      There has been at least a few cases in real life.
      For example, the Great Eastern Railway ran so-called "Jazz trains". They served north east suburbs of London, and were quite possibly the most hectic services in the entire country. A passenger train would arrive at the end of its service, and crews and workers usually had only ten minutes to serve a train and clear the platform (sometimes less), including having to change engines or run around trains. It was extremely important trains left on time, as any delays had a huge domino effect on following trains. There was apparently more than one case where a tank engine left the station without coaches. Sometimes it was caught quickly, but there was at least one case where it wasn't until the train made it to the next station that the crew noticed they left behind their train!

    According to your comments, there are a couple minor callbacks I did in fact miss. They are as follows:
    "The Sad Story of Henry"
    In Season 20's Henry in the Dark, the engines tease Henry for always being scared and Gordon recites the opening rhyme of that episode, recalling the time Henry stayed in the tunnel because he was afraid of the rain. Henry also says "Chicken pox are scarier than RAIN" in Season 19's Henry Spots Trouble.
    "The Flying Kipper"
    In 2013's King of the Railway, Gordon laments Henry needing special coal, to which Toby responds "That was fixed years ago!", referring to Henry's rebuild in this episode. I can't believe I forgot this one!
    "Special Funnel" and "Steamroller"
    In Season 24's The Great Little Railway Show, Peter Sam brags about his special funnel, and Sir Handel brags about his wheels. Both things are introduced in their respective episodes, though they aren't really recalling events from them so I don't think this one really counts.
    I think that's it, though I wouldn't be surprised if there's more. Comment below if you know of others!

  • @ThomasTheorist
    @ThomasTheorist 6 місяців тому +90

    This was - as always - a really great video!
    Personally though, i think I would've structured it slightly differently, as in, instead of working the refrences back through the classic series, I would've worked my way through the CGI series itself, talking about how they evolved over time. I think it would've helped with alot of the context of the references too, with why they were being brought up, because I do think there is a storta evolution to how they refrences the classic stuff in the CGI series, and how the CGI canon slowly changed over time. haha, this is also a video idea I've been toying around with for awhile, I must do it at some point!

    • @ThomasTheorist
      @ThomasTheorist 6 місяців тому +20

      ALSO just a few refrences i've thought of off the top of my head.
      I think Peter Sam and Sir Handel mentioned "Special Funnel" and "Steamroller" in The Great Little Railway Show. In Big World Adventures, Thomas talks about wanting to go see the world, which is a call back to Thomas & the Trucks. In Henry and the Dark, Gordon says "Once an Engine attached to a train was a afraid of a few drops of rain". In Cranky at the end of the line, the line that cranky says is quite similar to his introduction line. In The Other Side of the Mountain, Thomas and Bertie talk about him flying, which is a call back to Bertie's line at the end of "Thomas & Bertie". Lost Treasure has the same line about Thomas' firebox in "Thomas & Gordon" from Series 1. In The Thomas Way, a screen shot from Series 6 is used, while not an episode references, it is a call back to the model series with the photo.
      And I think thats about it

    40:50-41:08 I don't think it's really that strange though because Unscheduled Stops was 14 years later from Bulgy Rides Again, Thomas could've easily forgotten about Bulgy cause he never really knew him for any prolonged time at all, and Bulgy not being the most trustworthy of characters back in Season 3 was going to use shortcuts to gradually rid the engine race, and on his first day of plotting on the Little Western he was trying to get to the other side of Tidmouth's terminus before Duck until he found he wasn't big enough to fit under a bridge, and Thomas was one of the engines at the other side of the terminus when Duck reclaimed the passengers, and after Duck probably telling Thomas how troublesome Bulgy was doesn't that speak volumes for mistrust?

    Strange that Season 5 didn’t have that much callbacks. It would’ve been interesting to have episodes recalling those episodes. Whether it’s Cranky’s first day at the docks being cranky and later got toppled by a tramp steamer, the engines having trouble with lorries, Gordon crashing through a station, James having trouble with a tree, Percy feeling put upon with too much work,Toad being a runaway train, Duncan getting spooked believing he saw a ghost train on the old iron bridge or the engines experience with a boulder. Plus it would’ve been cool to see Derek, Old Slow Coach, Bertram, or Old Bailey again as well as bring George back for an episode and give Thumper and episode and recall Rusty and the Boulder.

All they had to do was taper the firebox and remove the splashes. It would've only taken like 10 minutes.

    I really like this video! Honestly, I'm kind of a sucker for callbacks and references to past events since it shows that continuity exists. I was surprised to see that one from 'Percy & the Magic Carpet'. I also think that the "He could've bashed into some buffers" line was a reference to 'Thomas & the Trucks' since Gordon hits the buffers at Maron Station like Thomas did. If not, it was probably a reference to 'Thomas the Quarry Engine' where the same thing happens. Anyway, nice job, Tug!
