Hey everyone! I very much hope you enjoy this closer look at my sixth Thomas episode.
This episode was gradually filmed, bit by bit, over the course of five years. Throughout this video, you’ll be able to see how I improved over the years in terms of set design, lighting, steam effects, and hopefully more.
I threw in as many filming outtakes, narration bloopers, and deleted shots I could find in my files, as well as a special montage of the Top 10 takes of the tender crash.
If you have any questions about a certain shot, set, filming technique, or special effect, please don’t hesitate to leave a comment here, on my Twitter, or on my community page! I’d love to answer them!
Thank you all again so much! Stay tuned for a completely new “Back on Track” music video this Fall!

1:20 Douglas: oh are ya ready or not?
Top tier Micheal Rosen reference
@@donaldthescotishtwin Haha glad you got it! XD
Donald and Douglas: You when you’ve failed your college classes and are trying to find ways around hiding from your parents by coming up with fake ways to make it seem like you’re doing okay Sir Topham Hatt: Your parents/guardian you’re trying to hide from Yeah I admit I failed my college classes but I haven’t told my parents so I’ve been hiding this for months and making it seem like I’ve still been doing it. It’s kinda like how here Donald and Douglas were trying to cover up losing Thomas’ Special Coach with things getting worse. I think I will have to come clean soon I have to retake some classes.
I Think ive now watched this about 8 times...humour is on point
Aw thanks! I love to hear it! Been working on the scripts for Ep 7 and 8 this past month. :)

20:22 is that brown crane mehano?
I'm not sure sorry, I got it second-hand from a model shop. But looking at pictures online, it looks very similar to the Mehano brand cranes!
This has to be the most talented fandom
I agree! I think I've seen 4 or 5 different versions of The Missing Coach alone this year - all unique from each other and made through different mediums. I can't name one other fandom that can make so many of their own stories in so many different mediums. Thanks for watching!
You know the set designs were good when I legit thought it was just one big model railway for the most part
Aw thanks so much! For this episode, I tried extra hard to make the sets feel connected with each other since most of the story takes place in Tidmouth Yard. I made a giant map to plan out my camera angles too, so I'm glad it paid off! Thank you for noticing!
I find the Special Coach's fate in this hilarious in retrospective. Great adaptation. This has enough material to be a special. I consider this The Comedy of Errors of Thomas
Haha thank you so much! I was so excited when I thought of that little twist in the last shot. And that's a good way of putting it! I love scenes in movies where things just get worse and worse and more and more and more complicated in a comedic way. So glad you liked it! :)
@@SootyWill You're welcome. And speaking of specials, forget the Steam Team Special, I would've loved to see an adaptation of the Missing Coach similar to this. If this was Donald and Douglas's last episode in the TV show, then I think it would've been the perfect swan song for them. Plus it would be the ultimate in joke, on how their final episode would've been their first episode.
15:34 this is just referencing when douglas will help oliver and toad to escape to sodor, i love this story. The addition of thomas helping douglas makes me smile a lot, since in the original story he barely did much. and this is, hands down the most unique version of the missing coach!
Aw thank you so much! I really liked Thomas' little arc in this episode so I'm glad to hear it! I appreciate the kind words! :)
@@SootyWill Nah, thank you for making such a masterpiece. keep up the good work
@@BlueTheCharredGuy22 Thank you again very much, that's very kind of you. ^^ I'm working on two more parody songs this week and making plans for filming more episodes soon!
R.I.P David , he was a true one
6:13. Donald is having what we call an 'Oh Sh*t' moment.
Name a more iconic trio. I'll wait.
The way you shot undercarriage POV's of the engines was absolutely genius.
@@The_NW_EngineYT Aw thank you so much! I was really happy they turned out well, thanks for noticing!
I don't know why but Douglas at 5:18 screeching COACH always gets me
@@ROADSTERDUDE That was such a fun face to edit for that shot haha! 🤣 Glad to hear it! Love to hear when my videos make people laugh
Oh my god the references T-T
@@The_NW_EngineYT LOL I might have put in a few too many. But in my defense Ep 5 barely had any! 🤣
How did you make you HO figures?
@@MasterMew13 Most of the HO figures I just bought from stores. I 3D printed Sir Topham Hatt from a Tinkercad model. The rest of the humans were all edited.
I can see why this took you a few years to make. The amount of sets you used to film this whole thing is insane, many others wouldn't even have the patience for that! Love how you filmed the tender crash too, very clever to use a seesaw-style piece to throw dirt in the air. That, combined with the slowed down footage really makes it look and feel like a proper crash.
@@kupferbergbahn7952 Aw thank you so much! That means a lot. It was a lot of fun but definitely got tedious, having to make 3-4 sets just for Sir Topham Hatt closeups haha. And thanks! Very happy with the tender crash. I was trying to achieve the explosion effect from the HIT era. Thanks for the kind words, I really appreciate it! :)
6:09, 6:11 and 6:39: Theres no way anybody with Bachmann engines can do these kinds of shots! Face reveal in the blooper reel! :D 6:58: Alec Baldwin S5 James be like: 😂🤣❤ Lets not forget we have Thomas characters that are named Eagle, Falcon, Gator, Toad and Bear. 🐸🐊🐻🦅 Percy's animal name would be puppy since I feel like when I look at his baby toy models I have the feeling hes giving me puppy eyes. 😊💚🐶
Entertaining, funny, engaging. Fantastic work!
@@octoguy3931 Thank you so much! That means a lot! :)
can you please make a scene where Henry and Duke argue with Rheneas being confused of what is happening and the sheds
It’s so awesome to see people use models to recreate Thomas! I understand why not everyone can do it this way but I always appreciate it. Fantastic work! Subbing to this channel to see what other awesome projects you do! Also, 16:14 is absolutely terrifying! 😨
@@ivorythebashful Aw thank you so much! It definitely took a lot of work so that means a lot to hear. I really appreciate the sub!
I find it really clever how you managed to blend all of those sets together into something that looks and feels really cohesive.
Thanks so much! I forgot to include it, but I made a big map of my version of Tidmouth Yard that I referred to while I was filming. If I make a commentary I'll definitely include it! I put a lot of effort into making the sets look somewhat cohesive since most of the story takes places in only one or two locations, so thanks for noticing!
You know you made a good video when The Unlucky Tug himself gives you a shoutout.
Aw thanks so much! Glad you liked it! :)
Glad to have been sent here by The Unlucky Tug.
Thanks so much for checking it out!
Perfect timing considering what video had released with Donald and Douglas
This is awesome! I love all your references, nuances, & jokes. I noticed you switched it from Douglas masquerading with Donald's tender (RWS) to Donald masquerading with Douglas' tender- very sneaky :D I think my favorite line comes from James "See Topham, this is why tender engines don't shunt coaches, we have no idea what we're doing!" Instead of the snooty 'tender engines don't shunt because we are above it', its' "we don't shunt because we are incompetent' very nice touch XD Thomas' "or else" was also golden :) Very well done, I really enjoyed this :D
Thank you very much! This was definitely the most fun I had writing and recording a video yet, so I'm glad it paid off! I love hearing what little moments or jokes people liked - thank you so much! XD
The Fat Controller : DONALD !!! Donald : Oh Boy !
This is the superior version of this story in my opinion. It is so chaotic it's hilarious😂.
Haha thank you so much! I was definitely trying to make it chaotic, so I'm glad to hear it!
I want this played at my funeral
LOL I think that's the first time I've gotten that haha! Glad you liked it!
I was brought her by Lucky Tug along with many others I'm sure. This was such a joy to watch from start to finish. The plot and characters make it feel like a true model era episode with cheeky in jokes and humor sprinkled throughout that made me chuckle! All the creative direction in this is very clever, and I'll be rewatching this episode and showing it to my friends for a loooong time.
@@Amunisence Aw thank you so much! That seriously means so much, I really appreciate the kind words. It was a lot of fun but definitely took months of work, so thanks for noticing all those elements. I definitely had the most fun writing this episode more than any other haha I hope your friends enjoy it too! Thanks again :)
I've been legit fascinated by your videos for a while now They have the perfect of Homemade charm but professional film making (If that makes sense Lol) I love how even Donald gets confused with the whole number swapping thing "Their looking for you! I mean me!" Had me laughing so hard. And I LOVE The connection between Thomas and Douglas I've never noticed that the both of them came to Sodor by mistake. It's such an interesting thing to point out about the two. Just out of curiosity, How did make the dirt fly up when Douglas' Tender crashed into the embankment? Either way This was great Sorry for the long comment Can't wait to see more^^
Oh my gosh thank you so much!! That seriously means so much to know! And yes, I see what you mean and I'm glad to hear it! I had to ask my dad to use his model ship for Thomas' flashback and my mom to use her potting soil for the tender crash, so my videos are still very much homemade haha. This was probably the most fun I had writing and recording a video. And yes, I was very excited when I remembered Thomas' backstory and how to tie it back to Douglas. Their shed scenes was the hardest to write, so I'm glad to hear it was effective! As for the tender crash, I launched a pile of dirt in the air with a Lego plate, filmed it in slow-motion on my iPhone, and covered it up with a bush in post. I included some of the unedited takes and overhead pictures in my Behind-The-Scenes if you'd like a better look! czcams.com/video/HPvveZnWrEI/video.htmlsi=7IlfRkZAd-k01tJ9&t=125 Thank you again so much for all the kind words - I love long comments! It makes all the work worth it! :D
Thomas is written like season 1 thomas had his filter removed and his tolerance shortened and it is hilarious. Enjoyed this episode from the Tug's recommendation.
Thanks so much! And yes, I figured that since this episode is a flashback, I could make Thomas a bit more crazy than usual and get away with it haha. He was definitely the most fun to voice. Glad you liked it, thanks for checking it out!
I bloody *love* that you made the tender swapping finally make sense!
Haha thanks so much! That was one of my goals when rewriting the story, so I'm glad to hear it!
@@SootyWill aye, well done.
"Oh and Donald?" "Yes sir?" "Donald?" "Y-Yes...?" "Donald. Donald. DONALD!" "Oh boy."
This is a fantastic take on the introduction of the Twins! I really love this one!
@@PCMan8922 Thank you so much! Love to hear it! :)
I laughed out loud when, after ALL that, the Special Coach was decommissioned in the end XD But it makes the most sense. We never hear about or see it after this story. Best version of this story yet!
@@SNER333 Haha glad to hear it! I was very excited when I thought of that last little punchline. Thank you so much!
5:04 This is the perfect summary of Thomas as a character, cheerful and friendly, but quick to anger the second he's inconvenienced.
@@ultra6671 Haha yes exactly! Thats what I was going for. Glad you liked it!
Are you going to do video commentary about the episode or did you stop doing it? I was just wondering it since it was neat to know the preduction and detication. Of course we already see the detication here with all the takes but you know what I mean?
@@thesodorcrew Thanks so much! I’m definitely thinking about it! The commentaries take a lot of time to edit, and I wasn’t sure if people were still interested in them. I would have to make a commentary for Ep 4 and 5 first, but I’m glad to know you’d like to see them! That really means a lot :)
You should "Dreamworksify" (what I call the witty writing with multiple references) more Thomas episodes. This adaption was really entertaining
@@gordieboi2340 Aw thanks so much! I’ll definitely have to think about it! I did a rewrite of “The Runaway” a couple years ago and filmed some broll footage on some of my sets. Glad to know you’d like to see more like this!
@SootyWill Cool, I can't wait to see it. While adaptions of Wilbert's stories are always entertaining, I can't wait to see how you adapt Christopher's cause they're mid. His stories aren't really character driven and are basically just "engines do train thing"; his style felt less like sentient engines and more just engines that just so happened to be alive
I love how the tender crashes in the final cut where the dirt obscures the number juusst perfectly so nobody can see that it’s a 10 and not a 9
@@DoritoTime Thanks so much! That was just something I did on the fly and used a bit of editing trickery to cover up. Thanks for noticing!
That was quite an impressive story. Also, that final scene with the special coach, what a twist.
Thanks very much! Glad you liked it. I was so excited when I thought of the little twist for the end haha
This is to good
Thanks so much!
Personally, the animal name I would have given James is Cardinal. He’s bright red, proud, and makes a lot of noise! 😁
hol up Isabelle theres a banger on
Love it! Beautiful! Takes me back to my childhood! Keep it up lads!
Aw thanks so much! Glad you liked it! :)
Seriously, keep this up! If you ever want to redub it with a genuine Scottish accent I'd be happy to contribute! I also live not far from the Speyside railway where the last surviving 812 is.
Thanks so much! I'll do my best. And that's so cool! Hope I can go to that railway someday.
@@SootyWill If you're ever in the area just give me a shout. Would be a pleasure to show you around. There are a few heritage railways around here. Another nearby one does the Day Out With Thomas thing in summer with a replica E2.
