@@TrainsFilmedByRussellBynum but the AEG voice doesnt fit in the CGI model, if they could they do a AEG model i believe for this, right? (I dont wanna sound so agressive, sorry if it does heheh)
@@darkieproductionsmusic It is much easier (cheaper) to reuse existing assets and substitute the voice. I believe the face has also been exchanged on these non-powered units to reflect the voice, but I could easily be mistaken.
Agreed; but then it might take away from Thomas, who is the main attraction. Plus, it is much easier to employ a diesel. While a heritage railroad on an isolated track, a diesel might still be considered more reliable source of motive power.
@@TrainsFilmedByRussellBynum I will gladly wait for the day where they get rid of that stupid voice Thomas has right now. Nobody likes All engines go, and if you do, you need Jesus.
I am glad Thomas still has his CGI face
Having seen some of the other Thomas faces around the world during my research, I must agree!
@@TrainsFilmedByRussellBynum I mean, the reboot looks awful, I don't why Mattel could just ruin my childhood

@@adventuresofamtrakcascades301 they changed the voice on the Thomas to pre recorded lines by the AEG voice actor, which was a big mistake
It’s ok to ruin my childhood
They've used AEG Thomas voice and new whistle?... ugh...
Nice vid btw :)
Yep. (Well, it is one massive marketing campaign after all. At least it also benefits heritage railroads.) And thank you.

I wish the museum would use NP 924 to assist Thomas.

@@trainlover123trainsrock The “joys” of marketing.
I know right? That AEG voice does NOT suit Thomas here at all
@@TrainsFilmedByRussellBynum thats exactly why we don't use 924 with Thomas
