This is a great story. Flora getting some spotlight for a change and she actually has character development. Her grudge against the road vehicles was a shock to me and I was surprised at how there was a near crash between her and Bertie.
I really loved watching this episode. didn't expect Flora the tram engine to be troublesome because she lost her tram way because of the Buses taking away her passengers. didn't expect her to try and damage Bertie
I expected the story to have Flora hating road vehicles at first, breaking down or having an accident, getting helped by Bertie, and learning not to be prejudiced. I was quite delighted when it exceeded my expectations and basically had Flora go "TIME FOR BERTIE THE BUS TO BITE THE DUST". What fun.
I like the idea of flora having a dislike for road vehicles and I how Jim helped her about the whole-or-deal. And it was also pretty humorous to see her try to straight up kill Bertie but I’m so glad that her driver stop her before the collision. This was a really good episode (my favorite so far).
I know Toby once had a bad experience with road vehicles, but at least he's wise enough to know their purpose to help the railway and is even good friends with Bertie and his friends. For Flora, that's a whole different level and I too was shocked of how she almost tried to murder Bertie after the Vicarstown Tramway closed down. I also like how you gave Jim another role to give her wise words about holding a grudge even after his previous experience with the NWR. As for Flora herself, while she is still my most hated character in the show, but when it comes to fan-content, I do really like the headcanons that every user made and I agree that she could possibly work for the Vicarstown Tramway.
Because she ruined Toby's originality of being the only steam tram on the NWR and was like a few HiT era characters was made as just a toy that they can sell.
From what I can tell, there’s only 5 episodes left, counting this as one. I’m glad that you are giving engines that were introduced and were only given one or two episodes some spotlight, especially Flora here as she only had one episode and mentioned in another
@@soupman941 Yeah, 13 episodes in total, if you click the video, it shows all the preview episodes for 2022. As of now, there’s one about Floura, Oliver & Boco, Sir Handel and Luke, Scotsman, Toby and the bus. 5 episodes left
Honestly really excited to see some of these museum engines, makes them feel more like a part of the series rather than being there for the sake of being there
Again, very good story not going to lie I freeze when I saw Flora charging towards Bertie. Also, can't wait to see what you have planned for Halloween.
I can see your point but I can’t think of any alternative for as punishment. Most people during the live chat wanted her scrapped but considering she’s a museum piece that’s just historical vandalism. That’s like ripping up a country’s constitution. Having her being sent to her shed and learn about the importance that road vehicles serve is good enough to me since it would her to understand the idea of them and there usefulness.
@@NWR1991 Fair enough. Maybe if it was emphasize that she didn’t want to overly damage Bertie but just wanted to bump him and give him a good scare, I would be a bit more empathetic. Then maybe it could’ve led to a second part where Flora is sent to the Shunting yard until she can be trusted again, and while there she slowly begins to appreciate the hard work road vehicles too. Maybe she could even prove she’s worked past her prejudice as she prevents a nasty road accident? However regardless of how I would’ve done it I appreciate that you’re able to take the constructive criticism. Overall I really like the episode, I just think I would’ve done a few things differently. But hey that’s just my personal taste. Anyway keep up the good work.
@@NWR1991 That's what happened to a popular American locomotive which was cit up on site, due to the owner not having any luck in attempts of moving it. That engine would be Grand Trunk Western 5629. That's a good example of Historical Vandalism.
I really doubt that she would watch one of my videos but I don't really care what she thinks about transgendered people. To me they are people who just want to be loved and accepted.
@@NWR1991 same. It's bonkers how there are so many people online (including some people in this very fandom sadly) who have nothing better to do but demonize trans folx.
As much as I respect and admire the late Queen Elizabeth, despite the major baggage that her family had done generations before towards first natives. But I won’t be making an episode about her passing because I might end up recreating ‘Regrets’ or ‘Farewell Old Friend’ again. Not everything or everyone needs a story.
Hello Mr. 1991 I wanted to let you know that you have a character named after me! This makes me feel very nice given the fact that Kaiden is a very uncommon name :)
While I’m glad you like it I will say that he’s not mine as he is WildNorWester’s and that his name, according to the former, is spelt with a C ‘Caden’.

Flora almost reminds me of George The Steam Roller but minus the whole "Tear up into roads" when he had a hatred for Steam Engines.
This is what I love about the fandom. Taking meh characters and giving them well character and proper backstory.

I like the little detail that the replica Glynn has been renamed to Topham. Another smashing story

this certainly builds up the character of Flora the steam tram engine.
Why do you hate Flora more than any other character in the show?
Because she ruined Toby's originality of being the only steam tram on the NWR and was like a few HiT era characters was made as just a toy that they can sell.

Nice Development Story for Flora who was rather a Forgotten Character.
Seeing her character development like that really put me on the edge of my seat. You’ve really made Flora interesting. Fantastic job! 👍🏻
This shows that grudges and prejudices are silly notions that can lead to actions we'll regret
Again, very good story not going to lie I freeze when I saw Flora charging towards Bertie. Also, can't wait to see what you have planned for Halloween.
I found this to be a very interesting episode. didn't expect Flora to be a Troublesome tram engine
Watching these videos honestly make my day! It's bringing me back to when I used to watch thomas dvds when I was little🥺❤️
This is an amazing story. Love Flora’s character in this.
So Flora is pretty much like Bulgy and George and I like how you've added a BP garage to Sodor
This video was great and I can see how this video reflects about Jim’s past
Its nice to see Flora back
Who knew your series would last for 10 yrs that crazy
Loved it. Glad you're giving characters older fans like myself aren't familiar with their due.
Wow I can't believe Flora was prejudice, this was a really interesting story.
I know I am late. But I'm amazed by this story and Flora getting some attention.
13:34 love the pride trucks in the background!
You did a great job with Flora. I wish she was in more stuff these days.
Well Done, I Enjoyed this Story.
I think Flora got off way too easy. This wasn’t as simple as her just teasing Bertie, she literally tried to kill him.

Very good video I liked it
This was a great flore story
What a fun story, can't wait for the next installment of your series' timeline. Also, just noticed the LGBT trucks on Kelsthorpe Road
would the visitors have brought their tickets before hand or is the train rides part of the entrance fee to the museum?
Topham, I love that name for him.
Nicely done!
4:58 where we see Jim Mavis is behind him I think the next Thomas the tank engine story on her go to vicarstown
That’s not even Mavis that was Caden who was mentioned by name a few seconds earlier.
13:47 J. K. Rowling is gonna go ballistic when she sees this

Will you write a story to commemorate the loss of Queen Elisabeth II?🥺

@@NWR1991 okay, it's just a thought.
@@NWR1991 hear hear. Plus even in the UK and especially in certain constituent countries (i.e. Australia), not everyone's a monarchist.
