- WE HAVE A TRADITION
For the past 2 years I have released videos all about my Thomas headcanons so it’s only right that that I feature some of YOURS.
Music Playlist:
• Music I’ve used in videos
E2 Footage:

Hope you all enjoyed this years headcanon video
Also remember the code this time to be featured is PIANO

It’s not much, but I’ve always headcannoned that a majority of hit newbies were eventually relocated to work the great waterton branch. Molly and neville do any and all jobs needed, billy became the station pilot and Hank became the branch’s heavy goods engine.
Does a wrong assumption of characters of my 4 year old self had made counts as a headcannon?
Piano
I don't know if this is a hc but here
At one point the skr would have game nights but stopped due to Duncan getting salty if he doesn't win and when he does he gets all cocky and rubs it in Rusty's face. So they stopped hosting game nights. .
Piano! In my headcanon, Molly comes earlier to the Railway in 1915 she help build the railway & Emily came in 1895 she was one of the Wellsworth and Suddery Railway Engine's

In my headcannon, the Peel Godred branch is its own separate railway. Instead of it just going up to Killdane and Peel Godred, it starts at Balladwell (which has been moved to the southern coast of Sodor) to Harwick. Several lines including the Great Waterton Branch, Norramby Branch and Bluebell line have been added to the railway and engines like Molly, Murdoch, Arthur, Billy etc. work the line. Additionally, Ulfstead castle was never Ulfstead Castle but rather Peel Godred Castle. Within the walls of the castle there is a railway museum and demonstration line. Engines like Hank, Connor, Catlin, Stephen, Glynn, etc. stay here and in winter, the final train of Christmas is pulled by Hank from Tidmouth to Barrow and back again and it is called, "The Polar Express".
1st off, PIANO.
Second off...
Thomas is the living definition of a grandpa who looks old but does something that could possible end up damaging him beyond repair but ending up alive
YES
I love the idea of Thomas becoming kind of an old reckless/grumpy man in his old age
@@expressbean64
someone'd look at him like "you are gonna die" and thomas, who literally ended up doing cliff jumping for fun, would be like "adrenaline is my life support".
@@expressbean64That's very fitting for him
@AfterPartyGoer in the Great Race where Thomas jumped off the bridge... makes totally sense, the more you think of it, the more you amazed how his new crew still alive and already has their will together for their family.
🎹PIANO🎹
Diesel 10 is a class 42 warship. The real warships were numbered in the D800 range making Diesel 10’s true number D810. The real D810 was named Cockade.
My headcanon is that in 1972 when all the Warships were being scrapped Cockade avoided the cutter’s torch by being fitted with a claw and becoming an official scrapyard engine. He would have had to scrap his own brothers and sisters, and stripped himself of his name out of shame. He is now only known by his number.
Diesel 10 hates steam engines because now they’re often loved and protected by people while the diesels usually get treated badly. Nobody cares for them and they can easily be replaced by another should they break down. At least, that’s how he sees it (even though he’s still in use and two of his siblings are preserved)
Genius! Although, Diesel 10 would have been saved in September 26th, 1973 because that was when the real Cockade was cut up
My head cannon for the hit characters that appear once is that they hated their portrayal by the tvs so much that they forced the hit crew to stop using them
In my AU Molly is a LNER class B12 in 1923 her brother *Alfred* passed away at kanpford harbour from an explosion after that Molly suffered from depression she only had one other brother on sodor Molly was sent away in 1941 because she was Bombed. A replacment was bought in 1942 who might sound farmilar 87546 who was about the same size as Molly was brought back on sodor *he was a C1 Atlantic* in 1975 the Great Waterton and Arlesbrugh tramway *tobys old railway * was rediscovered by Oliver who crashed into a shed but in 1979 Thomas rediscovered great waterton so Topham looked at engines to by he found a green LNER B12 it was Molly topham II Bought molly who now works on the great waterton branchline along with Stanley Molly sometimes pulls the flying kipper aswell. Strawberry
Strawberry
Molly and Stanley is an awesome combo
Jesus your au sounds horrible for the engines
NOT READING ALAT🗣️🗣️🗣️
This is awful, Molly's actual basis was perfect. Why switch it to a B12? Molly is a 4-4-0, B12's are 4-6-0s. It makes no sense
🎹Piano🎹
My Diesel 10 in my headcanon wears a British Rail Police livery and works for the Sodor Search And Rescue Team
I could see that as a way of him trying to reform himself after TATMR
@@expressbean64can I just put piano from my headcanon from the last video and put some new ones here as well?
that is less bad than mine where is is basically a failed experiment for a track maintenance engine.
@@expressbean64that would in my opinion be a punishment from sir topham and pinchy is removed and given giant handcuffs instead 😂 it sounds out there but I love it
I’ve got two headcanons for Fearless Freddie: 1. He worked with Stuart and Falcon at the Sodor Aluminum Mines before the Thin Controller bought the two and renamed them Peter Sam and Sir Handel, respectively, leaving Freddie to be bought by another railway on the Mainland (until he’d have been bought as a new addition to the Blue Mountain Quarry). 2. The reason he was given the nickname, ’Fearless Freddie,’ is because he singlehandedly saved workmen from a landslide disaster in the mines around the time he worked there with Stuart and Falcon.
I’ve considered this and more for my own Thomas & Friends CZcams series, which I hope to get off the ground soon. I’d tell you more headcanons I came up with, but I’d run out of time to play the PIANO.
As a German, I can agree that Conrad sounds like a good name
As a bri’ish person,I can also agreee Conrad is a good name.
As someone named Conrad, I agree that this is a good name.
I agree
Piano.
My headcanon is for why Diesel 10 has his claw. Basically it's that he was designed as the tenth Diesel in a line of experimental Diesel maintenance engines.
Basically they took ten Class 42 Warships and modified them with scrap claws designed to pick up debris on the tracks, (like how we see in Calling all engines). After the modification was done the ten diesels were sent to a railway with Diesel 10 getting Sodor. This was for a test run to see if they worked. Though at first the classes seemed to be working very well. Due to the Diesel's prejudice against steam engines and the fact they had what is essentially a scrapper claw. They began to use it as a weapon against the Steam engines. This combined with the fact that it gave them a superiority complex meant that the engines and the works both did not like them very much.
However that was only one problem. The other problem was how costly the modification was meant that it was rejected and never went into mass production. Eventually the modified Class 42s save for Diesel 10 who Sir Topham Hatt mostly relegated to the scrap yard got decommissioned. Diesel 10 did not learn of this until much later and blamed the steam engines thinking that it was because people found them more popular. For that reason he set out on a crusade to find a way to destroy them all.
My second headcanon is actually something explained in a fanfiction I wrote on AO3. It's the reason Edward, Duke, Oliver, Donald, and Douglass don't appear in Thomas and the Magic railroad.
Starting off the reason Edward isn't there is because Sir Topham Hatt had taken him on Holiday as his personal train which is a common thing for him to do.
As for Duke, Oliver, Donald, and Douglass. The reason they were not seen is because they were elsewhere on Sodor. Duke and Oliver were working on the Little Western and Donald and Douglass were working up near the lock.
A third Headcanon I have is more for another AU I have which is that Lady isn't magic. It's just rumored she is. Though it is also implied that though she doesn't have magic. She does have mild psychic powers that manifest in the form of telepathy. But only really works with those she has a close bond with. This allows her to communicate with that individual from a long distance. It is also possible that it's that power which is what people confuse with magic. Though again even with that power it is unknown if it's real or not.
Anyway there are three of mine.
The Flying Kipper as a cursed seasonal train is perfect!
Great video, as always. I especially enjoy how much you make your audience feel like a community
Also, a headcannon i have is that reason the logging locos never appear after season 16 is that a fire happened, and they burned like wood on Misty Island. Piano
Thanks a lot for the kind words
Also that headcanon just made my day. I have my own for the logging locos but that one is just too funny 💀
@expressbean64 No problem, and I'm glad you liked my headcannon
@@expressbean64What's your headcanon
PIANO One of my headcanons is that Toby's old tramway used to run from Sodor to the mainland and would go over the Vicarstown bridge, this explains why the Sodor tramways sign has Toby on it, because he worked on that railway, and it eases my mind knowing that all those episodes with Toby's branchline are accurate.
PIANO 🎹
When the engines breath, we'll say steam engines, they draw air into their systems like you would to draw up the fire in the fire box. Peter Sam's special funnel, draws more air in giving him more breath for more strength. For diesels, they have air systems and filters. Basically a filter that needs replaced would be like of a diseased smokers lung than needs transplanted. And Electric engines are just robots.
Piano
I’m bored so I’m gonna put some in:
1. Percy tried to scare Henry every year on January 15 (the day that Troublesome Engines was published)
2. Rebecca was once fitted with a Geisel Ejector in an attempt to improve performance
3. Thomas was temporarily repainted green to promote The Adventure Begins when it was released.
PIANO
A headcanon I have for Hank is that he takes over heavy goods trains when engines like Donald and Douglas are being repaired or are on special jobs. He usually sleeps at Vicarstown and can take trains from there to the mainland.
I also like to think that he and Phillip have a really sweet bond with one another, since they're both from the Pennsylvania Railroad. Hank was Phillip's mentor on the Pennsy until Hank was sent to Sodor.
PIANO
Hi, in my headcannon, the Ffarrquhar Branch is a tramway and branches at Elsbridge. It goes through the town as a tramway and the through Ffarrquhar again as a tramway. Toby has been operating the line since 1909 (yes he is one of the early J70s) and he has a brother called Timothy (also J70) and they have four of these coaches like Henrietta. Thomas also gets side plates and cow catchers in 1926 and his coaches are Annie, Beatrix and Clarabel. They are Stroudley Coaches like in the TVS . Percy only works on the harbour line and has only cowcatchers. Daisy works there and just has a lower body wich covers her wheels. Mavis is just as in the RWS. She has a sister called Rose which is unpowered and hung to her back (for ease of modelling).
Piano
The theory about engines being on loan makes total sense. We never saw Dennis or Billy in CGI.
PIANO
the reason why splatter and dodge never appeared again was because they were part of the many 08s that were scrapped
In addition to the plans for The Great Race that were dropped, tram tracks are shown passing under the bridge in Vicarstown just before the station during the crash scene at the start of Journey Beyond Sodor, we just never see the trams.
Here's my headcanon here.
David, the ivatt class engine, My OC, was never seen on Sodor, since he could have been sold off back to the LMS. He was put to work at the Colorado Freight yard, as the LMS bought it from CSX Corporation. It was a pretty big yard, as he worked there alongside 41241, Arthur, and others. After diesels started taking over, he was sold to the Union Pacific to run excursion trains, alongside 844 and 4014.
David was later sent to the north western railway in 1956 to help with the reconstruction of the harbor branch line. He was painted blue with an orange lining, which was a stark contrast to his former LMS black.
He was numbered 41246, from his original number, 48366.
In my head canon,Gordon was sent to Doncaster to gain a corridor tender and a new boiler having an increased PSI allowing Gordon to complete a speed record however after an incident the increased PSI was removed and his old boiler was refitted.For Henry instead of being rebuilt into a black 5 he would be rebuilt into a modified LNER v2 with a lot of modifications.PIANO
PIANO
OK, so my headcanon is about Lady from TATMR. Her real name is Tasha, and she was an experimental freelance design by Burnett Stone. Tasha was one of many engines loaned to help build the railway, and became good friends with Edward. A couple decades later, she was officially purchased to help run Edward’s branch line, and is operated by Burnett's family. Her current driver is Burnett's granddaughter, Lily.
Aww!
Piano: Personal Headcanon here..
The reason the show's consistency between seasons and characters constantly switching around is due to the show writers going to see all the engines, who are nearing their Hundreds or 90s so their memories are rather fuzzy, explaining the random nature of episodes like Up, Up, and Away, or Wonky Whistle, or even Henry's Special Coal.
Stanley is a neat freak, Ryan imagines disaster scenarios daily, and Duncan knows what a cheeseburger tastes like
For me, the Sodor&Mainland railway and the Wellsworth&Suddery railway still exist
Paxton and Emily were saved from scrap and then brought to sodor and then to be later painted in S&M green to commemorate the railway.
Charlie, Billy and Fergus were later bought to the railway due to the lack of shunters, small goods engines etc. And were to work along side Adam, Lily, Colin and Edward. Charlie and Billy were used for shunting and hauling small goods ti the docks and back, Fergus was used for maintenece from Wellsworth to Suddery
PIANO 🎹
I have a headcanon - it explains why Henry's behavior is so different in the later seasons compared to the Railway Series or classic seasons, but it also lines up with his characterization in the Railway Series and classic seasons.
So - Henry is a rude, stuck-up, bully-type in the Railway Series and classic seasons, and it can already be implied that it is more due to him feeling insecure rather than being truly mean-spirited (Henry's Forest really adds to that). He feels a little too big-headed now that he is a much more capable engine with his new shape, but at the same time, he doubts himself, and tries to bully others to make himself feel better. On top of that, he actually does feel scared and worried a lot, but he puts on this fake "tough guy" personality to hide the fact that he is actually a worrier (Haunted Henry might be a good example of this).
In the Season 7 episode "What's The Matter With Henry", Henry feels so ill he doesn't bother trying to be tough, and when Emily helps him out, he begins to rethink his life. He realizes that he wasn't always paying attention to just how kind some of the others were to him, even when he didn't deserve it himself. He begins to soften up, and drops that fake "tough guy" attitude, and becomes more caring and kind rather than standoffish and defensive. Thus, he is a much nicer character.
But, Henry's tendency to worry never goes away, and now that he has stopped trying to hide his insecurity. Now that it is on full display, he becomes a full-blown hypochondriac, which he is in the later seasons.
🎹piano
In my head canon henry was rebuilt into a jubilee class when he had his flying kipper crash
Bonus
Thomas was built as an a1 terrier in 1880 then rebuilt in 1913 as an e2 with out the extended side tanks then rebuilt again with the extended side tanks when the nwr bought him
4:07 I personally liked the pink on her more too, but I also like how her red paint actually fits her name more, because roses are red, and her name is ROSIE, and she is red too.
🎹PIANO🎹:
A Headcanon I have has the AEG characters being worked into the original series, Kana would be stationed at the peel godred line, Sandy (who is a Ex-DSB Kof shunter) would be stationed as a Shunter for the Knapford shunting yards, Bruno would be just a normal L.B.S.C. 43 Ton Goods Brake Van that would be usually paired up with Percy and his mail trains, Tess is a stationary crane at Knapford Harbour, and as for Ultratrain and Trainiac, their just mainland engines.
Piano 🎹
In my head canon the reason James is so worried when he as a scratch on him is because when he got his accident he was in a bad state but he also felt he didn’t belong on the railway for being a dark color and his red paint made him feel better but when a scratch it reminded of his crash and his past so it explains why James is so angry at the trucks so he as grew anxiety.
Piano
Also my head cannon:
(May be related to a project I’m working on)
Thomas and friends is actually a show based on the real engines that are on the island that were driven by drivers that the characters were named after. Meaning that in my head cannon all the characters are humans (as we only saw them as trains and it would be fun to see what it’s like if they’re humans) Also Thomas would be Percy’s older brother instead of best friends and Edward is both of their dad(Don’t ask me why The Adventure Begins and Trampy movies explain it) and both Thomas and Percy were taken away to one of Edwards’ younger brothers house where they’re treated really horribly and made a great escape from it on June 16th 1919 and yes my head canon takes place in the 1920s so that means if the characters are humans the trains don’t talk so that no one can hear the engines screaming in pain when being scrapped.
PIANO
my ideal Thomas is kinda complicated. An 0-6-0 built at crovan’s gate works in 1925 with drawings made by Billinton at the tail end of WW1 for a new shunting engine that would have resembled the terriers, but with extended tanks, bunkers and smaller tires on the middle driving wheels. He would have worked at vicarstown for 4.5 years and at wellsworth for 3 months, working on the ffarquhar line until withdrawal and preservation in ‘69, now working the heritage railway in norramby
PIANO
So honestly i just wanted to give a headcanon to every single hit era character
- little giant IS mighty mac
- Molly is a D40 which makes her Edward's sister but she wasnt close to any of her siblings , but she was close to a K2 called emily
- Neville still has a bridge trauma after the accident back in 1965
- Dennis works with Derek and Victor at the crovan's gate works
- Jeremy died
- Rocky is the most liked piece of rolling stock on sodor
- Rosie was adopted by edward
- Freddie is friends with ivo hugh , even though they sill have some beef
- Whiff is an 0-4-0 tank engine ( i still havent found the right on )
- Madge was on loan
- Hector and Edward are the only ones that can handle james' complaining
-Billy was part of the wellsworth and suderry with his brother Charlie , he saw charlie die
- Stanley is an E2 replica built for the NWR
- Hank is just chill
- Flora was one of the scrapped coffeepots
- Colin just doesnt exist
personally my head canon is the engines can eat stuff and it doesn't effect them because it just dissolves/melts away in their smoke box, i like to think they mainly eat peanuts because i saw it in a book lol
PIANO
1. Alaric and Eric (the Culdee Fell's 7 and 8) are withdrawn from service on the CFR in 1992 and relocated to the Lookout Mountain Railway near Harwick.
2. Jinty and Pug are female first of all. They were withdrawn in the 1960s (1964 for Jinty, between 1963-66 for Pug) but were saved by The Fat Controller. Jinty worked at Barrow as the NWR's shunter until 1967 when she was transferred to Tidmouth when Duck was given his branchline. Pug meanwhile became the shunter at Tidmouth Harbor.
3. Flying Thistle was built in 1946 and first visited Sodor in 1960. At first he was rude to the other engines but after being rescued by the Scottish Twins and having a chat with Gordon, he became a lot more friendly to the others. He was withdrawn in 1965 but was saved by the Vicarstown Rail Museum and now runs railtours to promote the museum while helping out on the Main Line if need be.
4. Proteus was the engine Falcon replaced in the Mid Sodor Railway due to a bad accident Proteus had on the Mountain Road.
5. Sandy is a Ruston and Hornsby 48 DIesel Shunter. Farona and Frederico are Fenfe Class 353/354s converted to run on electricity. Riff and Jiff are BR Class 91s.
Lookout Mountain Railway is SUCH a cool idea
@@SkarloeyStudios Thanks. That's actually my take on an All Engines Go location.
Piano!
I headcannon that the Culdee Fell railway is still canon to the TV show and they work on a mountain west of the Blue Mountain Quarry.
piano
in my headcanon, thomas is a lbscr e4, and he has his own accident by pulling a long coal train backwards and flew down gordons hill and hit the express.
I have many head-canons about T&F, but I think I'll just share this one.
So, every one know about the ghost of the Half Engine, right? But in my head-canon, she's the sister of Billy & Charlie and worked on the W&S Railway along side them. In the original story, she had literally half a face, but in this AU of mine, she's just half blind which makes her still the laughing stock by some workmen, her brothers, and even the manager in charge of the railway. And just before the NWR was in the final touches of coming together as one big railway. The W&S controller told her that he had sold the Half (-Blind) Engine to the Sodor and Mainland Railway. But it was a lie to have her dumped in the forest of one of the S&M’s old yards. Left behind for so many years. Years later, the story of the Half Engine was spread around by some explores as they heard some unholy screaming, which is actually her being afraid of spider(s), and James heard that story and told it to the other engines. She was rediscovered by Thomas and he tried to help her, but she was afraid that she'll be betrayed again. Later, Thomas told Edward everything about the truth about the Half-Blind Engine, James overheard their conversation and felt bad about it. After Edward talk to The Half-Blind Engine who's revealed to be named "Iris", she allows him to take her to the Works to be restored. Sir Topham Hatt arrived with James to see Iris, he was welcomes her to the NWR with open arms, as for James, he apologize to Iris to telling that awful story. Iris is painted in Caledonian blue (like Donald & Douglas) with the number 14 on her side, she also wears a special eye patch for her blind eye. She now works with Arthur (NWR #13) at the Harwick Branch Line along with the Little Western Engines.
(As for what happened to Billy & Charlie...SCRAPPED.)
Also, Piano
PIANO! (Who's idea was this, lemme know if you get the reference, lol)
IDK if this counts as a headcanon since it's more a weird AU idea, but I like to think Belle would be the TVS version of Barry the rescue engine, and Old Slow Coach is Victoria, I'm thinking of working on a story with the two for a series I'll make one day
I also think Billy and Murdoch worked on the same railway due to the similar liveries, only Murdoch's is much less bright than Billy is.
Piano!
Anyways, in my head-canon, the “Number 2” talked about in Grandpuff is NOT in fact Stanley, but was the original mid sodor No.2, “Fletcher Jennings,” and engineer similar is design to Rheneas and Dolgoch, but sporting a different cab. She had many opinions and wasn’t afraid to express them, and was very much disliked by The Manager, as well and Duke. She ended up as the railway’s scapegoat, and derailed on tight curves often, due to her long wheelbase. Due to this, she was nicknamed “Reputation Smudger,” by Duke. After a particularly bad munitions accident in 1903 resulting in extreme damage to Jennings and the death of her Crew, the manager stripped her of her wheels and converted her into a generator for the main sheds. She was accused of causing the second Alberts death in 1924, so the Manager decided to shut her up for good. She was moved to one of the mines later that year, and has not been seen since. Dukes telling of the tale is 80% false. It is only what he chooses to believe. In reality, Jennings was kind and charismatic kind of engine, and a friend to most who got to know her. Stanley still exists, and took the role as shed generator later in 1924.
Oh yeh, Jennings is trans. I can provide some sketches of her if you want.
Note: she has side plates, and she was originally painted in MSR Boatrain Blue, but was repainted into MSR maroon some time before her withdrawal
Awesome video Glad to see your back
Thanks! Next video won’t take as long as this one
Random one I thought:
Of all the other non-steam team members selected to be in the Billboard for Knapford aside from the Steam Team, Diesel was chosen to be apart of it because it was decided a diesel should be chosen to show it’s not only the steam engines on the NWR (or just the Steam Team either) so it was reluctantly decided that despite his bad behavior Diesel would be chosen to be on the billboard because he was the first diesel brought on to the NWR
Strawberry
🎹Piano! My AU for Mighty Mac is that Mighty was originally a single Narrow Gauge Engine and he felt kinda lonely when he was shunting, so he asked his controller if he can be rebuilt to be a Double Fairlie because he wanted to have company while he’s working. But it backfired, so him and Mac weren’t working and mostly arguing. But Sir Topham Hatt bought them because he needed another Narrow Gauge Engine. Mighty Mac then came and they asked Skarloey and Rheneas where they go because they’re new there and before the old engines can tell them they argue and that’s why they don’t know where to go in the episode
PIANO.
I have a head cannon that misty islands mist is the cause of bash dash and Ferdinand’s insanity and why the island was abandoned. Allow me to explain. I believe that the mist has supernatural effects. Such as causing living vehicles to slowly lose their minds over time.
I actually have someone similar. I have a different source of their insanity but ngl you were pretty close. I guess great minds think alike.
1. My headcanon is that the show is actually just crew members re-enacting stories the engines told to them when Awdry, Brenner or Britt visited Sodor.
2. Thomas had the problems the E2 had pre Sodor and was rebuilt at Crovan’s Gate.
3. The reason the HIT era has characters that only appeared once is because they were sent away
PIANO!!!
Hey thanks for featuring my head Canon! Also, my user name is danish so that’s Why it’s so hard to pronounce
PIANO; The Engines can have kids if you think about it hard enough. If e.g. Whiff locks in and learns about engineering and all components to make a train. Then Whiff tells Fat Hatt to hire an artist (Who doesn't know about train design). Whiff tells the artist every line he draws. Then they build the train. Since the designer counts as the parent of the engine, Whiff would be the father.
@@sirtopramhatt whiff locking in is CRAZY 💀💀💀💀💀
@@expressbean64 he made it out da garbage dump
In my headcannon I believe that after privatisation many companies wanted to get sodor in their leagues but sir topham hat declined however some companies sent in some dmus and emus like 321s and 142s this gave sir topham hatt an idea to expand the nwr to more remote places like harwick and those engines run those lines.
Piano
1.edward was never rebuilt
2.proteus worked on the mid sodor but was relocated to the great waterton tramway after the msr closed but died after the town was abandoned and the original tower fell on him so when he was never found he became a legend
3. The trains can eat food but it adds no nutritional value and they just eat whatever there driver eats
4. Rocky holds a grudge against harvey
Piano
I think that engines can feel love .
Like they can love each other . Like Toby and henrietta. Also James has a huge crush on Emily but she does not like him back. As for the engine who Thomas has his heart for it's lady .
So after magic railroad (since Britt ALCROFT called it canon ) lady went to work on the northwestern railway and if you remember if magic railroad Thomas called her beautiful . What ever they start dating but sir tophamhatt has to send her to work at another part of the island because she keeps distracting Thomas . She worked in the hills with Rusty and later mighty Mac and Thomas visits her often . Until she was relocated to ulfesrad Castle where Thomas can see her more often.
🎹PIANO🎹
In my au, Thomas is a perfected version of e2’s. Being e2 number 110. 4 more were going to be built, but because of the war, they weren’t. When Thomas got to sodor, the lbscr sold him to Sir Topham Hatt, and just wrote him as lost in the war.
In my headcanon Lady is canon and here’s why. In 1895 on muffle mountain a small 0-4-0 tank engine named Lady was built by an engineer named Burnett Stone, she was moved to sodor by a via ship to Brendam to work on the W&S and became the railway 4th engine (I can’t say anything more cause that’s a story for another day I have play until then I see you at the station)

Arent u that person everyone hates
Sounds very interesting hopefully it all goes well
🎹 PIANO🎹
In my au Gordon is 1470 (Great Northern) BUT was never rebuilt by Edward Thompson. Though he got slight modification at crewe in 1939 and came back to sodor in early ww11
🎹Piano🎹: I like to headcanon that The Magic Railroad is in it's own different world entirely, Lady still works as the main engine after the events of TATMR and is also an afterlife for steam engine's after they've been scrapped.
PIANO
The mine at the bottom of the Ulfstead Castle Hill, is a shortcut to the Ulfstead Coal Mines, and is ran by light engines like Lady or Glynn.
Uh. Which mine?
@@juanscrazyfilmz you know the mine Stephen went into in King of the Railway
PIANO.
Second headcanon because why not:
percy is an 0-4-0 Saddle Tank engine That Was Build By Avonside few years after Trojan was built. however Would Later Slowly Become a Hodgepodge with no Basis. since Percy was Accident Prone Everytime He was Send into the Workshops on the other railway they would use any Spare Parts They Can find and use it to mend percy.
PIANO
1. The two Henry's theory is technically what happened.
Basically, in Crewe Henry's face (smokebox door) was removed off the engine, and the dimensions matched that of a Stanier 5 which it was fitted onto. Henry's rebuilds didn't take long for that reason.
2. Percy was built on-site at Crovan's Gate works, and diagrams were drawn for about 3 more members of his class. Unfortunately, the Crovan's Gate fire occured during the 30s and the drawings were destroyed and the works stopped producing engines entirely. Interestingly, a second member of this class was half finished. After the fire, no traces of it were found, but a man (Burnett Stone) had smuggled the remains up north. He passed away sometime in the 50s/60s and the engine has been dusting away in his workshop.
3. Sodor isn't viewed as a 'safe haven' by most on the other railway. The engines are considered to be weird and act irrationally.
A lot of engines would consider a safe haven to be the Bluebell railway, or the Dean Forest. Topham sees this as a blessing because he is quite content with his famous engines.
Since the Talyllyn Railway had Trecwn and St.Cafen In many headcanon the Skarloey Railway have two black diesels named Tobies and St.Ronan.
🎹Piano🎹. One of my headcannons is that the nwr needed 1 freight train,but just like donald and douglas 2 went to the island.They are both are Amtrak F40PH's their names are Barrett and Jarrett.Barrett is more cautious than Jarrett.And Jarrett is a miss color the Amtrak blue and red are switched and that makes him think that he is one of a kind and think that nothing bad will ever happen to him.The main land wanted to scrap Jarrett because his mispaint was a "Disgrace to the railway". The nwr only bought Barrett but since they were twins Barrett snuck Jarrett on to the ship.
PIANO: hiro is a time traveler, and that’s why he was able to be the first engine on sodor. He went back and altered the timeline to make himself the first. The tva decided to punish him by destroying his spare parts when he broke down, this also explains why he comes back to sodor later in the series, it’s just him time traveling, he never left, he just went to the future
Piano.
Alright, with that of the way, time to talk about my head-canons.
1. First of all, my head-canon is specifically model series based, with a few RWS and CGI elements. For instance; Bear, The Works Diesel (Wendell) and the CFR all exist.
2. After being discovered, Bertram is sent to the ironworks to look after Arry and Bert, and is converted into a tank engine.
3. The Unlucky Engine! is adapted into an episode in series 7. But instead of Thirteen helping Donald and Douglas, he’s bought to help Arthur on his branch line. And after the events of the episode, he’s repainted blue, and renamed Zach.
As I mentioned in the video I love when people give nothing characters some personality and 13 or Zack as you called him is perfect
Piano 🎹:after the events of old iron while Edward and James where at the works their cabs where switched by mistake and Tidmouth harbour bought a fleet of tug boats, among them where TenCents, Tophat, OJ, BigMac and Warrior.
The hit era narrow gauge engines episodes until season 16 are a weird fever dream Skarloey and rheneas had and imagine up mighty Mac and Freddie,
(PIANO) In my AU, toby works at his old line since the fat controller re-opened it in season 5. thomas' branch closed after the beeching axe, so he takes the local train shown in the brenner seasons and percy pulls the mail train with Rosie's help. (Thomas' branch was the only one closed because Edward's is the only way to get to brendam docks and the clay pits and Duck's branch is a popular spot for tourism). As shown in the Unlucky Tug's CGI map video, there is a line from the mainline that goes up to ulfstead castle(also a popular spot for tourism in my AU), and the ffarquhar quarry (witch is connected to the blue mountain quarry, because as also shown in tug's CGI map video there is a line from the blue mountain that goes to ulfstead, so i like to belive it was later extended to ffarquar after beeching), witch are the only places on the ffarquhar branch that did not close.
EDIT: When Thomas was alone on his branchline he had a tender for extra coal for non stop goods trains up to ffarquhar quarry
I could extend the closed branch line (piano!)
After the Ffarquhar branch closed the track was removed and the platform at Elsbridge was gated.
The station buildings became overgrown except for Ffarquhar, which was kept as a rail depot.
However the depot closed in 2005 after the storm in Calling All Engines and was abandoned for a decade.
In 2015, Sir Topham Hatt and The National Lottery reopened the line and is still serving as many passengers as when it closed in 1965.
I do Like the PIANO. Anyways. My headcanon for Thomas is that he is in fact a replica of an E2 that was built with improper proportions making him too short and his cab being too wide. And not having the traditional LB&SCR Railway smoke box saddle. The builders who Constructed Him christened the engine with the name "Thomas" and he was given to the LBSC Railway. But the lbsc did not want the engine so they Pawned him off to the first Buyer (Sir Topham Hatt)
Who was very happy about the purchase and then soon Thomas was given his NWR Blue Livery with the Number "1" on his Tanks. Thomas Later saved James by getting the breakdown train after James ran away. And was rewarded his own Branch line With His two coaches: Annie and Clarabel
PIANO
Thomas had tramplates from 1918-1922 to work on a small tramway off of Sodor but he arrives without tramplates in 1923.
PIANO 🎹: Aside from Hank, the North Western has a few other American engines. They have:
A Grand Trunk Western U-1-c 4-8-2 named Jared for use over Gordon’s Hill with heavy freight, sometimes pulls a named passenger train called the Grand Trunk Limited.
A Denver & Rio Grande C-16 2-8-0 named Randall for the mainline
An unspecified Baldwin 0-6-0 tender engine named Williford for Tidmouth Docks.
Here’s how they fit in and how they interact with the other engines on Sodor.
Jared: A bit stoic and cold to the other engines, but warmed up pretty fast. Good friends with Henry and Edward.
Randall: Kind and understanding, usually the mediator for most of the fights between engines. Friends with Toby and Mavis.
Williford: Hardworking and passionate about his work. Friends with Thomas and Donald.
Piano?!?!?
In my wierd random AU jeremy is a Douglas DC-8 instead of a generic BAC One-Eleven Airliner, it just feels more time accurate tbh
If I did make my own Thomas headcannon, it would take place from the railway series to the models series (seasons 1-12) since 12 marks the end of the Hit era (Piano 🎹)
In my headcannon, the Class-08's that left the island (Splatter and Dodge) are repainted into the mainland diesels (from JBS & TGR.) Piano
PIANO
So, my headcanon is that Gordon, Regina (a Raven A2 oc), Bear, Rebecca, and the other express engines in my AU, play a round of UNO to determine who pulls the express for the day. Their crews place and draw the cards.
🎹PIANO🎹
So here is my au for Timothy. He was a j69 tank engine, and arrived on Sodor in a grey undercoat. Upon arrival, they gave him red lining, and some other things to make him feel complete, but left him grey and numberless. Engines joked that he was the ‘number zero engine’, which Timothy found funny. When Thomas arrived, Timothy became kinda like an older brother to Thomas, and Thomas looked up to him. He had a strong bond with Thomas and Edward, and they were all close. Then, one faithful day, Timothy was pulling a passenger train up the line, but just before the last station, his breaks failed, and he shouted for his crew to uncouple the coaches, and jump clear. His crew said goodbye and did so. The coaches stop just outside the station, but Timothy plunged into the gap, sealing his fate. Some of the lined engines often said Timothy did it on purpose, leading Thomas to burst out. Sodor took a while to recover from it. But some still say that ‘every year, on the date of the accident, he runs again, as a warning to others, plunging into the gap, shrieking like a lost soul.’
Nice
@@PeterSamProductions-mj6yx thx
freddie was gonna appear in bmm and series 16 but was cut (i do wonder freddie's life was like before series 10)
That would’ve been awesome
He would have been a fun character for Duke to interact with "That cocky youngster calls himself fearless now does he?"
@@eduardoaguero1220I think in hit era lore Freddie used to work on the mid sodor
🎹🎹🎹My headcanon for James this that after his big crash with the trucks on his first day, we would have been turned into the correct L&YR class 28 ( Without his front pony truck), Because he wanted to be more like his basis, and because he wanted to be perfect 🎹🎹🎹
I love these headcanons they're hilarious
My head cannon for Molly: She worked on the GER hauling express trains from London to Doncaster. She met Toby while he still worked on the GER. Toby & Rhiannon (one of Molly's sisters in my AU) treated her kindly while the bigger engines bullied her. Toby would always come to Molly's defense. Molly was eventually withdrawn and bought by a private owner who just kept her in a shed. Molly's owner eventually died and his children sold her to Sir Topham Hatt because they felt she deserved better. When Molly arrived on Sodor she was painted GER Blue. The Fat Controller asked what color she wanted to be painted and she chose yellow, because it reminded her of the summer. Toby suggested Topham purchase her because he knew she was reliable and dependable. Molly was extremely happy to see Toby when she came to Sodor. Toby rightfully tore Emily a new smokebox when he heard that she had made fun of Molly. Emily appologized to Molly. Molly is shy because she was bullied near constantly on the GER. Toby & Rhiannon were some of the few engines that were kind to Molly.
lner toby is perfect boi why switch to ger
5:03 THERE I AM GARY THERE I AM!
If you continue this series, I'd like to be a part of it, here's one that I rather like.
Thomas is still an E2, but is the last one ever built, he's LBSCR #109, who was built around 1917 and brought in 1925 as a shunter for the big station as well as the harbor, but after Jane(my HC James)'s brake caught on fire, Thomas raced after her and rescued her, he was rewarded, to be given a blue coat of paint and assigned to the Ffarquhar Branch, with his older sister, Gracie
ErM aCtUaLlY lBsC 1|0 wAs An E3 🤓👆
@@juanscrazyfilmzalso Thomas arrived on Sodor in 1915, making him either number 105 or 106
@@BuzzLightbulb how would he be a fictional add on member then?
@@juanscrazyfilmz he wouldn’t be
Sorry if this feel rude to you, but I didn't agree with the year/time because Thomas was already worked in Sodor since 1915 to help the to build the mainline in war time era and later purchased by NWR in 1920 and became a shunter in Vicarstown (RWS version) or Knapford (TV version)
My theory on the reason why the trains have faces is because this is all taken place in the mind of a child through all different generations playing with hand-me-down trains and that's why some trains come and the stories become more brainrot overtime.
My headcannon:
Bachman Junior engines (Stuart, Billy, 2005) are members of Thomas’s Class.
PIANO
PIANO fearless Freddie's headcanon is similar to what happened to lynton and Barnstable railway locomotive lew.
My theory with the cursed Flying Kipper is that years before Henry took the train, there was another engine that pulled it. One day the engine was involved in a terrible accident with the Flying Kipper and the driver and fireman jumped before the crash. Feeling betrayed the engine cursed the train with his/her dying breath which is why the Kipper has such bad luck
🎹PIANO🎹 in my AU Thomas has a replica E2 cousin named Jaime who was the fifth E2 replica so he has a number 5 wich makes no sense cause James has one but who cares and there’s also another replica E2 on the island and he’s named after me because almost all of my OCs are me and Theo works on sodor after being on an abandoned siding in a ruined steelworks (sorry if I yapped too much)
In my au 98462 is an L&YR class 8
And 87546 is a LNER B16, they both were loaned to NWR in 1922, 98462 was the passenger engine, and 87546 as the mixed traffic, they worked the railway until 1926,
Personality: 98462 was the rude selfish engine, and 87546 was the cocky and rude engine
WW2: when the Second World War began they were both put on loan again, they would both have pulled troops from Tidmoth and vicarstown,
87546 actually saved a troop train when a USAT S160 called Sam, which had runout of water so 87546 pushed Sam until they reached Henry’s tunnel, then they went to vicarstown, after the war, 87546 got awarded a plate that said “croven’s gate” once he had gone back to his railway along with 98462, 87546 was put in a shed, years later he was found near the midlands and became the 12th engine, and 98462 would later be found as well becoming the 16th engine on the NWR
Also 98462 name is mark
Strawberry🍓
This is the Inspiration i need for my next vid
i did wonder what rosie's life was like before coming to sodor
Perhaps she was a dockside shunter on the mainland
@@expressbean64maybe Southampton? That could give her and Thomas something in common (though of course they would’ve been there at separate times)
damn just found this channel and already love it, also random headcanon: gordon intially was homophobic (due to the conservatism in the 1800s and early 1900s) but eventually get over it like his hatred of the diesels
🎹piano🎹
In my head canon, once Percy matures from being, “The child” he ends up leading a Labour movement on Sodor. (this started off when I watched the Thomas characters political opinions video which if you see I recommend as it’s pretty funny). I believe that this would have started, back in day of the diesel, where diesel 10 would have sown the seeds in his mind. I believe that after the fat controller retired or died, his son would inherit the railway, but not the love of engines. The fat controller’s son, would slowly phases out the steam engines.( all the engines which don’t have a real life counterpart now, were at some point sold off or scrapped, except for Thomas he is still around). Originally the steam engines would be split on joining Percy, but the tipping point for the steam engines would be the selling or scraping of Gordon.( I know he’s based off the Scotsman, but the Scotsman is canonically a character, so r.i.p. Gordon). Gordon would have led the opposition to Percy, so his death would show the steam engines that they are all expendable. As for the diesels, I think diesel 10 and the majority of diesel would side with tophamhat’s son, as it’s the diesel’s who are being brought in to replace the steam engines. However, devious diesel would actually be working with Percy and would help to hide the engines, that are to be scrapped. However, with the introduction of the modern electric engines, now the diesels are also being being phased out. This eventually culminates into a complete sabotage, of the railway. Eventually lady hat, would find out about all of this and remove her son as controller, but by that point the damage was done. The engines were sold off to heritage railways or shunting yards in order to keep them alive. (as son hat, had taken away almost all the engines away from Sodor) Because of the events the engines would stop talking too traumatised by everything. Except for one Thomas the tank engine, who is now hired out by different railways for fun day outs and tells people everything that happened on Sodor, from when he first arrived on the island to the end of Sodor’s railway. In my head it ends with all the engines meeting up and remembering the good times as Thomas and Percy look into the sunset. (Sometimes the ending is the fat controller waking up from a nightmare, also son hat is meant to represent Mattel and thanks for reading if you’re here) 😄🚂🚂
Im also allergic to peanuts and i know your pain.
In my au Neville Is painted black and yellow to resemble molly in my au she’s a b16 and used to work on the mainline until Gordon came
PIANO
I have many headcanons, so ima gonna condense ‘em.
1. There used to be many railways on the island. The Railroad (1800 to 1860), Crovan’s Gate and Rolf’s Castle Railway (1860 to 1910), Vicarstown, Ballahoo, and Noramby Railway (1875 to 1910), Tidmoth coastline Railway (1890 to 1948), Brendam Railway (1885 to 1948), and North Western Railway (1910 to 1948).
2. I imagine that Sodor had its own version of nationalization in 1948 with Sodor Railways (A.K.A. SR) that was a merger between NWR, TCR, and the Brendam Railway. It has stayed that way even through privatization and preservation eras.
3: I think that if he did exist, Gordon would be the last pure A-1 Pacific left alive today. The rest of his brothers would have received the A-3 rebuild when he didn’t.
4: That diesel 10 was a serial killer and anti-steam revolutionary. Like diesel, but more facist like. However, he does become redeemed by Topham Hatt when he calls him back to help build the airport. He is better now and helps out at the Smelters.
5: I imagine there have been 4 Hatts that have been in charge; Derek (topham the first), Charles, Stephen, and Bertram.
6: that the stories in the railway series actually happened in the same year that Wilbert Awdry published the books that they took place in.
7: along with being a Reverend/Vicar and railway enthusiast, that Rev. W. Awdry also was a Sodor Historian, regular visitor, and volunteer on SR after his time on the Tallylyn Railway ( which would explain why he knew the engines and railway so well).
And finally 8: That Daisy has a relationship with one of her drivers. Then again, I ship myself with her so much 😂❤.

In the early 1900s a start up locomotive designer drew up his 1st steam engine design; a saddle tank that could do shunting and branchline work. He sadly never got any railway companies to build it and he moved on to other projects, abandoning the saddle design. But it would end up in the hands of a locomotive workshop they decided to build it, finishing construction in 1923, he was kept in storage due to now one wanting to buy loco until a few years later when he was bought buy the north western railway, getting the name: Percy.
In my headcannon, there's mor steam engines like 5 0-4-0 saddle tank locomotives and 5 E-2 tank locomotives purchased by sir topham hatt, bloomer and oliver are famous because they look like the titfield thunderbolt movie locomotives, 6 new A-1 2-3-1 express locos will be purchased in lner apple green and finally, 2 new 14xx locomotives from gwr were saved from scrap
PIANO
Timothy (the ghost engine) was LBSCR #100 and worked at Southampton Docks with his siblings until the S100s (Rosie & her siblings) were brought on to replace the E2s, when Timothy heard about this, he knew his fate would quickly approach, so one night, Timothy & his crew prepped him to make an escape to Sodor (as they heard in the newspaper that it is a safe haven for steam engines). Timothy was able to make it to Bridlington yards (seen in JBS) but saw that it was infested with diesels, he then met Hurricane, and went with him to the Steelworks so that he could hide, there, he met Frankie, and was forced to do work for repayment of helping Timothy hide there, he was able to escape there but was caught by diesels before making it to Barrow, he was able to make a mad dash over the Vicarstown Rolling Bridge and was able to get to Knapford, where he met Topham, and was able to be bought and reunited with Thomas,. He was checked over at Crovan's Gate Steamworks and now pulls local trains to Vicarstown.
I like to imagine that engines for example Gordon go on rail tours
First off: PIANO
Secondly: prepare for the weirdest headcanon ever: TTTE but it takes place on an American narrow gauge railroad in the middle of nowhere. I thought this up at three in the morning a few years ago and the idea’s just been stuck in my mind ever since. Here’s every engine’s basis that I’ve worked out so far:
(spoiler alert, this’ll be a long one with a lot of technical details)
1, Thomas: ex-Uintah Class 20 0-6-2 no.22, built 1905, Acquired 1916
2, Edward: ex-D&RG 8-18C 4-4-0, built 1875, ex Montrose & Ronan 4, acquired during NWR formation
3, Henry: new-built K-27 2-8-2, built/acquired 1917, builder unknown, originally Vauclain Compound, rebuilt 1928
4, Gordon: prototype ALCO K-28, built 1922, acquired 1924
5, James: ex-RGS T-19 4-6-0, built 1899, acquired 1925
6, Percy: Porter 8-ton 0-4-0ST, built 1890, acquired 1926, rebuilt 1928 as 0-4-2, converted from wood burning to coal burning
7, Toby: custom built 0-6-0 Steam Dummy, built 1888, acquired 1930
8, Duck: ex-D&RG Class 48, built 1877, sold to Alabama logging company, acquired 1932
9, Donald: ex-D&RGW T-12 4-6-0, built 1883, acquired 1934
10, Douglas: ex-D&RGW T-12 4-6-0, built 1883, arrived 1934, acquired 1935
11, Oliver: ex-Ferries and Cliff House Class 3 2-4-2, built 1887, sold to Diamond and Caldor 1906, arrived on Rio Grande Southern 1921, acquired 1952
12, Emily: ex-Wellsworth & Brendam 2-6-6 Mason Bogey, built 1880, acquired 1924 in NWR formation, sold off to unknown company 1925, re-acquired from scrapyard in 1953
13, Murdoch: ex-D&RGW K-37, built 1930, acquired 1955
I have an AU for Victoria from the RWS. My idea is Edward has a sneaky side that he does not show much and intentionally brought Victoria from the Furness Railway. However, he had also intentionally hidden Victoria in the Ffarquhar Branch Line so the FR couldn't find her.
Since Edward moved to Brendam, he had forgotten where she was kept, and let's say Victoria forgot about time or something. I don't know
🎹 Piano 🎹
Bertram worked on the Mid Sodor Railway as a tender engine, he was extremely arrogant and boastful, a contrast of Duke.
One day, he got “Cut Down To Size” and was rebuilt a tank engine, after a while, he started to reflect on his past self and matured more and more.
One time, the excavating shed set on fire, Bertram took workman away as fast as he could, when he heard he left a workman behind, he rushed into the fire to save him, unfortunately he derailed on the points, as the workman ran off, Bertram was killed in the fire, people called him “The Old Warrior”
Many years later, Toby comes to the abandoned mines (the mines had track for both narrow gauge and standard gauge to transfer goods) when sparks from his funnel set ablaze a small work shed (Toby didn’t realise however) Bertram called out for Toby and warned him about the situation, after the whole ordeal was put to rest, Bertram was rescued and rebuilt into a tender engine.
Ok I guess I'll give this a whirl.
Rosie was built in the 1940s during the second world war. I know her class mostly worked at South Hampton Docks but I'd like to think she might have served in the war.
She could have started out as a rookie but was trained and mentored by bigger and older engines who served in previous wars or also have just been trained by ones who had more experience. Eventually she reached the rank of Lieutenant and was tasked with training newer recruits in terms of how to handle certain rolling stock and what not.
I know it seems strange to give steam engines military ranks but I mean hey if we humans can get them I don't see why engines couldn't. Plus we did give the rank of sergeant to a dog so I don't think its to far fetched.
Rosie would serve in the war and even was tasked with work to help liberate France and even liberate concentration camps. Possibly seeing the horrors of war and leaving her with some pretty heavy trauma.
After the war she would be sent to work at South Hampton Docks and when the BR nationalisation came about she would be painted from her War Department black to BR black and be numbered 30037.
She would work at the docks until diesels started taking work from her and her brothers and sisters. Rosie would end up in a scrapyard and be found by Sir Topham Hatt who is looking for a new station pilot for Knapford.
Sir Topham Hatt would look at Rosie interested in where came from and she would tell him all about her life. Sir Topham Hatt would feel bad especially since a war veteran like her didn't deserve to be scrapped. He would buy her then and there and have her shipped to sodor.
Rosie would arrive and start her work around the yards becoming quite acquainted with the yard and enjoying her new home. She would also become good friends with many of the other engines.
Through trial and tribulation she would soon earn a new coat of paint she would be repainted her cherry red and also be given a chance to try make up.
She would decide to get some pink blush, lip gloss and red eyeshadow. I could see Rosie having this kind and sort of loving and nurturing personality, but also gave this side where she doesn't stand tricks or nonsense.
This would be especially prominent if she had an episode with Bill and Ben where she might snap and go all military on them should them misbehave.
I also like to think she might sing old 50/60s songs while shunting in the yard. Songs such as "a wonderful guy", "He's a Demon - He's a Devil - He's a Doll" and "The Wanderer" kind of think like songs from the fallout 4 Diamond City Radio.
