- It's no secret that pretty much every engine in the Rev Awdry's Railway Series was based on a real-life vehicle, but which ones still exist today? Which ones were scrapped? Time to find out!

I accidentally put Pug's status as survived, despite saying in the voice over that he was scrapped. My voice is the right version, not what you see on screen, lol.
He came back from the dead. #ClassicPug
@@Randomstuffs261that is such a Pug thing to do!

@@Randomstuffs261so he faked his death?!
If thomas came out around the same time the E2s were build, i think ppl wouldve preserved them, since the thomas series unironically helped some engines get preserved.
The E2s were still around when the first Thomas books were published.
I wish that one of the E2s was preserved
I mean, the first Thomas book was published 20 years before all the E2's were withdrawn and scrapped. And there's the question of what it would even do in preservation since there's plenty of other locomotives that do everything the E2 can offer and more
Can we get a petition to build a new e2 class tank engine
The Cuddle Fell Railway has a habit of scrapping its long serving members. No wonder there weren't any more stories about them.
I'd imagine the culdee fell engines themselves would survive(obviously excluding godred) as they are close to crovans gate
@@Iggyslime8910 Yes, Godred was the only one not to survive - although Culdee made up a story about another loco ("King Harry"?) gradually being dismantled for parts until there was nothing left.
Cuddle Fell Railway. Cute.
*The Snowdon Mountain Railway
I actually made a video similar to this one, albeit with almost every character (shameless plug?)
I noticed a few characters were missing from here. Niel, Alice and Mirabel were the ones I noticed immediately.
Regardless this is a great video (and series) and I think you did a very good job. Also Total Drama music FTW!!
Neil is mentioned.
@@RJSRdg you didn’t hear that from me
2:33 R.I.P Awdry
Really enjoying these videos my friend, very well done ☺️🚂🚃
5:47 you said “non survive today” status: survived?
Really nicely made vid! Enjoyed it a lot
"Frank" is based on "Perkins" I think Rev Awdry had a fun bit of word play here, Frank Perkins was a manufacturer of diesel engines.
Yes, Awdry worked in a few puns like that - Sir Handel is based on Sir Haydn on the Talyllyn Railway, Handel and Haydn both being composers.
Similarly Stanley being a Baldwin is a joke about Stanley Baldwin, who was British Prime Minister before WW2. (Incidentally, Stanley is not named in the book in which he appears and is only named in "The Island of Sodor: Its People History and Railways" and on Awdry's "Mid Sodor" layout).
@@RJSRdg fantastic answer, thank you.
They survived in our hearts
in rl wilbert is sitting in a siding without his boiler
Correction: Tom rolt was built in 1949 for Bord Na Mona in Ireland and was sold to the and it was rebuilt into Tom rolt in 1991
Next up Thomas OC
Also there's an error here 5:51 all of them were scrapped yet status said survived
Whoops, I thought I got that one. Thanks for pointing it out
Fundamentally enough the whole Jinty and Pug thing makes this interesting
Cause in my headcanon at some point Jinty would be bought as the 100th Knapford station pilot (cause how many engines have started from knapford shunter to running a branch line??), because Percy knew him and Pug, that’s why TFC bought Jinty since he had some experience on Sodor by now…however it was too late for Pug…Leading Jinty down a depression for many years as he wished Pug could’ve been saved
And pug was like: no, I'm alive
D5701 was scrapped
Yea but D5705 still survives
For soon to be rebuild instead of scrap, you should put up "soon to be rebuilt" with a extra life sound
I very nearly did! I'm just a bit lazy lol
More of these survived than I thought. Then again, I'm an American who could give more details about American steam engines than any in the U.K.
Well you are right about basis, but D5701 was scrapped and so was old stuck up. Because their numbers are real make sure to look at the numbers
I did consider that but by that point I'd already finished the video so I didn't worry too much about it. That's a different rabbit hole lol
Would you consider doing a list based on the magazine exclusive characters? (there is a shocking amount of characters that only appear in the magazines. A lot of them are one-off builds according to the wiki, but some of them have actual bases.)
Good idea! I hadn't thought of that
For people thought that one engine from the mountain railway it was not scrap and i forgot the name the engine fell off the cliff and it was put in the back of the shed he was used for other pieces
If the GSWR 403 still exists, Then Awdry would've survived (the human not the engine)
For pug you said none survived but I came up on the screen that he did survive
1020 name was named Dane and he was a ghost in a movie
7:14 You've Done The CGI Characters Too? When? Please Tell. I Can't Find The Video. (Nevermind, I Found It.)
The fact awdry is dead for some reason and his ocs are this character and wilbert and for some reason the engine awdry is scrapped irl. 2:27
For some reason I would find it funny that culdee fell engines and alled greedy, 98642, 87546, 1020, bear, and the green engine from a shed for edward had been in this video same with the second red engine and flying thistle
4:05 Famous rip godred in the stories an real life, isabel was supposed to be in the model series as Oliver's coach but then they removed her so they decided to keep toad
6:03 fun fact neil is scrapped in real life and the railway series stories as being over 150 years old he met skarloey but then died after meeting him so skarloey is the oldest surviving engine.
fun fact: one of Edward's siblings is preserved in a Dutch railway museum
4:01 NO WAY TDI MUSICICICICICX
Do every magazine character
AT LEAST BRO DIDN'T FORGET AWDRY🫡
I thought D199 was a class 55 Deltic for most of my life
I thought he was another class 40
And I thought D199 was a Class 37 😂
What is the name of the soundtrack in the background that starts playing at 0:59?
It’s the instrumental version of the Mob Psycho 100 OP2- 99.9
I forget if you covered the CGI series for your last video? It’d be interesting to see if any of the characters there were preserved or not.
I did cover CGI characters in my other video :)
Interesting video - just a couple of comments:
1) It would have been helpful to have arranged the locos in the order they appear in the books, and to have put up a caption saying which book they were in - there were several at the beginning I didn't recognise.
2) The music really doesn't add anything to the video.
Thanks for the feedback.
Having a bit more info about which book they were in would definitely be handy.
I add music because I hate having silence behind my voice
What? I completely disagree with your second point. Music and soundtracks give more life to the video. It also drowns out some unwanted background noise that may be present when doing a voice over. Yeah they don’t add anything in terms of facts and information (like this almost every other video on the internet) but it’s nice to listen to and could potentially keep viewers engaged. Sorry for the little tangent there 😅. That particular statement was a little strange to me imo. But I actually agree with your first statement of arranging the characters in order of appearances.
@@giantfightingroboto TBH it wasn't so much the presence of the music, as that perhaps it wasn't the right music in that distracted from rather than complemented what was being said.
What about the Mid Sodor Railway's Tim, Jim, Jennings, John, Alfred, Atlas and Albert?
Maybe do a video on the magazine characters
IS THAT THE TOTAL DRAMA MUSIC AT 4:03?
4:04 oh my God total drama theme song omg man.
You said none of pugs class were alive today but you still put pug his status was alive even though his status should be not alive
Hey I noticed something at 0:26 Skarloey Has Percy's face
Pip and emma will die due to being flqttened by a petrochemical train hauled by a secondhand SD70ACE having all of the tonnage behind it on Corredor interoceano
3:42 correction : boco survived not D5701
4:05. total drama fan i see? honestly slay
5:51 wait you said “none survived today” but it says that pug survived 🤨
Yep
5:50 mistake! You put survived instead of scrapped because you said " None survived today"
5:48 You said that none of Pug's class survived, but yet he survived. What's going on here?
Just an error. It happens
Survive'nt
4:11 WHAT!?
2:28 WHO THE HECK IS THAT ENGINE 😂😂😂
I’m surprised you didn’t use a picture of the real Wilbert when talking about Wilbert & Sixteen.
Like Stepney, Wilbert is a real life Hunslet Austerity 0-6-0 from the Dean Forest Railway named after Awdry who was president of the railway.
In retrospect, maybe I should have. I have many brain farts when it comes to these videos in particular.
you forgot minor characters like 98462 and the red engine
Primrose was actually decommissioned and dismantled by the bluebell the p class that's on the bluebell today is a different engine
Huh that's good to know. Wasn't aware of that
The original Primrose, SECR 27, is currently under overhaul by the Fenchurch Fund on the Bluebell Railway and will steam again.
TH-cam Kids In Which Real Life Thomas and Friends Vehicles SURVIVED? Please
What?
shame on the @SnowdonMountainRailway for scrapping Catherine's basis
Hey look it's me 1:06
I think you forgot to do bulstrode
Which obvious that God would got scrap
I mean I guess if you wanted to you could do allllllllllll enginesssss goooo characterssssss I don't blame you If you don't want to
....I guess I could. Maybe.
I don't blame you I guess if you wanted to there's chuggington I mean those engines are somewhat based off real engines
Alaric and Eric were scapped
Ernest survives
On TH-cam
Ttte railway series characters
Some of the numbered engines mentioned in the video actually did not survive and it was confirmed that Neil survived.
Which ones? I was going off the Wiki
@@giantfightingroboto D5501, D282, D31120, and possibly Percy's friends, the Class 52, Jinty and Stanley. Also 10751 was the headcode number for the BR 127 and 1020 and D199's numbers are fictional.
@@Jetthehawk1994 are you on about the characters themselves not surviving? Because that's not what this video is about. It's about the real life engines.
@@giantfightingroboto Yes. Sorry for any offense.
@@Jetthehawk1994none taken! Just a misunderstanding. You had me worrying that most of the ones I put were wrong 😅
2:17 idk bout you but i dont think fr class j1's were built in 1991
They weren't. I said 1891
Some 18s do sound like 19s
you forgot Ernest (smr no.2) Shane dooieny (smr no.5) Alaric (smr no.8) and Eric (smr no.8)
Oh yeah whoopsies
@@giantfightingroboto to answer the question ern and shdo are still around but al and er are scrapped
4:02 totaldrama!!!!!!!
Yep. One of my favourite shows
@@giantfightingroboto same I made paper figures of them
Almost done on season 1
All of season 2 and season 3 complete
Working on Season 4
Working on Tdpi
Working on reboot
None of total drama Rindoncolus race
None of dramarama
snowdown no 4 was built in 1896 not 1996 you silly.
I said 1896. It just sounds a bit like 1996 because the way I talk lol
@@giantfightingroboto Oh I see and that's ok if you spoke a little too fast or have a speech impediment, just talk a bit slower next time ok.
@@spongebobcoolduke1537 I don't have a speech impediment, I just talk that way. I'm already having to slow down because my natural voice is too fast 😀
@@giantfightingroboto Oh sorry my mistake. Oh I see and you speak too fast at times like me. That's relatable.
soooo just for next time, could you please regulate the audio of the gameboy sound effect, its really disorienting and loud compared to your voice :(
Really sorry about that. It sounded fine through the speakers to me, maybe I should work with my headphones in so I can gauge the difference better. 🙏
@@giantfightingroboto try watching on your phone, maybe that'll help you find the issue I'm talking about
