The human dialogue and the editing are some of the many stand out things about this. I think I relate to that new guy all too well, especially the past few years. Expertly done! The song choices were 🔥
How much I love Trampy's Henry voice. He sounds like he's a little congested and also grumpy. And I'm also happy to hear Suddy Soap Bar after a long while, voicing Topham. Been watching his videos for a long time. His skits are funny
It's been God knows how long since Suddy Soap Bar has voiced Topham or anyone! I still have Percy screaming "OH NO!!! HES ON HIS MCDONALD'S RUN!!!! D:" stuck in my soul. 😂
Literally Thomas fans are the most creative when it comes to making fan animations. This story is so well shot that it looks like an actual episode of the series.
Absolutely spot-on! I hardly knew about those "not to be moved" boards, but now I get why they're in place. And Gordon truly deserved that board for being so impatient even after one cleaner forgot to remove it! 😆
They're there to stop you getting injured or killed by the engine moving unexpectedly, particularly when you're hip deep in the motion in-between the frames or underneath it where nobody can see you. Over here in the states, we have the "Men at Work" or blue flag protection that serves the same purpose. The engine or car with a blue flag on it is not to be moved, coupled on to, or otherwise disturbed until the flag/lamp is taken off. Person who puts it on is the one who takes it off, and it's their responsibility to make sure the equipment is safe to move, no dragging equipment, safety chains/chocks still in place, etc. Quickest way to getting sacked is a blue flag violation.
This isn't the first time Gordon completley lost his cool and sanity. Forever and ever Keeping up with Castle Percy's First Christmas Tobias And The Half-Pariah
god this is beautiful that cut at 4:53 from motorhead's the ace of spades had me in stitches. this whole thing is just marvelous and was so worth the wait. Kudos to you and all who helped make this possible.
10:17 Something I want to note is how Topham’s face in this scene basically shows that Topham has seen Gordon pull stupid stunts so much already that he’s just tired of it.
Safety is something WISE bosses simply DO NOT negotiate about. Especially today. If you cannot follow basic safety protocol, you DONT get to even LEGALLY work, period. Put it this way: EVERY rule in the OSHA manual is written in blood. Gordon was lucky his impatience merely knocked the man down. Doubly so Sir Toppham let him off with a LIGHT punishment of being shunted for a spell.
Gordon nearly kills a man and other stories. I love the RWS models, rolling stock, routes and figures! I hope we get more videos like these with voice cast members in the future! :) I love hearing Trampy coming back to life since his stroke from "Push me, pull you". 🚢🤪😊 7:52: Gordon death stare. 🤣😂😡😠💢💙 You don't f**k with Gordon and other stories. What do you use to record the footage since that was not mentioned in the credits?
I'm not finished the video yet but I just wanted to say I'm actually cracking up at this The delays on British Rail are bad enough, I'd hate to imagine what the North Western would be like haha
That was an incredible story. Gordon really had a dislike for the new cleaner. He really doesn't like being late, nor does he like being made to look silly. I hope he has learnt his lesson after that. Well done to the whole voice cast for their performances 👏.
I would actually love to see a continuation of this or similar videos. Filmography was stellar, casting was well picked, and the humor was so damn great (I was laughing my ass off at Gordon getting late every single time and him staring down that poor cleaner XD)
Suddery, you have out done yourself with this video honestly. The camera shots were so beautiful, the voice actors did well, and the music and sound effects in it were so amazing to watch. This just made my day 10/10 Fr!
Well this looked a little more abrasive than what you wrote for us to adapt Station Master... About thrice more impactful, especially how Jake made Gordon EXTREMELY non-negotiable to the other engines that evening, with a firm enough reason to leave him be in his absolute ignorance during his very rant! Karma however certainly seemed to hit him pretty hard after unwisely hurting poor Tim without knowing he was still there!
What a fantastic job making an adaptation to this story. And making it a RWS style too. I think this is the first time I ever seen you do it. Well done working on this adaptation. Keep up the great work and take your time on your next video project!
Legit thought that Tim was in a bar fight But than I remembered it’s a Gordon story, of course Tim being in a bar fight was too obvious to be the truth (Let’s pray TH-cam doesn’t strike this as “made for kids”)
I cracked up when fire was shown literally in Gordon’s eyes.I’d like to think that’s just a metaphor for how mad he actually looked lol. Also,I literally called it before Gordon left, I thought,”He’s going to leave without permission isn’t he?” Because that’s so him to storm out like that. Good job!This episode felt it came right out of the tv show!
This was magnificent! I applaud you and everyone who took part of this amazing video! This felt like a railway series story indeed! Well done Suddery! And well done to the cast and crew who took part in Not to Be Moved! One of your best videos in a long time!
Coincidentally, I recently rewatched Richard's Midnight Runners, just in time to hear Knapford Harbour sell it as Gordon once again here, much to my surprise.
This is unreal! Things I didn’t know I needed: Murdoch in LMS crimson Paxton as Tidmouth station pilot (brilliant idea, it’s the perfect choice and I’m sooooo stealing that for my own head cannon) The engines knowing the names of the crew / workers. Of course they would know the cleaners name and thank them by name This is brilliant work. If I could like it a second time I would!
Now this! This is how you make realistic Thomas the tank engine work! I love everything about this video down to the littlest detail! 1. the realism - the amount of effort you put into making this as realistic as possible is extraordinary! Every engine looks exactly like their real-life counter parts, Gordon looks just like an actual A1, Henry looks exactly like a Black 5, Bertie looks like an actual British Bus, Daisy looks like an actual Diesel Rail car, Paxton looks like an actual Class 08 diesel also James and Percy look like their real basis as well and also giving the engines real sounding whistles was a good touch, Gordon has the whistle of an actual A1 which adds to the realism, the station that Gordon departs (either Knapford or Tidmouth) looks just like an actual British station and the PA system was also a nice touch because it sounds very similar to the PA system of Kings Cross Also, I found it hilarious that one of the stops of the express was Crewe which is where Henry had his overhaul. Nice touch! 2. The voices - good idea on having individual voice actors for each of the engines, having Trampy as Henry was a really good idea! since Trampy nails the Henry impression! Having the BuriedTruck as the Narrator was a good idea too! 3. some of the scenes were really good! I like the part where Douglas said, "what were you gonna do, throw hands?" made me cackle like a hyena! Also having Gordon literally having fire in his eyes was really funny as well! Overall, Incredible work! I really hope you make more like this in future! P.S - I assume that engine next to James at 6:42 is Jinty?
It's probably a cold take, but this is genuinely your best video to date. The cinematography, the bits and bobs here and there that make the characters feel alive, and the music chosen all elevate this heavily above most content out there in my eyes. The cast did a stellar job too, and seeing Jake voice Gordon is always a treat. Overall, excellent video with great writing and attention to detail. I am really looking forward to hopefully seeing more content like this.
Man this was phenomenal. I love the shots especially the scene of Gordon going at high speed. I even like the music in the said scene. That’s such a phenomenal work and great story. I love the choice of the hybrid between RWS/TVS style. Keep up the awesome work.
This is an excellent story! I work on trains for a living, locking out switches and tagging out of service equipment properly can be the difference between going home safe or not going home at all. So clever to use these practices in a Thomas story! Bravo!
This was a very well put-together story! I think the best parts was when Young Tim McCreedy tried to apologize to Gordon and Gordon just looked at him with... like that... as well as Gordon's late express run trying to make up for lost time having to wait for Paxton as well as Bill and Ben's misfortune. You also assembled a top tier voice cast too!
This is simply marvelous. THis story has the right amount of humor, but took itself seriously and didn't sugarcoat how serious of what Gordon could've done to Tim. Tim was new and no matter how late you could be, being late is way better than any potential of accidently killing someone. Gordon very much deserves not to moved for quite some time. He better thinking long and hard about his actions and how he can be better, perhaps thinking of ways to apologizing to poor Tim. Also I do hope his crew gets a punishment too. If they only had just not listened to Gordon and looked for Tim, it wouldn't have happened. Seaking of Gordon and Tim, they along with the rest of the cast, both named and nameless as well as the engines, rolling stocks and humans, make the world feel so alive and real of the way they interact with each other. The engines feels like the old time friends/found family they always have been, either they were just gathering around in front of the sheds just to hang out and catch up or they knows they can't reason with Gordon when he is like this because they know him all to well and just wisely leave him be or just making fun of Gordon, not paying mind he is in a foul mood. Like you get the feeling these engines have known each other for years and it shows. Then you get the the human cast. Like the part with the cleaning crew making Tim feel like a part of the team by inviting him out to eat along wth that little dialouge of one the guys oweing the other guy food to Gordon's crew grumpily exchaning wards with the...yard manager I assume? Even the interations between humans and engines feels geneuine. Like we aren't strangers of human characters interacting with other humans characters or engines, but this feels genuine and real. I think I've seen so much human drama in other fan stories/series of Thomas so just seeing people act like people that act like genuine normal people I'd normally see n a daily basis feels like a breath of fresh air. Not that human drama can't work with Thomas. It's just nice to see people not being insanely evil or flat out jerks, ya know? I also need to say for your first time doing a hybrid of the RWS/TV style, you've just nailed it. I'm partial to the Tv styles myself only because I grew up with that, but I do love some the illustrations from the RWS. I've seen some belnds of RWS/TV before, but this feels jsut the right amout of both styles. Like I love characters the fact you used characters from across the Thomas media. From RWS exclusives, Model era exclusives, and CGI era exclusives. They all feel right together. The models simply looks gorgous. I was litterally squeling with delight of a RWS and possible model series Paxton would look. I'd foudn myself pausing and looking more closely at the hyrbid models. I can't help it. They look so good. The Va's did a wonderful job too. The nailed each of their character roles. Always a pleasure to hear Jake as Gordon. He just really captures Gordon so well. He's one my top favorites for the voice for Gordon. From his over the top dramatics and his fancy way of insulting to his genuine trying to convincing the Fat Controller (and I say to himself) that he wasn't entirely at fault of Tim's injuries. I also need to say I love how Gordon is portrayed here. This is an older Gordon, having a better rein at his temper for the most part by trying to calm himself by saying to himself that he can make up time to his genuine remorse of knowing he hurt Tim unintentially. Gordon has lessons that stuck and has a heart to him, but he still the over dramatic Gordon we all grown to love. Hopefully, he'll get his redemption that feels very earned and give Tim the apology he deserves. Overall, this was a wonderful video to watch. If you ever consider to do more of this hybrid style, I'd say go for it! The hybrid models and the entire hyrbid world looks beautiful and I'd love to see what you could do more with it! Also forgive me for any typos. ^^;
This is High Quality, I love it! The stern eyes at 7:52 had me laughing, you can really see the raging hellfire in them. (Apologies if this sounds weird, it's meant to be a compliment.)
I've always been a big fan of this story, since it uses the three strikes formula in a way exponentially better than HiT ever could. Absolutely fantastic adaptation! One of the best pieces of Thomas fan content I've ever seen! The wait for this one was absolutely worth it.
'Bout choked on my drink laughing at "That, wee Paxton, is the sound of someone who's been mildly inconvenienced....We're in for a long night!" from Douglas, and Gordon's crew just walking away without a word like, "Nope. Not this again..."
Love a gordon focused story and was very cinematic and beautiful. The angles and shots and the set design was great too. Love seeing a story in a RWS style ,would love to see more stories in the future like it. Fantastic work as always.
A good story, when I worked in St Pancras, we also had the exact same rule. Whoever placed the Not To Be Moved boards on the train while it was being tanked with water for the bathroom and kitchen, was the only one who removed it. But with us the boards had flashing lights and we had to put key tags with our names on. Funny how even simple boards have changed, enjoyed the educational story.
Dude this is honestly my favorite story byfar. When it cut to Tim having cuts and bruises, i honestly thought it was because he got beat up by the other cleaners/workmen, so you can bet James' red paint that i was shocked to learn it was actually Gordon setting off with Tim on the ladder. Peak story telling with a peak twist. Also, LET'S GO, TRAMPY AS HENRY!
Absolutely loved “Ace of Spades” playing during Gordon’s mad dash. One of the best parts of this. Absolutely top notch, with some great music choices. Fantastic video as always!
The cinematography and editing in this is stupid artsy and I love it so much! Not to mention the great music choices. As always, you and everyone else involved did a great job on this and I would love to see you do more RWS hybrid videos
This is incredible my guy! It’s also really incredible how’ve you’ve used various of voice actors for the first time in your videos. Amazing work to everyone involved here, can’t wait to see what you have got for us next! Also the music choices, and shots were very nice :)
Wow. Just wow. This is beautiful. The modelwork, the camerawork, the editing, it was all SUPERB! The voice cast did an outstanding job too! Well done to everyone involved, and I REALLY look forward to see what you cook up next!
Yo!!!! I just randomly found this, this is fuking amazing!!! So glad I didn't click off and gave it a sec - I'm a grown man child these days, and while I still have a fondness and nostalgia for the model series (1-5), that I watched until you would have thought the VHS player would have broke, unlike TheUnluckyTug (who I see in the comments), I don't really go back and revisit it so much, maybe if the mood hits me right - But THIS, I can watch this! The cameos of random engines, how the people live and work in the world (going to the pub), the great voice acting, the music, and then Gordon pulling the express all pissed off to Motorhead - YESSS! Dude, thank you! and more! Please!
I know I've already commeted on this, but i keep coming back to it, it's just so flipping good, my favorite part is using Ace Of Spades playing over Gordon tearing up the countryside trying to make up time, and Jake as Gordon is always a plus to any video. You genuinely put your heart and soul into this. I love it so so much. Your so good at Thomas content!!!!!
Love everything about this video but I really wanna shout out the banter scene at the sheds with all the engines. Just wonderful, it’s like it’s actually straight out of a RWS book!
Such a great story. The shots are great and so is everything else. I absolutely love the part where Gordon has flames in his eyes. It's not hard to imagine what he's saying but it's definitely for the best we don't actually hear it.
This story is peak
Carson love your newest video
I’m a big fan
In a huge fan Carson
This was wonderful! Really fun editing here, and some great shot compositions! Always nice to hear Jake as Gordon again too. Well done!

True Jake And Trampy Are Very Good Voices For Gordon And Henry
Hi tug
Unlucky tug is Suddery station masters #1 fan
Hello tug I am a big fan of and I have for 4 years
6:33 Yes! Trampy has risen to voice Henry!
The human dialogue and the editing are some of the many stand out things about this. I think I relate to that new guy all too well, especially the past few years. Expertly done! The song choices were 🔥
I loved the people dialog, felt so human
This is so fun. I love how animated you made these characters, Gordon's glare was a highlight for me. Great stuff!
I agree! That cleaner has guts, if something that big looked at me like that I'd probably need a change of pants.
Gordon's fiery glare would give Paddington Bear a hard stare for his money or jar of marmalade.
the shots and editing in this made me holler and clap loudly, absolutely crazy
very glad to be a part of this :-)
@@TheRealTrampyGreetings Trampy! ;D
I hope you're doing ok after your stroke from "Push me, pull you".
Better watch out! someone is copying your Henry impression. They might overshadow you. 😊
Pretty obvious where Trampy leaves his mark when you hear him act for one of the character you know that’s his “killroy was here”
Love how natural the Henry voice sounds, good job trampy!
I love that we all looked at you and said "Yeah that guy is Henry."
How much I love Trampy's Henry voice. He sounds like he's a little congested and also grumpy. And I'm also happy to hear Suddy Soap Bar after a long while, voicing Topham. Been watching his videos for a long time. His skits are funny

Literally Thomas fans are the most creative when it comes to making fan animations. This story is so well shot that it looks like an actual episode of the series.
Fun fact: this isn’t an animation, it’s just a game on steam!
This is actually filmed in TRS19! A railway simulator.
I like how you can hear the ladder fall to the ground at 8:43, a nice little attention to detail to the scene later on.
HiT, Take Notes. THIS is how you make a "Repeats Same Mistake" story.
how do i tell him
7:59 the eyes of pure fiery rage had shook me for a second but what a bit of animation
“Silence yourself at once” 😂
The part where Douglas asks "what were you gonna do, throw hands?" had me laughing so hard
Easily your best video to date, my friend. It was a real privilege to be your humble narrator!
"Hi Gordon... I, uh..."
"kill..."
1:23 I love that the cleaner is humming Gordon’s theme.
Absolutely spot-on! I hardly knew about those "not to be moved" boards, but now I get why they're in place. And Gordon truly deserved that board for being so impatient even after one cleaner forgot to remove it! 😆
They're there to stop you getting injured or killed by the engine moving unexpectedly, particularly when you're hip deep in the motion in-between the frames or underneath it where nobody can see you.

I've seen some belnds of RWS/TV before, but this feels jsut the right amout of both styles. Like I love characters the fact you used characters from across the Thomas media. From RWS exclusives, Model era exclusives, and CGI era exclusives. They all feel right together. The models simply looks gorgous. I was litterally squeling with delight of a RWS and possible model series Paxton would look. I'd foudn myself pausing and looking more closely at the hyrbid models. I can't help it. They look so good.
The Va's did a wonderful job too. The nailed each of their character roles. Always a pleasure to hear Jake as Gordon. He just really captures Gordon so well. He's one my top favorites for the voice for Gordon. From his over the top dramatics and his fancy way of insulting to his genuine trying to convincing the Fat Controller (and I say to himself) that he wasn't entirely at fault of Tim's injuries.
I also need to say I love how Gordon is portrayed here. This is an older Gordon, having a better rein at his temper for the most part by trying to calm himself by saying to himself that he can make up time to his genuine remorse of knowing he hurt Tim unintentially. Gordon has lessons that stuck and has a heart to him, but he still the over dramatic Gordon we all grown to love. Hopefully, he'll get his redemption that feels very earned and give Tim the apology he deserves.
Overall, this was a wonderful video to watch. If you ever consider to do more of this hybrid style, I'd say go for it! The hybrid models and the entire hyrbid world looks beautiful and I'd love to see what you could do more with it! Also forgive me for any typos. ^^;
I theorize Tim was off fetching the ladder and that's why his crew didn't see him at all
And the fact he got Trampy as Henry is even better!
This is High Quality, I love it!
The stern eyes at 7:52 had me laughing, you can really see the raging hellfire in them.
(Apologies if this sounds weird, it's meant to be a compliment.)
Y’know, I think this actually may be my favourite fan made video. Like this is peak
I've always been a big fan of this story, since it uses the three strikes formula in a way exponentially better than HiT ever could. Absolutely fantastic adaptation! One of the best pieces of Thomas fan content I've ever seen! The wait for this one was absolutely worth it.
'Bout choked on my drink laughing at "That, wee Paxton, is the sound of someone who's been mildly inconvenienced....We're in for a long night!" from Douglas, and Gordon's crew just walking away without a word like, "Nope. Not this again..."
4:40 I really like the music that was picked for this part.
This vid introduced me to ace of spades, now it's apart of my North Western express play list
Love a gordon focused story and was very cinematic and beautiful. The angles and shots and the set design was great too. Love seeing a story in a RWS style ,would love to see more stories in the future like it. Fantastic work as always.
4:52 has got to be the best editing I’ve seen on a TTTE vid in a while.
A good story, when I worked in St Pancras, we also had the exact same rule. Whoever placed the Not To Be Moved boards on the train while it was being tanked with water for the bathroom and kitchen, was the only one who removed it. But with us the boards had flashing lights and we had to put key tags with our names on. Funny how even simple boards have changed, enjoyed the educational story.
You worked at St Pancras
What was your job?
@ I was a dispatcher.
@@scottdance72 oooh! cool!
I absolutely loved this!
I love the casual showings of how the work place runs and how the crews and workers interact!
Great showing!
I love every video you make
I love this hybrid style. I love the voice cast. I love the story. I love everything about this story. Please make more of these.
Dude, this is incredible!!! Everything about this, the humor, the editing, the voice acting, all amazing! You cooked so hard!!!
Dude this is honestly my favorite story byfar. When it cut to Tim having cuts and bruises, i honestly thought it was because he got beat up by the other cleaners/workmen, so you can bet James' red paint that i was shocked to learn it was actually Gordon setting off with Tim on the ladder. Peak story telling with a peak twist. Also, LET'S GO, TRAMPY AS HENRY!
I thought he had gotten into a fight at the pub
The use of modern songs in fan Thomas stories is something I haven’t seen before but now I want to see more of it since the chosen songs fit so well
Incredibly composed story! Clever, cinematic, and good humor too. Always love Trampy as Henry.
Absolutely loved “Ace of Spades” playing during Gordon’s mad dash. One of the best parts of this. Absolutely top notch, with some great music choices. Fantastic video as always!
The cinematography and editing in this is stupid artsy and I love it so much! Not to mention the great music choices.
As always, you and everyone else involved did a great job on this and I would love to see you do more RWS hybrid videos
£5.50 for a pint!!! Ruddy hell I sympathise with the crew there.
This is a most excellent production. Fantastic work!
Good choice on using Tampy for Henry's voice. I've been watching his videos lately.
This is incredible my guy! It’s also really incredible how’ve you’ve used various of voice actors for the first time in your videos. Amazing work to everyone involved here, can’t wait to see what you have got for us next!
Also the music choices, and shots were very nice :)
What a way for Gordon to get all red in the face and have fire in his eyes. Hadn't seen the latter coming, but that was very good.
Only one word to describe this masterpiece: “CLEAN”
7:58
Gordon: One day you will have to answer for your actions… *and god may not be so merciful*
Hmm this is new. I can't wait for this RWS story. Also if you need a narrator for some of your videos, how do I audition
Just noticed Toad was humming a tune, really neat! Even the small details help this video
I can't begin to describe just how fantastic the models, camerawork and voice acting were. Can we also talk about how PEAK the song choices were?
Wow. Just wow.
This is beautiful. The modelwork, the camerawork, the editing, it was all SUPERB! The voice cast did an outstanding job too! Well done to everyone involved, and I REALLY look forward to see what you cook up next!
i love how Trampy voiced Henry in this
Was not expecting that twist, bravo!
Absolutely loved this, one of my favorites from you!
Yo!!!! I just randomly found this, this is fuking amazing!!! So glad I didn't click off and gave it a sec - I'm a grown man child these days, and while I still have a fondness and nostalgia for the model series (1-5), that I watched until you would have thought the VHS player would have broke, unlike TheUnluckyTug (who I see in the comments), I don't really go back and revisit it so much, maybe if the mood hits me right - But THIS, I can watch this! The cameos of random engines, how the people live and work in the world (going to the pub), the great voice acting, the music, and then Gordon pulling the express all pissed off to Motorhead - YESSS! Dude, thank you! and more! Please!
this was absolutely PEAK!!! Keep up the great work (I still can't believe you got THE Trampy for Henry, again Keep up the great work)
8:03 My Arthur, slowly moving his eyes to the new Cleaner, and whispers: "R u n ."
Comedy at it's finest! Well done, mate!
As awsome as the TV style episodes are its about time we've seen something RWS style(at least im guessing that's what it's supposed to be)
I know I've already commeted on this, but i keep coming back to it, it's just so flipping good, my favorite part is using Ace Of Spades playing over Gordon tearing up the countryside trying to make up time, and Jake as Gordon is always a plus to any video. You genuinely put your heart and soul into this. I love it so so much. Your so good at Thomas content!!!!!
The vibes here are immaculate and are perfect for rws stories. We definitely need more of this
That felt like an actual Thomas the Tank Engine story written by Audrey. Loved it 👍
More like something you'd see by Andrew Brenner
This is Amazing, I Enjoyed that, well done.😃👍, btw Trampy did a great Job Voicing Henry, it is Totally Superb.
Love everything about this video but I really wanna shout out the banter scene at the sheds with all the engines. Just wonderful, it’s like it’s actually straight out of a RWS book!
Ladies and gentlemen the legend has peaked once more
Such a great story. The shots are great and so is everything else. I absolutely love the part where Gordon has flames in his eyes. It's not hard to imagine what he's saying but it's definitely for the best we don't actually hear it.
Gordon has the most scariest face masks for some people who looked at the Model Series when they were smol beans... 😂
I hope Gordon can be trusted again I hope there will be a sequel
So Gordon's crew just didn't have a quick little look around him before taking the board off?
Otherwise, great video.
Also, Simpsons: Hit & Run music?
Thats what I thought, the cleaner obviously wasn't "nowhere to be seen"
I guess his driver and fireman were incompetent lol
I remember a version of this story where the cleaner was actually under Gordon's tender and that's why his crew didn't see him
Yes, had the ladder been placed at the back of Gordon's tender that would have been perfect. Otherwise, they should be able to notice him.
@@ShukakuTheCrazy1Which version is that?
