SLoTLT talk
Tbh I kinda disliked STH in this movie. SLoTLT was a fantastic movie, don't get me wrong but STH was the only character who I feel was a bit too mean in it. I understand he's a controller so he has to be strict and bossy, but he didn't even let Thomas explain ANYTHING of what happened.
When Thomas derailed Gordon's coaches, he tried explaining to Sir Topham Hatt what happened and likely due to panicking, he ended up blaming Emily and Gordon. Also, the whole thing wouldn't have happened if Gordon hadn't teased him. Did STH ever think to ask around for what happened?? He could've asked Annie and Clarabel, or even James or the workers!

Also, about Thomas's behaviour; there's people who complain that Thomas is too dickish in the movie, but...isn't that kinda part of his character? Thomas has ALWAYS been a cheeky prick, and if you look at the Unlucky Tug's movie ranking vid, he mentions that SLoTLT is where Thomas's personality is TOTALLY CORRECT. Yeah, he was also in the wrong for the incident at Knapford, but again, Gordon set him off into a cheeky mood. I reckon if Gordon hadn't said anything, Thomas probably wouldn't have done that. Emphasis on probably.
Also, I can I just say that the antagonist, Sailor John is absolutely RUTHLESS?! He blows up Knapford station, he wacks Thomas in the face with an ore and throws live dynamite at him! It's not sugar-coated in any way. I'm also sure he abuses Skiff?? He stomps on his deck, kicks him and threatens him. That's pretty dark, in fact the whole Sailor John part of the movie is dark.
I wish people talked about the movie and this villian more. One more thing; if you've ever looked at the wiki about him, it says he was originally part of the Royal Navy! This guy has lore.

Traintober Day 24: Odd Jobs
I love how Thomas is just sent to do whatever miscellaneous work needs to be done whenever his branch line is down for repair. Like in Tale of the Brave! So Timothy's here!

Anyone else think it's kinda messed up that Skiff the Sailboat can't breath water?
Like. Dude is a BOAT. You would think that maybe because he's supposed to always be in the water he shouldn't be struggling to breathe all the time. Yet every time his face goes under he's always coughing and spluttering.
Like, why would they make a boat. That usually goes in the water. That can't breathe underwater? That just feels like needless struggling to me.
Anyway, just me? Ok.

Ttte story idea
I came up with a movie idea and I wanted to write it down so here it is!
So.... Yknow the story of both TGD and SLOTLT right?How essentially the main plot point of the movies are that Thomas is afraid that a new engine is going to replace him? And because of that fear he treats the engine terribly and even tries to sabotage them?
I was thinking... What if it was reversed? What if when a new engine comes to Sodor, Thomas is nothing but kind to them.... But *everyone else* thinks that the new guy is here to replace Thomas?What if it's all the others that are paranoid?
So I imagine it as an ensemble story switching from different points of view, Let's say all of the Tidmouth gang? And the story is still focused on Thomas but he's just the main driving point. It's not from his perspective but from everyone else's!
I'll write more as I think of it, but feel free to add more or give feedback!

Why is the Spanish version of "Never Overlook a Little Engine" actually more dope than the English version. Like, they actually sing better.

Roles:
Thomas as Oliver (however, he has a second form: his normal face with red eyes. Also, the beast inside him is a demon he is struggling to control, and whenever he has his face on, he can talk.)
Gordon as Duck (based on Sodor Fallout AU: Gordon…How Could you?... - YouTube)
Percy as Thomas
Toby is his own character
Duck is his own character
Donald as Gordon
Douglas as Donald
Oliver as Douglas (I ship Oliver and Douglas. Also, Oliver doesn't sacrifice himself.)
Emily is her own character
Rosie is her own character (I ship her and Thomas, but if you want, you can have the one you ship Thomas with be the one to tell him to fight demon inside him.)
Lady is her own character (She brings everyone back at the end and cures James and Percy' mutations)
Molly as Emily
Neville is his own character (he saves the engine that takes Percy's role along with Stanley)
Stanley is his own character
Ryan as Percy (he survives)
Annie and Clarabel are the same
Henrietta as both Annie and Clarabel
Scruffy is the same
Toad as Scruffy
The Fat Controller/Sir Topham Hatt as Toby (he is kidnapped and taken to the ironworks, where he sees Thomas as the Beast. Topham tries to apologize to Thomas, but Thomas just attacks him along with the other men. Topham barely escapes, but not before he is injected, which causes him to get a second face behind his original face. Topham feels so much guilt and feels responsible for Thomas turning into the Beast, not helped by the face that's constantly tormenting him, which eventually leads to him shooting himself with a gun.) Lowham Hatt as The Fat Controller/Sir Topham Hatt
Sailor John as PT Boomer
Skiff as Toad
Everyone else are the same

The scene from Sodor’s legend of the lost treasure where Donald and Douglas are transporting the ship has me in a chokehold. I need to inject the soundtrack into my veins IMMEDIATELY.

Mirabel Madrigal cuts Sir Topham Hatt and makes him cry
[SET IN Sodor's Legend of the Lost Treasure, right after the dynamite scene]
The Fat Controller: [raging furious, screaming] THOMAS THE TANK ENGINE!!!
Thomas: Uh-oh.
The Fat Controller: [raging furious] What are you playing at now? I thought you could learn to be more responsible if I sent you to work here.
Thomas: [tries desperately to explain] But, sir! This time, it's really not my fault! I...
The Fat Controller: [rudely interrupts, still raging furious, refusing to listen] NO, THOMAS!!! I've had quite enough of your excuses! Go to your shed immediately, and you can stay there for the rest of the afternoon!
[MIRABEL MADRIGAL APPEARS]
Mirabel Madrigal: How dare you do this, Topham! HOW DARE YOU PUNISH THOMAS JUST BECAUSE HE WAS SAVING YOUR QUARRY FROM THE DYNAMITE!!!!
Sir Topham Hatt: That changes nothing! I saw him pushing the dynamite, so he was the one to blame!!!!
Mirabel Madrigal: Oh, so now you wanna blame him again!
Thomas: Now, now, why don't we all just act like nothing happened?
Mirabel Madrigal: [To Thomas] You stay out of this! [to Topham] Prepare to be taught a lesson, Jerk!
[She grabs Sir Topham Hatt's arm, and cuts his face with sharp scissors. everyone gasps. there's silence for a minute or two, then, Sir Topham Hatt bursts into tears.]
Sir Topham Hatt: YOU'RE A VERY BAD GIRL, MIRABEL MADRIGAL! I NEVER WANNA SEE YOU AGAIN AS LONG AS I LIVE!!!! [RUNS AWAY, CRYING.]
Mirabel Madrigal: Serves you right, Sir Topham Pig-Face! [turns to see her family, the Madrigals, glaring at her] Uh-oh....

steam team's seniors during their baby years
A friend group so weird and toxic to people they dislike it could rival It’s Always Sunny In Philadelphia’s. They're not immune to the "I came to Sodor to avoid my problems and wanted a fresh start" trope many Sudrians also follow
Edward Pettigrew
Age: 31 as of 1984
A kind, friendly NWR railwayman who didn’t mind a lot of things and was popular amongst younger folks for his looks and demeanor. He likes showing newbies the ropes of the NWR and Sodor as a whole because he just loves infodumping. Despite being made fun of by some railwaymen for his “weirdness”, Edward worked hard and was known as the jack-of-all-trades by his peers, usually treating younger and newer railwaymen to drinks after work to get them accustomed to Sodor (he did this to Henry, then Gordon, then James). Originally from the village of Pezë in Tirana, Albania, 1940s. Due to his beginnings in a small rural village and the Albanian government’s censorship of outside influences and heavy restriction of traveling outside the country, Edward’s hunger for knowledge about the world grew more and more. His family had connections to the Lëvizja Nacional-Çlirimtare and Edward’s particularly bright and good at talking, so he became a diplomat to travel outside Albania – a step into his plans of learning more about the world. After landing himself in the United Kingdom and studying everything he wanted, he believes it’s still not enough. He found out about an island infamous for its supernatural occurrences and cases of people missing just off the coast of the UK – Sodor. Being the curious man he is, he discarded everything that’s needed for the LNÇ to locate him and landed on Sodor, gorging himself with every mystery the island has to offer. Impulsive? Yes. But for the first time, Edward felt true freedom. However, Edward got too curious and nosy and became a casualty in an accident fueled by supernatural hysteria related to Lady of the Legend and was transported around 40 years into the future, landing in 1983 with his memories all over the place. Despite losing his sense of self and having no idea what he is, his thirst for knowledge still lives on inside his head. His cheerfulness, amicability, and kindness are extensions he formed to make up for the hole inside his heart. Edward does love his friends, but he believes that if he can withhold information from them and make them all live in blissful ignorance, they can be truly happy – this all stems from his fear of exceeding his limits and being discarded (which he later copes by being a typical wise friendly old man in 1999). He often sees visages of Lady in his dreams.
Gordon J. Gresley
Age: 26 as of 1984
Joined after Henry. Looked like he was fresh out of a funeral. A young hotshot who was more polite, quiet, and reserved compared to his 1999 counterpart. Gordon started out as an apprentice fireman for the Wild Nor’Wester’s previous driver. He treated his arrival on Sodor as a desperate last resort to escape his issues and grief and pitifully believed he was “lumped with the social pariahs in the boonies”, but he’s gotten better and believed that this is where he can truly outshine everyone, much to the annoyance and chagrin of his seniors. Gordon acts like he knows what he’s doing in order to build up his image as someone who’s dependable and strong and revels in small basks of limelight. However, he was constantly uncomfortable with how Edward treated accidents as normal due to their survivors being in tip-top shape the next day and how Henry is so distrustful of and odd about everything and everyone and sweats 24/7, but he’s been masking and convincing himself that he’s not like the rest of them. He’s normal. He’s normal! Let’s all hold hands. Don’t be fooled by his sad face. Young Gordon can be arrogant and think he knows everything for being a youngin.
Henry Stanier
Age: 27 as of 1984
Joined after Edward, so he’s quite close to him. Gordon’s “senior” by 6 months. He’s always, ALWAYS scared endlessly about anything “out of the ordinary” and beats himself up over it, much to his own disgust. Henry had a deep rooted hatred and jealousy towards his peers for pitying him after a coworker revealed to other railwaymen that he’s narcoleptic without his permission. He’s been masking his disabilities despite it being detrimental for his well-being, but as long as people treated him “normally”, Henry would endure (dreadfully). He did this especially with Gordon, the newest addition to the Northwestern Railway at the time, because he didn’t want anyone else to treat him differently when they find out about his health issues. As an extention, Henry developed a vitriol towards Gordon too – he’s particularly jealous about how he’s so “ungrateful” of everything’s given to him like his fair looks, clothes, and position as the to-be face of the Wild Nor’Wester. They did become friends though despite the process not being easy. It’s okay. They became besties that were mean to old nosy folks. Initially wanted to pursue arts, but due to circumstances from his past related to his health and paranoia fueled by his past failures and “jinxes”, he came to Sodor as a half-hearted last resort to get a job. He wasn’t hopeful of having anyone respect him for who he is, but things do get better, much to his surprise.
James A. Hughes
Age: 25 as of 1989
Joined the NWR 5 years after Edward did. At that point, Gordon already discarded his GNR Green look and went for the blue attire (minus the big coat). Flaunts his beauty almost at any given time, especially when someone mildly complimented him. He’s more of a nerd (word used loosely because he acts like a know-it-all when he actually has no idea what he’s doing) compared to his canon, 1999 counterpart. James came to Sodor for a fresh start and believed he deserves more than what he’s given. He thinks he’s so tough and hard as nails – in fact it became his source of hubris because he gets into accidents and was scolded by his seniors for being so vain and stubborn. He doesn’t want to get dirty, he doesn’t want to shovel coal, he doesn’t want to get wet from the washdown suds – he only wants the good out of the work and doesn’t want to accept the “bad” sides as well, so James was branded as the “problem kid” of the NWR by older folks. James, who can’t handle harsh criticism and labels well, grow even more distant with them. He primarily hangs out with the RWS trio because they seem to understand his situation and the feeling of being “outcasted” (despite Gordon’s annoyance at his boastfulness).

Thomas' Flight instinct
after watching most of the TTTE movies there was always one question in the back of my mind : why is it when Thomas does something really bad, his first instinct is to just run away? Like buddy, I know your friends are mad at you, but I don't think running will solve anything...
Is it just a fear of confrontation? A coping mechanism? Guilt? Why doesthis little tank engine have such a bad flight response? Can someone pls explain.....
