@@xxx-nz8ps i literally have no idea why i said this 3 years ago, i really love how Awdry stuck himself in the story with the engines. Adds more to the realism
I always thought it cool how Reverend Wilbert Awdry showed himself as a character in his own books, especially this one. And also how this episode was named after the old fairy tale (and Walt Disney Animated Feature, which came out 11 years before this book was published).
Now this is my favourite RWS episode, it features Duke, Arlesdale, the Fat and Thin Clergyman and a great story! a gazillion times better than the TV adaption! 10/10!
Michael S. Well since we know the Arlesdale Railway Engines are going to be in the upcoming Sodors Legend of the Lost Treasure, HIT might make a CGI special film of Duke the Lost Engine. You never know. ;)
Joseph Essilfie Unfortunately no - Wilbert Awdry's history of Sodor shows that Duke (built in 1880) is actually fifteen years younger than Skarloey and Rheneas (built 1865)

Rex Bert and mike guest what! Said the small controller look what I found on this book by the thin clergyman there stood in the book is an illustration of Rex Bert and Mike with the small controller and others wow! Said Bert the artist really did put us on the picture you look good there too said Rex too Bert the three small engines and their small controller laughed all thanks to the thin clergyman
You gotta love the fourth wall conversation between the Thin Clergyman and the Arlesdale Engines!

Awdry stuck himself and his friend into his own story, and the artist did in fact include the Arlesdale engines. So they were good.

Rushton does a good Awdry voice. Almost dead on lol.
Followed years later by Rackstraw
I wonder if Rushton actually met Awdry.
And in the first time in years he smiled, as he doze off into the sun.
Love that line.

You know I can't tell if you're the same person, But. didn't you have a Profile Picture of Daisy, but now it's Terrence
“I dropped in because I couldn’t find your door!” The RWS is a thousand times better then the actual show, it has much more charm.
Falcon & Stuart will be pleased to see you again.
@@FullArcher05 Not always. look at season 5
I’ve never seen Awdry in a RWS book and imagine my surprise when The Think Clergyman was asked if he was writing another book.
I like how Rev w awdry made a cameo in the book
Indeed
this is a very wholesome story thanks reverend awdrey you've done well.
Ok this story is beautiful.
And the amount of worldbuilding artistry in the illustrations conveys them to look like real-live occurrences.
So they did remember. ❤😭
I like it that awdry act like he really there
1:20 ah yes, the 4th wall has been broken

I glad that Wilbert aldery was showen in overolls helping cleaning up duke
A.K.A. Duke's Last Stand (where Duke entered service to the Talyllyn Railway)
The Mid Sodor Railway is like Sodor’s narrow gauge version of the Harcourt Street line that ran from Bray into Dublin through Dundrum.
0:20 Teddy Boston AKA the Fat Clergyman
1:14 If that's not breaking the 4th wall I don't know what is.
DRN 003 Cutman That is definitely breaking the fourth wall, my friend.
He’s making the stories seem real as if they exist and the books he wrote during his experience in the Island
This story was adapted into an episode of series 4. Thomas, who was absent from the story, appears in the model version, as narrator tale.
all that's left now is Small Railway Engines and Tramway Engines
Just completed now
0:36 Who is that red engine in the portrait?
Maybe Mike
Probably Mike since it’s the Small Controller’s office
Duke:(sleeping, but the fat clergyman falls through the roof waking him up) What the devil?!
36 down and 2 to go eh NC01? We're doing good I reckon!
Duke is 100 years older than Skaloey & Rheneas.

S&M 1, Neil and S&M 3 are older
So, in terms of age, how do Glynn, Stephen, and Edward stack up
@@adventureoflinkmk2 Steven would be the oldest by a wide margin he's supposedly the original Stevenson's rocket here are the 5 oldest engines I know of from oldest to youngest
Steven 1829= 190-191 years
