  • Dear Viewers,
    Its the fall of 1977 and Sir Topham Hatt has ordered the construction of new Motorail Terminals at Tidmouth, Killdane, and Vicarstown. This was to increase passenger convenience and expand the NWR's business endeavors to include automobile transport for local dealerships. The mainline engines like Henry, James, Bear, and Donald & Douglas are to pull these hot new trains. Even Gordon is being trialed with Motorails on the Wild Nor' Wester. James one day was feeling quite impatient considering he hadn't gotten a chance to pull the train yet. The engines are fed up with his complaining but after Henry experiences a major issue, James gets his chance sooner than expected, but how well did it go?
    Sincerely, The Creator
    This is my first Thomas fan story in quite a few years so hopefully it turned out alright, lemme know what you think! I also wanted to try narrating something other than commentary videos for a change. I should also point out that the SI3D Sodor route and The Railway Works' Vicarstown set have been heavily modified by me so just be aware of that before you download the latter. Also, I wasn't aware someone had already written a Motorail-focused story (Henry & The Motorail by dcg12b Trainz) for Trainz until I was just about completed with my script and finishing up my upgrades to the sets used in the video. I don't watch very many Trainz Thomas videos so in other words, I didn't intend on ripping off someone's idea. This idea actually came to me after I was just looking at random stations on Sodor and discovered Killdane had a Motorail Terminal built in 1977 according to the TTTE Wikia. Anyway, hope you enjoy!
    This video is also intended for a general audience, putting this here so UA-cam doesn't try to fuck this video with a YT kids rating.

    It's so great to see you back to doing more original Thomas content again, and brilliant story! I love the cinematography shots you've done, as well as how you've written Henry and James' characters and their rivalry. Poor Henry really does have a problem with tires, does he? And the part where the car fell off from the motorail flatbed after James yanked at it reminded me a bit of 'There Goes a Truck'. I can't imagine what the owner of the car would have to say about this. LOL!
    Also, I love how you used actual British siren sounds for railway crossings unlike the CGI Series. Keep up the great work!
