@Arthur de Lima Machado I like to believe they are the same character. Especially when you look at the Railway series lore and how it helps it all click together.
Yeah My version of Nia was abused by her controller in the past and suffers from PTSD because of it which would give kids a message that some people may have gone though a traumatic ordeal in the past and that we should be more accepting of those with disabilities
I like the Community's take on these two a lot better. Billy, a snobbish engine who think the world should revolve around him. Charlie, a stand-up comedian
Fun Fact: Charlie is literally the CGI version of Billy. Billy was going to be in all of Charlie's S13 roles, but Miller decided to make a whole new character. Billy is even in the original versions of Hiro Of The Rails.
@@alexandraroman4121 Splatter, Dodge and Dennis were meant to be in Day of the Diesels and their models were mad but converted to Paxton, Norman and Sidney for more merch characters
I wonder if they made Charlie without realizing they already used the same basis for Billy. Since this was like five or so seasons apart and I’m assuming they hired new writers for the cgi seasons than the model seasons.
@@harrisonallen651 At least I can survive an episode with Rebecca or Nia. I doubt I can get through Billy's episode again without tearing my hair out in frustration.
I have a more interesting theory D199 Bowler and Diesel 10 are the same Why?: D199 Was kicked out of sodor, he repainted himself and returned as Bowler, he got kicked out again, he crashed on his way back to the mainland (somewhere in barrow) and met Splatter and Dodge in the mainland dieselworks, they repainted him again, added a claw and removed his middle window
Here is my story about Billy. It will be titled as "Silly Billy's Redemption". This story will take place after the events of "Don't Be Silly Billy". Billy is beginning to feel remorseful and guilty about his disobedience and bratty attitude towards Thomas. But when the railway becomes busier than ever, Billy gets a second chance and Thomas decides to teach him how to shunt trains for the other engines. And instead of disobeying, Billy finally begins to learn to listen to advice and do as he is told. But some other engines do not trust Billy one bit, not even Percy, Mavis and Diesel. It soon changes when a runaway Diesel goes too fast with the troublesome trucks pushing behind him and it's up to Billy to redeem himself and save the day in order to prove himself a useful engine and that he has changed his ways!
Billy had potential to be a well-rounded character. The problem is that this potential was shattered because the only episode ever to have Billy appear, just had to be written by Sharon Miller.
I really had no problem with Nia or Rebecca as characters. I hated that they replaced Edward and Henry, but I felt that they were at least harmless with regards to their personalities and they seemed to exist for a reason beyond just selling toys or making bad jokes, something that can't be said about Charlie or Billy.
Headcanon: Billy's backstory involved being told around too mutch by the big engines that so he called "bossy engines" that they take advantage his small size and he ownly had a little chance to stand up against it alone
The thing is, the Manning Wardle L Class was a really nice looking engine, and are really interesting. They got shitty characters though. What we need is a Manning Wardle K Class to beat them back to the WW1. Like, these ingrates need a lesson they'll remember.
In my opinion, I actually like Billy. Billy may be annoying, but maybe if he had a better voice, he could be a better character. Billy did find Thomas bossy, which if you think about it, makes sense. If I was in Billy's shoes, I'd probably think Thomas was bossy too, but I wouldn't say that, and do what he told me to do. Billy isn't on my top favorites for sure, but at least at the end, he did change his ways and became a better character. Maybe if he had a better voice and arrived to the railway in the attitude he had at the end of Don't Be Silly Billy, he could be a likable character.
Maybe put Billy in a situation where he has to work with Bradford, and Billy takes is strict and uptight nature for being rude and unhelpful, only to later on cause confusion and delay and damage Bradford to the point where he needed to be taken to the works.
Brotha. His name. Is on his side. OHHHH NEVERMIND I GET IT! Very clever. You’re implying Percy can’t read as part of the intelligence removal(?) bestowed unto Percy as a result of the HiT era. That’s legitimately genius, you get a + to respect.
There actually kind of the same because in season 13 Billy was supposed to return, but replaced him with a new character, Charlie because they had to market a new character.
Interesting thing about Charlie is that his class is the oldest of manning wardle locos(plus one of the oldest tank engines with his class dating back to the 18somethings) but acts as if he was the youngest.
@@ukaszwalczak1154 It’s a similar thing that Mattel does. They’d rather have the designs of the locomotive be interesting and not their personalities. They just choose the locomotive that looks like it could sell the most toys, without looking up any information about it.
In my headcanon, the reason Billy didn't appear after season 11 was because he was on the mainland doing odd jobs, and then in 2010, he came back to sodor along with his brother Charlie. Charlie came to sodor in 2010 i think since season 13 came out in either 2009 or 2010. But anyway, Billy came back and he and Charlie had fun, they both like racing
When you really think about it Charlie, Nia, Rebecca and Billy at least have more character than Norman who's one of the most pointless characters in the series
I like to think that after his many accidents and incidents caused by his jokes, Charlie is now a much better engine, and only tells jokes to the others at the sheds when everyone is setting in for the night, or are getting ready for their first trains, as well as the trucks as a way to get them to behave, much like Salty and his singing.
Is it bad that I don’t mind nia and Rebecca? I mean yes they replaced Edward and Henry which is a crime punishable by death, but I like the idea and potential each character has. Of course Mattel screwed it up because they’ll never understand why Thomas is what it is today, but you look at something like NWR53’s story “The West Country Runaway” and you see what I mean. Mattel didn’t handle the characters well, only caring about the surface value of representation, not characterization.
The way that they handled Rebecca was just completely disrespectful with Gordon's outburst. Technically it's Childish and would be so if literally any other character, but having the straight laced Dignified "Upper Class" character completely snap and go all over the place was a clear move from the writers that those that liked Henry need to go fuck themselves. Perhaps I'm not the biggest fan of Henry in the universe but you don't get away with doing that to Gordon or Henry without thinking I'm never going to show this to my kids, or recommend to anyone being a parent anything beyond like Season 11.
@@mmouse1886 I mean there is seasons 18 - 21. Now don’t show them ‘that’ episode, but I still think that season 20 especially should still be seen by kids and adult fans alike. However, season 12, the Shannon Miller era, and BWBA can be sidelined in my eyes. If I do show my kids Thomas, I want it to be what I think they should learn, not what others think they should know about certain topics. (That being the very stereotypical international episodes of BWBA)
Gender equality guys. Even if it ruins the fans day. Introducing 'girl' engines with crap personality by replacing fan favourites is more important than saving a legendary franchise.
Charlie is better simply because he just seems to be that guy who wants to make people laugh but has a hard time knowing to pull it back. He means well but on the reverse it cause other people NOT to take him seriously when he's actually pretty good at his job. But Billy, wtf? He's just a straight up jerk.
Billy's existence baffles me, like they there's so many other characters they could've used for the same purpose as him. Bill and Ben, Rosie etc. He doesnt even look cool so it's not like he'd sell toys.
The problem with Nia and Rebecca is that they frickin replaced 2 original begginer characters, what they could’ve done is be like Ryan, or Murdoch, etc, have them on Sodor, just not the fucking CENTER OF ATTENTION.
I definitely think that Charlie and Billy are the same. It was basically confirmed when in one episode Billy was gonna return but they made a new character called Charlie. So basically there the same which is a cool theory
I grew up really liking Charlie, and I didn't even see the episode Billy was in I just knew he existed. Nowadays, I'm not a fan of either. There's a fan made engine named Wendell that I think should have replaced Billy, they are similar classes.
I don’t remember where on Twitter, but someone made a tweet saying what if billy had autism, and the show wanted to show that but with the engines, but then again they didn’t do it right
So that's why ryan was created, i didn't hate charlie that much, i sort of find him funny, i even questioned myself: what happened to charlie? ( i keep mistakening ryan for charlie ) but billy on the other hand: I HATED HIM! ( 1:21 ) WHY?! I Miss Edward & Henry!

These little editorials hit different. I think this show more than any other I've seen has so many one shot throwaway characters with wasted potential. I thought Billy was fine, really no more or less interesting than Season 9's Dennis. Charlie is just generic funny guy, much more annoying than Billy since he had a legit personality. Nia and Rebecca are terrible characters that show a lot of problems with the corporate takeover of the show, wheras previous ones were just merchandise one shots
The First time Thomas saw Charlie: Charlie: Hello Thomas I'm purple Billy but everybody calls me Charlie Thomas: Hello I've never seen you in my entire life
Billy will always be a terrible character, and nothing will change my mind. I can see why a lot of people don't like Charlie. I personally don't mind him. Sure he's annoying, but at least he wasn't a jerk-wad like Billy. Since I like bad jokes and puns I enjoyed hearing Charlie make them.
Billy and Charlie are brothers so that makes sense, and the reason I don’t like Nia or Rebecca is cuz they replaced Henry and Edward On the Steam Team to “MAKE THE AMOUNT OF GENDERS ON THE TEAM EQUAL” Like wtf?
They re-designed the engines idk what season just to make them blend in with Nia and Rebecca, but it's fucking pointless because if Edward and Henry weren't redesigned was because Mattel chose two new characters to replace Wilbert's original number 2 and 3 engines, how shitty, Henry and Edward we're good characters! And they replaced them?! BULLFUCK!
Billy was a throwaway one-off character, Charlie was supposed to be a comedian but none of his jokes were funny, Nia is just sort of there and Rebecca i actually like.
Charlie actually has more character depth than Nia and Rebecca combined. Think about that for a moment....
pretty much although with Rebecca they could do more with her than what they did in the show.

No, they removed him for the same reason they added him, to make a new character and make a quick buck.

Billy was fine to me and I also had a Wooden Railway toy of Billy so maybe that is why I like Billy.
I have a wooden railway Billy to I guess I didn't like him cuz he looked ugly
Ya know the best thing you can say about billy and charlie? They didnt replace anybody. Their inclusion hurt no one. We lost nothing for having them.
What Happened to the Previous Upload?Anyways, great video as always
I mistakenly had some information and editing in there that wasn't correct, I ended up scrapping the idea. :/
@@ItsTrainBoy oh
great video. you changed my opinion on them
1:12 charlie face give me nightmares
Billy is a character that I loved. That's all I have.
Nobody needs to know that
These two are like Sodor's finest, but not Sodor's finest
Billy and Charlie are brothers so that makes sense, and the reason I don’t like Nia or Rebecca is cuz they replaced Henry and Edward On the Steam Team to “MAKE THE AMOUNT OF GENDERS ON THE TEAM EQUAL”
Like wtf?
Another similarity is Norman is the brother of Dennis. They both have the same type of design of an old diesel engine.
They re-designed the engines idk what season just to make them blend in with Nia and Rebecca, but it's fucking pointless because if Edward and Henry weren't redesigned was because Mattel chose two new characters to replace Wilbert's original number 2 and 3 engines, how shitty, Henry and Edward we're good characters! And they replaced them?! BULLFUCK!
I never noticed that they looked the same
Then you're blind
Billy was a throwaway one-off character, Charlie was supposed to be a comedian but none of his jokes were funny, Nia is just sort of there and Rebecca i actually like.
I particularly enjoy Billy, very much actually, Charlie however
I hate him, very very much
I Love this Channel, Definitely Subscribing!!!
Arthur and Bell are twins
3:28
My face when I realize I'm still a virgin.
Also do you know billy turns into a steam monster when it’s night and his teeth it counts
