    Thank you so much for this series! I've been watching for years! As for this adaptation, what a strange one it was. Weird how Percy basically got away with trying to drown a sentient boat (unintentionally, yes, but it would seem he should have at least been given a stern talking-to). I wonder if maybe they never adapted the Mavis story because they thought it was too frightening and perhaps they thought Toby derailing was too similar to Thomas Gets Bumped and Time for Trouble.

  • @callum110597

    Well done on wrapping up to all the main books of The Railway Series, compared with the TV series. I remember reading the book with my grandparents on my dad's side...but forgot how different it was, having never had the book myself. And real shame to see that, alongside The Small Railway Engines, being one of the last books to be adapted, before Mattel has replaced Thomas & Friends with All Engines Go now. And I thought "Special Attraction" was pretty nice.

And Toby would fall asleep and wake up to go to the Special Attraction.

    Other differences you didn't discuss:
    1. Bulstrode in his namesake RWS story has two hulls. In the adaptation ("Special Attraction"), he's got just one.
    2. Four freight cars loaded with what was falsely described as stone in the Railway Series fell into Bulstrode. In the adaptation, there were five correctly described as carrying stone instead of slate.
    3. In the adaptation, the cars face Percy before turning their faces away but in the book they were facing away from Percy all the time. They probably detected Percy's presence by puffing sounds.
