That fucking rabbit man #TATMRParody

@MrConductorFan

In all seriousness though, The Magic Railroad parody was excellent. The continued amount of work and dedication put into this thing for NUMEROUS from everyone is just humbling. Well done @MrConductorFan and all involved, you made quite a piece of art here.

In a lot of ways, this is superior to the actual film despite being a parody. The character development to Diesel 10 and George was so well done and actually added more depth to the story!

There's definitely bits that could've been chopped out (the Boomer plotline wasn't needed in this), but overall, very well put together. It was consistently funny, well-paced, and just a marvel of fan-produced content.

Thomas and Duck fucking hate each other. A thread:

Thomas first becomes jealous of Duck when he takes Annie and Clarabel in The Runaway, and they tell him how much they loved him.

Duck gives Thomas lip in Fish, and Thomas becomes immediately offended. Only 2 seconds into a conversation and they already argue.

Ok folks, I’ve been trying to make sense of Quarantine 20 using the shot list and photos for reference. Not everything on the shot list aligns perfectly when you put it in order, but I think I’ve mostly figured the episode out. A thread:

Episode opens same as the 15. Star explains the heatwave and how ships with the plague are being quarantined.

Cut to the Star Dock. It’s very clear there was more here that was cut out of the 15. The shot list mentions Big Mac is present here, but perhaps he was removed from filming at the last minute, or he's just off-screen and has no lines. (Scene 2)

Trying to take my mind off stuff, so fuck it here's a thread of my least favorite face of each Thomas character

Thomas had a lot of weird faces. This one I straight up don't like, it doesn't look like Thomas to me

I don't think Edward had a bad face, but they really did this one dirty when they gave it those stupid eyebrows. What emotion is this meant to convey now?

@wrduckdog

I've talked about this with @wrduckdog several times and I want to share this

Gordon is the protagonist of The Railway Series.

He is the only character we follow the ENTIRE journey of throughout the course of the books. In the very first book, he's brand new. He's a hotshot-

-and boastful. And in the last book, he humbly retires.

Gordon's journey is kind of amazing. He starts as a hotshot, his arrogance catches up with him in Off the Rails, and he grows up. We learn his history. We meet his family.

Gordon is also one of the few characters that shares a bond with each main character in some way. He and Thomas used to hate each other and eventually ally, he learns to respect Edward, he has his sibling rivalry with Henry, he tolerates James, he has his laughs with Percy, etc.
