There aren't many stories about Toby's past and this was a very good one. I love the illustrations and the one of a wrecked Roger was quite haunting. Probably my favourite story of this edition of HOTR.
That is true
Is Roger a horrid team engine, and is he restored after he smashed?
@@ajzorn123uhhhhh
well uhhhh
They took him to pieces to be scrapped.
I honestly love Henrietta’s voice here, it suits her well!
Props to the artist behind these drawings. They all look good enough to be in a Railway Series book!
Ooh... Here I expected Roger to be split in half or completely flattened by the falling crane, but the picture I saw turns out to be just as gruesome. Never thought I'd see the insides of a tram engine.
Not exactly a horror story, but a good one to show on Halloween.
This is what happens when he acted like an ass
Big fan of your work
What happened to Rogers silver buffers?
Uh bended??
When we saw him crushed, his buffers were black.
I can already tell that this will be about one of Toby's brothers from the RWS. It's always nice to see people expand upon obscure RWS characters.
Oh, Heck....this was dark and I wet my pants while watching this vid.
@@westinbridges7321 Did I need to know that?
no
Rigt that this story was based on a Real life evento.
damn i see you everywhere now
That was quite an interesting story! I think this is the first time I've ever seen a fan story about Toby's younger days at the harbor, and it makes a perfect origin story for him and Henrietta. As for Roger, the imagery of him basically being crushed to death is quite disturbing, to say the least.
Hello, Lyra
@@RandomTrinidadian Yup, that's her! ^_^
I have to say that getting a story about Toby's past is very interesting to do, as we barely get much. The only ones that I can think of are the special holiday from the books, a strawberry special and a rude green bus from magazine stories. Listening to Roger's pride/ego leading up towards his demise was quite a trip in its own right. What a great way to end the first half of this year's outings.
I can't wait to see the Sir Handel and Edward stories next year, as Edward is one that barely get much backstories for.
An impressive story. I'm happy for what happened to Toby and Henrietta involving the tramway. As for Roger, talk about learning your lesson the hard way
Kaiba!
As tragic as it was for Roger, him being scrapped was probably the best outcome. The manager probably had thousands of dollars worth cargo that was destroyed that he needed to pay off, and fixing up a tram engine in Roger’s condition would probably cost somewhere in the millions. That and Roger being in so much pain, he probably wanted to be scrapped anyway.
This was one chilling story. It's nice to have a story involving Toby's life before Sodor with his brothers. And that image of Roger... Whoa... It is a really well captured picture.
What I find disturbing about that shot is how his eyes are wide open. It makes me wonder if he died instantly when he was crushed or was still conscious and slowly dying, unable to form words or even make a sound
A terrifying yet interesting horror story!
It's great to hear another story about Toby's younger days at Great Yarmouth Harbour on the LNER with other members of his class (and of course the J70 trams are unique in design) and how he became the main engine of the now defunct tramway in East Anglia alongside Henrietta. As for Roger, I will admit he was very arrogant despite being older than Toby as well (which reminded me of 89 from Gordon & the Ghost) but seeing that illustration of him being destroyed by the crane (since he was made of wood and never really got the experience he had in growth) made me horrified along with that illustration that followed the story a bit and it did remind me of Godred's fate as they are both similar characters.
Still, I really enjoyed it for how it really is.
Rogers fate is also similar to Toby's death in Sodor Fallout
Horrific
Great story. It's hard to not to feel pity for Roger in his wrecked state, even though he brought it on himself. I only hope his cognizance was completely gone when he was being scrapped.
Hello all. Thank you to those who attended the premiere. Hope you enjoyed this and that it wasn't too scarring for you all.
Just also wanted to say that this only marks the end of the first half of HOTR4. The series isn't over just yet. three more videos are in the making and planned for release in the following year.
Happy Halloween!
I’ve got an idea for HOTR5 and beyond: you could do a single fan-submitted story each year
whats the next story
and its not scary
Do you think there will be a HOTR5 or not ? Narrow Gauge
@@juicerj1430 It didn't have to be scary y'know.
Even though it covered some mature themes, it was still a nice story.
This story is indeed tragic and creepy in a way. Nice of you to make your own interpretation of Toby's Past. We could use more stories centering around a certain character's past like Toby and Duck. We look forward to the other half of your last stories for your last HOTR series. Have a Happy Halloween!
A story that shows the past of one of the oldest and wisest engines on the island of sodor. Great episode that shows how Toby and Henrietta became the great duo they are now and how Toby came to be on his old line. This story reminds me of Broken wings from last years HOR III, and also shows that the managers have the power to take the engines as easily as buying them.
It's notable that the Manager immediately had Toby reassigned before they got to work scrapping what was left of Roger... Implying that he didn't want Toby to witness the scrapping of his brother.
Let’s be honest, he was doing Toby a favour by doing that….. if someone had to scoop together the remains of a worker who got into a horrific accident, you wouldn’t want any family there to see what become of their kin.
This is a good story about Toby's past. I even like his relationship with Henrietta. Liz did a good job voicing her.
The scariest part of this whole thing is the fade to black. The last thing you see is Roger's sad, almost lifeless eyes, knowing full well what fate lay ahead of him.
Been a very long time since I've visited the land called Sodor; with it in the hands of the fans now it's more alive than ever save the Awdry age, and no longer shackled by writing intended for two year olds. Good horror in this world is hard to come by due to the inherent absurdities it operates on, and far too often writers struggle with going too far into the ridiculous or supernatural. Here we have the perfect balance, and filling in gaps in two beloved character's history to boot. I've been experimenting with modifying old and damaged ERTL models recently; I think I've found a use for my spare tram...
I've literally started customising my spare, Toby. I've called the spare tram Zac. He has blue paint and no number at the moment
This story was very high quality, the cast did wonderful and hearing Neil narrating nearly made me fall off the rails with joy. I also love how this tied in Toby and Henrietta’s story of how they came to East Anglea. Very well done !!
this story was amazing, i never knew one of toby's brothers would be so arrogant when toby used to work at a harbor with few of his brothers, and in the end Roger's judgement got the better of him after an incident with one of the cranes. to be honest after the incident he was already dead by the time he was been sent in the back of the goods sheds. regardless you and the others especially the artist SeaSwine9 did a marvelous job on this story.
Holy shit... this was dark. I know Rodger was bad body deserves this. It certainly sent chills down my spine especially as we were building up to it
Shame I couldn't make it in time for the premier, but I will say that I enjoy this story just as much I enjoyed the past few stories of the HOTR series. I'd excepted that this sort of tragedy would befall on Roger.
I cannot wait to see the final three stories, next year. I hope they will be truly exciting and terrifying as the last few ones I saw, years past! Happy Halloween to you! 🎃
Loved it, great work.
Story Idea: An engine that's so reckless, they pass a red signal intentionally just to prove a point only for it to be their fatal mistake.
but it is essentialy this story
Omg this is so outstanding you've done it again,Sea made very good illustrations for this hotr original,Still funny how Roger was still alive after that accident as he looked too far gone to be alive
That was quite the tale and man it was a great one. Tis a shame I wasn't there for the release date. It's very interesting to get a fictional inside look into Toby's brothers, especially Roger. Those Illustrations were (Chef's kiss) really well done.
That’s some bangin artwork, I’m gonna hop on the bandwagon and say that I agree that we need more stories about Toby in his youth, and this was the perfect way to lay the pavement
A story from Toby's younger years working at Great Yarmouth? A story about one of his brothers interesting
I have the feeling that Roger suffered the sentient machine equivalent of Permanent Brain Damage.
Toby's brother was name is Roger.
In 1942, the crate suddenly fell into Roger. His roof bend down and his whole body was crushed and his boiler was completely destroyed after his crew jumped out. However, Roger was finally scrapped.
A brilliant story all round, good story, creepy plot and a very sinister end, perfect.
Normally, if engine has a accident in your stories, we don't see their condition after it, they are audio stories after all.
It was shocking to see crushed Roger, but he deserved it. Seaswine9 did an amazing work on ilustrations in this video.
I can imagine Roger having a different sounding bell that’s a bit more…klangy for lack of a better word. Like it’s not a cute little “ting-a-ling” noise, but more of a harsher tone.
Like a church bell but higher pitch.
@@leewooboi Exactly! Just couldn’t think of the words.
The first three stories have been really good, I can’t wait for the next three, hopefully they come out soon
A perfect mixture of awdry style writing with an absolutely haunting twist thrown in. Quite possibly the best Horror esq TTTe story I’ve ever seen. An absolute 10/10
My goodness, Joe. That was... FANTASTIC! That was just an amazing story, and kudos to the artist! The illustrations were just so good, but most of all, the voices! Boy, were they fantastic. Liz's Henrietta's voice is the best voice I've heard from her yet, and it sounds like your audio's getting better. Though... I think the narrator was a little off in a few areas. Kinda sounded like he rushed a few lines, but at the same time, his narration reminded me of Salty's storytelling in a good way.
Looking forward to the other half next year. In the meantime, take care!
I wonder if Roger ever haunted the tramway, either to apologize to toby, or out of envy because toby was chosen to run "his" tramway.
This is a brilliant story. It's rare that a story tells about Toby's past. And it was satisfying to see Roger getting his just desserts for his arrogance attitude and pride.
the fact roger still had a little bit of life in him, despite him literally at the brink of death, is kind of terrifying
This could be part of a potential RWS book named "Harbourside Tram Engines"
Love this so much; you have no idea! Absolutely loved how grim and gritty the artstyle for the pictures is! Keep up the great work, Joe!
it seems I got two of my 3 guesses for the HOTR stories! ( I had guessed the stories would be: Scrap, Ffarquhar, and toby's old line)
Oh man. Poor Roger. An engine put in a vegetative state, not being able to move or speak truly is a horrifying fate to think about. A well written story Narrow Gauge!
This was amazing I’m looking forward to stories like this in the future
Served Roger right for ignoring danger. He had a chance to change, but he sealed his own fate.
Pride cometh before the fall. I wonder why Toby didn't tell this story to younger engines about being overconfident. And at the end he could say 'and that is the tragic tale of roger'.
Really love your stories that add some darkness and depth to the Thomas and friends lore
Wow. That was so amazing, I cant even describe it. Keep up the good work!
This feels like a rws story
I feel like the rest of Toby’s scrapped siblings with the exception of Roger, watch over him!
Roger isn't the only one to blame for the accident his crew should've stopped him immediately instead of running away and leaving Roger completely helpless
Agreed.
Yay another spooky story can’t wait and keep up the good work
Holy moly this was dark! I love it! Great job!
Ngl Rogers story reminded me a lot of GodReds from the culdee fell railway. Where an engine is boastful, rude and careless and gets in a huge disaster damaging them beyond repair.
This is an awesome story Joe! Excellent work! 👍:D
Loved it! It's always great to see fans expand on obscure characters. Happy Halloween! 🎃😊
This may take long to make but each year I keep loving it and it keeps getting better, keep up the amazing work! Look forward to the future videos 👍
It was great! Truely well done!
This was a very chilly story . Great job
Amazing work
I love this Toby voice
Great story. Its so cool there was one about Toby.
This was absolutely amazing this is one of those not the best Thomas & Friends Halloween fan special all day
Well that was dark! This is probally my favourite out of all the stories this year, Great Job Man! I also noticed that Roger has black cowcatchers and white buffers, the opposite of Toby's, pretty clever not gonna lie!
Wow, I imagine Toby telling this tragic story about Roger to Thomas and Percy one day at his new home on Thomas’ Branch Line. I wonder how the two little tank engines would react to this story. 😔🚂🛤
This story was amazing!! Plus, the art looks awesome! The way Roger went out was gruesome to say the least. It's almost the same as being cut in half.
Roger?
“Who ate all the Pecan Sandies?”
*American Dad reference*
What’s sandies?
I Can't wait for the next installment of horror on the Rails.
Another excellent story
Happy Halloween!
Really excited for this!
Narrator: It was a spooky Halloween night at Tidmouth Sheds, and all the engines took turns telling ghost stories. Finally, it was Toby's turn.
Thomas: Tell it. Go on, it won't hurt.
Toby: I don't know if I should.
Percy: It's up to you, Toby. It is scary.
Henry: Are you going to tell the story or not?
Narrator: Toby felt like his cowcacthers were shaking with fear.
Donald and Douglas: Come on!
Toby: Well, alright. Here it goes. Many years ago, there was a tram engine who worked on a tramway far away from London. He never pulled a train, or should I say, never lived long enough to be given a train.
Love the art
Excellent Story Roger's fate was similar to Godred's fate in a way
Very well done
Pride cometh before the fall
This is GREAT
First Steam Engine, then Timothy and now one of Toby's late brothers? What is it with Thomas, Toby, Duck and their classmates?
Plus the Faceless Engine is two of Edwards brothers and Kingdom from ButterflyCoffees Newton About Saga and Montague from Tobias and the Half Pariah that's two more of Ducks brothers
@@JohntheLNERP2 1: Kingdom is not Duck's brother, he's a Buffalo Tank Engine. 2: Montague is basically Duck in an alternate universe. And 3: I don't know what the hell you're talking.
@@swag-a-dellaman6555 1 I'm talking about the exact same thing as you which is how certain engines siblings are plain evil 2 Kingdom IS a Pannier both the illustrations in No Rest For The Weary and Kingdom Come as well as the amount of times ButterflyCoffee says he's a Pannier proves he is one and 3 I'm talking about Optimus Prime 2471s version of Tobias and the Half Pariah in his channel Duck and the evil Montague are 2 completely different Panniers
@@JohntheLNERP2 Kingdom is a Pannier Tank, but he's not a 57xx. His kind came before Duck was drawn or even thought of.
Oh
So spooky! I loved it. I was gonna leave when I saw that card but worth it eh!
I wasn't expecting to see the dead Rodger picture
@@LMS5935 me too. Shocked me
"Roger's boiler was destroyed, so there was little life in him."
The scrappers payed to scrap roger: his crushed boiler can give black water a run for its money
Good Work With The Video, And Happy Halloween.
That’s a good story right there
Your drainw is amazing.
Roger,s own pride will be he,s downfall
Very nice!
I might have a guess..., that what Toby Saw could only mean what became of Roger: ..., ..., ..Scrap... All that could be salvaged from him no doubt to be used for the other Tram Engines.
That wasn’t scary but I think it’s the best episode yet well done all of u
8:45 damn, like Stanley, Smudger, Godred and Bulstrode.
And this is why you pat attention to instructions kids.
That Picture Of Roger Is Unsettling
Well not bad happy Halloween 👍😎
The bleeding nose was a nice touch
Nice video mate, shame I didn't see the premiere. Nevermind, best wishes. 👍
You know, Roger somewhat reminds me of Scruffy
Both were cocky A-holes who got their well deserved karma but died, (if u don’t count Scruffy still being alive in the show).
I would love to see an interaction between the two. On one hand, I feel like they would be the only true friend for each other while in the other, they would hate each other’s nonexistent guts.
Very cool story. I'm surprised wilbert for make a railway series story about the other j70's Toby used to work with before he came to sodor.
Basically what happened to Roger happened to Godred in 'Bad Look Out'. Of course, it depends how the latter story gets adapted. According to ilovetrains323 Godred's accident wasn't severe enough to cause him to get scrapped.
RIP Roger, even though you WERE a hubristic train. I hope other engines like James, Gordon, Sir Handel and Duncan take a leaf out of your book. Toby should've told them about you.
This is basically a more horrific version of the story of Godred.
one of the best in a long long time....
I honestly wish this was a story toby was telling to Mavis or someone
i love the sudden horror that happends to rodger
The first thing a young engine learns.
I'm guessing having your roof cave in is like breaking your back
