I actually really like how Sodor is populated by one-offs, hybrids, and outliers. To me it really gives the island this "rag tag bunch of misfits" vibe.
But I love this alternate rebuild headcanon you've thought up to explain this model's looks. I'm never not thinking about Gordon's siblings, so the idea of him actually getting to meet some of his younger brothers and sisters that he wouldn't have in canon really warms my heart.
The fat hatt has been shown to be a very emotional person at times so it's most likely he bought trains that were intended for scrap to keep them alive
@@Finn_the_Cat oh definitely, definitely.
Honestly I think it's a headcannon that also gives so much more impact to Gordon's story where he learns diesel power is taking over and his relatives have been scrapped, he got to meet his new sibblings for a brief few years during his rebuild only to learn another few years after that was the last time he'd ever see any of them besides Flying Scotsman.
@@clockwork3494 You're so right
I think Gordon might've been intended to be an A1 from the start, but since there was no A1/A3 model when Awdry built it, he had to do it with the triang princess, which is hard to convert into a 100% accurate Gresley pacific, specially with the different running plate. So he had to compromise and create the A0 backstory.
Gordon is one of my favorite characters in the franchise, and this custom Gordon looks perfect, in my opinion. I especially like the addition of the nameplate. It seems like something he would have.
I know
Something Only A Very Dignified Engine Would Have
Same
same
We need to see Henry Toby and Oliver
Gordon in primer looks like he's in that game on the Thomas DVDs where you had to match the engine to their right color
Can't get over how beautiful your models are.
Here's an idea,put a "The Shooting Star" nameplate on gordon so hes similar to other A3s that have long names
And another one,make the Wild'Norwester plates to put on gordons smokebox
Gordon model looks like a classic gold model
I don't usually rewatch videos that have been reposted. I tend to only go back and watch a few specific ones I've enjoyed. I'm making an exception in your case, watching most of them as you post them.
Post the Toby one next, I want to watch it.
Same here. I usually hate rewatching something I’ve already watched, but in this case, we need to help our boy out.
amazing how may people are rewatching all the reuploads
Such a beautiful looking model of a realistic take on Gordon.
A classic goodie of a model. Basic but wonderful
Gordon will be very pleased with this.
But what about.........HENRY BEFORE THE FLYING KIPPER CRASH
You are Right🙂
I wanted to ask Tug, you mentioned the LMS Fowler looked a but small & dinky behind an A3 body. Someone told me there where bigger fowler tenders used that would look good proportionally wise behind a A3 body.
I don't even think any of those exist in model form.
I think your thinking of a stainer tender
I personally would’ve loved to see a nameplate that says “Gordon” in the television series weather it would’ve been model or CGI.
I'm still waiting for that Henry and Toby video.
Fun fact, uhh, weirdly enough, Gordon's sloped running board (to some degree) is accurate, since there was an engine, GNR No.461, the Prototype of the LNER/GNR O2's which had the same unique characteristic of a sloped front running board, so, it could be said that the sloped front running board is a characteristic of Gresley prototypes
I want to know why does Gordon’s footplate flat instead of with a slope
4:26 Bröther may Ï have some tëndër?
The bright side is that Hornby has a new tender coupling system that is used in their P2’s. Hopefully they retool their other models with it soon.
Gordon is top tier
4:36 Gordon you're gonna explode without water
Whoosh! The shootingstar is coming through!
@@frencisshuen1054Give up There's nothing you can do
Gordon is flying Scotsman brother mallard is Spencer’s brother
Your Gordon moddel is amazing! This video is interessting. Your Gordon back story is great. If you make a series I think it would be amazing because you understand these chrarictors so well and your back storys for these chrarictors are so interessting. Great video! Hope you have a great day!
Gordon looks good with round buffers
I hope there's gonna be a video when Gordon pulls his own Coaches.
Yes! Gordon is not Gordon without the express.
I agree
Gordon is not Gordon without Gordon’s Gordon Express
@@marcusbierman5310Gordon: Thomas! Stop chatting and bring me my coaches!(whistling)
Express coming through ~
When ever you finish your layout, try to add a ditch near the turn table for fun, to resemble the ditch from off the rails
Edit: just a suggestion
I would like if you add a coridor because it more fits for an A3
Request: You should do Neville next.
0:40
I love how you put the "How I Built" text on top of Gordon's nameplate.
You know I think gordon should be changed to an A3 instead of a A1 in the shows and scotsman in to the new all engines go😊
Hmm Toby Oliver and Henry being in one video? Hmm interesting...considering my name.
I really love your model and headcanon for gordon it feels so right
I like your content and videos, your videos make me happy and your edit is very good, keep going and don't give up just like your favourite character, Edward 😉
Ah yes, the grand "Flyinc Scotsman"
Looks exactly like Hornbys Flying Scotsman
Holy guacamole Gordon is back!!
I have a idea unlucky tug add a water tank at the end like the flying scottsmens second tender
I like your version of Gordon the big engine
Well, you've already done a Tugs Trains video on Duck and Oliver. I think a Tugs Trains video on both Henry and Toby would be excellent. It really would.
Gordon looks like In model form
Tug: 0:00 - 0:11 HA GOT YA! HAHA!
Me: Thanks Nick, I hate you.
Gordon dominates dem all
I remember once, I was with my aunts and uncles, and we were all chatting, and then all of a sudden this video starts and it's just "HAAAAARGGGHHHH!" and I genuinely went "AAAHH!"
Can you make Diesel 10 he is a 42 warship
Yes we would have forgot to change the buffers
I always wonder to Tender Engines have suspension leaf spring in the Driving wheels
Unlucky tug I have a suggestion since I loved this video, can you old shape Henry? I feel like that could be interesting since it’ll be a cool design. ❤
3:44 agreed i prefer the corridor tender it looks gine on gordon
Ok just hear me out for a sec, if Doncaster DID rebuild Gordon with oval buffers, they’d come from a GCR engine
Hey Nic, I think I figured it out. Awdry tried to justify Gordon’s design flaws because they were also present on his model of Gordon, his Gordon model was a weird Stanier/Gresley hybrid, he converted a Stanier engine into an A3 for his Gordon model, and I think the models are what should be taken seriously when it comes to visual aspects. Especially the 2 cylinder aspect, he used a 2 cylinder model for Gordon, so he took the lore of the model and put it into the character.
Hello @ The unlucky Tug I have a question or idea for a video. What’s the Rev Awdry legacy? Since many great authors are being questioned today. Was he a cantankerous person? unpleasant. Or generally a moral man with a passion for railways. Was he as inventive as say Tolkien? As they both go to such detail in their worlds. What would he think of his creation today being a huge commercial enterprise? Is it a good example of life in the past. Being idyllic, nostalgia, or just a rose tinted view? I think although maybe a controversial few questions. It could make a great video as I don’t think many people have produced one like that. As you always put much thought in your videos. Brilliant model! Keep well.
We know that he was an unpleasable diva when it came to the illustrations.
@@Xalerdane well it’s just interesting to hear people’s opinions because no one really asks. No one has really given an in-depth video of his life and maybe challenges with his creation.
@@Watermillfilms He also said "Once the Americans get a hold of it, The Whole series will be vulgarized and ruined."
@@Xalerdane To be fair It is a huge commercial enterprise almost like Disney now in my opinion.
When you said none of your engines have nameplates you forgot donald douglas hrio bill ben
He hadn't made Donald and Douglas yet, and Bill, Ben, and Hiro still haven't been made. Hell, I'm not sure Tug will even make a Hiro.
My personal favourite au
7:39 Did you make Flying Scotsman with smoke deflectors?
I believe the smoke deflectors came with the model as it was an early 2000s era style
We're getting very close to 100k views! Let's go people!
Gordon in my favorite
😍
If he is the first one, does that mean that the Flying Scotsman is his younger brother?
You can try old shape Henry use a A1 with a lot of modifications including a sloped footplate and different tender use the same modified running board use a different body maybe make a C1 body longer and take away the side things on the smoke box on the side.
I saw your Spencer video and said that you’d make remakes with them, would you give them faces for the remakes?
I'd like to see how you did james' extended running board
He did the video
@@merlinandmurdoch7837 I make the comment bofore the reupload
3:28 the A3 gay crusader really caught me off guard and made me laugh 😂😂
I know this is a old video but have gou though of making a Prototype Henry or old shape henry, a LNER A1 mixed with C1 (that's right? I can't remember if it was C1 or V1 or a different engine), i think some people make a Old shape henry, i don't know if they are realistic or aim for a more prop accurate design, but it would be cool
4:29 I guess Gordon took Thomas’s advice and scrapped his tender
you could make your own oval or retangle buffers
They sell the oval buffers on eBay
Spencer is silver not white. It's bin years since I've seen Thomas and I can still remember?
Hes white
Gorgonzola
Is it me, or do I want to see the unlucky tug try to tackle the idea of buying/building a gauge 5 or gauge 2.5 live working steam locomotive
On the LNER I think he could have been Great Northern and Called Great Gordon
I thought the same thing!! 😁
Love your vids
Pardon me, Nic. I just wanted to ask you if you're sure deleting this channel if your original channel comes back is a good idea? Since your original channel got taken down because it was involved with your other two channels got strikes by Mattel, you may be risking your channel again.
How about polar express and polar express coaches? Can you make polar express?
I want to see Henry
3:25 Gordon actually left between April 1923 and July 1923.
why do i feel like gordon looks better in grey 4:49
You did not get me
I [____] what a henry model!!!
Best video intro ever😂😂
0:03 I dare you to make an old shape henry
nobody the unlucky tug at 0:17
henry old shape:*i am an fucking joke to you?!?!?!!?
Can you make a video compiling toby and Henry
What about making a old henery
0:00
Press 3 times
if you want to challenge maybe you should try building an old shape henry i don't know if you could or how you would but it's a challenge it's just a suggestion you don't have to take it too seriously.
I need a henry video
CHALLENGE: make old Shape Henry
I don’t think Gordon is to have a slope footplate
I want to see spencer
I love the Pacific Gordon why you call it I mean the lining a b****?
How much could I pay you to do an a1 like that for me?
Can you make a video about splatter and dodge and diesel 10
Why dose gordon looks like flying scotsman just painted blue and 1 tender ?
maybe cause they’re both A1/3 Pacifics? did u even watch the video?
mavis!!
what happened to the original LADAS tender?
What about Peters Spares for parts?
3:26 4477, 108, 60108, please tell me I read the name right.
If anyone did make gordon similar to how he did it, was the lining that much of a bitch to put on?
Can you make a model about the small railway engines Rex Bert and Mike
