My Ideal Gordon

- If something you grew up with still holds up, by all means, don’t abandon it. But I’m a firm believer in recognising and addressing kinks in such things and regarding things the way they are instead of how I remember them. Story structure means a lot to me, I strive to consider appeal from several angles, including but not limited to that of an average railfan, and I have been asked by viewers on many occasions what to my mind works and doesn’t work with various aspects of Seasons 1 to 5 of Thomas The Tank Engine & Friends.

you know in my au gordon IS great northern, and where he got his name gordon, simple his driver was drunk,so he sliired the words greath northern, into gordon since he didnt have nameplates , the name gordon stuck.
hell my backstory is simular to yours, i love the fact we both thought his name was a misunderstanding thats so cool.
Yeah, let a drunk person drive a steam locomotive
but no the driver didnt drive drunk he did so a the crews quarters @@Sudriantank743
@@Sudriantank743You never know maybe the driver was done with work for the day or smth
Driver: heeey, heey!
Great Northern: look sharp, drivers drunk
Another engine: I can tell, I’m uhh, I’m just going to go
Great Northern: yeah, good call
Driver: heey, groud northan! I’m sorry I’m not your driver today greoud gordaaaan!
Great Northern: I’ve told you, day in, day out, to *not* drink so much before work, if manager hears about this, your fired
Driver: why do I- ate.. party!
Great Northern: ..what?
Driver: don’t be so scuckt greauad..
Great Northern: I can’t handle this anymore..
Driver: what’s wrong Gouad Gordaaaaan?
Great Northern: the issue is- hmm.. Gordon.. I quite like it
Driver: you lika da tissue?
Great Northern: what- oh never mind..
Good work, it would be really cool if we got a Toby next
The GWR gang, or some of the narrow gauge engines? Spencer, or maybe Diesel 10!?
1. I Knew There Won't Be Much To Talk About Gordon, But The Idea of
Making Him an LNER Raven A2 Is Brilliant. And Kinda Funny.
2. I Need To Ask You Something:
If There Was Something, You'd Like To Change About Your Ideal James,
What Would It Be?
3. If You'll Ever Talk About Your Ideal Toby, I'll Be Shocked, Honestly.
YES! I’d love to see Murdoch or the Scottish Twins next.
Are there any ideal road vehicles, you'd like to see/ show? Bertie for e.g would br a neat one
These small model recreation videos are pretty nice to watch. I would love to see Toby or Diesel in this style as well.
Honestly, I love your version of the engines/history of Sodor, even though it's not something I'd do in my own head canon.
Your ideas, modifications and reasonings are extremely interesting in their own right, and researched. Plus you have an excellent presentation voice.
Side note I think TheUnluckyTug's use of an LNER D26 for his Edward model makes me want to see a purely LNER Sodor (and an LMS version too).
D16
I really like your take on Gordon,
Would like to see a certain tram engine next
Could do your ideal Diesel?
Honestly, Gordons model is Great in all but having a blue face yeah no
Very fascinating explanation, the edit of your own take on Gordon is amazing. An LNER Raven A2, with a modified boiler, still has Crewe elements from his rebuilt. I like how you explained how Gordon got his name, originally meant to be called Core but was mistaken for Gordon and so it stuck. Really look forward to see what your ideal characters or history of Sodor is like.
I Know, Right?
I'll Be Honestly Shocked, If He Talks About His Ideal Toby.
@@PCMan8922I could say the same for the rest of the cast like the Scottish twins or the western duo.
@@ScorchZane, True. However, Oliver Would Be an Interesting Topic.
@@PCMan8922 on that we can agree on
@@ScorchZane, I'm EscapedEngine's First Channel, Btw.
I’d love to see you take on some more obscure characters. Specifically Hank, Murdoch, Arthur and Neville are the 4 I’d like to see you cover.
Hank, Neville and Murdoch Can Stay, What Basis, They Are, But Arthur.
Maybe There Will Be Something About Him.
I like your designs, can you do Toby next?
A thought of how Cor becomes "Gordon." Passenger runs onto the platform late, thinks the message is saying what trains are where. Hears "Gordon's on platform 3." despite the message only being for 62404
I love the idea of a Raven A2 on sodor. However... not Gordon. I would personally make 87546 into an A2 for some real hardcore competition to Gordon. But the idea of a one-off A2 rebuild sounds very interesting.
Perhaps Gordon could possibly work as an A2.
You have to do toby I mean he’s the lovable grandpa!!!
WHY IS GORDON'S FACE BLUE?!
0:12 am I the only one who likes the A1/1? seriously it looks way better than a normal A1
Can you do Toby next?
Why do you make the faces their color?
Donald and Douglas
Am I allowed to use this headcanon?
Sure.
Honestly I’d like to see your take on the Skarloey Railway (assuming you changed anything)
Donald and douglas
Wow, the rebuild Raven A2 looks so much like Model series Gordon that it could have been.
While your take is well thought out, I have a couple of issues with it. First, Gordon arriving in 1922 is important for the continuity, and secondly him being a Gresley A10 is important because he is referred to as Scotsman's brother. I don't think a Raven engine would be called a brother to a Gresley engine.
Here is my take: in Sodor-verse, Gordon simply takes the place of Great Northern, and the freakouts over the rebuild happened during his canonical rebuild and were directed at the Fat Controller instead of Thompson. I would, however, keep the external Walschaerts gear, so that he still looks like an A10.
Cool I like your take on Gordon this is mine:
He is built in 1923 and is an A1 his lner number is 4473 making him younger then scotsman while gresley was happy with his new designs he originally wanted sloped footplats on them so he tried this on great northern the prototype it is a success so he adds them to Gordon he is sold to sodor where he is nearly blown up by 98462 after he became a psycho then things play out like the railway series and he didn't go to crew to be rebuilt he went to Doncaster after ww2 and was rebuilt but asked the men to keep the sloped footplat to pay tribute to sir nigel gresley and he goes back to sodor in the spring of 1946. And things mostly play out like the railway series and seasons 5 onward once more
I say you should do Toby next to finish of the main 7
Would Toby still be a tram engine?
Curious. COR was withdrawn in 1937 but Thomas is still number 1 in your series despite presumbly being built in 1949-1951. Is there a reason for this in your universe or is it juat a goof?
It's no goof.
@MagicLampStudios Ah, I see. Is Glynn canon in your AU?
@@MagicLampStudios if thomas is in the railway series in 1946, how was he built in 1951?
I'm talking about a top-to-bottom do-over.@@Sudriantank743
@@MagicLampStudiosso basically how you would make the RWS correct?
I'd like to image that this version would eventually be rebuilt with Walschaerts valve gear, in a similar vain to the NER Class S3 (LNER B16/2 or B16/3).
A10?
Toby pls
Some of you're takes Im personally not a fan of like thomas's. But I think this one of your best.
I think COR with the funny A2 link gear would be
alot nicer looking, i guess? Makes him stand out and look grandious. Maybe add some extra red trim to the mainline fleet on the tender boogies, too? Take from the IRL Ravens?
I do like that look. I'll admit it's too tricky for me to edit. I'm not that good. Maybe one day I will be.
Plus, High-Speed Gordon was inspired by something that often happen to Stanier pacifics, so if Gordon had Crewe-built valve gear, it'd fit.
I'm on the fence. For now, I'm just going for a hybrid look.
@@MagicLampStudios Well, thankfully most simulations of the Raven A2 seem to be fairly slippy in the weather conditions in these trial runs. Could help Gordon stand out, have that beautiful but.. down right strange internal motion.
OK so update about this. I was looking it over and, I think that, since we have an outside motion in Henry, an inside motion in James. That we *should* have gordon be outside connection inside motion. *BUT* hear me out. Keep him a middle drive couple akin to the GWR engines. Same story, rebuilt at Crew, plus it would lend into the High Speed Gordon case keep closer to the insperation.
Why is his face blue💀?
It only makes sense that you tackle Toby next!
I rather call them a3s except great northern because they were rebuilt into them, flying scotsman is an a3 too, i rather have gordon as an a3
and are 3 cylindered
Next, we should get Duck or Toby
Love the hit era theme
a2s are cool they have 3 saftey valves and 2 whistles, for a lner engine 2 whistles is odd and 3 safety valves arent to common
Gordon is the prototype of the prototype 🤣 solved
Toby next (henrietta for him maybe ?)
Maybe we could get the Scottish Twins Next?
Ideal Tidmouth/knapford?
Do one with Emily
I would say toby or duck next
Toby please
my au gordon is also an a2, lots of people like it ig, its great
Do Spencer (or d199)
I'm very suspicious of you. Are you AStrayTerrier? Because:
-Your voice is similar
-Both of you had Gordon as an A2
-Both of you had Henry as a 4-6-0 version of the 7F
-Both of you had a similar looking Percy
-Both of you had Thomas as a J72
-Both of you had James a mogul version of J20 with yellow footplates
-BOTH OF YOU HAD THE SAME TREVOR MODEL
-Both of your layouts had the same style
-AStrayTerrier had coloured smokebox door, and you had coloured faces
I wouldn't even be surprised if you make Toby a female and renamed her as Elsie
That's him.
This comment aged like fine art
The LNER never had an a10. They only had a1s, a2s, and a3s, as well as the a1/2 and the a2/2s and a2/3s.
The A10 is another name for the A1
His buffers are crooked
Hey, @MagicLampStudios, I made my own ideal Thomas because you inspired me to, comment on the community post for whom you wanna see next
I'm curious about your ideal 'toby', Oliver, Bill and ben.
Please do Oliver or duck
I’d love to see Oliver because of the 13 and Douglas because I do not know whatever the hell you did with him
Why mah face blue-
If I may ask, why do you paint the faces to the same color as their paint at the end of the edit?
Duck please
Can you please do duck next
Do duck nexts
Do percy pls
Can you do Toby?
Do Toby next!
Oliver maybe
I'd like to see Toby next
I think he's a neat lookin dude
or maybe Skarloey
Do Duck please
Toby pls
why do you make the characters faces the same color as their paint? it just looks bad
I LOVE THÉ RAVEN A2s AAAAAAA
Please do Toby next
Ah, a beautiful photoshop, I think these are my favourite edits of these charecters, I'd like to see Murdock
Oliver pls
Duck
Sorry to ask, but why is Gordon’s face blue at the end? Just curious.
He just does it with every engine he redesigns at the end for a laugh, turning their face the same colour as their paint.
@@MrJoeyWheelerhe doesn't do it for a laugh, it's meant to represent the imbedded faces from rws
“Cor? OH GOR…. like Gordon..?”
Can you do 98462
gordon looks awesome let's have toby next
T O B my child next
The Faces are awful
HIS face is Blue
I would Honestly love to see your Ideal Toby
How about Toby?
After Toby, can you make Emily next?
Oooooh Ideal Toby would be cool too see
I would like to see you tackle toby or duck
toby or stanly
A10?
Emily
Why did you refer to the A1's as A10's?
Because the A1s were designated as A10 during wartime era, to distinguish them from the Thompson A1
@@metal_wheels that's smart (and I think I'll start doing that too)
Duck next.
bill and ben
Arthur pls
I'd like to see your take on either Duck, Murdoch, and/or Arthur.
We should see your ideal toby
My ideal Gordon ☝️🤓

Murdoch
Gordon was prototype engine build in 1920 sold to nwr in 1921
Did you even watch the entire video
i guess this is jusg an au
tobyyy
