  • Thanks to TheRealXboxNerd for narrating this! This is going to be the last one I do for at least a month or two but I will do more in the future! Given the extreme ridiculous nature of the episode, this is probably the most different from the source material!
    Note: Although children can watch this, they are not the intended audience. The intended audience are adult fans who grew up with the show for nostalgic purposes.

    I know it’s a little detail, but I do like how you addressed what I personally considered the biggest plot hole of the original episode- why on earth Thomas would want to “go as fast as Gordon” when in the first episode, he did and said he never wanted to do it again.
    That simple line of “just once, and without being stuck to the back of Gordon’s train” was the simple fix it needed; thank you

    At first, I saw this was an adaption of a TV episode and thought "Oh, God, not another remake with either the original or a redub of the original audio set to a Train Sim remake.." but then I saw it was a "REALISTIC Adaptation" and thought "Great, a remake/adaption that actually makes sense out of HIT/Mattel's seemingly baffling plots and plot devices!"
    Like, for instance, the TV episode NEVER explains as to WHY there is a jet engine on Sodor when the majority of Transport is Steam/Diesel Locomotion and why was Thomas able to stay on the tracks when the jet was supposedly making him achieve speeds that would realistically have him flying off at the first sharp bend?!

    The New York Central Railroad actually built a jet powered train in 1966 called the M-497 or "Black Beetle" by taking a Budd RDC-3 , streamlining the front and put 2 GE J47-19 jet engines on it. They tested it on the line between Butler, Indiana and Stryker, Ohio where it reached a top speed of 183.68 mph. However despite success the NYC didn't consider it commercially viable as it would soon merge with the Pennsylvania Railroad in 1968 which itself was involved in the development of the Metroliner that was being funded by the U.S Department of Transportation.
