"You can take your stupid van back then"
*THUD*
*CRASH*
*SMASH*
"NOOOOOOOOOO"
I guess there really were vases in there 😂😂😂😂😂

So crazy that this was made in Trainz 09. Truly shows it doesn't matter what game you film in. It's the style you film it.
I use Trainz 09. Though not anymore since my PC is trash and some grass textures got corrupted.
Hoping to get a new PC someday so I can use Trainz 19.
wouldn't it be 12?
@@nickunplugged9791 In the credits it says he used Trainz 2009.
@@Damocles178 wait trainz 12 models work in 09?
huh, neat
Thank you!
Whenever Rory is on screen it just brightens everyone’s day
(Insert Ice Cream Jingle Here)
Marvelous, flying dialogue here! Love the scene when Brad and Duck are hamming it as they try to sell the 'urgency' of their trains to Thomas, but both are so melodramatic about it. Arri's slow and few words approach is hilarious as well.
Thank you! It was a lot of fun to write, especially envisioning Brad and Duck's meeting earlier to go over their "script" and lines.
Thomas: "Uh, guys... maybe you stop standing around shushing each-other and let me do my work..."
This was well worth the wait man! The part we’re Brad and Duck are trying to do their best to fool Thomas is just so funny. You guys did great work.
Had to keep a lid on the story details for years, but super glad to finally have this out and enjoyed by you!
Really enjoyed this, the humour and music especially!
Also, liked the REO Speedwagon reference ;D
Glad you enjoyed it! Kristian really did a great job with the music!
An Episode Filled With Nostalgia, Humor but most of all Amazing Music
I absolutely loved how you incorporated Rory into this episode, his role was so cute and I think that we always need more of him. This really was a blast to watch and I’m sure it must have been a pain to make but In the end you brought out a beautiful little comedy that towers over the new CGI series, I think it was a nice touch to see odd rolling stock with little voice rolls in this series of yours. Hope your doing safe in COVID-19 & have a good one
P.S-I can’t wait to see the BTS for this
I'd been wanting to bring Rory into my "world" for a long time! I'm very glad you enjoyed this. :)
Great to see this out Eric - love the switch of Brad and Duck plotting against Thomas (with a very well drawn out plan!) A lot of fun with this story, I really enjoyed it
So glad you enjoyed it Aiden! Thank you!
I don’t know what’s harder to believe:
That Thomas fell for that trick or how amazing this episode is? 😁
Thank you! So happy you enjoyed!
Wonderful story, Eric! Filled with humor around every corner! I love how you switched it up and made it Brad and Duck plotting against Thomas! Kristian's score makes it all the better, and parts like Brad's painful acting when telling Thomas about Rory made it all the better. I really enjoyed it, and keep it up!
Glad you enjoyed! It was a fun scene to perform!
Rory didn't desert this treatment.
NWR58 but it sure was a scoop to remember him.
Rory is lovable! He just _melts_ my heart!
NWR58 I agree
Don’t you mean TREATment?
Rory is just the CHERRY on top of the ice cream cone
“Don’t shush me shush you!” Has to be my favorite line
An absolutely lovely story! I especially love how the lack of narration helps to better highlight the interaction of the characters! Keep up the good work my man! Looking forward to what you have in store down the line!
Thanks Jonah! The feedback from this video along with the help recently provided to a few others has also got me itching for the next project. :)
After watching this, it was a very good story. Duck and Brad playing a trick on Thomas, I loved the bit where Rory went flying through the air :) .
Glad you enjoyed it!
This is amazing, and def worth the wait! Many of your episodes (this one, Forethought, etc.) remind me of what would’ve happened if Awdry’s stories were longer. You know how to make the most awkward situations hilarious
Thank you for your comment! Glad you enjoy!
I loved this. This is amazing. Great job to everyone involved
Thank you!
@@CookieMonster4Sael your welcome my friend
This is hands down just absolutely brilliant - 114/10 for sure.
I always love seeing your works because they tower well and truly over the CGI series and I think are the perfect blend of the RWS/ERS and the television show.
You work is truly amazing and I can’t wait to hopefully see more brilliant things from you in the future.
Also, this had me in stitches the entire time, especially the scribbled-out plan: that was absolute gold XD
Thank you Hugh. I am grateful for your comments and glad you enjoyed!
Great one! I love how you even added the SpongeBob Tomfoolery song in the Thomas Style!
Thx!
Bah, who needs sleep when you have this masterpiece! A new adventure, and even a new type of rolling stock, is just what I needed to pull myself out of this 2020 funk.
This is real quality work, and leagues better than what Mattel is chucking out as "canon". Thank you for further proving that fan content can be superior to "legit" content.
I completely agree with you
Thank you for saying so! So happy you enjoyed!
Engine-basis-wise, Brad is just male Rosie.
This was so fun to watch, I cracked up quite a bit throughout, and as many have, really worth the wait. Fantastic job as always! Can't wait for your next video.
Yay, thank you! Glad you enjoyed!
Definitely worth the wait!
Amazing 10/10!
Glad you think so Carson! Thank you!
I love this! Too hilarious! Excellent work! :D
Thank you!
9:07 I love ducks evil little grin here. Face tracking can create some great expressions
I haven't watched it quite yet, but.....
YES YES YES YES YES ALL OF THE YES N THE WORLD YES
Yes!
Oof. Duck tries to help with Brad's prank, but he starts to sound like a Season 12 narration! 👍
That was excellent! Great to see Rory again too!
Thank you! Glad you enjoyed!
I just want Rory's theme by itself, I love the theme!
Oh, that was just hilarious! And poor Rory... LOL
14:33 🤣🤣🤣🤣 idk why I find that hilarious
Are we gonna ignore how beautiful that route is
We absolutely cannot ignore this. Cam Jones did a marvelous job!
Indeed!
Absolutely Brilliant!! Well done! Just love the comedy in this, Duck and Brad make a great double act!
Thank you!
Rorey be like "do you believe in gravity?"
Ok, DIO.
Rory is the best Thomas OC ever
Even though times like these
The community is still strong
Great job! I loved the writing, the animation, the music, and Rory :)
Thank you so much!
This is an awesome story Eric! Excellent work to you and everyone involved! :D
Thanks a ton!
That Brad model sure is nice to look at even now. Hard to believe you guys made it almost 10 years ago~
He sure is! Glad you enjoyed!
@@CookieMonster4Sael So am I. I found the lame puns they did in here too funny. They gave Charlie a run for his money lol.
Wow, I just got what Arri was a reference to. Good job on that.
I'm very surprised you done this in TS2009 instead of T:ANE or TRS19. You did great working with '09.
This was a great video. Actually got me to laugh quite a bit, especially with the cheekiness. It has that Railway Series vibe while standing out as its own thing, and I absolutely love that. It's a bit of a blue moon thing in my opinion. I love Rory's role as well; he was rather adorable in this. Brought some interesting feels.
Honestly, I don't think I've ever seen a van with as low a floor as Arri. Only such freight cars I've seen with low centers are container cars and depressed center flats such as used by GWR and ConRail. Does he happen to have a basis or is he freelanced?
Thank you RailLord for your comment! It makes my day to hear that not only did you enjoy it, but my video also brought you some laughs.
Arri is based on an LTSR vacuum cleaning van. Of course, for this he's be repurposed to haul some very precious cargo, instead.
Such a GREAT story!
So many little bits of humor that there are too many to list!
I'll just mention one at 3:10 Is that a Thomas version of a Spongebob theme? LOL
Also, I think I remember seeing the route/set of Brad and Duck tricking Thomas on a Stream a year or two ago; I believe it was called something like "Coffeetown" or "Caughytown."
Thank you Bram for your comment! I am so happy that you enjoyed. The set was supposed to be "Anywhere, Sodor" but I do believe the yard was called something like that on a stream -- Good memory!
Gravity that’s why and great video
Every time I hear that van say “SLOW!!!” Or “GO SLOW!!!” or even “SLOWER!!!” And that “YEAH!” In the hill scene, makes me laugh.
Screw sleeping I’m watching this
"Honestly, how did you even manage that?"
"Gravity" or to quote rory even more "Graviteh."
“Duck? Brad? Rory!”
“Duck?”
“Brad?”
“Roreh!”
I keep on laughing every time the R.E.O van talked for some reason
Edit: i really want the r.e.o van to be in another video btw
That wagon right at the beginning being fly shunted. What type of wagon is it because it looks like a small well wagon/van.
That is a good question
i really love all the truck characters you use, bronco was adorable, and arry (is it?) is a riot.
Oooooooh this is so good! This really shows thomas’ true cheeky character! Then again, Duck and Brad are so funny too!!!
R.E. The only truck on Sodor who *actually* prefers to go slow.
Siren, dude your videos are always a gem. Also Brad and Duck's dialogue during the convincing scene sound like one of those 8-bit video games with really bad voice acting and I Love it!
Thanks a ton!
I loved every bit of banter kneaded into this.
This was utterly fantastic! It was a great watch indeed!
Thank you! Really happy you enjoyed!
This should be an episode on season 12
I did not expect this to be in my subscribed tab, but I'm so happy to see a new video from you
Bill and been are like how care you steal our stick
😱 omg you made the mouths move I have to learn how to do this type of editing!!
You can do it!
“It’s been 84 years”
They pulled alot of " planks"
this was hilarious. Another one of those fabulously unique stories.
Thank you! I am delighted that you enjoyed!
17:04 So he was carrying vases.
Geez That prank went even wrong by not checking the inside of the van if he's carrying something. Great job Duck.
This was amazing 👏🏽👏🏽
Thank you!
Love this! It's pure gold! 10/10!
Glad you enjoyed!
Love James reaction
I have just two words "ice cream" 🍦lol
5:06 feels like bloopers from a thomas pc game with the inflections.
The legend has returned
Hahaha thank you!!!
SireEmEye your welcome my friend
Awesome!
Thanks!
@@CookieMonster4Sael You're welcome!
love how thomas is such an idiot here and not noticing that everyone is acting weird
12:16
That part....I laughed so hard
You meant 12:15
Jared Loveridge yes
Rory, my number 1 star.
Best video I've seen
amazing work as usual eric :)
Thank you so much!
i guess thomas got his just desserts hahaha get it?
This was a good episode
Glad you enjoyed!
A fantastic episode! I’m a bit curious as to what R.E. is supposed to be, or the inspiration for him at least.
Glad you enjoyed! Camscott designed him on an LTSR vacuum cleaning van.
This was wonderful
Rory: about to fall from a dangerous bend
also Rory: Plays ice cream music*
Duck?!
Brad!?
Roreh!!
Honestly, I didn’t expect to see an ice cream truck In a tree. That was unbeleafable.
This was AWESOME!
Congrats you just gained a sub from me!
I'll have a strawberry banana split. XD
if only i had that thomas model
wow this was good
Glad you enjoyed!
Ari is the best part of the whole video
So, what era of the show does your series take place in? I thought it was RWS with the TVS versions of the charcters but I seen Stanley earlier in the video.
This may seem like a non-answer, but I intentionally try to keep the era and timeframe ambiguous, as I want these stories to feel like they can exist among everyone's own fondest memories of the television show.
Jesus Christ I LOVED THIS!!!!!!
Thank you!
Not really into these sorts videos but my God, me and my wife were pissing ourselves over Arri.
Please make a whole series just about Arri and his adventure.
So glad you enjoyed! Thank you!
amazing work
Oh my god so many puns
Love this m8
Thank you!
DUCK?
BRAD?
roreh!
ICE CREAM!!!!!!!! Lol
I like the Thomas model where did it come from?
dope
wow awesome and great job
Thank you! Cheers!
@@CookieMonster4Sael np
17:48 Hah! i get it!
So, what exactly is arie? He looks like a truck but he seems extremely heavy for a van carrying nothing. And how did he couple up to Thomas after uncoupling on the Hill? Anyway, great story. It's always great to see a video from you knowing how much time and effort you put into them and the fact that lots of different people worked on it makes it even better
Thank you! Glad you enjoyed!
Arri is based on a vacuum cleaning van and he's a mighty truck. He was able to snap away from Thomas at the crest, but thankfully a small decline brought him back!
Oh I see:) Thanks
Great story i love rory
Thank you, glad you do!
Arri litteraly throwing tantrum he yells ice cream
