Agree with most of your list. I don't know of you knew the news, but Mattel has announced that 'All engines go' / the reboot is not cannon and is a completely separate show to the main one. So there is still some hope of these characters returning if the main show restarts. Im all for it, especially if it's like a second Brenner era!!
That's good that it's going to be a separate series from the previous 24 seasons. But still, they should've made a season 25 that's in continuity with seasons 22-24.
After seeing your video, I may have a few ideas for Thomas stories on my Deviantart page. I’ll say 5 of them and tell me which ones I should go ahead with. 1. Rebecca and the Twins: When Rebecca meets up with Bill and Ben, she accidentally gets on the wrong foot with them and the twins make fun of her. After Boco sticks up for her and telling her how useful she is, she proves the twins after rescuing them from a broken bridge. 2. Not so fast Hank: Hank returns to Sodor and is given some jobs but doesn’t take on coal and water due to believing he takes more of it than other engines. 3. Molly and the Hill: Molly is used to light hills but is afraid of Gordon’s hill but has to overcome it when she’s asked to give Gordon a push. 4. Rebecca and Toby: Rebecca is asked to work with Toby after promising Thomas and Percy to help them out. Panicked by this she rushes her work with Toby causing her to get stuck on the main line. 5. Jeremy and the Hurricane: flights were being cancelled due to bad weather but Jeremy not wanting to let his passengers down takes them back to Sodor anyway.
I really agree with these characters that should’ve returned. I really wanted Lady, Molly, BoCo, Duke, Bertram, Hector, S.C. Ruffey, Old Slow Coach, Neville, Murdoch & some others to return.
And I think more characters from The Railway Series should be in CGI like Wilbert the forest engine, Jock, Frank, Pip & Emma, Bear, etc. just like Mike, Rex & Bert.
I have some ideas for Thomas stories for Jeremy to appear in. Here’s 5 examples and tell me which ones you think could be perfect for the original show. 1. Jeremy and the Treasure: Jeremy finds a map that would take him to buried treasure but Harold thinks it’s just a silly story. Will Jeremy find the treasure and prove to Harold that’s it’s real? 2. Jeremy gets the Blooey Blues: When Jeremy gets in trouble for causing an accident he gets very sad and ends up getting the blooey blues. Will Harold cheer him up? 3. No Snow for Jeremy: Jeremy wants to go play in the snow but Harold ordered him to stay in his hanger until the snow melts. Unfortunately Jeremy goes out in the snow anyway but ends up getting stuck after running out of jet fuel. Will Harold find Jeremy and save him from getting buried completely in the snow? 4. Jeremy and the Artist: Jeremy gets a visit from an artist who wants to paint something special of Sodor Airport so Jeremy tries very hard to find something special for the Artist to paint. 5. Jeremy and the Fruit Festival: Jeremy is sent to pick up fruit for a fruit festival and hopes to have a wonderful time. Little did he know Thomas, Percy, James, Gordon, Emily, Nia, Rebecca, Lady, Molly, Neville, Fergus, Dennis, Freddie, Billy, Harold and Tiger Moth are celebrating the fruit festival too. Will Jeremy run into his friends and will they all have a great time at the fruit festival?
A pretty good video I think all of them should return and probably all of them deserves more recognition than what they got oh yeah and about Stepney he did appear with a CGI face in season 12 in Rosie's Carnival special or Rosie's funfair special anyway pretty good video and thoughts on Rosie's Carnival special?
I wanted Neville to return the most as well as Fergus, Molly, Dennis, Murdoch, Arthur, Colin, Hank, Flora, Billy, Hector, Lady, Splatter, Dodge, Mighty Mac, Freddie, Duke, BoCo and Stepney.
I only have two characters in mind to come back. Murdoch, being that he could possibly outshine some of the engines in strength like Henry and Sam, as well as Arthur . Arthur could have a whole episode where he's hellbent on cleaning up his "spotless record", so much so that he ends up damaging it even more
Don't judge me but I'm giving All Engines Go! a chance but anyways: 10. I have to agree with you because she's a real classic character! Here's who I think should voice her: Andrea Libman (UK/USA) 9. Yep! I have to agree with you for sure because they need more development! 8. I'm definitely agreeing here! Because he's such a relatable character! 7. I really like him. He's really unforgettable and too good to last! So I agree with you! 6. She deserves to return for sure! She's so funny and another character I can relate to! 5. I, ABSOLUTELY, HAVE, TO AGREE! Because I don't know why Mattel made him in recent merchandise. 4. Same as Bulstrode. Because he has a load of potential. 3. Of course! BoCo's such an important character and deserves to return! 2. Mhm! I'll agree with you of course! He's a real emblem of my Country! 1. I knew Duke was coming! He's like the narrow gauge equivalent of Gordon! Yep yep yep! Now for the top 10 characters I think should return in full CGI: 10. Billy 9. Splatter & Dodge 8. Lady 7. City of Truro 6. Bertram 5. Hank 4. Molly 3. S.C Ruffey 2. Jeremy 1. Bulstrode And this is my own personal preference! And for a future top 10 video, I think it should be a top 10 tender engine characters!
I’m surprised S.C.Ruffey didn’t return, they could’ve easily re-skinned one of the 7 plank wagons, gave it a new face and added the markings on the sides.
@@quigpig455 Bruh what Stepney may be old but it's still running for the Bluebell Railway also why would someone make a beloved character die like that it's official that Stepney just returned to the Bluebell after his visit from sodor
There’s a lot of old Thomas & Friends characters that I want to see return in full CGI such as Molly, Hank, Neville, Murdoch, Smudger, Stepney, Duke, Caroline, and more. But thanks to the stupid reboot, we ain’t getting none of that.
Ok here are my thoughts on about the characters you mentioned on this list: 10. Mrs Kyndley could have had potential in the CGI era. 9. Hank, Flora, and Colin: Well Duh 8. Hector: Agreed 7. Jeremy: I would agree with you on that 6. Madge: Agreed 5. Bulstrode: Hmmm I'm not to sure 4. Scruffy: Hmm I'm not to sure and HELLO Scruffy also appeared in Season 5's Put Upon Percy. 3. Boco: The most obvious one in the room. 2. Stepney: Another obvious one, however I would like to see him in his Railway Series personality instead of his tv show personality since the Models Era and CGI era are completely different timelines. 1. Duke: Oh of freaking course why am I not surprised about this. Honorable mentions: Refreshment Lady: I can see her make a return after all she had two episodes where she was the main character in Seasons 4 & 7 alongside Peter Sam. Bertram: I don't know about him Tiger Moth: Could be possible Spiteful Brake Van: Just like what you said he was already dead plus he doesn't exist in the CGI canon. City of Truro: Nope not a chance and like what you said he doesn't even have a face Molly, Neville and Dennis: Agreed. Fun Fact: Dennis was so supposed to come back in Day of the Diesels unfortunately he was cut out from the movie and was replaced by Norman.
@@DavidBContentExtravaganza3967 Yeah Fair enough even if The Spiteful Brake Van wasn't mentioned or if the Models Era or CGI era are in the same show with the same continuity or even different continuities we can still make our continuities of the show no matter what rather if the Models or CGI era are in the same show, or in the same show but a different continuity.
@Joshua W56 Yes that to thank you very much. I was also gonna put that fact in but I decided not to for some reason since not only Splatter and Dodge were suppose to comeback in Day of the Diesels but they were also suppose to come back in The Great Race as well, but just like before they were completely cut out.
Given they wanted female characters, I'm surprised they didn't have Caroline, Molly, Isabella, Elizabeth Madge, Lady, Flora return in CGI and Mrs Kindley could have been one of Dowagers friends easily
If you think John Goodman could fit the role of Hank for voicing, Hank has a Southern accent. I thought John Goodman can't speak that accent. He's known for Sulley in the Monsters Inc. franchise.
Well John Goodman did use a southern accent for that one fat guy from Bee Movie as well as Big Daddy from the Princess & the Frog. So therefore, I think John Goodman would be perfect for the character, Hank.
Duke was originally meant to be in the fifteenth series episode, Kevin the Steamie along with Peter Sam and Sir Handel as seen in the storyboards, but never made it in the final episode. Duke was one of the characters that was originally going return in the CGI series but was dropped. This would of marked his first appearance in the CGI series. The others being Billy, Dennis, Splatter, Dodge, Derek, Colin and George. According to Michael White, he had originally written for George to return in the Series 23 episode, Free the Roads. His role was later replaced by Max and Monty. This would have marked his first appearance in the CGI series. Pity that Mattel has to keep dropping characters every time instead of letting the writers try harder to return old faces. Honestly, people.
Freddie was originally intended to return in full CGI in either Blue Mountain Mystery or the sixteenth series and was to be voiced by Bob Golding. However, most likely due to his basis going through an overhaul at the time, this did not happen.
Mattel is just like Hasbro back then because Mattel just want to make money and annoy many people by not listening. It would not be a surprise if many fans of Thomas and Friends will write and send multiple angry letters to Mattel to bring back many characters from the model era. Just like many children who wrote and sent angry letters about killing off Optimus Prime to Hasbro which made them realized the error of their ways.
I think Caroline should've returned in one CGI episode. Maybe they could redesign her so that her eyes are on her grille face instead of on her headlights (to be more consistent with the non-rail vehicles in the CGI series).
That is a great list, Trevor. Mattel should not be concerned about too many males and allow Andrew Brenner to bring back more characters to CGI, male and female alike.
I think that was only during the BWBA era only. But since season 25 will be continuing with cgi and not the 2d animated reboot which will be now a separate show, who knows?
In a way, Molly returned via Rebecca, but even still, it would be great if Molly returned. Same with Neville, Dennis, and heck, even Billy (because he had potential to be better).
1. I agree about Hank returning, though I honestly would've liked him better in his original basis's shape and livery (PRR K4). 2. Hector was my top favorite Truck character and deserved more than what he got. 3. I would've liked the idea of Bulstrode being given another chance like Bulgy was. 4. Scruffy would've made a great character for a story arc where he redeems himself and earns the engine's trust again. 5. Boco was no doubt one of the top favorite diesel characters who deserved a more permanent slot in the show's cast. 6. Stepney was a favorite member of Sir Topham's railway, and I think it was ridiculous for the show to get rid of a whole branch line (The Bluebell Line).
Nice job with all your ranking here are the Thomas characters that should've returned 10 Bertram and smudger 9. Buslstrode 8. The lorrids 7. Neville 6. Scruffy 5. Hank 4. Coiln 3. Molly 2.Boco 1. Lady, Splatter and Dodge And have a great day Trevor Davis!
Also(sorry if im commenting too much), for the spiteful brakevan, i think he should back in an episode where douglas taking toad to the steamworks and the little western needing a spare brakevan.
Like I said to u before, every character from the railway series, the model series, and the cgi series will appear in my universe. I also imagine that every character gets one spotlight episode per season.
When Mattel wanted more females in Thomas do you think Lady, Molly, Flora, Elizabeth, Old Slow Coach, Madge, Isobella and Caroline could’ve gotten the chance to return?
If Dennis returns in CGI, a episode would have been made that features him and Daisy since she used to be lazy like him and could teach him a thing or two. What do you think?
If i was able to write in some of these characters in the cgi, here are some of my ideas Tram trouble rewrite - after opening the great waterton line, Flora comes to sodor to run the line with stanley, this makes toby jealous because she's younger and faster, and when they come to the parade, Toby refuses to help, so flora tries doing all the work but breaks down (it's kinda similar to mavis, but instead flora then tells toby off for being lazy). Hank - Hank has to take a large load of steel across from the mainland to Knapford as a ship is being built, he unfortunately overworks and blocks Gordon's hill, right with gordon behind him. Stepney - stepney has to take a special passenger to the beach at harwick, but Donald and douglas' arguing at callan means he gets sent up the wrong track and ends up derailing into the callan castle moat. Molly - when she asks her to take passengers to brendham, she worries that her passengers wouldn't enjoy the experience, and when she doesn't see the workmen outside the animal park, she hits a brakevan. I know they are not good, but i do have more, just no time right now.
I want Lady to comeback in CGI. It would’ve been spectacular if Lady come back after Calling All Engines. However she would be used different than from Magic Railroad Lady. 1. Give her a real name (I’ll planning to call her Luna) 2. Like Maui from Moana, she has magical powers because of her golden lamps.
Colin probably did not return because like Cranky he is stuck at one place, but Cranky is at Brendam Docks which was a place that appeared a lot in CGI. I dont think that harbor were Colin is ever made CGI
Believe it or not, their was an unlucky thirteenth engine that was never in the model series, this engine was to help out with Donald in Douglas, this character I want to see in the tv series
I'm upset that none of the diesels were based off GM, GE, or EMD models. Those three brands are owned by the same GM that makes my favorite road vehicles too. I want to see a GM diesel locomotive in Thomas
@@TrevortheTrainFan Alco is a good brand, but I own a Chevy truck and I love almost everything made by GM, including trains. GM makes way more than road vehicles
I think that they could’ve brought back MightyMac in Journey beyond Sodor. He could have been a experimental engine along with Lexi and Theo. Since they are narrow gauge he could have been stuck on a flatbed pulled around by Lexi. So my fan story is that before Luke and Victor arrived on Sodor the Thin Controller could have ordered MightyMac for the Scarloey Railway but MightyMac were lost in shipping. And they were accidentally brought to the mainland instead and put in the experimental yard. Since they didn’t know were they were going they stayed there. Since the Thin Controller was missing an engine he ordered Luke and Victor instead. Do you think this could’ve worked?
@@isaiahrodriguez896 Oh absolutely because 1) Fergus' model had technical problems, which explains why he only appeared in Season 7. 2) Murdoch last appeared in Season 12 with a Scottish accent. 3) As for Arthur, imagine him meeting Merlin the Invisible for the first time!
@@isaiahrodriguez896 Molly, Neville, Dennis, Mighty Mac & Freddie I can agree you with; but for Billy, he doesn't deserve to return, not after what he did to Thomas last time!
My list for returning characters: 1. Duke 2. Boco 3. Stephney 4. Hank/Flora/Colin 5. Freddy 6. Hector 7. Murdoch 8. Madge I will say that I wish Culdee from the railway series made an appearance, it'd be cool to see him talk about his stories and especially the fact each of them had two faces xD
Do you think Mattel should’ve brought back all characters from the model series instead of introducing new characters or besides introducing new characters?
What if there was an episode where there’s some explorers which have stumbled across some old narrow gauge tracks which were covered by grass and they decide to go tell the thin controller. Then the thin controller remembers the old railway and has a short 2-5 second flashback of duke and the others chuffing on the old railway. Then he goes and gets the pack members and they go to rediscover the lost narrow gauge railway. When they’re there one of the pack members spots a little chunk of concrete and decides to dig into the hillside. As he/she does so they hit something so they decide to on over it. When they are digging to get to this Mysterious object the vines and dirt falls off the open front of the building which reveals Smudger who was covered in dust and needed major repairs. Smudger had been waken up after he heard a loud BANG. When he saw the thin controller standing there he started to smile and the thin controller smiled back as they had remembered eachother. They decide to retrieve Duke because he was the only narrow gauge engine available to help because the other narrow gauged engines were working hard at the quarry. They tell Duke that they had found the old railway and needs a strong narrow gauge engine to help retrieve him. When they get there Duke cried in happiness after seeing one of his old friends. The crew had gotten Thomas or one of the other engines to bring flatbeds with spare narrow gauge parts. The workers had carefully disassembled the generator and had the pack lift him up so they can put him on a flatbed. They manage to get the narrow gauge frame and wheels on him so he can fit on tracks but the pack wasn’t strong enough to put him on a flatbed so they carefully put him on tracks. Duke had to work very hard to pull smudger over to a part of the narrow gauge tracks that were fairly close to some nearby standard gauge tracks. Another engine had brought rocky over and rocky reached out as far as he could and he had his hook attached to some chains around smudger and carefully lifted smudger up and loaded him up onto a flatbed. Then rocky had been taken away and another engine came to pull smudger back to the steam works. Victor was shocked when he heard the story and he quickly got him into operational condition. Victor was put back onto a flatbed and mavis came and pulled him to the quarry. Mavis stopped along the way so that she can also bring a flatbed with Duke on it. Mavis has brought both smudger and duke to the quarry. The quarry engines had seen the old engines and they were amazed by the sight of the two old engines. Luke had tried to teach them what to do but Duke and Smudger both responded with, “We don’t need to be taught We may be old but We both sure do know a thing or two.” Duke had said, “That’s true about me but smudger still has a few things to learn about staying on tracks.” That night Duke and smudger told many stories about their time on the old narrow gauge railroad. From that day on Duke had worked at the quarry. And smudger got taught a couple of lessons about staying on the rails. They both still work at the quarry.
Think about it, if all those characters returned to CGI we would have too many boy engines, So the developers decided who returned and who didn’t. But still I would have loved to see some of the old characters return to CGI. Like I wish they planned to bring back Murdoch, cause he’s my favorite.
😏 hm!!!! Fantastic man. But i really do think but i'm just putting it out there. I think what hit entertainment should do is take every thomas and friends video the ones they made with the models and turn them into CGI. What do you think?

@Joshua W56 Yes that to thank you very much. I was also gonna put that fact in but I decided not to for some reason since not only Splatter and Dodge were suppose to comeback in Day of the Diesels but they were also suppose to come back in The Great Race as well, but just like before they were completely cut out.
@@victorgaminglounge3967 Regardless of difference, same continuity with both model and CGI. No offense.
@@DavidBContentExtravaganza3967 None Taken
I 10000000% want Boco to come back in CGI I think he should have the same voice as James (in season 17 US)
Given they wanted female characters, I'm surprised they didn't have Caroline, Molly, Isabella, Elizabeth Madge, Lady, Flora return in CGI and Mrs Kindley could have been one of Dowagers friends easily
I can totally relate to hector cuz when I was 4 I was scared to take my socks off 😂
@Joshua W56 I thought it would hurt 😂
The sad part about this is that we'll never see these Characters return.
Just remember, all engines go is now a separate series
@@BlueFoxB12Productions Still,We'll never see these Characters return.
True, Because mattel just care about the money and merchandising
Hopefully, no matter what style it's in, we'll see more of cgi thomas.
@@BlueFoxB12Productions I don't even know if that's going to happen now,The CGI Era will never Return.
5:05 places in thomas that should've returned in cgi
I wish they never removed Stepney I like him even though I have issues with the episode Thomas and Stepney.
If you think John Goodman could fit the role of Hank for voicing, Hank has a Southern accent. I thought John Goodman can't speak that accent. He's known for Sulley in the Monsters Inc. franchise.
Well John Goodman did use a southern accent for that one fat guy from Bee Movie as well as Big Daddy from the Princess & the Frog. So therefore, I think John Goodman would be perfect for the character, Hank.
Duke was originally meant to be in the fifteenth series episode, Kevin the Steamie along with Peter Sam and Sir Handel as seen in the storyboards, but never made it in the final episode.
Duke was one of the characters that was originally going return in the CGI series but was dropped. This would of marked his first appearance in the CGI series. The others being Billy, Dennis, Splatter, Dodge, Derek, Colin and George.
According to Michael White, he had originally written for George to return in the Series 23 episode, Free the Roads. His role was later replaced by Max and Monty. This would have marked his first appearance in the CGI series.
Pity that Mattel has to keep dropping characters every time instead of letting the writers try harder to return old faces. Honestly, people.
I agree that Harold and Jeremy should have a air race someday.
Splatter And Dodge Would've Return As Well After Diesel 10 Fired Them After They Abandoned Him Before The Chase In Thomas And The Magic Railroad
Fun fact: Duke was going to return in full CGI in Kevin the Steamie but he got replace by Emily and Duke got scrapped
Flora was supposedly a love interest of Toby?!
Sorry chief, but I don't recall ever hearing that outside of fanfic.
Other than that, fantastic video!
Thank you!
Freddie was originally intended to return in full CGI in either Blue Mountain Mystery or the sixteenth series and was to be voiced by Bob Golding. However, most likely due to his basis going through an overhaul at the time, this did not happen.
If it did happen Jeremy would’ve been the only season 10 character to not appear in CGI.
@@jackwilliams8018 Unless they consider bringing him back in CGI as well but you may be right about that.
Mattel is just like Hasbro back then because Mattel just want to make money and annoy many people by not listening. It would not be a surprise if many fans of Thomas and Friends will write and send multiple angry letters to Mattel to bring back many characters from the model era. Just like many children who wrote and sent angry letters about killing off Optimus Prime to Hasbro which made them realized the error of their ways.
I hope Jeremy returns. He hasn’t been seen since Season 12.😢
He also needs to have a speaking role again.
6:41 in the season 5 episode happy ever after he appears as a background character without anyone seeing him
If Harold and Jeremy have a air race someday I wonder who will win.
Cool
All these characters that are not in the CGI Series probably left Sodor after their last appearances in the model series.
How about Peter New voices Hank because he gave Bic McIntosh from My Little Pony a southern accent and a deep voice.
That might work too!
can you do a top 10 best songs in T&F.
@@lennymarroquin I'll see what I can do. But I'll have to find a way to make it without getting copyright claimed.
Just talk about them don't play them.
I think Caroline should've returned in one CGI episode. Maybe they could redesign her so that her eyes are on her grille face instead of on her headlights (to be more consistent with the non-rail vehicles in the CGI series).
Agreed! Same for Jeremy!
Another fact about Bolstrode is that he’s a rode at Thomas Land at Edaville
Neville the new engine is also apart of my childhood in Thomas and friends
If I ever obtain the rights to Thomas I’m bringing Jeremy back along with Lady, Molly, Freddie, Neville, Dennis, Fergus and Billy.

If hasbro fix thomas one day maybe they can bring all of them back
If Hank was to appear again, It will be in the United States where he was built.
That is a great list, Trevor. Mattel should not be concerned about too many males and allow Andrew Brenner to bring back more characters to CGI, male and female alike.
I think that was only during the BWBA era only. But since season 25 will be continuing with cgi and not the 2d animated reboot which will be now a separate show, who knows?
@@ronanvave560 If the old show resumes.
@@DavidBContentExtravaganza3967 I sure hope so.
@@ronanvave560 BoCo and Hank are gonna return in Season 22 but Mattel make them dropped in favor of BWBA era.
In a way, Molly returned via Rebecca, but even still, it would be great if Molly returned. Same with Neville, Dennis, and heck, even Billy (because he had potential to be better).
I would like to hear his opinions on why Splatter, Dodge, Smudger and Lady were not added back.
1. I agree about Hank returning, though I honestly would've liked him better in his original basis's shape and livery (PRR K4).
2. Hector was my top favorite Truck character and deserved more than what he got.
3. I would've liked the idea of Bulstrode being given another chance like Bulgy was.
4. Scruffy would've made a great character for a story arc where he redeems himself and earns the engine's trust again.
5. Boco was no doubt one of the top favorite diesel characters who deserved a more permanent slot in the show's cast.
6. Stepney was a favorite member of Sir Topham's railway, and I think it was ridiculous for the show to get rid of a whole branch line (The Bluebell Line).
Also, i imagine duke running a special passenger service from crovan's gate to ulfstead castle.
5:59 that’s why I made up the ep don’t be late and she was left in shed as punishment
But luckily she was unpunished cause being late wasn’t her fault
Nice job with all your ranking here are the Thomas characters that should've returned
10 Bertram and smudger
9. Buslstrode
8. The lorrids
7. Neville
6. Scruffy
5. Hank
4. Coiln
3. Molly
2.Boco
1. Lady, Splatter and Dodge
And have a great day Trevor Davis!
Thanks. And great list!
I agree
Madge does look like a cool looking road vehicle
Great list
Thank you!
@@TrevortheTrainFan np
Also(sorry if im commenting too much), for the spiteful brakevan, i think he should back in an episode where douglas taking toad to the steamworks and the little western needing a spare brakevan.
4:58 I think Jeremy’s design is stupid because he hasn’t got a nose also how will his driver see if his eyes are on his front windows but IRYO
It’s Jeremy’s responsibility to see and he’s not stupid he’s cute
I kind of wish that Smudger returned maybe he is found gets turned back in to a train and Sir Topham Hatt gives him another chance!
I have never heard anyone ask for Mrs. kyndly to come back. I feel that Class 40 should’ve come back
Like I said to u before, every character from the railway series, the model series, and the cgi series will appear in my universe. I also imagine that every character gets one spotlight episode per season.
I wish we could have got Arthur in CGI I like Arthur a lot😢
Do you think these characters separated from Thomas after the last time we saw them?
When Mattel wanted more females in Thomas do you think Lady, Molly, Flora, Elizabeth, Old Slow Coach, Madge, Isobella and Caroline could’ve gotten the chance to return?
I guess so.
If Dennis returns in CGI, a episode would have been made that features him and Daisy since she used to be lazy like him and could teach him a thing or two. What do you think?
Interesting!
@@TrevortheTrainFan Thanks. Glad you like it. It fits.
Also, for bulstrode, i imagine him having a grudge againest percy for nearly sinking him like the titanic.
I really miss Jeremy. He was a cute jet plane.😢😢
If i was able to write in some of these characters in the cgi, here are some of my ideas
Tram trouble rewrite - after opening the great waterton line, Flora comes to sodor to run the line with stanley, this makes toby jealous because she's younger and faster, and when they come to the parade, Toby refuses to help, so flora tries doing all the work but breaks down (it's kinda similar to mavis, but instead flora then tells toby off for being lazy).
Hank - Hank has to take a large load of steel across from the mainland to Knapford as a ship is being built, he unfortunately overworks and blocks Gordon's hill, right with gordon behind him.
Stepney - stepney has to take a special passenger to the beach at harwick, but Donald and douglas' arguing at callan means he gets sent up the wrong track and ends up derailing into the callan castle moat.
Molly - when she asks her to take passengers to brendham, she worries that her passengers wouldn't enjoy the experience, and when she doesn't see the workmen outside the animal park, she hits a brakevan.
I know they are not good, but i do have more, just no time right now.
Uh there diesel you didn’t mention and that being. Derek
Plus I think Derek should come back same for D261
Also, about bulstrode, he is due to be in the all engines go episode Thomas's day off
I want Lady to comeback in CGI. It would’ve been spectacular if Lady come back after Calling All Engines.
However she would be used different than from Magic Railroad Lady.
1. Give her a real name (I’ll planning to call her Luna)
2. Like Maui from Moana, she has magical powers because of her golden lamps.
Britt Allcroft Reprise his Role, Diesel 10 Reappear
Colin probably did not return because like Cranky he is stuck at one place, but Cranky is at Brendam Docks which was a place that appeared a lot in CGI. I dont think that harbor were Colin is ever made CGI
I agree with Boco, Stepney, Jeremy, Madge, Hector and Hank and my others are Murdoch, George, Arthur, Byron, Ned, Fearless Freddie, and Elizabeth
Believe it or not, their was an unlucky thirteenth engine that was never in the model series, this engine was to help out with Donald in Douglas, this character I want to see in the tv series
I'm upset that none of the diesels were based off GM, GE, or EMD models. Those three brands are owned by the same GM that makes my favorite road vehicles too. I want to see a GM diesel locomotive in Thomas
Personally, I'd also would like to see some Alco diesels in the Thomas universe as well!
@@TrevortheTrainFan Alco is a good brand, but I own a Chevy truck and I love almost everything made by GM, including trains. GM makes way more than road vehicles
I think that they could’ve brought back MightyMac in Journey beyond Sodor. He could have been a experimental engine along with Lexi and Theo. Since they are narrow gauge he could have been stuck on a flatbed pulled around by Lexi. So my fan story is that before Luke and Victor arrived on Sodor the Thin Controller could have ordered MightyMac for the Scarloey Railway but MightyMac were lost in shipping. And they were accidentally brought to the mainland instead and put in the experimental yard. Since they didn’t know were they were going they stayed there. Since the Thin Controller was missing an engine he ordered Luke and Victor instead. Do you think this could’ve worked?
I don’t know about that.
Well Trove davis you did an amazing job it is ok i can ask or tell you something and ask questions?
Sure. Btw it's Trevor, not Trove.
@@TrevortheTrainFan Sorry anyways do you want arthur, murdoch and fregus to come back in cgi?
@@isaiahrodriguez896 Oh absolutely because
1) Fergus' model had technical problems, which explains why he only appeared in Season 7.
2) Murdoch last appeared in Season 12 with a Scottish accent.
3) As for Arthur, imagine him meeting Merlin the Invisible for the first time!
@@TrevortheTrainFan Ok I wish they could bring them back what about molly, neville, dennis, mighty mac, freddie, and billy from the hit era?
@@isaiahrodriguez896 Molly, Neville, Dennis, Mighty Mac & Freddie I can agree you with; but for Billy, he doesn't deserve to return, not after what he did to Thomas last time!
12:31 right and thank you
Great video
My list for returning characters:
1. Duke
2. Boco
3. Stephney
4. Hank/Flora/Colin
5. Freddy
6. Hector
7. Murdoch
8. Madge
I will say that I wish Culdee from the railway series made an appearance, it'd be cool to see him talk about his stories and especially the fact each of them had two faces xD
Do you think Mattel should’ve brought back all characters from the model series instead of introducing new characters or besides introducing new characters?
Well, I think they all deserve voice actors. That’s why I want most of them back.
If these characters appear in All Engines Go I don’t know if it will be a good thing.
What’s wrong with more faceless engines in the tv series?
Because otherwise, children won't tell whether they are characters or not.
I do agree with your list Trevor.
Thank you!
@@TrevortheTrainFan You're welcome.
If Thomas had a voice actor then I would say it would be Tom Kenny until the 2000s where he would be voiced by weird Al as Tom Kenny would voice Henry
Bulstrode could appear in the reboot
Honorable Mention: Molly.
What if there was an episode where there’s some explorers which have stumbled across some old narrow gauge tracks which were covered by grass and they decide to go tell the thin controller. Then the thin controller remembers the old railway and has a short 2-5 second flashback of duke and the others chuffing on the old railway. Then he goes and gets the pack members and they go to rediscover the lost narrow gauge railway. When they’re there one of the pack members spots a little chunk of concrete and decides to dig into the hillside. As he/she does so they hit something so they decide to on over it. When they are digging to get to this Mysterious object the vines and dirt falls off the open front of the building which reveals Smudger who was covered in dust and needed major repairs. Smudger had been waken up after he heard a loud BANG. When he saw the thin controller standing there he started to smile and the thin controller smiled back as they had remembered eachother. They decide to retrieve Duke because he was the only narrow gauge engine available to help because the other narrow gauged engines were working hard at the quarry. They tell Duke that they had found the old railway and needs a strong narrow gauge engine to help retrieve him. When they get there Duke cried in happiness after seeing one of his old friends. The crew had gotten Thomas or one of the other engines to bring flatbeds with spare narrow gauge parts. The workers had carefully disassembled the generator and had the pack lift him up so they can put him on a flatbed. They manage to get the narrow gauge frame and wheels on him so he can fit on tracks but the pack wasn’t strong enough to put him on a flatbed so they carefully put him on tracks. Duke had to work very hard to pull smudger over to a part of the narrow gauge tracks that were fairly close to some nearby standard gauge tracks. Another engine had brought rocky over and rocky reached out as far as he could and he had his hook attached to some chains around smudger and carefully lifted smudger up and loaded him up onto a flatbed. Then rocky had been taken away and another engine came to pull smudger back to the steam works. Victor was shocked when he heard the story and he quickly got him into operational condition. Victor was put back onto a flatbed and mavis came and pulled him to the quarry. Mavis stopped along the way so that she can also bring a flatbed with Duke on it. Mavis has brought both smudger and duke to the quarry. The quarry engines had seen the old engines and they were amazed by the sight of the two old engines. Luke had tried to teach them what to do but Duke and Smudger both responded with, “We don’t need to be taught We may be old but We both sure do know a thing or two.” Duke had said, “That’s true about me but smudger still has a few things to learn about staying on tracks.” That night Duke and smudger told many stories about their time on the old narrow gauge railroad. From that day on Duke had worked at the quarry. And smudger got taught a couple of lessons about staying on the rails. They both still work at the quarry.
This took me around half an hour to type up.
If the CGI isn’t back that’s fine. This could be an AMAZING fan made episode
Kinda like Murdoch’s whistle
I thought Murdoch's whistle was a very entertaining fan episode. It made me wish it were official.
Do you think this would be a good script. I didn’t think of it before I just kept adding more and more until I got this story.
I also liked Murdoch’s whistle and Keep Off The Tracks.
Think about it, if all those characters returned to CGI we would have too many boy engines, So the developers decided who returned and who didn’t. But still I would have loved to see some of the old characters return to CGI. Like I wish they planned to bring back Murdoch, cause he’s my favorite.
As a man🧍♂️myself, I like to have a variety of females every now and then.
I want Lady back
Same
I want to see the big boy the real engine, flora, lady, and hank and duke and Freddie
😏 hm!!!! Fantastic man. But i really do think but i'm just putting it out there. I think what hit entertainment should do is take every thomas and friends video the ones they made with the models and turn them into CGI. What do you think?
Well, I think they should remake ALL of the original Awdry stories in full CGI because they have better writing than seasons 8-12.
