Quite right! In Brian Sibley's biography of the Reverend, he made reference to Dumbo and how Casey Jr. came out 4 years before "Three Railway Engines" was published
@@thekidfromcleveland3944 Oooooo That was a GREAT story by Kipling! When I read the short story I appreciated the fact that he paid attention to railroading details for Foamers like us to enjoy
@@thekidfromcleveland3944 The author of "The Jungle Book". The original version where Kaa was an ally of Mowgli and Shere Khan had a crippled hind leg, making him a "lame tiger".
All this love for trains and we have yet to see a proper film built around the premise of trains from Disney on a whole. Like a whole feature length film.
I never knew that Walt bridged the gap between silent and sound. Amazing. So many I remember. And 'No Dogs Allowed' had to be an influence on Snoopy. Ahhh Baía
Excellent question! Look up the "Virginia and Truckee Railroad" on the internet. A small but very significant railway in Nevada (mostly) and California
One of my recently discovered favourites is 'Out of Scale' - apart from the beauty of the drawings, and the general accuracy, this was Ward Kimball and co having a gentle laugh at the hobby they shared with Walt. Walt and his back garden railroad even appeared on thew cover of a 1950's French model railroad magazine.
I whole-heartedly agree with you, Out of Scale is a marvelous picture paying homage, and a quick giggle, to Walt's Carolwood Pacific. I think trains are some of the most complex and ingenious ways of expressing animation, especially when done right at the Disney Studio or by Ward
@@alexanderip1003 Welllll Toby has cowcatchers, and there are certain engines in Walt's films (namely Toad's escape engine) that had buffers and no cowcatchers
As much as I wanted to see Walt try to adapt Thomas and Friends, Britt Allcroft's adaptation was much better, because everything she did on the show was very believable, from the engines and rolling stock, to the people and backgrounds; she wanted everything to be as real as possible. Besides, if Walt did adapt the Railway Series, I'm certain he'd put some cartoony elements in his adaptation, and Wilbert would never approve of it one bit.
I really love the steam trains. But disney trains... it makes me want to have them all in replica and in one place! all this formed my fanaticism for them hehe Thanks for uploading this. Greetings from Argentina.
I couldn't agree with you more! There are many things I can contribute to my love of trains, but I think the thing that really secured my admiration for trains was the ability as a wee lad to ride the Disneyland Railroad, practically, all the time. 4 (then 5) distinctly characteristic and charming engines with wonderful paint schemes, sounds and everything in between just showing the pinnacle of steam locomotion. Thanks for enjoying!
Can you imagine if Disney had asked the Reverend Awdry for the rights to his books and engines? I wonder what a Disney film about the Engines on the Island of Sodor would be like...
Hahaha! Boy that was rich! Ya know, I think you may have a point there, seeing has how the Railway Series was 1945 and Mickey's Choo-Choo is '29, so you could be right!
EXACTLY. If you've never seen Ward Kimball's footage of Walt at the Chicago Railroad fair from '48, it's really worth a gander. He has the biggest smile on his face the whole time hahaha
@@WaltsNephewBelieve it or not, I'm a MAJOR Thomas fan. And I watched this a good amount of times. Though I prefer Thomas And Friends when it comes to shows with steam engines, the trains here are really entertaining. Hopefully Mattel will make the show great again, and hopefully Disney will start caring for its fans again. Sadly, I doubt that'll happen.
I’ve seen the brave engineer a few times and I just realized that it’s a cartoony retelling of Casey’s last ride with a rework of the ballot of Casey jones
@@WaltsNephew another thing I like was a few other stories were adapted in the short like the part when he saved the girl is based on a similar event except switch out a girl in her 20s with a young girl
Absolutely right! The story artists took what they thought would further the character and story for the film and utilized them for the animators to have fun with (and the audience to enjoy the visual and audible artistic masterpiece in the end)
I whole-heartedly agree with you. I used the word "train" in the general sense since most are unfamiliar with the differentiation of railroad terminology between "train" and "locomotive," but thank you for noticing!
@@WaltsNephew I think, personally, its because every automobile has a single pronounced word it except the locomotive i.e car plane boat But railway machines? Lo-co
Walt was a huge rail enthusiast, and he was in good company. His fellow animators Ward Kimball and Ollie Johnston were also railfans. Walt also had his own ridable backyard train that he called the Carolwood Pacific Railroad. And because of this, almost all of the Disney parks include a railroad.
After the strain of near bankruptcy during the War years, Walt really needed a hobby so that he could get away from the Studio. Enter Ward offering to take Walt to the Chicago Railroad Fair, and the rest is history hahaha Just imagine if trains weren't part of Walt's life; the Parks would look very different, if they existed at all
@@WaltsNephew I can see why. Sometimes you need to have a hobby in order to relax, unwind, and also forget about over-working. My favorite hobbies I do enjoy is building star-ships (like the Ori Warship from Stargate SG-1 for example) out of LEGO's, bird watching, and also playing with toy Trains.
@@WaltsNephew Just yesterday I made an iconic Bad Guy alien warship from a famous classic 1970's Japanese anime TV Series called "Space Battleship Yamato" (also known in America as "Star Blazers") that many fans still watch to this very day, as well as it's 2012 reboot TV Series too. BTW............. Do you also want to know what alien warship I made out of LEGO's yesterday that I'm really really happy with?
I think that the animators (most likely Ub Iwerks) found the best way to convey the character and to express a large range of emotion would be to utilize the slats of a cowcatcher as teeth and would, therefore, make sense to use as the mouth for Mickey's Choo-Choo
What about the trains featured in live action Disney films such as _So Dear to my Heart, Pollyanna,_ or most notably _The Great Locomotive Chase?_ Or did you mainly want to focus on animated trains?
The latter is true haha This is a compilation of the trains Walt personally oversaw in his animated pictures. BUT you bring up a very good point and it is something I plan on working on: showcasing Walt's live-action trains
Walt's passion for trains was indeed quite remarkable. His life was basically about railroading when you think about it. He had an uncle who was a train engineer whom he looked up to. Plus the trains and train-like rides at Disney parks make it more obvious. Truly a great celebrity railfan. One of the top reasons I admire him
I completely agree with you! Of all the Foamers in the world, Walt is probably the best, followed closely by Ward Kimball haha It is my personal opinion that even though it was all started by a Mouse, it was really started by a love of trains
Afraid not haha I chose the name because, first off, it sounds good. Secondly, when Walt worked with children he insisted that they refer to him as Uncle Walt. And seeing as how I've looked up to Walt since I was a wee lad, I thought it only fitting to use the title Walt's Nephew as my TH-cam profile name
@@WaltsNephew That would've been awesome if you were. Guess what, 9 years ago I wrote a letter to the Walt Disney Company about an idea for an attraction. The idea was a passenger train owned by them which would've taken people on cross country trips but it would've been pulled by a steam locomotive designed to look like Casey Jr. from Dumbo, kinda like the one that looks like Thomas that the Tweetsie Railroad has. They sent me a letter back which I kept to this day. They loved my idea and were so glad to see how thoughtfully creative was. But they couldn't accept my idea due to a policy of theirs which doesn't allow them to accept ideas from non affiliates. Truth be told I wasn't expecting them to accept it but all I wanted was a reply back from them which I gladly did get. Which is why I kept their reply letter. It's a treasure to me.
Mickey's Steamroller didn't make any sense In Timber, no train was seen at all 8:02-8:06 That's a tram, not a train 10:39-11:21 Oh my god 7 policemen on a locomotive XD 15:44 Again, that's a tram
Ahhhh ok, a little explanation on my part is needed haha So the steamroller, I understand (I included it because of Mickey's appearance and the fact that the animation was so great for a steam engine, even though there weren't any rails). The Handcars in timber, I would technically consider that a train, but I that could be a matter of opinion. Toady's train chase with the 7 constables is one of the BEST animated sequences to come out of the Walt Disney Studio. And the red car from "Motor Mania," I truly think trolleys and streetcars are considered trains albeit the kind that travel only on road rails and not across the country
I remember watching "out of scale" as a kid on VHS at some summer group I went to. I also remember seeing "How to Swim" on Disney Channel. I've seen The Reluctant Dragon on the internet before, but I've never seen the rest
The Reluctant Dragon is a great picture to see Casey Jr. in his alternative form and to see the Disney Studio within its first years of operation! If you have Disney+ it's on there!
10:45 That looks both incredibly fun and horrifying all at once. Imagine being on a monstrous steam locomotive at high speed and it’s rhythmically rocking side to side like that. I’d be having the time of my life and fearing for it at the same time! 😁
That's the beauty of Ward Kimball's animation hahaha For a turn of the Century locomotive I would LOVE to be on the footplate to experience such a chase
Yes indeed! Albeit a little different, the animators wanted to have a little fun with Walt's new Carolwood Pacific by making it the focus for a cartoon
Ooooo I like your thinking there. I think that since John Lasseter is such an admirer of Disney animation, he might've gotten the base idea for anthropomorphic automobiles from Susie!
I must confess, I've never thought about finding all the houses in Walt's cartoons hahaha I have several projects in mind at the moment for future release so stay tuned for some good entertainment (if I do say so myself)
@@miscellaneoussarnian5282 Well said! Realism and following standard English railway codes are the primary premise of the original Railway Series stories. Without them, there is no sense of believability
18:31 sorry to nitpick this but with that weight between the engine and a cowboy, he probably would be dead by now, but hey it's animation after all, everything is possible
@@baumcollcsame7871 Hahaha And that's the 2 different styles of animation that people argue about: the Easter style (rubber housing and making anything out to be possible) and the Wester style (realism to the highest degree)
Merry Christmas 2020 A.D., from the GB&W Live Steamers Union!! Walt,s backyard live steamer is a 4-4-0 American built in 1873 in the Sacremento Shops of the Central Pacific RR. It is built to 1:8th scale at 1&1/2" inches equals=1' foot, with 7&1/2" guage track. Walt had his backyard railroad built into the side of the hill, with a lower level. And a upper level with tunnels and bridges. But then a rain storm and landslide destroyedost of it. The loco is Number 173, and named "Lilly Belle" to honor his wife. He built the wheels in the Studio machine shop lathe with Mr. Brodie helping him, and Bob Harpur. The loco and some cars are preserved by the Los Angeles Live Steamers Club in Griffith Park, close by to the Travel town RR Museum. Also zoo and Observatory. Even more next time, Walt knows about English live steamers because his photo is holding 1860era 2-2-2 with open footplate and shiny brass dome, plus, 1950 era photo shows him in England and running 1:16th scale loco for 3/4" to 1' with 3&1/2" guage track on raised up platform. So he might know about early Thomas stories.
Great history and Merry Christmas! There was also Walt's model for Carolwood of King George V, so it's possible he did know about the Reverend's stories!
Quite right! In my "re-releases" of this compilation, I have ensured Bongo's streamlined locomotive was included as well as the other films I neglected to notice a train
I think a Pixar trains film would be GREAT. I was disappointed with Planes: Fire and Rescue where Muir was present more than once, did not say a word and who's whistle used stock audio
In the early years disney turned a 4-4-0 into a 2-2-0 or a 0-4-0 tender engine i mean its good BUT sometimes disney makes A FUDGING 0-2-0 OR EVEN WORSE bEnDiNg TrAiNs
I do however doubt that Walt Disney himself had ever heard of Thomas the Tank Engine, at least I grew up with Thomas as well as those Disney movies. But might there come a day when his company might buy copyright to Thomas (the Tank Engine) and Friends?
That's becoming one of the questions for the ages haha Frankly, it seemed unlikely, but I predict if Season 25 bombs with audiences Mattel will have no choice but to look for a buyer
I'm thinking I will! But since there are so many films and shorts to go through I may not do it right now. However, I am currently working on a project that does include the Italian engine from Luca!
Yea, I figured I'd get a little flack from including the steamroller haha But I did appreciate Mickey wearing coveralls and, more-or-less, what a standard engineer would wear for the job
Why is it 1923-1966 when it ends at 1963? Just a simple number change and your title will be 100% accurate. Other than that though, a nice compilation!
Ahhh, there's a good reason for that. You're right, Sword in the Stone ('63) was the last film, BUT there would have been more if Walt lived longer. So that's why I end it with 1966 rather than 1963. Thanks for noticing!
I think there is great potential for Pixar to do a Trains film and a chance for them to distinguish themselves from sounding too familiar to a Thomas-type storyline
Indeed! I think, especially with early examples of animation, the more "circular" or difficult the animation would seem the more likely it would be enjoyed by the audience
You bring up a good point, and you're not alone. In my "revised and edited" version of this compilation, I include Fun and Fancy Free along with the mine train from "Snow White," but Aristocats, Pooh and Chip 'n' Dale wouldn't be able to be included in the compilation because Walt had no direct hand in those pictures
Walt was so creative when it comes to trains and railroading. I, too, am a steam enthusiast, just like him. Pounding pistons and spinning wheels just get my heart racing. Gotta love the power and beauty of steam locomotives :)
Very well put! That description alone is enough to get any true foamer going hahaha Keep an eye out on this channel during the summer. I've got a nice project coming that I hope to be as successful as this compilation here
The thing I like about the books is that you get the see the differences of how the author changes certain things here-and-there from the original film
Thank you! One day during the summer I said to myself, "I wonder just how many of Walt's cartoons featured trains in them." So I went through the list of films to double check and "voila," a little compilation for easy-to-access records of which films featured trains
1:26 I wouldn’t consider a trolley to in the trains category. I mean isn’t there a big difference between them? I know they do run on tracks and everything but I not so sure about this.
GREAT engines. I think in both instances Milt Kahl was responsible for their animation (although Mary Blair created the inspiration art for the Baia train in "Three Caballeros")
A lot of folks have been saying the same thing hahaha My mistake, I just liked the fact that Mickey was wearing coveralls and doing the engineer's bit, ya know? After all, a steamroller is just a locomotive that doesn't need rails
A compilation is in the works now! It should be viewable by early April (I like to publish a video a week so that's why it'll be a while before you can see the Consolidations)
Well thank you! I had an old schoolmate of mine that just loved the World Wars and would take to modeling scenes from WWII with Lionel trains and incorporate a few tanks as well
Not boasting or anything but my history teacher once showed us a picture of a battleship leading a line of cruisers. Immediately I could tell what the battleship's name was. The way I said it was like, "Ah, the USS Pennsylvania." Everyone else was shocked that I knew what it was.
Good work! I know the feeling. I was the only guy who didn't have to do a final presentation since I got an A both semesters in APUSH so during the finals week, for fun, I decided to put together a PowerPoint presentation to teach my fellow classmates (and my teacher) how to operate a steam locomotive. Afterwards they went "Wow, you were right. That is a bit easier than driving a car"
Good question. I'm prejudiced since I prefer Walt's storytelling over most, but I think when it comes to trains I think the Reverend and Walt are equals
I don’t know the answer to that myself hahaha I think it was stock audio the studio had on hand since this cartoon is not the only one to feature this exact same whistle
Ahhh yes, a very fair point! However, this compilation is to show all the different locomotives Walt had in his cartoon from his time in film from 1923 to '66, so I couldn't do DuckTales from 1990. Sorry about that!
Fact: Walt's animations were amazing but he didn't pay his employees fairly I felt sorry for them and in about the 1940's they went on strike refusing to work for Walt until he pays them the amount of money they wholeheartedly deserve. I actually think Walt was half good and half bad because of that.
That's more of a half fact. His viewpoint of payment rested on the amount of work and talent that went into the animation. If you were a lead doing the rough creation from your own references, you were paid well. If you were an inbetweener, inker, painter or cleanup, your animation was less because you have less strenuous work to do in your drawings. Also, if you came up with a good gag or idea for the animation, you'd get a bonus
Walt Disney would be proud and amazed at what he did he deserves a lot of credit way to go appreciate your style and time at disneyworld take care best wishes to everyone. Joe
I mean, engine drivers in Britain almost since the dawn of the railway age have given engines personalities. Sooooo sentient engines belong to the ages hahaha
Thank you, much appreciated! This is a dear hobby of mine and now I get to enjoy, and share with you the audience, a brief catalog of the trains in Walt's cartoons
Well, they do always seem to have some sort of reference to trains somewhere now-and-again. So, in my opinion, they haven't stopped using trains in either films or television haha
Very tempting! A while back someone suggested I make a compilation about the boats and now we've got one for automobiles. Honestly, I think the one for cars may be more doable since they seem a bit more easier to find hahaha Maybe I'll work on it this summer!
Infact, Thomas will finally copy what Disney’s Own Sentient Locomotives did with The All Engines Go Reboot as they both did wacky stuff and Have wheels as hands and Feet.

Sure was! Walt watched "Out of the Inkwell" and thought "What if we do the opposite?" So he put a person in the cartoon world!
5:23
I remember watching "out of scale" as a kid on VHS at some summer group I went to. I also remember seeing "How to Swim" on Disney Channel. I've seen The Reluctant Dragon on the internet before, but I've never seen the rest
The Reluctant Dragon is a great picture to see Casey Jr. in his alternative form and to see the Disney Studio within its first years of operation! If you have Disney+ it's on there!
CJR
Hahaha XD
10:45 That looks both incredibly fun and horrifying all at once. Imagine being on a monstrous steam locomotive at high speed and it’s rhythmically rocking side to side like that. I’d be having the time of my life and fearing for it at the same time! 😁
That's the beauty of Ward Kimball's animation hahaha For a turn of the Century locomotive I would LOVE to be on the footplate to experience such a chase
@@WaltsNephew q
I wonder what Disney would think of Thomas the tank engine? He'd probably adore it.
I think so. Nobody seems to specifically know if he was aware of the Railway Series or not, but I think if he did me might have done something with it
Donald gets to ride Walt's backyard rr
in " Out of Scale"
Yes indeed! Albeit a little different, the animators wanted to have a little fun with Walt's new Carolwood Pacific by making it the focus for a cartoon
I think susie the little coupe inspired disney pixar's cars because the eyes are on the wind shield instead of the headlights
Ooooo I like your thinking there. I think that since John Lasseter is such an admirer of Disney animation, he might've gotten the base idea for anthropomorphic automobiles from Susie!
@@WaltsNephewyeah but I wish that casey jr has his own show
Called casey jr and friends
Can you upload all houses in Walt Disney animated films?
I must confess, I've never thought about finding all the houses in Walt's cartoons hahaha I have several projects in mind at the moment for future release so stay tuned for some good entertainment (if I do say so myself)
@@WaltsNephew i sure do
17:09 I’m building that locomotive with my dad
this weekend (well not like a real locomotive, made with lego)
Should be a fun build!
Sure is… it’s been 9 hours, and I only have the wheels and 1 rod done cuz of plan changes for long time😅
I’ll contact ya when it’s done, alright ?
My favorites are
1.Trolley trouble
2.Reluctant dragon
3.dumbo
4.brave engineer
Excellent choices!
4:23 whenever I hear that whistle, it gives me goosebumps 😂😅
Despite the bad audio in most clips, this still makes me all warm and fuzzy.
Well thank you! That is a most appreciated comment; my sincerest apologies to you for the poor audio haha
@@WaltsNephew ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱
Cool
@@SuperFoxyRailwayProduction6702 porque en esa parte es muy consciente que aquí no salga en ferrocarriles nacionales de México
@@WaltsNephew because I'm a fan of all the Disney movies of Mickey mouse and also of Pixar and all those more that many locomotives come out
It can’t be Disney without trains
Amen to that haha There wouldn't be a Disney without trains
It can't be Thomas without realism #GetThomasBackOnTrack
@@miscellaneoussarnian5282 Well said! Realism and following standard English railway codes are the primary premise of the original Railway Series stories. Without them, there is no sense of believability
18:31 sorry to nitpick this but with that weight between the engine and a cowboy, he probably would be dead by now, but hey it's animation after all, everything is possible
You'd think that at least he'd have a little back pain haha
Don't forget IT'S JUST A CARTOON!!
@@baumcollcsame7871 Hahaha And that's the 2 different styles of animation that people argue about: the Easter style (rubber housing and making anything out to be possible) and the Wester style (realism to the highest degree)
9:15 that yellow square wheel gives me OCD
Amazing! Early as 1925 we blended live-action and cartoon.
There are ALOT of trains in these cartoons
Even bigger than the Island of Sodor
You bet your boots! Walt's engines really gives Sir Topham Hatt a run for his money haha
HAHAHAHA LOL
Imagine Donald Duck riding Duck
Hahahaha Aw man, that would be a real hum-dinger!
Because it’s USA.
@@jjoshi4858 imagine Donald Duck riding Donald.
I love the freight train in Mickey's Trailer because of the reefer cars, tank cars and the caboose.
I think it's one of those scenes in Disney animation that goes almost unmentioned in terms of sheer detail and pinpoint accuracy
Merry Christmas 2020 A.D., from the GB&W Live Steamers Union!! Walt,s backyard live steamer is a 4-4-0 American built in 1873 in the Sacremento Shops of the Central Pacific RR. It is built to 1:8th scale at 1&1/2" inches equals=1' foot, with 7&1/2" guage track. Walt had his backyard railroad built into the side of the hill, with a lower level. And a upper level with tunnels and bridges. But then a rain storm and landslide destroyedost of it. The loco is Number 173, and named "Lilly Belle" to honor his wife. He built the wheels in the Studio machine shop lathe with Mr. Brodie helping him, and Bob Harpur. The loco and some cars are preserved by the Los Angeles Live Steamers Club in Griffith Park, close by to the Travel town RR Museum. Also zoo and Observatory. Even more next time, Walt knows about English live steamers because his photo is holding 1860era 2-2-2 with open footplate and shiny brass dome, plus, 1950 era photo shows him in England and running 1:16th scale loco for 3/4" to 1' with 3&1/2" guage track on raised up platform. So he might know about early Thomas stories.
Great history and Merry Christmas! There was also Walt's model for Carolwood of King George V, so it's possible he did know about the Reverend's stories!
A good compilation, though you neglected to include the train seen in the “Bongo” segment of “Fun & Fancy Free”.
Quite right! In my "re-releases" of this compilation, I have ensured Bongo's streamlined locomotive was included as well as the other films I neglected to notice a train
Disney and his trains. :D Disney needs to make a Disney Pixar Trains movie and a Little Engine That Could movie.
I think a Pixar trains film would be GREAT. I was disappointed with Planes: Fire and Rescue where Muir was present more than once, did not say a word and who's whistle used stock audio
It won’t happen, otherwise there would be a lot of comparisons to Thomas and Friends.
In the early years disney turned a 4-4-0 into a 2-2-0 or a 0-4-0 tender engine i mean its good BUT sometimes disney makes A FUDGING 0-2-0 OR EVEN WORSE bEnDiNg TrAiNs
7:39 & 12:10.
Some fans of Thomas on social media are familiar with those trains.
Yes indeed! Casey Jr. and Casey Jones' engines are very popular
I do however doubt that Walt Disney himself had ever heard of Thomas the Tank Engine, at least I grew up with Thomas as well as those Disney movies.
But might there come a day when his company might buy copyright to Thomas (the Tank Engine) and Friends?
Good question; perhaps if the Company finds the funds to save and rejuvenate the show from where it has come, maybe might breath new life into Thomas
@@WaltsNephew I'm sorry, I have autism, I'm restricted to a low English level because of it, can you simplify that more clearly than that please?
I wonder what will happen if Mattel sold the rights of Thomas to Disney
That's becoming one of the questions for the ages haha Frankly, it seemed unlikely, but I predict if Season 25 bombs with audiences Mattel will have no choice but to look for a buyer
@@WaltsNephew Disney tried to buy Thomas in the past
@@awesometrain77 I think I remember hearing something about that a few years back haha
6:44 get good. Also my favorite train they made is Casey Jr.
Indeed! I think Casey may yet be the real star of this compilation
can you do the All Trains in Walt Disney´s Animated Films 1923-2021 pls because in the movie Luca they appears a italian train
I'm thinking I will! But since there are so many films and shorts to go through I may not do it right now. However, I am currently working on a project that does include the Italian engine from Luca!
@@WaltsNephew Well, it seems to me that there are so many trains in Disney movies that at the same time seem like a lot and greetings from México
Trust me, the list is quite extensive hahaha Also, it always strikes me how many visitors from around the world my little channel gets
Would love to have all those in my collection
Me too hahaha
A steamroller is not a train.
Yea, I figured I'd get a little flack from including the steamroller haha But I did appreciate Mickey wearing coveralls and, more-or-less, what a standard engineer would wear for the job
@@WaltsNephew Yeah a steamroller has the same technical basis as a steam locomotive but doesn’t run on tracks so it’s not a train.
I'll be sure to refrain from including a steamroller when discussing trains next time hahaha
4:45 ATSF #3751's 5 chime
You might be right!
Maybe you should do british engines when they appeared in any disney films live action or animation
Ooooo That's a snapping idea! Maybe I'd just do European engines to have a little more variety and substance. I'll let ya know if I decide to do that!
Why is it 1923-1966 when it ends at 1963? Just a simple number change and your title will be 100% accurate.
Other than that though, a nice compilation!
Ahhh, there's a good reason for that. You're right, Sword in the Stone ('63) was the last film, BUT there would have been more if Walt lived longer. So that's why I end it with 1966 rather than 1963. Thanks for noticing!
Disney created the Cars franchise in 2006 and Planes in 2013, now wait for Trains.
I think there is great potential for Pixar to do a Trains film and a chance for them to distinguish themselves from sounding too familiar to a Thomas-type storyline
0:24 Loop de Loop
Indeed! I think, especially with early examples of animation, the more "circular" or difficult the animation would seem the more likely it would be enjoyed by the audience
21:19
STEPHENSON’S ROCKET
Yeppers! The engine that set the standard for every conventional steam locomotive made after 1829
What about Fun and Fancy Free, The Aristocats, the new adventures of Winnie the Pooh episode and Chip N Dale: rescue rangers
You bring up a good point, and you're not alone. In my "revised and edited" version of this compilation, I include Fun and Fancy Free along with the mine train from "Snow White," but Aristocats, Pooh and Chip 'n' Dale wouldn't be able to be included in the compilation because Walt had no direct hand in those pictures
Walt was so creative when it comes to trains and railroading. I, too, am a steam enthusiast, just like him. Pounding pistons and spinning wheels just get my heart racing. Gotta love the power and beauty of steam locomotives :)
Very well put! That description alone is enough to get any true foamer going hahaha Keep an eye out on this channel during the summer. I've got a nice project coming that I hope to be as successful as this compilation here
@@WaltsNephew Sweet! I bet it will be great!
A lot of the music tunes sound like Coronation Scott
Possibly
Spencer’s theme
I have pigs is pigs in book form
The thing I like about the books is that you get the see the differences of how the author changes certain things here-and-there from the original film
Long live Casey senior!
Here-here!
Wow, this is a very interesting compilation~!
Thank you! One day during the summer I said to myself, "I wonder just how many of Walt's cartoons featured trains in them." So I went through the list of films to double check and "voila," a little compilation for easy-to-access records of which films featured trains
7:08 Thomas and Tugs but old style. LOL.
Ooooo I like your thinking there
CASEY JR VS BARCO FIGHT!
1:26 I wouldn’t consider a trolley to in the trains category. I mean isn’t there a big difference between them? I know they do run on tracks and everything but I not so sure about this.
It’s a trolley
Wait a second..... I just that year conditional cheated in 1966! It’s 1923-1966!!!
Yeppers, '66 is where we come to a stop haha
I liked the trains of the brave engineer and the three caballeros
GREAT engines. I think in both instances Milt Kahl was responsible for their animation (although Mary Blair created the inspiration art for the Baia train in "Three Caballeros")
3:44. That is just a steamroller and not a train.
A lot of folks have been saying the same thing hahaha My mistake, I just liked the fact that Mickey was wearing coveralls and doing the engineer's bit, ya know? After all, a steamroller is just a locomotive that doesn't need rails
What about Consolidation 2-8-0’s? Do that.
A compilation is in the works now! It should be viewable by early April (I like to publish a video a week so that's why it'll be a while before you can see the Consolidations)
Everyone is nerding out on the exact types of locomotives in these cartoons...hats off to you for your knowledge. My knowledge is dedicated to tanks.
Well thank you! I had an old schoolmate of mine that just loved the World Wars and would take to modeling scenes from WWII with Lionel trains and incorporate a few tanks as well
Not boasting or anything but my history teacher once showed us a picture of a battleship leading a line of cruisers. Immediately I could tell what the battleship's name was. The way I said it was like, "Ah, the USS Pennsylvania." Everyone else was shocked that I knew what it was.
Good work! I know the feeling. I was the only guy who didn't have to do a final presentation since I got an A both semesters in APUSH so during the finals week, for fun, I decided to put together a PowerPoint presentation to teach my fellow classmates (and my teacher) how to operate a steam locomotive. Afterwards they went "Wow, you were right. That is a bit easier than driving a car"
We watched a movie in history class. I don't remember the name but i pointed out every tank, plane , and gun we saw
Who did it better, the rev. W. Awdry, or Walt Disney?
Good question. I'm prejudiced since I prefer Walt's storytelling over most, but I think when it comes to trains I think the Reverend and Walt are equals
Agreed
Can anyone tell me what chime the whistle is for the train in Mickey's Trailer?
I don’t know the answer to that myself hahaha I think it was stock audio the studio had on hand since this cartoon is not the only one to feature this exact same whistle
ATSF #3751's 5 chime
At 4:50 what was that on the left
Good question! I honestly think the engine from "Mickey's Trailer" is a Hudson 4-6-4, but it's not entirely clear. But that's my guess!
The only Disney movie is missing is duckTales movie cuz they have trains too
Ahhh yes, a very fair point! However, this compilation is to show all the different locomotives Walt had in his cartoon from his time in film from 1923 to '66, so I couldn't do DuckTales from 1990. Sorry about that!
17:49 18:06 Emma Nevada #2’s whistle
What about the train in the Aristocats or Bongo in Fun and fancy free?
Since Walt had no direct hand in the Aristocats, I could not include it in this compilation
Fact: Walt's animations were amazing but he didn't pay his employees fairly I felt sorry for them and in about the 1940's they went on strike refusing to work for Walt until he pays them the amount of money they wholeheartedly deserve.
I actually think Walt was half good and half bad because of that.
That's more of a half fact. His viewpoint of payment rested on the amount of work and talent that went into the animation. If you were a lead doing the rough creation from your own references, you were paid well. If you were an inbetweener, inker, painter or cleanup, your animation was less because you have less strenuous work to do in your drawings. Also, if you came up with a good gag or idea for the animation, you'd get a bonus
Just watching this is like *what am i my doing in my life*
Hahaha Well, as long as trains or Walt have something to do with it, I think you're doing a swell job with your life
One of them literally looks like Edward, it has the same locomotive wheel configuration and has a number two on the tender
True, but I don't think any of the engines on Sodor have spark arrestors haha
Walt Disney would be proud and amazed at what he did he deserves a lot of credit way to go appreciate your style and time at disneyworld take care best wishes to everyone. Joe
Yes indeed, there's more to the company name than just a name; it may have all started with a Mouse, but it really started with a man and a dream
9:47 Whistles Rorooroorororororarararrarhhooororoorrararrararhhhhhhhh
Out of scale and the brave engineer have the same tracks and train
Yes they do! Disney is the king of recycling
😊😊🎉🎉Me gustan los trenes
Thank you walt disney for your cartoon train you amazing man we will never forget your name and rip
Walt will never be forgotten. He's one of the few people in history who can claim that they changed the world into a better place
Sentient engines were Walt Disney's idea, not rev.awdrys
I mean, engine drivers in Britain almost since the dawn of the railway age have given engines personalities. Sooooo sentient engines belong to the ages hahaha
A great compilation, well done!
Thank you, much appreciated! This is a dear hobby of mine and now I get to enjoy, and share with you the audience, a brief catalog of the trains in Walt's cartoons

I have a question why did they stopped using trains in disney movie and show?
Well, they do always seem to have some sort of reference to trains somewhere now-and-again. So, in my opinion, they haven't stopped using trains in either films or television haha
Ok
Does the reluctant dragon have deleted footage from dumbo in it?
I don't think so. I think Ward Kimball was just having fun and experimenting with Casey's appearance before his finalized version for Dumbo
@@WaltsNephew Oh, that makes sense.
Please do one on all the cars in his films!
Very tempting! A while back someone suggested I make a compilation about the boats and now we've got one for automobiles. Honestly, I think the one for cars may be more doable since they seem a bit more easier to find hahaha Maybe I'll work on it this summer!
Man Walt and the Rev awdry would be good friends
I think if Awdry ever took a tour of America and managed to find Walt at the Park, I'm sure the two would've hit it off instantaneously hahaha

the fact that almost all of the trains have 1 big wheel and a small 1 is incredible
Hahaha easier to animate ;)
Casey Jr early design
Infact, Thomas will finally copy what Disney’s Own Sentient Locomotives did with The All Engines Go Reboot as they both did wacky stuff and Have wheels as hands and Feet.
