It’s so interesting to see how different some of the engines are from their basis. You can clearly see how they had to modify some of the front chassis to fit a face in some cases.
I'll tell you what, Idk if you noticed that but there are some characters like Bash and Dash, Rocky, Jerome and Judy the Breakdown Cranes, and Sam the American engine, that DON'T appear in this video The reason why I didn't include them is very simple: their real life counterparts have either gears or other mechanical things IN FRONT of where their face is supposed to be, meaning that photoshopping a face would have been EXTREMELY DIFFICULT to do
@@SodorStudiosAndCoProductions I was referring to the models from the show, you can see how they modified the vehicles to fit the faces. I enjoyed your video, thanks for replying. :)
You did a nice job adding the characters' faces to their basis! 5:17 that Picture of Ryan has to be my favorite! 7:26 Barry is another really well done one!
Some of the young children get tired of seeing Thomas and Friends on television (train model or CGI drawing and painting), and want to see them in real life
Hey dude I’ve got a question though may be a dumb one but aren’t the A0s real locomotives though Gordon is stated as a prototype from I what keep on hearing
@@SodorStudiosAndCoProductions oh ok now I get it now that Gordon is a fictional prototype this is another fictional thing that the Thomas and friends series did same with Henry back in the first season when he was in his old shape he was a hybrid between an LNER A3 Pacific and a GNR C1 Atlantic
You know, the bases of Duke, Bertram, Freddie, and Mighty Mac run on 1 foot, 11.75 inch gauge, while the engines on the Talyllyn Railway, and therefore the Skarloey Railway, run on the rare 2 foot, 3 inch gauge. I know the argument can be made that Duke, Bertram, Freddie, and Mighty Mac were re-gauged, but it's more fun to complain.
@@SodorStudiosAndCoProductions I mean, seeing how much detail he put into his engines' backstories, the least he could've done was specify that Duke was either re-gauged or built to a different gauge entirely.
So, you added Nia (the Kenya-Uganda Railway ED1 Class) but didn't include Rebecca (a Southern Railway "West Country" class)? I can understand leaving out characters like Beau, Hong-Mei, and Ace until Season 22 to confirm their basis, but Rebecca's is rather easy to see. P.S. - Yes, I made it through it all. I wish I could recognise some of the Railway Series exclusives, though.
The two characters I want to see in the current Thomas and Friends are Molly and Lady. I may be 18, but I did watch the original 1984-2004 (or so) Thomas The Tank Engine. I watch (I guess it’s what they call it) the CGI Thomas and Friends. I prefer the UK version despite being American.
Looking good, but the train you found for Gordon is incorrect, that train you picked is an A 4 Pacific. The train Gordon was based from was an A 1 Pacific, because 'that' locomotive has that bubble shaped steam dome as Gordon had in the series while the one you selected does not. No offence but just giving some advice.
Well I guess this is such a minor detail that compared to what you see on other videos of "thomas real life engines" like this where a good 90 percent of the matchings are incorrect this mistake is almost insignificant
The closest thing we ever got to an American Diesel/electric loco in the show is Gustavo from Brazil even though something like what you said could be a very interesting addition
@@SodorStudiosAndCoProductions I wonder if they'll ad an EMD GP 40 character sometime in the future? I believe that character would be more dependable than most of those steamers.
*ALSO I had already said it to other people, but I chose a pic of Jack's basis WITHOUT front loader because it was much easier to photoshop, but I can see that there's that "something missing" feeling
You mean like some sorta "A Friend In Need" sequel? Because even though it's not said, it's implied that after what had happened to his front loader, they had to take it off in order to repair it so...
Nice.I realized that because the paintwork on engines like Charlie and Thomas look very rough,but the paint on engines like Arthur and Rex are more shiny
He is a BR 11001, very simple name I guess FUN FACT: It was a bit of a failure and only one Diesel of this class (11001, which is Dennis himself) was built, meaning that Norman, even if it's said that he's Dennis' twin, in real life he wouldn't have existed
All very good but you chose the wrong engine for duck, twice. I'm only saying this as a GWR enthusiast and in if we're going off the tv show and books then duck should be a 57xx without top feed. The closes I can think of being 7714 (albeit with riveted tanks). Look for round cab windows and not the revised rectangular ones.
Jake Darling vignette.wikia.nocookie.net/ttte/images/b/b1/DuckTakesChargeRS4.PNG/revision/latest?cb=20110205053531 there you go, as you can see his windows are squared
Sodor Studios & Co. Oh wow, ok, I know when I'm beat. It's just that every other appearance he has round windows. Plus with his original number being 5741 I assumed that mean that he always had round windows as with all 5700's
Why would Madge be in the show if the face kinda frightens children, even myself. I know that face you used for that Madge isn’t scary, but the real Madge face is really scary to young audiences (2 to 4 years)
Daniel Moolman his only real life picture was his basis shunting a truck, photoshopping him would have been pointless since the face would have been barely visible
*H U H* thats weird, I remember searching "duchess of hamilton not streamlined" and I found this pic But HEY it's always a Duchess class and since the number on the front is covered you can't really tell it's not DOH
I said I hoped you were ironic because I wanted to believe that you could also be joking Glad to see I was right Im forgiving you only because you admitted it yourself
This was unexpectedly great! Shame we don't have footage of these original engines in colour.
Actually, I used a black and white filter on most of them even if they were coloured to give them a vintage look and also to hide the real colours

*This is why DOWT events exist*
Im 2 minutes in and this is terrifyingly accurate.
Especially ladey because she’s not based on any model but the pic is almost terrifyingly close
Old shape Henry is a Hybrid correct, but is based more on a C1 Atlantic so you could have used that
Nobody would have understood it
Isn't old shape Henry identical to Gordon
Not really, if you talking about his RWS version (as drawn by Payne and Dalby) we can say it IS quite similar, but NOT IDENTICAL
considering how Awdry wanted make this series as realistic as possible the photos don’t look edited lol
Well that means I did a good job then ig
This video needs to be more popular
*EDIT: it DID become popular*
Needs more whistles and horns you mean

No, Gordon IS in fact a prototype

They don't, Gordon being classified as an A0 is the "fictional prototype" of the A1/A3

Yes exactly (also this is why Henry here is an A1/A3, because I had to choose between that and a C1 Atlantic)

Actually, Lady doesn't have a basis. #TRIGGERED The rest was really accurate though.
You're right about Lady, she is a freelance design even though the most similar engine is the experimental gwr 101 class
I think that Lady was built as a replica GWR 101 from blueprints, Built in the late 90's/early 00's, granted the TVS timeline is confusing
I always figured she was more custom than anything because it’s implied that Burnett from TATMR built her.
She's based on a modified tich locomotive
@@jaxixteen still, the Tich model itself does not seem to have a REAL basis of its own

Editing their faces on real life is kinda funny

P.S. - Yes, I made it through it all. I wish I could recognise some of the Railway Series exclusives, though.
I probably just forgot to put her
im pretty sure Rebbeca is a bullied pacfic
She is a West Country Class to be more precise
Sodor Studios & Co. huh I thought the West country class looked the same as a bull ed Pacific’s
No actually for example the Merchant Navy and the West Country are a bit different
Duchess of Hamilton looks so good like that
I still couldn't believe Hamilton had a non-streamlining
Hank's basis was also streamlined even though I had a normal body
What engine was it???(the engine type)
A PRR K4s

I forgot some of these engines existed
Dead Cyanide I never knew most of them existed
Like... Who exactly?
I can watch all day lol
Why do most of them not have color even when I’ve seen the original image which does have color.
4Corry it gives an old style appeal
Thank you.
Many of the locomotives in real life were scrapped, like all the E2s. They didn’t have coloured pictures in the 60s
I don't think Bulgy would be an AEC Routemaster, should be an AEC Regent Mk V in standard 30ft.
Jason yu as long as its a double decker bus

I wished in the Thomas the Tank engine series, there would be a character based on the EMD GP 40 locomotive, or are there really any?

Who knows, maybe if among Mattel employees theres a die-hard fan of that kind of engines..
Im really confused why is it not illegal for harvey to have his crane irl but diesel 10 can’t have pinchy
How can you rescue an engine or lift things from the ground with a claw like Pinchy? (I mean it's difficult but not impossible)
*WELCOME, STANLEY!!!*
Great video, could of used some music though.
RedViking It would have been a bit distracting, either you listen at the music or you watch the pics
Sodor Studios & Co. Wouldn't of distracted me. Usually good quality slideshows have music.
I watched the whole thing
omg my teachers name is skarloey *college teacher*
Btw Spencer is based off of 2509 Silver Link, not 4492 Dominion of New Zealand.
I chose that only because I found better images of DNZ compared to SL but yeah now that I look at it I shoulda chosen the latter
Exactly 300 comments.
Well, before I showed up.
Hard to believe Jack of all characters look more of a tractor than Terence.
*ALSO I had already said it to other people, but I chose a pic of Jack's basis WITHOUT front loader because it was much easier to photoshop, but I can see that there's that "something missing" feeling
Suppose that makes sense.
It could be the basis for a decent story where Jack has to work *without* his front loader.
You mean like some sorta "A Friend In Need" sequel? Because even though it's not said, it's implied that after what had happened to his front loader, they had to take it off in order to repair it so...
Could work.
Henry’s old shape didn’t include the boiler stands
This is the closest stuff I could find because Henry is an experimental hybrid between a GNR C1 and a LNER A1 class
Sodor Studios & Co. Then why did you use a picture of an A3?
Because the C1 had a different wheel config
James is a experimental engine of the L&YR Class 28. The picture in this video is wrong.😕
Oh yeah it's the class 27 the one in my pic..
Sodor Studios & Co. Well James is not a class 27
Well they are pretty similar I might have confused them
Were some of these pictures colored just with old timey filter?
KaijuKid 14 Yeah to give them a vintage look
Nice.I realized that because the paintwork on engines like Charlie and Thomas look very rough,but the paint on engines like Arthur and Rex are more shiny
The photo of james depicts him as an 0-6-0, when in the series and show, he's a 2-6-0
The extra leading axle is a thing added by Awdry, James' basis in reality never had a Mogul configuration
could have added music or something cuz its too quiet, otherwise nice video
Imo music would have been too distracting
Does it count if I paused it a few times to read the writing (the extended ones) because it was going so quick
Yeah I guess so even though I only explain something more about a character that maybe not many people know
What type of diesel is Dennis?
He is a BR 11001, very simple name I guess
FUN FACT: It was a bit of a failure and only one Diesel of this class (11001, which is Dennis himself) was built, meaning that Norman, even if it's said that he's Dennis' twin, in real life he wouldn't have existed
I think Fergus was done really well
Edward was the picture of the *Hugo* locomotive tho
What the hell are you talking about, Edward is a FR K2 class, not a "Hugo" or whatever you said
@@SodorStudiosAndCoProductions oh ok then sorry
2:36 hey dude I don't think AShima was based off of that locomotive

In the RWS Duck has rectangular windows
Sodor Studios & Co. Can you link me to an image please because every single one I've found of duck from RWS he's has round windows

I have a question... Who's alf?
ttte.fandom.com/wiki/Fred
I mistakenly called him Alf cause thats the name of his basis
You know that lady is not based off of a real engine right?
I know it, but still, the GWR 101 class is the closest thing to a possible real life Lady
I like all of the real life trains
They made porter out of Strasbourg Thomas?! Lol.
RRIA AMERICA Its the opposite
Why would Madge be in the show if the face kinda frightens children, even myself. I know that face you used for that Madge isn’t scary, but the real Madge face is really scary to young audiences (2 to 4 years)
How would Madge's face exactly scare children? Like, would it be because of the awkward shape of the face?
Gordon was flying scottsman I thought Henry was mor of a black 5
Henry is a black 5 but only after his rebuilt
Sodor Studios & Co. Still Gordon is based on the flying scottsman
Actually he is more based on Flying Scotsman's class, not on Flying Scotsman himself
Sodor Studios & Co. Yes. There is an episode were Gordon meets the flying scottsman
I know
i’ve not seen one of these since 2012
Like one of these characters or one of this kind of videos?
Sodor Studios & Co. these kinds of videos
There are actually some other videos made by channels for kids but they are all horrible
One thing you missed I think was Theo
Yeah but still I included him in another video
Um you do realize you called Fred Alf by mistake...Alf is the name of his basis
