models of Albert And Duke or The Duke

anyone else think jerry resembles smudger?

I think the only problem with John being a Bagnall saddle tank is that, from what I have seen, they always lacked running plates above the wheels which John appears to have. So in that case I think he more closely resembles an engine built by Peckett similar to Gamecock. The only problem then is the forward bunker however this could have been added on to the design due to the distance it would have to travel on the MSR.

Personally I think Gerry resembles Caledonia on the Isle of Man more than he resembles Doll.

Just realised Jim, Tim and Albert kind of resemble the Glyn Valley trams but with less plating.

Who made the Mid Sodor map in this video?

Question, did you take a puff of awdrys pipe if so can I I’d love to know all of the history

23:38 Can anyone provide a link to this interview?

This is gold. Definitely feels like something out of Wilbert’s world.

5:12

11:24 A mid sodor traction engine? Sounds good. 😊 @ExplosiveCookie

2:22

I presume other engines who came and went include Andreas and Bertram. In virginiacreeperailproduction's videos, the two mine engines are Alfred and Atlas. I presume both Smudger and Stanley got scrapped after the Mid Sodor Railway's demise. There were the Arlesdale Tramway engines too. Besides Tim, at least four other engines operated on the line.

Your use of the Zelda train game music is fantastic!

So, does this mean they replace Staley with Smudger? It seems obvious that they did, to me.

20:03 he still has blue btw, on his cylinder

14:07 cursed Stewart. Explains why Stanley is unlucky. It has been Stuart’s curse all along

RIP smudger He died of just not existing

18:18 Alfred is not to be confused with No.98462

Skak-lo'eh Reel'we-h

OK WHERE IS IT YOU CAN NO LONGER HIDE IT WHERE IS THE REVERENDS PIPE

Don’t forget about the engine named mid sodor

Let me tell you my opinion THERE IS NO LORE

TTTE has to have the deepest lore of ANY show I’ve ever seen

Fantastic video, really didn’t not realize how deep the lore goes!

I am not real

The impact Luke's efforts have had on me since I first saw the video has been profound creative-wise for me. Since it came about, I was motivated to expand on the information Awdry left to create a definitive locomotive roster for the Mid Sodor line. This has ended up evolving considerably into a complete story saga that expands on the railway, and forms part of my "Thomas & Friends: Old & New" project, which I submitted to Mattel in late Sept. 2023. To help base ideas going into what I aptly call 'The Mid Sodor Chronicles', I searched up 'Festipedia', the Ffestiniog Railway's wiki site, which lists recorded information of their engines, and their operation and maintenance histories. Together with creative license, I ascertained where I was going with the characters concerned beyond what we already know. Here is a fine draft of the profiles I devised. - No. 1 'The Duke' - Erected at Boston Lodge Works (Ffestiniog Railway) between 1877-79. Was proposed to be called 'George England' before the decision was made to honour the Norramby family, since His Grace had paid toward the construction under license; Duke respected this. Rebuilt into his present shape in 1893-94 at Boston Lodge after a solid decade of hard work wore down his first boiler. Overhauled with new inner firebox in 1921. Boiler declared life-expired a decade later, just as the Skarloey Railway had planned Duke's 100 Year Gala. A new welded boiler was manufactured at Crovan's Gate during his overhaul in 1981-82, bringing Duke back to full health once again. - No. 3 'Falcon' and No. 4 the 1st 'Faline' and the 2nd 'Stuart' - Twins Falcon and Faline were first delivered as a pair in 1881 to answer a need for suitable backup power, but their tendency to buck on the track due to not having trailing wheels put pressure on their morality. Faline had a runaway accident in January 1885 (similar to an actual incident in Ireland in 1943) which saw her gain an early rebuild, and a more generous respect for her peers, followed by Falcon. In 1904 Falcon returned to the builders for a replacement boiler and new frames; they were found to date from that time when he was under repair on the Skarloey Railway. He has since been rebuilt again with a new cab outline. Faline was sidelined in late 1919 in need of heavy boiler work, and Stuart was brought in as a spare assuming her number. As Sir Handel, Falcon was the first to receive a new welded boiler at Crovan's Gate Works, shortly after Duke's initial return to service. - Nos, 5-7 - I ret-conned No. 5 from being called Albert on the grounds that: 1 - Awdry's material states that there was a general pattern of naming engines on the Mid Sodor after their builders, and 2 - It's more inventive that the Mid Sodor as an independent railway accepted female engines. I came up with the concept that Alyssa was named for her builders Sharp Stewart & Co. at their Atlas Works. A fun-lover but sweet in nature, her unassuming charm was reflected in her two divisive brothers who followed. I devised their design origin story, calling them the 'Alba' Class after the rose of the same name. They were joined by a sister engine, No. 8 'Kim', a vulnerable but game sort. They were well-liked by their crews, but also worked continuousky. 'Kim' along with 'Alyssa' and 'Tim' were stored when the 1929 Stock Market Crash hit, and these were the engines listed as up for sale in 1936. Jim was a very last minute inclusion in the auctioning. - No. 2 "Stanley" - In addition to pushing out the rails, he was known to tip over more than once, caused by the arrangement that his water-feedi system and wide water tanks; an issue already common to his type when working on the trench railways on the Western Front. Apparently, according to certain witnesses, he also talked in a high-toned voice. His ultimate fate was inflicted by a crippled frame following a serious derailment. Regards, Samuel Farris.

Just wanting some clarity: Jennings was created for Mk2 layout? Therefore there wasn't any No. 7 locomotive for the Mk1 layout, but Atlas (regardless if he was a spare engine) was numbered No. 8 during Mk1?

14:33 I wonder if the buffers were added out of necessity just so there would be a place to wrap that wire for coupling

man dropped a banger and left-

Great Video! Could you assist me in the making of a video?

Any idea what colors Alfred and Atlas were?

I feel like the “engines came and went” was probably inspired by Awdry’s fluidity with the engines on the layout. That just sounds like an awdry thing to do

What chassis do Tim and Jim have and where can I get them?

17:36

Well presented, and very informative. Thank you.😁

Having just watch a video of Rail Stories, I think the closest design basis for Jim, Tim, and Albert (MkIII) are the Glyn Valley Tramway engines built by Beyer Peacock. Only difference being they were designed for funnel first travel and did not require the steam condensing equipment.

Question: where can I find the audiobooks you used for the video?
