    Huh, didn't expect one of my old videos to make a clip in this.
    But major credit does go toward ToadsterP for making that funny audio.
    And it's great to see hear about some very old stuff from back in the day, some of which I do remember watching too, nicely done.

    I was very intrigued by this video; it was certainly entertaining! The main part that caught my eye, though, was the 'Sodor: Reading Between the Lines' book you showed a screenshot of on Internet Archive. I actually uploaded it, but I never scanned it; I only noticed it wasn't on there already. Another key detail was how you mentioned that you are now able to read it because of this, though I have some very good news for you on the other hand!:
    On the 79th anniversary of 'The Railway Series', I publicly shared a Google Drive containing a treasure-trove of RWS media! I don't mean to advertise it, but seeing as you have to borrow several books on the Archive to read them, I felt like it could benefit fellow Awdry fans; I could send it to you if you like, as it has several amounts of RWS media.
    An unrelated thing I noticed, but wanted to clarify is that you said in the video was how you think the RWS started selling in the States in 1953, but this isn't true; they never sold in the US, it seems like the books were only sold in the UK and later started selling in other commonwealth territories starting from the early 90s to the end of Christopher's original run in 1996. While they didn't sell in the US, they were sold in Canada.

    Correction: 6:02 - The Railway Series wasn't published in the US in 1953. I could not find an exact date when the books were first published here, but these days you can easily pick up the original 26 books brand new in either the complete collection compilation or the individual books in a box set.

    Hey mate, well done on the video
    I remember watching the Roy Wilson interview back in 2016. From what I remember, Roy Wilson revealed a lot of easter eggs and information on wooden railway products such as the Sodor China Clay Cars having his and his eldest sons birthday's on them and the story behind the white face troublesome truck.
    There was talk of the 6 wheeled Toby prototype and Roy Wilson thought it was released to the public.
    Roy talked about his dislike of plastic being used in the wooden railway products, which is why he left Learning Curve from what I remember. Following up from this he was asked which products he disliked; the one I remember was Trevor the Traction Engine. He was also appalled by the 2007 lead paint crisis.
    Again it has been awhile since I saw the video, but this is what I do remember, so I hope this helps.

    • @PlumCasualties
      @PlumCasualties  4 หลายเดือนก่อน +3

      I did recently remember Roy's comments on the lead paint crisis. I remember him saying the factories always tested paint samples before production, and after he left Learning Curve, they stopped doing paint sample tests, which is pretty much what led to the 2007 lead paint crisis.

      ​@PlumCasualties Yeah, that does ring a bell. BTW I do remember some stuff from TomTomica as well.
      From my faint memory he had a video showcasing majority of his engine's and he would let them off in a parade in single file.
      The video was done in sections, one part showed off the Steam team + Duck, Donald, Douglas and Oliver, another would show off other characters and the last part showed off his custom models like Flying Scostman, Wilbert and Sir Nigel (thought it was Mallard at the time). Don't remember the route that well, but I remember they went through the Gaint Thomas from the Thomas Gaint set.
      This is what I remember, but the memory is faint. Just checking if anyone else remembers this?

    I remember a few other TomTomica videos, perhaps the one I watched the most was called something like "Wind-up Fat Controller meets Percy", a short video involving an ERTL wind-up Fat Controller walking for a while, and promptly falls over after an ERTL pullback Percy rushes past. It was the funniest thing ever when I was 12, probably.
    He also did a video on his collection of James toys, including ones that were rarely seen at the time such as as the Lionel G scale model and an early edition of the Capsule Plarail toy (with grey wheels and no side rods). The talking Golden Bear James was also present, which the video's captions referred to as "a mother's worst nightmare". He also did a video on his collection of ERTL Thomases, which was one of the few videos where we hear his voice.
    As well as his Tomy Wilbert custom (which you can get a glimpse of in the reupload of Thomas and 20 Friends), I remember he made a custom G scale Duncan using an LGB Orenstein & Koppel locomotive.

    • @PlumCasualties

      I vaguely remember a video of a fat controller figure falling over and fart sounds being heard. It also was the funniest thing I saw at the time. I wonder if that's the video you're talking about. I do believe the video was Japanese in origin.

    Some pieces of lost thomas media that I can think of are the 3 missing entries to Calebtrain's craziest crash contest. I remember one of them vividly using take n play models, in the video thomas runs past sidney while saying "hey who's that guy" and he also passes by Stafford while he was saying "puff puff puff puff chuff chuff chuff chuff wheesh woohoo" from that one miller era episode. And at the end of the video thomas crashes at the twist and tumble cargo drop set, and then a jigsaw puzzle gets poured on him before the video ends. I honestly don't remember much of the other 2 lost videos, but I do remember one of them being made with a 3d software, and the thumbnail had thomas and his train in a a green void esentially. There used to be fourth video made by terrierstepney that was lost for a while, but I managed to convince him to make it unlisted thankfully.
    And another unrelated lost video that I can think of is this one trainz music video which used the song called Radio by System of a down, and it featured many thomas characters crashing, aswell as thomas being chased by diesel 10. The only other detail that I can remember is that most of the models used were the early SI3d models with 2d faces

    Funny you bring up TomTomica after the Sixteen’s Disaster vid since I think the custom Wilbert the kid who made that video was based on a video TomTomica did showing how he made a custom Tommy Wilbert, and used Percy and Ben as a basis for the custom. Another video by user Dcolemanh mentions the TomTomica Wilbert video since they based their own custom Wilber off of his. Also, I remember that the creator of the Sixteen’s Disaster video had many more like it, I remember that Thomas & The Bionicle and The Unknown Station were the titles of two others. I also distinctly remember watching the Cab Over Wheels remake back in the day, it wasn’t the same as Arse Over Cab, particularly the part where Sixteen rolls over as the title suggests since I recall the track being on a raised blanket to simulate the hill. Speaking of TomTomica, I also remember he had videos on Ertl engines, and some more customs like a really impressive Tomy Flying Scotsman and Big City Engine. There’s also some remakes people have made of Arse Over Cab that I’ve had trouble finding.

    Amazing Video 🤩 Percy and the ghost diesel is the best Thomas fan made video ngl. I remember watching it back in 2011 and I was like 3 years when watched that video and it was my most favorite video I ever watched in my entire life. The last time I watched Percy and the ghost diesel was Probably back in 2016 or 2017 I couldn’t remember when was the last time I seen it, But remember a couple scenes from that video because I actually have great memory ngl, But still it was so Nostalgic and I wish I would Travel back in time so I would get to see the video again, and I also really love the Thumbnail from that video and Percy and the ghost diesel will always hold a very special place in my heart because it brings back so much memories. Good old days 🥲🫡

    I remember watching Percy and the Ghost Diesel, and maybe even shortly before aftmast’s old videos went down. Something I don’t understand is how a video’s webpage archived in the Wayback Machine is sometimes unable to archive the video itself. If it was able to every single time, many videos would’ve been found ages ago. I also love searching for lost Thomas videos, mostly ones from ramahfool. Some other lost videos I remember are:
    A Trainz remake of the Polar Express ice scene but with James
    A jeremycrispovideo/Jeremy Crispo music video with the song Radio/Video by System of a Down
    An MS Paint animated parody of Rusty and the Boulder called “Thomas and the Boulder”
    Ramahfool’s deleted videos (a lot of the links can be found by entering his channel into Filmot. About half of them work in the Wayback Machine, and half of them don’t)
    Not Thomas related, but there was a cool 3D animated video called “Tchoo Tchoo Train”, which was basically a wooden railway track set up like a fast roller coaster in a bedroom, with the song “Don’t Stop Me Now” playing. I would REALLY love to find this video!

    A surprisingly interesting thing I've never heard of nor seen other's discuss before, I actually must thank you for being brave enough to mention it since I haven't seen this mentioned in _any_ lost media/RWS history adjacent videos despite being something relatively important.
    I will say though, while it doesn't excuse it, I think context is important here.
    This kind of thing was very much a "product of it's time" and N-word was being used as more a describing word than an intended racial slur, in fact many languages still use the word to this day to describe the colour black.
    With that said props to Awdry for being respecful and apologizing instead of doubling down on it, while it may not have been seen as an issue when the book was first published he was clearly willing to accept that times were changing, and so with it what was or wasn't acceptable.

    • @PlumCasualties
      @PlumCasualties  4 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      In an early draft of the script, I actually was going to go into more detail on what Awdry meant by using the word. I was going to talk about MUCH worse authors around his time, like H. P. Lovecraft, who was an open racist; Roald Dahl, an anti-Semite; and William Luther Pierce, the author of The Turner Diaries. Pretty much, I was going to say Awdry wasn't anywhere near as bad as those other writers and likely did not mean any serious harm in the use of the N-word.
      I decided to keep this section short in the end due to the heavy themes.

    I'll give some of my own Thomas lost media. Back when i actually made Thomas videos, i did some from 2012 to 2013 that involved copyrighted music. Obviously when TH-cam became stricter, i decided to remove them, but i didn't save them, i just deleted them, so i'm sure they're gone for good. Off the top of my head i can still remember were:
    A Thomas MV to the song I'm Blue by Eiffel 65. which was just clips of my Thomas Take Along toys, mostly my Thomas one
    A MV deticated to the day after December 21, 2012 (You know that whole end of the world thing) & it was just a bunch clips of my Take Along toys, like it was mostly just B-Roll type of footage, while the song is the same one used for one of the trailers for the 2008 Speed Racer movie. I can't remember the name of it.
    And the last two were my most viewed on my channel, which were my two parter of my 2013 Take Along/Take-n-Play collection. It was just a slide show of my collection on my very cheaply displayed background of a model train grass mat & a poorly painted blue sky backdrop with custom nameboards for every toy i had. They were taken down because of obviously copyright music. I can't remember what the first part had, but i know the second part had The Final Countdown playing.
    Those are the more memorable videos i made that are now taken down. Doubt they'll ever come back. I don't have them on any computer of phone i had anymore.

    Sixteen's Disaster was made by user SpareEngine, who used a Tomy Ben on Percy Chassis for his Wilbert Custom, and believe it or not, the Custom Wilbert was made through a lost tutorial which was done by TomTomica
    I also remember some other TomTomica videos where he showcased his Big City Engine and Flying Scotsman Customs, as well as a race between Thomas and Spencer, Thomas and his custom Jet Thomas, & Jet Thomas and Flying Scotsman where it was revealed that his Flying Scotsman custom has a dual mechanism that could draw power from either a 9-Volt Battery or a C-Volt Battery, depending on what he was doing with the custom
    There was also a video that I remember where his Flying Scotsman custom tried beating a bog standard Tomy Thomas at hauling 25 trucks
    He also had videos of his James and Percy collections where he showcased the many different merchandise of James and Percy, though I can't remember all the merch featured in those videos as it's been almost 20 years since I last saw them; there might have been a Gordon Collection, but I can't remember
    He also wasn't Japanese, he was either British or Australian (most likely Australian because if I recall correctly, importing from Japan to England was very pricey at the time), I actually can't remember since it's been so long
    And if you look up his name on Google Images, you'll get glimpses of his Customs and what they looked like
    If you couldn't tell, I watched TomTomica's videos a LOT and really wish that I could watch them again just for the sake of nostalgia

      Thanks for all this information! I'm currently writing the script for an update video, and this comment has been a goldmine.
      I just got one question: There is an image showing TomTomica's customs of Mallard, Big City Engine, Flying Scotsman, and a fourth character; I'm not sure who it's supposed to be. It uses James as a base, is painted in a metallic bronze color, and is number 57. Do you know who this is supposed to be?

It was taken down a day after its realse, because people compalined that he used the word "retard". There is a transcript of it on his Fan wiki. I did take a screenshot of the video, but it is on my old Phone, and I dont know if that still works.

    The videos where from a channel that made remakes of dirty work close shave and gordon goes foreign. The remakes (or maybe just dirty work) have edited faces and gordon goes foreign vid has the wooden railway big city engine for the big city engine.
    all of the remake set I believe is just a big oval with a curve and maybe a 3 way sidings.
    and I believe it was made during late 2000s or before 2012

    Does anyone remember the TH-camr who would remake episodes with wooden railway toys that used stock music instead of any audio from the episodes? I believe they were stop motion and still images mainly. I remember specifically a Don’t Be Silly Remake which was done on a wooden floor, I also remember a peace and quiet remake that was filmed in the dark and there was a bright light that would come from the camera’s flash on any close up shot. If I were to give a rough estimate of when I last saw these videos, I’d say maybe between 2010 and 2012.

    If i remember,there was another Trainz film like 'Percy and the ghost diesel',i dont really remember it good but here goes:
    Its a trailer,using trainz 2006
    In the video i recall no speaking,just show, percy and toby racing down a line, toby being shoved into the sea,a... diesel 10 with no claw using one of the diesels already in trainz just colored with a face,splatter and dodge along side him in a shed when Thomas comes to him, presumably talks (since,again,theres only a song in the background) to him,he and diesel 10 go into each other until it cuts right before, and if i remember,the video either ends or shows the movie's name.
    Now, apparently,its a cancelled Trainz TTTE film,but,i do remember a leak showing 5 minutes of the film.
    Edit: there were also two more trailers,but I remember seeing this one in 2020 still uploaded,the other were presumably deleted or privated.
    Edit 2: now,there was another video,where Thomas was being taken into a workshop by a blue diesel named Bruno (chuggington I think),out came Diesel 10 and like,he had to make a choice because they turned steam engines into diesels??? It was either,Mavis his girlfriend or Percy,he said something like 'yknow what?You want engine?Take me!' or sum like that,Spencer got turned into a diesel before this (this is all scrambled I know),so,Thomas puffed backwards instead of forwards,making him and Bruno fuse into one,a blue diesel ten with a blue-ish claw and Thomas's face or something,and yeah,that's it,I can't find it!

    Speaking of Percy and the ghost diesel a user called “freight hauler” reuploaded it around 2016 it didn’t get many views but then he took his channel down.
    I hope this video is a “bro craft” live situation. (Aka the first “sighting” of the Minecraft myth herobrine) the stream was taken down but was found this year. It’s the internet and if Percy and the ghost diesel had so many views it’s likely a few people downloaded it
