bravo. well written. this was so educational. i know one thing i never would have a fighting chance. in ww1 ww2. i think. kids should hear story's like this. sure may have dark undertones but. what war is.
I like how you used Rosie an S100 class steam engine to pull the train full of WW2 veterans as she is basics a WW2 veteran as well. Her class along with the S160 2-8-0 class played a vital roll in supporting US and British troops overseas. From an American across the Pond, I salute you and the great work you put into these stories as well as the British people for fighting so hard when She stood alone. God Bless.
They shall grow not old, as we that are left grow old: Age shall not weary them, nor the years condemn. At the going down of the sun and in the morning We will remember them.
Re-watching this for Heaven knows how many times, I can honestly relate to this episode because my grandpa (who died November 23, 2014) fought in WWII.
Once again, you've tackled a touchy subject and produced a great piece of work. Brilliant job, you could sense the fear and worry in the engines and it's clear Shane learned his lesson!
Well done, this is a fine testament to all those who gave their lives for freedom. Those who served are true heros, whether they be from the homeland or Sodor, their sacrifice will never be forgotten. Lest we Forget
:)... What can I say? Every time I think I've seen your best work, you always put up something even better. Few references to WWII have ever been made in the Awdrys' books. I think this is one of the most emotional fan stories you have ever thought up NWR1991. We should always remember Veteran's Day. I could not stop listening to Mr. Chamberlin's speech throughout its duration, because of its historical importance. I felt like I was seeing the broadcast in my head. The only thing I can think of that would have made this masterpiece better would've been the inclusion of a broadcast by Winston Churchill. Even without it, this is still a wonderful story. I can't give you enough praise for this. Another beautiful story. :)...
Somehow, I only just realised Rosie's importance to the episode and her connection to Remembrance Day as a whole, seeing as she and her class were war engines. I guess I just needed to watch this again to realize why Rosie was perfect in this episode.
Until today, I've never heard of Remembrance Day. Here in the states we have Independence Day. And here in Utah, have Pioneer Day. My guess that in all my years of being alive and living, there are so many freaking holidays here in the states that I've never looked towards other country holidays, minus my Dad's heritage of Japan. I thank you deeply for this episode. Because of it, I now know of another holiday.
Ah, so it's like different names for different countries. Thank you for the info. :) And to The Vicarstown Sentinel, I already know that. Though my stupidity in my comment didn't show it... XD
I think it was a really brave move tackling such a subject in a piece of media aimed at children, but it was done in a brilliant, down to earth way. Kids deserve to know what happened in those days, so the same mistakes aren't made again. Of course, you're going to get the overprotective parents moaning about this, but the dark tones were there for a reason: to educate. And no matter what the situation, that's what Thomas and Friends has always been about: good morals taught through great storytelling.
Your completely right I shudder to think how newer generations will turn out, because of overprotectiveness, and children need to learn about our recent history to teach them about the mistakes people have made in the past such as war and discrimination. Saying that we don't want to horrify little children with these sorts of lessons, but gradually introduce them to it.
Nice touch of adding Neville Chamberlin's speech..though this is the first time I've heard it all the way through. Mind you, whatever became of Chamberlin after he stepped down from office before Winston Churchill took over?
Well I don't know much about history or politics, but Wikipedia states he became Lord President Of The Council in 1940 after stepping down and later died of bowel cancer on the 9th of November in 1940. Dunno why I'm responding to a year-old comment, but why not. :)
Hi there Can I just say how amazing this was. Being here in Britain where I see everyday places where the bombs fell, how amazingly good you portrayed this episode. As a brass instrument player myself, I've been in 2 Remembrance Day services where the Last Post has been played, just like you did. The sequence with the actual Blitz looked and sounded so realistic, and everything was just incredible. Last year I visited the WW1 and WW2 battle fields and cemeteries in France and Belgium, and now seeing this all if just incredible. My family was also heavily involved in WW2, which I'd like to thank you so much for this, as this means a lot to me and is so close to me. And friend of mine and I have written a series on The War and Sodor, but this tops all of this. Sorry for the long comment, I just really think it's a fine piece of work, and one that should truly be congratulated.
As a former member of HM Armed Forces I don't find this video offensive, In fact it's a great way to honour those we've lost in all wars & on behalf of the men I called great friends who sadly are no longer with us I thank you for airing this video. Phil
When I first saw the viewer discretion notice I thought it was warning of a ghost story and other horror related themes, but this episode was well written and well researched. I'm proud to know that you sir care enough about fallen soldiers from the world wars to add a tribute into this episode.
Canada fought on the side of the allies Like Australia New Zealand and Other British commonwealth countries when world war 2 broke out in 1939 when Germany invaded Poland and Canada fought mostly in Europe in areas such as Northern Europe Italy and the Atlantic And liberated Nazi occupied countries like the Netherlands defended the British isles during the Battle of Britain and fought in Hong Kong alongside with the British against the Japanese and Canadians fought alongside with the Americans in the Aleutian Islands against the Japanese and Canada was Britain’s leading ally against Germany due to the fall of France until 1941 when America joined the allies after japan attacked pearl harbour Hawaii and Canada supplied Britain with food weapons and equipment that the allies urgently needed and Britain didn’t stand alone against the axis Germany Italy and japan they had help from British commonwealth countries such as Canada Australia New Zealand Rhodesia and South Africa that also joined the allies on Britain’s side in 1939 when German invaded Poland and 1.1 million Canadians served in the armed forces and other military forces across the British commonwealth during the Second World War
Several of my relatives were in WW2. My dad's father was a bombardier in the U.S Army Air Corpse, and flew training missions. He was about to go over and fight the Japanese when the war ended. My dad's uncle on his mom's side was in the army and was the driver for a general, before training for infantry and my dad's other uncle, his father's brother was in the Navy. On my mom's side my great uncle Curtis who was her father's oldest brother was in the U.S Army and was in supply depot and actually saw General Patton, and was close enough to ivory handled pistols
Well done. Though fiction, it seems you researched th historical facts well. I am watching this on the 4th of July in US. A good reminder of why we have such days of remembrance. Thank you.
9:04 Even though bombs were thrown in the air, the crane was still moving boxes, it should've been destroyed by now though. I like the video, it was really good.
I thought that was very selfish and disrespectful of Shane and his former driver to say that Remembrance day is about over glorifying war. And I guess this is a lesson to those who are learning about the wars in middle school. This was honestly one of your most moving episode ever!!!
It's not very likely we'll all be able to heal the scars left from the two world wars of the past but with all of the survivors who have put their lives on the line on the fight for freedom along with those of the dead who gave their lives for our freedom, we'll pull through and live on for those who wish for nothing but the best of our lives with the freedom we swore to protect until the end of our lives.
Wow.... this is an amazing video. It really grounds the otherwise fictional land of Sodor in the real world. Not for little kids of course, but for kids who have grown up a little and understand the war
I had a distant cousin who fought in ww2 and helped liberate a death camp. Two others who fought in the pacific. A great great uncle who fought in ww1 and a grandfather who fought in Korea and a great uncle who fought in Vietnam. I have massive respect to those who went to war living and past.
Just the thought of the engines during the wars terrifies me...... I wish I got to see more of the engines and Sodor and as to what happened during the wars.....
Great respect to veterans. Great Granddad served in North Africa, before being wounded and captured by the Afrika Corps during the Siege of Tobruk. Released by Monty's Desert Rats following the British recapture of Tobruk, he went on to serve with His Majesty's Army, the ANZAC Forces, the US Army, and the Italian Resistance. He survived the War and went on to pass his story on to my late granddad, who told my father, who told me.
TBH, I find the subject of what World War 1 and 2 would have been like for the people and engines of Sodor a interesting topic. Sodor: The Dark Times covered it briefly, but this episode does it rather well.
I don't mind that you had some concepts of this story based on real events. It makes the story more real. Of course, if people who have experienced such incidents then it can be understandable that people would be offended.
Quite a nice episode. Great tribute to remembrance day and it certainly entails what it's really about. Though I have to be honest that the bit with the radio at the station seemed a bit dragged out. I know it's all for WW2 accuracy but I just feel it could've been shorter. BTW you can get German Warplanes on the DLS; type in Fighter. Just thought you'd be interested if you ever wanted to do another World War 2 episode. :)
I must applaud your camerawork as well as your willingness to approach this particular subject matter. Very tastefully done. The trumpet part at the end got me thinking of 'Amazing Grace.' Is that weird?
Beautiful episode. 10/10. This was very moving and one of your best. But I have a nitpick or two(nothing major though). The sheep sounds when the man was making the announcement and that a little error is that Toby was in the flashback as it says he arrived in 1955 but this was in 1939. But I really like this episode, and by the way where is Oliver's model from?
Going by Gavin Rose's RWS database, Toby could've been around 1951 or much earlier. Given also that passenger service terminated on the Wisbech and Upwell Tramway in 1927 which in the stories, closed his line down, which is why I made him there.
I'm all for honoring the veterans both living and dead. My late father was a WW2 fighter pilot based in Duxford, England. My only complaint is that there's no closed captioning for those who are hard of hearing and deaf.
Sorry for replying here, NWR1991, but the reply thing from TH-cam doesn't work for me. I just want to say that Toby did arrived in 1951. Rev. Awdry stated it on The Island of Sodor book. But that's just one minor thing, and the episode itself is really well-done :)
I've heard that the Germans weren't alone in the war, the Japanese helped them too and... because of this, my grandfather had a huge dislike to them, I think I may have inherited it. And by the way, Toby wasn't on Sodor during the war, he came in 1951.
I know, I was just saying. Ah, I see. Now that I've seen this, I've just remembered that at Douglas Promenade, there was a large poppy up the hill, I think it's from the navy or perhaps something for remembrance day.
That is such a horrible part of the war. We forget, or choose not to acknowledge the innocent victims of that war due to ignorance at the time. I did a report in school many years ago about those atrocities your family suffered. The war theatres both in the US and elsewhere are hard to imagine. Even now we still have wounds rom such event.
re-watching this episode and it got me thinking, it's 100 years this year for the end of the first world war and.......what if there was an engine (either a standard gauge or a narrow gauge engine) who was there when the guns finally went silent at 11 on the 11th of the 11th? it's an idea and a suggestion and don't intend to throw it at you saying do this or that story as no doubt you do have an idea for this year. just thought of it being a good idea and wanted to share it
Steamsmith GG I don’t have any plans for 100th anniversary story. I have an idea though for the 75th anniversary of the end of WWII in 2020. Nothing is in fruition, just having ideas thrown around on what to make.
I don't know what to say about this. From my family all of my four grade-grandpa's(my grandparents were all kids and babys back then)fought in WW2 and one of them even in WW1 for our home country Germany and survived, but two of my grade-granduncle's died in the WW1 and WW2. If my grade-grandparents would have been against the Nazis I, my parents and my grandparents wouldn't exist. And I didn't know of this day, well everyone of my family back then fought for Germany not for the Allies.
@@NWR1991 We should also keep talk about wars to a minimum. There could be people out there who lost a family member or friend while fighting in combat on either ally or enemy side or died as a civilian. We don't want to offend anyone who suffered as a result of armed conflict, the exception maybe is wars that happened long ago like the American Revolution here in the states or Napolenic Wars but overall let's not offend those who suffered horribly.

What a lovely homage to Remembrance Day. The Sodor Blitz looked horrible, and all those people and soldiers... Brought a tear to my eye.
Re-watching this for Heaven knows how many times, I can honestly relate to this episode because my grandpa (who died November 23, 2014) fought in WWII.
My maternal godfather also served in WWII. He was an RAF pilot and flew Spitfires.
i can relate to this episode my father fought in vietnam Died June 15th 2016 and my uncle who also served in ww2
my grandpa was an infant when the wwii broke out
Once again, you've tackled a touchy subject and produced a great piece of work. Brilliant job, you could sense the fear and worry in the engines and it's clear Shane learned his lesson!
I live in America, but I will salute to the brave men on Remembrance Day.
Veterans Day is America's Remembrance Day
I will also salute on veterans day.

There is one error though. Toby wasn't on Sodor until 1951 and he's seen in the background during the scene of Neville Chamberlin's speech.
Words fail to describe how marvelously written this was.
I feel bad for those who lost loved ones 😦
Mister Random I agree
What a wonderful story dedicated to Remembrance Day! May all those who lost their lives in the wars rest in peace. 😔
good episode it really teaches about that we have care about the people we lost in the wars

Didn't Germany invade Poland on September 1st?
This date was England's declaration of war against Germany
NWR1991 no, get your facts right, Britain declared war on the 3rd September 1939(not being rude)
LightningBoltThePikachu213 That's what I was referring to the previous commentator
W.C Productions u cool
Did you know that occurred during World War II
Dear knows.
I don't know what to say about this. From my family all of my four grade-grandpa's(my grandparents were all kids and babys back then)fought in WW2 and one of them even in WW1 for our home country Germany and survived, but two of my grade-granduncle's died in the WW1 and WW2.

And I didn't know of this day, well everyone of my family back then fought for Germany not for the Allies.
Wouldn't Rosie be considered as a veteran?
In my series, Rosie just came to the NWR this year.
NWR1991 I understand that. Wasn't Rosie's class built in WWII for the war effort? Therefore, Rosie would have seen some war action, thus a veteran.
Yes, I was showing that at the beginning with Rosie about to pick some veterans.
my grandpas brother was in ww2 he is still alive btw
September 3rst?
do mean vetrans day
Thomas is set on a British isle, so therefore they call it Remembrance Day.
