I like that you're looking into obscure RWS characters from other railways and their real life counterparts; RWS lore is surprisingly deep and worth showcasing.
Thanks, yeah I find it interesting 🙂
My head-canon for 47287 follows the same history as real life and the books until her withdrawal in 1964. Instead of being scrapped, The Fat Controller purchased her to be the Barrow station pilot for the NWR until 1967 when Duck was given his branch line. 47287 was then transferred to Tidmouth to become the new station pilot where she still works to this day.
Very good!
These videos has earned you an instant subscription from me. Can’t wait to see what you have planned for future, especially with Diesel as I’ve been wondering what number he would’ve been myself!
Thank you, Diesel is coming next!
@@sodorislandmodels6332 Splendid! :D
Same
🙂
Can't wait to know which real life Class 08 Devious Diesel was
Cheers, hopefully I'll have the video out before the weekend
The episode on stepney will be like 5 seconds long
Haha, so true
@@sodorislandmodels6332 Could do it as April fools haha
Good idea!
Just found this after watching your video on Diesel. Good stuff. Subscribed.
I’ve always had a soft spot for Jinty having owned a Triang 47606 since I was about 5. She’s been repainted several times and lightly detailed. She now has an Airfix 1001 5 pole motor and is still a firm favorite after 52 years in service. The Railway series and the Triang R52 must be what made the Jinty so popular.
Thanks very much, I also used to have a Triang 47606 🙂
weve heard of finding nemo, and its bootleg finding jesus, now get ready for... FINDING JINTY
😁
THIS is the original finding some guy
@@annanowak2868 pixar stole this video and made it fish smh
@@mikewellsworth5477 I know
AHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
Would Bolwer, Spamcan and Old-Stuck-Up be covered? I heard that the real-life members of Bowler's and Stuck-Up's class with their actual numbers the characters have got scrapped and the Thomas wikia actually catograises them as 'scrapped engines'.
Yeah they'll be covered at some point
I did not expect to find out who Jinty was in real life today.
🙂
Nice new video today .Got my support.
Thanks!!
Brilliant! Keep up the good work, I have also subscribed!
Thanks!
I think you deserve a medal for this!
Haha, thanks!
Great video!
Thank you!
Excellent research on this character!
Thank you
this is amazing!
Thanks!
This just popped up in my recommended, and it’s funny as I just bough one of Jinty’s brother’s 47313 in N scale few days.
Very nice!
2,16k subs already? christ man, congrats
Cheers :D
Looks like we now know what the Jinty is... How unfortunate... Though if I were to include him in my Take of the NWR, I'd have Sir Topham Hatt learn of Jinty's withdrawal and buy him for his Railway, to later replace Duck as Tidmouth Station Pilot in 1967. Now that..., would be something good to write about!
I think it's a popular idea yeah! :)
@@sodorislandmodels6332 It makes sense that as Jinty was withdrawn by British Railways around the time of Arlesburgh Harbour being under construction, it's likely he was hired or bought to assist with building the new harbour and renovation of the branch from Tidmouth. This makes sense as Duck is still the station pilot in Main Line Engines (set in 1965) and no pilot engines are seen in subsequent books although Thomas and Percy have been known to visit the harbour and shunt trucks in between their booked trains. In my head canon Tidmouth Harbour owns a USA tank and later a Class 07 diesel. When the diesel shunter takes over at the harbour, the USA tank is bought by the NWR...
Yeah nice
Watching this video again.
I like Jinty he's neat.
Good engine 👍🏼
Well this is Canon now
🙂
@@sodorislandmodels6332 I don’t think Jinty was not scrapped I think he was most likely preserved and was probably later bought by the NWR
Maybe, I've just gone by what happened to the real loco
@@sodorislandmodels6332 So basically he would’ve most likely have been saved by Sir Topham Hatt in my head canon
@@JosephRailwayStudios2000 notice how I didn't say headcanon I said CANON
It’s said Sixteen was preserved by preservationists in the Midlands. Maybe Jinty along with Pug, the Big City Engine, and even D199 and Old Stuck Up were preserved at the same place Sixteen was (it doesn’t have to be a real place, it could just be a made up one).
I'll be looking into em all, either way 🙂
The fact that 4 Jintys were allocated to Barrow from 1948-1956 means you could say the tank engines from Percy Takes The Plunge could’ve been them, with Jinty being one of the engines themselves listening to Percy’s story (Pug might’ve been there outside the picture listening too). Imagine if sometime after Oliver’s arrival someone like Percy or BoCo went to Barrow to save Jinty Pug and the other shunters and got them jobs all over the NWR like shunting at Tidmouth and Vicarstown (or Barrow like staying at their home place) and on Thomas and Edward’s branchlines.
Maybe
@@sodorislandmodels6332 Pug could’ve been 47001 or 47002 due to how they were allocated close to Barrow in Furness (I’m going with the former number) at the time of TEFE. As for the Big City Engine, for starters I think it would make sense for them to be a Patriot allocated anywhere along the East Coast Main Line due to it going to Euston. And secondly, since they had no nameplate illustrated they could’ve easily been an unnamed Patriot instead of a named one. 45508 was given a stovepipe chimney right in 1956 so it’s cancelled out and also 45528 and 45545 who were unnamed before were some of the Patriots that were rebuilt, leaving 9 other unnamed Patriots the BCE could be. From what I’ve seen 45550 was allocated closest to Barrow in Furness at Preston (which is right on the East Coast Main Line) at the time of Gordon Goes Foreign so the Big City Engine could’ve been it. If you wanted them be a named Patriot then at the time of Gordon Goes Foreign there was 45518. Bradshaw which was allocated the closest to Barrow in Furness then out of all the other named unrebuilt Patriots right at Preston too just like 45550 so Big City Engine could’ve also been 45518. Bradshaw.
The Derailed Engine also seems like they could be a Princess Royal due to the lack of smoke deflectors and while some were allocated close to Barrow at the time it’s hard to tell which one (I think a Jubilee would be too small and it doesn’t seem fitting one would be taking an express all the way from Barrow in Furness to St. Pancras. NicTrain123 also said on Twitter he thinks the engine Duck almost crashed into looks like an LNER A4 when looking close up with it’s front sloping downwards but we wouldn’t know which one for sure (RWS Spencer anyone), could’ve been called over to Sodor for some rail excursion all the way from the North Eastern Region or something.
Nice work
@@sodorislandmodels6332 Thank you
No worries
In my headcannon, Jinty is numbered #47281 (As the TTTE wikia mentions he is particularly one of the 1924-1925 batchess & his basis' hornby model bares that number with the BR lion crest logo).
Cool
Fun fact: the f3 jinty is still in Service
Niceee
Ooh, looking forward to seeing Duck & Oliver's videos! :D
Thanks, I need to do a bit more work on them but they're coming along!
@@sodorislandmodels6332 😁.
🙂
So is RL Jinty is scrapped?
Guess so😞rip 🕊🪦
I'm afraid so
🪦
The illustrations look like the Tri-ang 00 gauge model.
Yeah they do a bit
Next: what Black 5 Henry would have been if he hadn't been diverted to the North Western Railway 😁
It will be a while but I do want to look at Henry at some point!
It always pains me inside when hearing a piece of machinery that served us for so long, but then scrapped so easily as if they were nothing.
I know, poor Jinty
Jinty is literally my favourite Thomas character
Nice :)
Reminder that since Jinty is a traditionally feminine name, Jinty may have been the first female steam engine in the Railway Series.
Could be, but not confirmed 🙂
@@sodorislandmodels6332 I don't think there's any way it could be confirmed.
Yes
your trains are So satisfying
Thanks :)
Will you look into engines before coming to sodor (AKA Caledoiain Railway/London, Midland & Scottish Railway Donald/Douglas)
Yes, I plan to 🙂
@@sodorislandmodels6332 thxthxthx
🙂
Will you be doing one for Pug as well?
At some point, yes
Curious, which sources did you use?
Any and all I could get my hands on! All my books are elsewhere at the moment, but I had a few lms books which were very helpful :)
Jinty was built in 1924 it says it on Wikipedia meaning he was apart of the 42700 batch that came in 1924 and 1925 not the 47400 batch of 1926 so basically using Jinty with 47406 is inaccurate in RWS terms.
True
I know there scrapped because of desolation
The jinty we know is 47605 that's what people called him
Sorry, not sure what that is
Would jinty number be in the 47200 range. It does say he was built in 1924 or 1925 in the wiki
They were built in 24
@@sodorislandmodels6332 oh.
👍🏼
what does pugs face look like in the railway series
We don't know, fun one to imagine though :)
More more more more more more more more more more more more more more
More will come :D
Can you give link to music?
It's mine, look at my other videos 🙂
Jinty wasn’t actually scrapped I heard on the wiki that one of these type of tank engines was actually preserved so that means Jinty is still around today if one of the Jinty’s where are preserved that had to be jinty so he wasn’t scrapped
I don't know about that
A few 3f jinties survived yes, but not THE jinty because 47287 was scrapped
Yeah
Are you going to do the other five
I'll certainly look into as many RWS characters as I can, but they're not high up my list right now.
Hmm will you do jim
Ti and albert
Tim I mean lol
@@Redstudio_production I believe they don't exist in real life
The one disliker was henry
Hahah!
@@sodorislandmodels6332 get it? Because of percy takes the plunge?
I get it
I know this doesn't matter to the video or anything, but in reality, the stories never mention if Jinty is Male or Female, we just assume that there male due to the only illustration showing there face, so that means, as I consider the very least, jinty is female, and "Jinty" is a nickname for a more longer name.
I didn't use gendered pronouns for Jinty as it's never said if they're male or female - if a he or she slipped out it was unintended 🙂
One can reasonably infer Jinty is male, as all RWS steam engines were. The only female characters on the railways in the books were the coaches, Daisy, and Mavis.
Yeah, it's reasonable and my guess if Jinty is male, but unconfirmed, so I chose to go with the ungendered pronouns for this video 🙂
@@MrJoeyWheeler What about Duchess of Hamilton?
@@MrJoeyWheeler Pip and Emma as well!
Is Jinty’s real number 47287 still existing?!
So in other words The real Jinty was scrapped?! 😱
They were 😕
@@sodorislandmodels6332 I hate those punks for scrapping steam engines!
@@javielalvarez5459 they have to it was required sometimes you can't grow too attached to a vehicle
@Joshua W56 and also all Mainline steam locomotives will required to be scrapped by 1968 and considering that he's a tank engine didn't really help because there's no need to keep him because he was replaced by diesel shunters
Ironic that his made up friend is his new look
Haha, isn't it!
find wilbert the forest engine, bet you cant
Ha, I've actually got a little bit on him, not enough for a video yet though!
@@sodorislandmodels6332 he does realize that video will be extremely short as all the information on what Wilbert a real-life locomotive is already out there
@@LMS5935 thats the joke henry recolor
@@mikewellsworth5477 I think it's the other way around Henry is a recolor of me
@@LMS5935 no hes è
How about Pug?? Can you dk pug next and pin and the video plss.
I will get round to Pug when I have more on them 🙂
Would you like to help me with my Thomas and Friends series
Thanks, but I'm concentrating on my own stuff for a bit. Best of luck!
Jinty is dead?:(
Sorry to be the bearer of bad news!
@@sodorislandmodels6332 Someone should do a story when percy finds out that Jinty and Pug are Dead.
Haha
Me?
