Alright peeps it's time for more train related info dumping! This time it's relivent to the Great Ace Attorney Chronicles as it's my most recent hyperfixation. As a train fanatic I of course hard core apprected the scene for when our heroes, Ryunosuke Naruhodo and Susato Mikotoba arrive in London by train and stop to admire the steam locomotives in the station.

So let's talk about those engines
So for context, this game takes place in the year 1900. Since this is well before the establishment of British Rail we are looking at a smaller privatized railway company. For this time period with service to London we would be looking at the North Eastern Railway which still exists today as the London North Eastern Railway (LNER). I can already tell upon looking at the livery of rollingstock that the livery shown in the games is consistent with the real deal. Who could ever forget the LNER green livery of the world famous Flying Scotsman?

As you can see the engines shown in the game are consistent with the green livery, gold accents, and red buffer board. So while we are looking at these engines, let's put a name to these locomotive faces. Starting with the two tank engines on the right.
Both of these engines most closely resemble Aerolite which would make sense chronologically except for only one of these engines was built and it wasn't a member of a class until around 1910 when it was considered a member of the X1 class (which was mass produced beginning in 1909)
Tumblr media
That is unless the Great Ace Attorney and Thomas and Friends take place in the same universe and we are looking at Aerolite and Whiff (who is based on Aerolite) side by side
Tumblr media
Sure you could argue that they are class Es or Js, but the shapes are not right at all for that.
Anyways Aerolite was NER 66 built in 1869 and served until 1933.
So how about the engine on the left? Oh good another one that makes me want to pull my hair out because it's a Raven class 4-6-0 which weren't built until 1910
I'm not having fun anymore.
And before you ask, Queen Victoria died in 1901 and Soseki Natsume was the correct age for the game to take place in 1900 so "maybe the setting of the game was in the 1910s" is not a viable option here.
Anyways the Raven class was a "high speed" mixed traffic engine and for some reason the one they showed doesn't have a cab.
Ok can I have a nice refreshing period accurate engine now please?
Tumblr media
Ok engine on the far far left appears to be an NER 901 class engine oh thank fuck an accurate engine at last.
Tumblr media
This baby was built between 1873 and 1882 and served until 1925.
I guess at the end of the day I can't complain too much over the accuracy because A. It was a few seconds of footage, B. They were mostly in the ballpark of correct timing, it's not like they were WAAYYY off, and C. Most people aren't fucking weirdos like myself who will obsess over details as trivial and stupid as the accuracy of steam engines in a lawyer game that takes plenty of obvious creative liberties anyways.

We have moved past Maya and Franziska wingmanning narumitsu as a society. They would not fucking do that. We need to realise the truth which is that Larry and Gumshoe would try to wingman them and only succeed through failure

Learning anything about marine mammal training will make you re-evaluate so much of your relationship with your own pets. There is so much force involved in the way we handle domestic animals. Most of it isn’t even intentional, it just stems from impatience. I’m guilty of it myself!
But with the exception of certain veterinary settings where the animal’s health is the immediate priority, why is it so important to us that animals do exactly what we want exactly when we want it? Why do we have to invent all these tools and contraptions to force them to behave?
When a whale swam away from a session, that was that. The trainer just waited for them to decide to come back. If they flat out refused to participate in behaviors, they still got their allotment of fish. Nothing bad happened. Not even when 20-30 people were assembled for a procedure, and the whale chose not to enter the medical pool. No big deal. Their choice and comfort were prioritized over human convenience.
It’s almost shocking to return to domestic animal medicine afterwards and watch owners use shock collars and chokers and whips to control their animals. It’s no wonder that positive reinforcement was pioneered by marine mammal trainers. When you literally can’t force an animal to do what you want, it changes your entire perspective.
I want to see that mindset extended to our domestic animals.

Toothless snorts. Once again, they're face to face. Hiccup slowly extends his hand. Toothless hesitates. Hiccup turns his head away and closes his eyes. To his amazement, Toothless bridges the gap and presses his muzzle against Hiccup's hand.
