- Dieselworks double review of the Thomas Wooden Railway 'Percy at the Dieselworks' and Take N Play 'The Dieselworks'.
Day of the Diesels has spawned a ton of new Thomas and Friends toys, and there's a mad dash to grab the playsets and rolling stock. Hopefully this review will help you decide which toy suites your collection. Do these playsets adhere to the plot of the film, or drift to a unknown part of Sodor?
It seems the wooden railway Diesel 10 has been given a major reworking and is now a very well adjusted diesel.

Prices of toys in Australia seems to be so much more than the USA, the Australian dollar has been strong versus the US currency for a long period of time now, yet this strength in the Australian currency is not passed through to the consumers. The basic rule to remember is if you ever come to Australia for a holiday never buy toys here.
I love how Percy said, “ that’s it’s, no one loves me.” So regularly like he lost the lottery for the 200th time
Literally me.
I feel bad for Percy
That intro tho. Percy: No one loves me. // Best part of it 👌
"There's a very clumsy and near useless version of Happy hook here. He's ready to do absolutely nothing because he is devoid of a magnet hook"
I laughed so hard at that line i don't know why.

I don’t think Take N Play uses magnet hooks.
The wooden set looks pretty good. Probably one of the best parts is the fact that they decided to base a set around a character other than Thomas. Over the years I've ended up with countless doubles of Thomas simply because of him being included in every set.
As for that cargo car - I do actually think it's better that they included something as basic as that. In my opinion, the amount of basic rolling stock for the wooden range is always hard to get, usually only included in larger sets.
"You know what happens when you're on TV as much as I am!"
Says the guy who literally hasn't appeared since that Christmas episode, which I have to mention, is the only episode he's been in.
"lets just say I use Botox just like your friend Thomas"
Hold on, *hes got a point-*
1:39 I saw Skarloey, Trevor and Donald’s tender lying down on the ground.
yes, but I have never worked out why, it's one of those mysteries of life your not meant to question
@martin0mac2000 i dare say the aspect linking the now missing characters could make a excellent video for discussion within the Thomas community
If it is a colour reason, I wonder if Henry and Percy were on the chopping boards as well..!
I'm pretty sure most would love to see a return of Duck at some point.
Now I don't regret keeping my original Diesel 10 and Splatter and Dodge characters!!!
@J50Tank8905 the earlier models were fairly heavy, even the earlier Thomas which was all metal before they changed the boiler area to plastic
the latest models are impressive in details and also how light they have become, the lack of weight really stops them from performing downhill stunts, but may be safer if you have kids who throw toys
a well thrown Thomas model can wreck a large flat screen TV if your unlucky
I remember owning the take n play diesel works when I was younger and i have good memories of it and putting diesel 10 on the set
Man I love honest reviews they really are the best way to help consumers and not just fluffy kids playing with toys
The Percy At the Dieselworks set, feels that it needs something a little more to it. Some more Diesels (Den & Dart in particular), rolling stock (some fuel & oil tankers would be nice), track, & a couple destinations (like the Diesel Fuel Depot) would be nice. Would be cool to see what you can do to make the set feel more lively.
RIP Skarleoy, Donald, and Trevor.
Percy's goofy old face has been replaced by CGI.. I'd say the change suits him better than on the Wooden Diesel 10.
I liked your review of the two separate Dieselworks. Always so detailed, and hitting the bad as well as the good, I quite enjoy it. To me, the TakeN'Play works better being the main shed and the turntable inside, despite all its embarrassing flaws. The Wooden Dieselworks has go too much going on, and would be better without the transfer-slidey-thing going on there.
It took me just now to realize that the characters at the beginning lying next to the Dieselworks who had not been on the show for a while at the time this video had come out (even though Skarloey would return in the next special and Trevor’s cameo in “Emily And Dash” doesn’t count since he only appeared for 2-3 seconds saying nothing at all) were supposedly scrapped by Diesel 10.
1:38 r.i.p donald skarloey and trevor
00:09 Percy = Forever Alone , LOL
0:11
I noticed that the old Diesel 10 has three windows in the back, but the new one only has two. So the new one is actually more accurate to Diesel 10's prototype, a BR Class 42 "Warship."
Most Classic D-10's were just recolors of D199 (ERTL and Wooden Railway respectively)

I agree, it is a very good show. I just wish Hasbro put as much detail and such into their ponies as Tomy does with Thomas.
I was in Toys R Us recently and I found myself being quite critical of the quality of the wooden train sets I saw there in light of your reviews. I agree, there is in many cases too much plastic in them (especially in the Chuggington sets). I really appreciate your reviews and how they inform me as a consumer... THANK YOU!!!
@martin0mac2000 about the missing breen characters I had a ling e-mail chat with a youtube on this subject, and the very common link between the missing classic characters is the fact most are GREEN.
I loved Duck mainly because he looked so different to the others and had a different personality, he was surely a fav with many of the early fans of the series.
When you see the effort Thomas creators go to making sure there are no cross over colour schemes it made me think of a connection.

Leokimvideo I like Thomas and friends wooden railway Percy at the dieselworks and I going to get Thomas and friends wooden railway Percy at the dieselworks set for Christmas
The reason Diesel 10 is smiling is because he was pretending to be friendly throughout much the movie. Smile=freindly
@Omeganui what the set needs is two sheds on the side loops (thomas's prison) so there is a tie in with what happens in the film day of the diesels, as it stands the whole set is abstract to what ever happened in the film
it will be interesting to hear just how many thomas wooden railway fans desire this set
it it came with Den and Dart or even Diesel it would be a killer set
@fraynster my little saying is when the Thomas toys get it right they are amazing, BUT when they get it wrong it can really be a eye opener!
Diesel 10: get out of here you stinky Steamie, the Dieselworks is no place for stinky Steamies.
I liked this review of the two sets. Very detailed as ever Leo! I think from what you have shown us from both of these sets I would choose the Take 'n' Play. My reason for this, I just think it looks more accurate and more fun to play with! Great job once again Leo?
Wooden railway dieselworks is my DREAM find
@TheLukei quite simply i feel as soon as you start to see batteries added to a toy like a wooden railway there's always a sniff of trouble
kids don't need these sorts of toys to talk to them
@dshaynie thanks, the face changes on the characters seems to have really divided the Thomas community
@SI3DFilms i'm not a fan of toys which have corners cut on them, the Dieselworks needed a little bit more thought put into it before it was signed off.
And I am still trying to work out why I have to pay almost double that of the US price considering the Australian dollar is stronger than the US. If I picked this set up for $35 I would have no complaints on the weak design features found in it.
@TrainzXtreme i picked up hoot today and an amazing chuggers playset, it was a special combo set for an amazingly low $55, and has a hot wheels style action
the low cost sucked me in I now wonder if what's inside is any good, the box artwork certainly looks like fun
you know i am yet to find a chuggers fan admit to being one..! it's a strange thing to see but who's watching my chuggers vids, a army of secret chugger fans
I must say, I wish I'd had Take n Play as a little kid. The locomotives are so much more accurate than the wooden toys.
1:11 Diesel uses Botox for some reason 🤣
I quite like your review and I agree with your words on your views on the playsets and how how playsets should be more detailed.:)
Awesome work on this review. I quite like both the Take N Play and Wooden Railway Sets.
"Bring back the old face!"
Lucky Mushroom Productions Bring us back to your old face
Ya bring it back 😡😤🤬
@fraynster some of the take n play models are excellent, Flynn is a fine example, in fact all the DOTD characters look great
I noticed on the back of the new collectors checklist (like the one included with the Dieselworks set) that there is a set featuring Percy, Kevin, and two flatbeds, one of which has a load with no magnetic attachment point. Instead, there's a little loop for Kevin's non-magnetic hook, so he can lift the load. Perhaps then maybe old Happy Hook isn't so useless after all.. provided of course that you have a set with the non magnet loop load. Hmm..
Just a random ramble, sorry if it is a bit long.
No one likes the TWR TOMY toys from 2011, but I want the 2011 Thomas
Wow it Looks awesome and i love the dieselworks of thomas & friends take n play and also percy at the dieselworks from thomas & friends wooden railway those are really useful sets and also really cool toys to me and i love thomas & friends take n play and also Thomas & Friends wooden railway man this is too awesome 😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍
Probably the cargo yard was added so that there was actually something to do in the dieselworks. If it was just Diesel 10's shed, the set would look pretty bland and boring with the only crane being happy hook. I think they added it so that Percy would have somewhere to deliver the cargo to without having to buy a separate destination / set
Edit: The take n play happy hook is actually pretty TV series Happy Hook because as you said "In the storyline he's considered being useless"
My Den is always getting caught on my tracks...

LOL, love the starting sequence. Maybe Diesel 10 was reformed when he fell off the viaduct in The Magic Railroad. A kind of pyhsicotherapy for locomotives and his change in nature, changed his face.
But Botox works too.
@thomasfan93 yep den and dart are very light models, in fact so is flynn and belle considering their large size
at least they won't destroy a large LCD TV being so light..! young kids can throw these toys and they can cause real damage
@LNER4771 you know from the times I have been to the USA i always loved the food, the serving sizes and variety
here in Oz we don't have diners, and I feel America does fantastic breakfast meals
ah, the memories
@martin0mac2000 The other idea is a film making one, often if there are green screen or digital effects a film will have a no blue or green aspect to a film, so they can use chroma key without issues, BUT I feel this is not the reason as the model series was basically shot in camera
i trember the old desel 10 crazy mad AMAZING
You should do something like this again but with track master classic and track master two🙂I enjoyed this when it was new and I still enjoy this video today in 2019
@HotShotOmega i have a idea the Thomas crowd culled many of the Green characters, Duck, Daisy, Boco to name 3. Look how every new character has it's own very defined colour scheme
I think Duck was basically the wrong colour and nothing else..! It's not easy being green!
This video wins a likes/dislikes competition
no it dosen't
Yes it does now
I love how I remember being scared of diesel 10 when watching this for the first time
Watching this now made me realize how much good I had it when I was 8 or
(I forgot when I watched this. I could’ve been 6 for all I know)
@koquicoqui thanks, that's a excellent price, sadly where i live toys are totally overpriced and often double the cost of what is seen in the USA, LEGO is a perfect example of this.
And This Is When The Toys We’re Good.
0:30 lol percy's face xddddddddd😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
He looks like Harvey
@4Corry maybe if I see it at a vastly reduced price, I have purchased a number of trackmaster sets and giant cranky mainly because they were heavily discounted
and I said i would never buy trackmaster, oh well here we go again
@scottthewaterwarrior great comment, I recently looked over 7 wooden railway sets, and sure the amount of plastic in some was quite suprising
i'm just wondering when does a wooden railway become a plastic one!
to me you buy wood because of the classic charm of wood thinking it will last a long time and be a worthwhile purchase, but in the end the dollar decides what goes on
seeing batteries in wooden toys is I feel another no, no, but hey i'm not a kid..!
07:47 Poor Duck; ever since the show converted to 100% CGI, he's always had bad luck, right?
You uploaded this on my birthday!
@leokimvideo Expect to see a lot more batteries in toys. I recently herd that a law was passed a few years ago that banned the production of toys that plug into the wall. I haven't been able to find much info about it, but both LEGO and Rokenbok switched over to battery power for all their electronic stuff at about the same time, and I haven't seen any "plug in" toys on the market since.
what strange about the wooden set is that the light in diesel 10`s shed is much brighter and more visiable on the advert for it
Trackmaster could totally make something almost just like this. Just make everything a little bigger, change the track to plastic, change the characters from wooden to Trackmaster (or plastic) and BAM! You've got a Trackmaster Dieselworks.
I kinda like the wooden railway Diesel works play set cause it almost matches the one from the movie but lacks the elevated turntable you see inside the building. but my only two complaints is that it only comes with one piece of rolling stock and its not one of those train sets that loop around.
You have a good point about the reviews... How about you try piecing together all of your Take N Play or Wooden Railway to show us what you really have... maybe to show an aspect od compadibility amung the same franchise?
hey leokimvideo i brought the take-n-play dieselworks when i saw this because i thought it was a great set. and im sure this will make you smile as i have found storage for diesel and those 2 legs. i will pull a video soon showing were to put these and i will be sure to mail you when it is up. love your videos and keep up the good work
Once again, a very good review Leo! I like the way these sets are made and I agree that the smelters hook thing on the wooden set is useless. I'd probably leave it out and find it broken because I didn't put it away right. Also, I have sevearl Percys, & that one looked like he overdid the botox a bit! Finally, one last niggle: Koko is an electric engine, and wouldn't have any reason to go to the dieselworks.
@22Tesla the whole botox joke comes from another user who made a comment in a video a long time back related to Thomas's CGI stare
i never could let the botox joke out of my head, i think the tuber was unknownthomasfan1....i think
@leokimvideo Hmmm Lots of thoughts to ponder. Well I dont think they could Axe Percy or Henry as they are fairly key characters to the show, whilst Dasiy, BoCo, Oliver, Duck were all just passing fancys, and were all green.
I would also love to see duck come back (Im not liking the whole CGI Thing as well, leaves absolutely NOTHING to the imagination, and everything is presented on a silver plattter, with full motion and everything)
A Wonderful well thought out reply Leo :)
I wish they didn't include the cargo yard in the wooden diesel works. I would have wanted at least Den, Dart and some more shed space.
That diesel set that is a wooden is really rare now I say you should keep your hands on it
Nice dolly zoom
@Dieselworks123 remember to show me the storage area in the instructions sheet..!
those green legs just appear from nowhere, it's a poor design not having those legs as a connected fold away option, in time they will be lost
Take and play is horable
@SI3DFilms as for Diesel sitting in top of the inverted turntable that's a fail as he just flies off when in transport, my other take n plays have little secure homes for engines, as for the floating legs, sure there is a spot for them BUT they should be incorporated into the design so the whole Dieselworks is a one piece, as with all my other take n play sets. In time those floating legs will go missing thats a no brainer.
Hank also gets hung up on the raised curved track, worth $58 ?
@14warr interesting, a few people are seeing a change in boiler shape
@littlegalah i don't do em anymore, i stopped selling out and do it for love, give it a go and see who you feel
it's time youtube reverted back to what it used to be
That cargo wagon is actually quite old because I also have one from 2003.
Hey the only thing different with Percy is his CGI face is used
I remember watching day of diesels, it was great when I watched it.
Percy's has a big smile thats it O_O
@SI3DFilms the instructions to the Dieselworks DO NOT illustrate or describe a storage area for Diesel, or show any storage area for the floating non attached green legs!
The legs are shown as things which appear from nowhere!
As always the devil is in the detain and the devil is missing in the otherwise excellent instructions, who knows all these important bits may have been lost in translation as so often happens.
If your instructions are different please let me know.
I must say, I do enjoy your attitude, when it comes to dealing with child toys. I talk much the same about television from the past and present, which is directed towards children.
Kids deserve good quality goods, entertainment, and toys. Just because they are young is no excuse to become lazy and produce garbage.
Interestingly The take along looks like the repaired Dieselworks from the end of the film and the wooden railway happy hook is like the repaired happy hook from the finished works.
@Armystuntman pretty soon we will see toys with claims of 'real plastic' as a sales pitch
Dude I thought Percy and desiel 10 were gonna kiss
Actually, that same cargo car has been in the wooden railway line since almost the beginning.
@TrainzXtreme lol, seems i have lost my chuggers stripes, and it's revealing who the real chugger fans are
who is hoot and toot..?? are they some sort of twins
i see them in the shops but not on the show
PERCY AND DIESEL 10 GIVE US BACK THE OLD FACE!
静静ii ui oo oo ffffffff
most new take n play sets with cranes don`t have hooks but they still can lift things .
My favorite diesel works is the wooden one
@ShuntingTank043 wow nice percy details
@randomguy652 i have a feeling it will be after Christmas and into the new year, i have to do the destruction of the wood stuff as well
Lovely video. Loved the bit in the beggining.
This is a good video.
That wooden railway. set is rare
@koquicoqui out of curiosity how much did you pay, i know it's rude to ask this but I would really like to know
leokimvideo are you ever going to revel what happens in the mad bomber episode 2
Btw I figured out who the mad bomber i think it’s Scottish John
i like the wooden one nice review Leo.
DarthAxe21Plays 000
@Legoghost14 has the wooden railway ALWAYS had plastic rolling stock....hmmmmm i don't think so, go look at the older classic "all wood" stuff
Yeah. Way better then the 1980s version.
@ninjakio930 remember the scary darker tales Thomas used to do..??
Very Nostalgic
