Heeeeeello! :D It’s finally out. (I’m literally uploading this at 2:07 AM lol.) A good amount of people were really interested in seeing a reaction to this video and it was really nice to watch it. As I stated in the video I’m a sucker for history, so this video did a great job of explaining the Sodor timeline. I would definitely suggest checking out the original video since I mainly kept the segments that consisted of my main commentary. Thank you for bearing with the ooof upload situation. Have a good one friendo! :) -Jeff
If you enjoy history, I also recommend reacting to a Gravity Falls Timeline by Channel Frederator, and the Joey Drew Studios timeline by SuperHorrorBro.
You probably dont care but if you guys are stoned like me atm you can stream all of the latest movies and series on InstaFlixxer. Been streaming with my gf for the last few weeks =)
That's not entirely true there's a small island off the coast of England where sodor would be but it's way smaller and also there's a town called vicarstown there coincidence
It's fun watching your reactions to Tug's narration of events, and trying to decode if Sodor is real or not. Sadly in our world Sodor is fictional, but within the Railway series books things from our world (like Awdry's writing of stories and the TV show) are real pieces of fiction there. It gets kinda 4th wall breaking sometimes as most of the stories from the first 4-5 seasons of the show we have are direct adaptions of stories from the books in our world, which means they're adaptions of stories of real events in the Thomas book universe. As for things like Thomas being booked by cops and Toby being bought to run that branch section and all the crashes; it has to do with the realism Awdry wrote in to the stories such as the law of a train running on a section of non-fenced track must have side-plates and cow catchers to protect humans and animal straying on the line (this is a key plot point in the early TV show as to why Toby & Mavis run the line to/from the quarry on Thomas' branch even after it has fences built), and sadly the history of rail travel is filled with crashes that over time made it safer and easier to travel by rail (such as the current safety feature of if an engine passes a signal at danger, a trigger is pulled that causes the train to come to a stop soon after the signal to prevent rear-end or head-on collisions, which sometimes still happen because of faults in the systems). As for why Flying Scotsman is so popular - it was the prime express train from London to Edinburgh (as it "flew up to Scotland") and the loco was named after the service (not the other way around). As steam locos were removed from service in the UK, The Flying Scotsman went in to preservation and on tours around the world as the last Pacific (4-6-2 wheel arrangement) engine designed by Sir Nigel Gresly in working condition, until a new A3 based on Peppercorn's designs (evolved from Gresly's) was built over the 1990's and 2000's and eventually came in to service in 2011 - Tornado.
Sorry to correct you, but a Pacific wheel arrangement is 4-6-2, not 2-6-4. The Whyte notation is determined by looking from the front to the back or look at left side and go from right to left.
Another reason why the coffee pot engines we’re called coffee pots was the fact that when under strain the engine would spew out brown liquid which looked like coffee to the workmen
Duncan was indeed a close guess; Duncan's real-life counterpart on the Talyllyn Railway is called Douglas Like the twins Duncan is also Scottish; you can also see a conversation between the three Scots in 'Sour as a Lemon' by Skarloey Rheneas
No absolute problemo! :D It was nice to finally get this video out. I did have some trouble when editing it but thankfully the reaction recording didn't completely mess up. It was so cool to hear about all of the major events within the Railway Series Timeline, I definitely learned a lot. The Unlucky Tug does such a fantastic job with including neat facts. Yeah totally feel free to let me know if you think that there is anything else that needs to be viewed. Thank you very much for making the request for this video, I hope that my commentary was sufficient. Have a good one friendo! :)
@@WhattheHay Can you react to The Full Story of Flying Scotsman USA Tour by The Unlucky Tug it premiers tommorow. Also to answer your question on why he is famous. It's because he was the first engine to reach 100 mph, he is the first locomotive to travel around the world, and is the first locomotive to have 2 tenders (Maybe)
Thank you so much for reacting to this! As for your question as to why Flying Scotsman is so famous, The Unlucky Tug just uploaded a video about that: The FULL Story of Flying Scotsman's USA Tour.
Heyo Mitchell! :D No absolute problemo, I had such a good timelearning the history behind the Railway Series. It is so crazy to see how much can be documented about something like Thomas the Tank Engine. The Unlucky Tug did a fantastic job with including interesing music and visuals. I apologize for the lack of response to this comment and your request. However, I am happy to report that I am actually uploading a reaction to the Flying Scotsman's USA Tour video this Monday. I plan on recording the video for it today. Thank you for checking out this video and making another request, I appreciate your time. Have a good one friendo! :]
@@WhattheHay reason flying Scotsman is so famous is he's the first train to be confirmed to have hit 100 mph Truro is said to be the first but it's all alleged where as flying Scotsman did it live
5:04 The Culdee Fell Railway engines have angled boilers because if they were straight, when climbing the mountain, too much hot water and combustion would go to the back of the boiler, near the firebox, and cause the boiler to explode.
Heyo chaz! :P Totally, I think that I've actually heard of that video title before. Each time that I've done research on The Unlucky Tug or reacted to their content I always see really interesting video titles and I think that that is one of the videos that I have seen (not watched though). I'll go ahead and jot your request down for future use and I'll let you know if I have any questions about it before I actually watch it. Thank you for stopping by and checking out this reaction, I hope that you were able to enjoy yourself. Have a good one friendo! :)
Heyo Rin! :) Oh gosh, that makes a bunch of sense, thank you very much for clarifying all of this with me. I suppose with all of the live-action stuff that The Unlucky Tug was including I assumed that it was a legit thing. It is somewhat unfortunate that it isn't actually real, that would be neat if it was. By the way, thank you very much for stopping by and checking out this video, I really appreciate it. Have a good one friendo! :D
Scotsman's fame comes with him being officially the first steam locomotive to go 100 mph (City of Truro's is kinda unofficial) He's the sole survivor of Nigel Gresley's A1/A3 pacifics and turns 98 years old this year. He's also toured the US (which Tug is working on covering in future) and Australia throughout his later years, and has the longest travelled distance of any steam engine. A 16 minute video of Scotsman's life can found on Chris Eden-Green's channel where he also covers almost all things about British steam trains and he even has a 5 volume DVD series called 'Steam Locos in Profile'; I highly recommend checking out his content, though you might not wanna do reactions (as much as I'd love to see them) for sake of money stuff he goes through making these.
Heyo Wallace! :) (I love your username, I haven't seen a combination like that ever.) Gotcha gotcha, that makes a lot of sense. Since I'm not familiar with stuff like that it is extremely helpful when people explain it to me. How did you personally find out about that? Having videos like this is super nice since I am able to become more aware of the aspects that make a locomotive. Thank you very much for the explanation and for coming by to check out this reaction, I appreciate your time. Have a good one friendo! :]
@@WhattheHay Thank you! I learnt it off a video by "Train of Thought" Here is the link if you want to know more ruclips.net/video/mg8u3DJO6tk/видео.html
Sodor’s completely fictitious unless someone raises the funds to build an artificial island between Britain and the Isle of Man. The reason why the Culdee Fell engines’ boilers are angled is because the water in the boiler would slosh backwards into the fire on the hills because if they weren’t angled, the boiler would explode from the sudden drop in pressure. 13:45 It was some sort of law that required covered wheels to protect animals from being dragged under the wheels and trams are the only types of engines that have covered wheels. 18:01 You really need to research this legendary locomotive. First train to reach an indicated 100 mph.
Heyo chaz! :D Gosh, that's pretty sad to hear that. Is there a specific reason as to why a lot of the A1's were scrapped? That definitely does make sense though, it's cool to see that a lot of people appreciate the Flying Scotsman's preservation. Thank you for taking the time to let me know about this, I learn more and more about engines every day which is super neat. I hope that things are going swell on your end. Have a good one friendo! :)
@@WhattheHayAs new diesels were being made by BR, it wasn't long before they made mainline express models, leading to the scrapping of multiple express steam locos like the A1s, A4s, A3s, P2s, you name it!
@@WhattheHay Also, Scotsman is mostly famous for being the 1st (authenticated/proven) steam loco to go 100mph, people say City of Truro went at that speed 1st but it has never been proven
@@WhattheHay Flying Scotsman was also the first steam locomotive to Officaly hit 100mph. And later in its life it was like the rest of the class upgraded and became the A3 class. Also in 1988 its second private owner Sir William (Bill) Mcalpine brings the loco to Australia for the Bicentennial calibration Aus steam 88 were it runs many trip with other famous aussie locos like 3801. Whil hear in Australia it takes the record for longest non stop steam run. And thats just a little bit about it. Not mentioning how much of a Monny pit it is. Lol Loved the video.🙂
13:44 the reason Thomas isn’t allowed to go along that line anymore is because federal law states that if an engine is working along farm lands, they must have a cowcatcher and side plates to prevent people and animals from getting injured by the train.
The books are colourful, VERY anachronistic for 1940s. Most children's books would have lined black, white & red illustrations in them at the time. One of the points of making the books that size was so they use techniques from colour postcards to put full illustrations on every second page.
Thanks for reacting to this, my face quickly lite up when I saw the video in my recommend! Also could I get an update on my request for Thomas the tank engine memes #6 by Mr Ryan?
(5:04) The engines had angled boilers to keep the water level well, level as the angle of the mountain would prevent an even water level when climbing it. The island of Sodor is a fictional island off the north west coast of the British isles. The island is based on the isle of Walney, of which Vicarstown or “Vickerstown” is a town on said island.
Heyo Star! :) Thank you for informing me about that, I had no idea before watching this video. I have been told that the RWS contains both fictional and real themes, so it is interestign to see the combination. I always just assumed that everything to do with Thomas the Tank Engine was fictional, but it is cool to hear that that is not entirely the case. Thank you very much for stopping by and checking out this video, I appreciate your time. Have a good one friendo! :]
sodor is not real😄, its just that the Reverend wilbert awdry wanted to make the island of sodor and its history as real as possible, even the engines have real life locomotive basis.
Heyo Tengku! :) Oh gosh, that sort of stinks that it's not actually real. However, the creativity and uniqueness behind the idea of Sodor are amazing. Awdry put so much thought into it. Thank you very much for explaining all of this to me, it's very helpful and kind of you to do. With the way that The Unlucky Tug made the video, Sodor sounded like a genuine place. Thank you very much for taking the time to check out this reaction, I really appreciate it. Have a good one friendo! :D
So There Are Some Parts You Dont Understand, Like Toby Being Painted in A Chocolate Brown Livery, Its Because Some Things ONLY Happen in The Railway Series (ps: sodor isnt a real place) And Also The Tv Show ADAPTED Stories From The RWS And Made Stories Of Its Own, So Thats Why You'll Recognize Some
Heyo Caledonian! :) Oh gosh wow, I totally didn't know about that. Toby is probably my favorite Thomas and Friends character but I don't actually know the small details about him, so thank you for mentioning the paint information. I kind of was on the edge of assuming that Sodor wasn't real, but The Unlucky Tug included so much live footage from stuff that I started to think that it was legit. Thank you for both relieving some of my confusion and for checking this video out, I appreciate the helpfulness and the support. I hope that everything on your end is going smoothly. Have a good one friendo! :D
Sodor isnt a real place but real things that happen in real life, Awdry writes in the books to make Sodor seem real. (Like putting himself in the books lol)
Heyo chaz! :) Ooooooh gotcha gotcha, thank you for explaining that to me. If I was an author of a book series I'd probably insert myself into it as well lol. It would be cool if a theme park about Thomas was made to make the books seem more legit. Thank you very much for your input and for checking out this video, I appreciate it. Have a good one friendo! :P
@@WhattheHay The only theme park i know of is Thomas Land in the UK, and there is also a whole bunch "Day out with Thomas" events around the US, UK, Japan, Australia and more, which have real engines dressed up as thomas characters
Heyo Adsy! :) I actually plan on recording a reaction to that very video today lol. I have received quite a few requests to cover it so I am interested to see what the hype is about. Are you a fan of The Unlucky Tug's content? Their work is very high in quality and always super informative. Thank you so much for coming by to check out this video and making a request, I appreciate your time. Have a good one friendo! :]
@@WhattheHay His content is very good, really fascinating to listen to all the Thomas related stuff such as how Gordon is the real protagonist to the RWS and not Thomas. :)
Heyo Game! :) Sure thing, thank you for the request. Funnily enough, I actually plan on recording a reaction to that very video today, so I am glad that I found your comment. I have heard many good things about that video, so it will be nice to see what it is about and what it goes over. Are you a pretty big fan of The Unlucky Tug? There content is very unique and creative. Thank you for the video request and for coming by to check out this content, I appreciate your time. Have a good one friendo! :]
Heyo Jin! :) Funnily enough, I actually plan on recording a reaction video to The Unlucky Tug's Flying Scotsman video, which should be uploaded on Monday. Is the Flying Scotsman one of your favorite engines? I have heard a lot of interesting history on it so watching a video that discusses the engine should be fun. Thank you for coming by and checking this video out and making a request, I appreciate your time. Have a good one friendo! :]
Heyo Kellan! :D Heeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeello, how have you been doin'? Ah gosh no absolute worries, that is totally fine. I am not exactly sure how the RUclips system works with recommendations but either way do not feel pressured or rushed to keep up with my content. However, I do appreciate your support with checking up on videos like this. The creative and unique lore/history within the Railways Series is super cool! I certainly could never come up with a story like this. Thank you very much for stopping by and watching this video, I appreciate your time. Have a good one friendo! :]
19:27 Flying Scotsman is so famous for being the only surviving engines of Nigel Gresley’s A3 class and had an entire trip around the US and a little bit of Canada and was the first ever preserved British Railway Locomotive to be “mainline certified”.
Fun fact Falcon is actually Sir Handel except with a different name and Peter Sam is cold Steward except he was called Steward when he was on the Bed store with walking 80-84 handle and Duke AKA Grandpa
18:01 that's the same reaction of EVERY SINGLE RAIL ENTHUSIAST maybe because he's the first to reach 100 mph because city of truro isn't actually confirmed the it reached 100mph first
Heyo Eddy! :) Lol yep, sometimes my commentary isn't that creative or unique. All of the videos that I react to are pieces of content that I'm seeing for the first time, so taking the time to process what I'm actually seeing is usually super short. For the most part, I usually take what I see and understand it as best as possible, although my statements typically end up being short and uncreative unless there's a long pause between major events within a video. However, it's nice to see that you found that particular phrase funny or enjoyable in some sense. This entire video was jam-packed with interesting sections, so I had a fun time checking it out. Thank you for giving this reaction and for providing some slight input with the quote, I appreciate your time and feedback. Let me know if there's anything that I can do for you. Have a good one friendo! :]
Another thing I wanted to know, did you accidentally skipped has some events? There were some that I didn’t see. It’s OK if you did, I’m just asking out of curiosity.
That's probably the case! With my reaction videos, especially ones that are in relation to super long content, I typically only include the sections where I actually provided commentary or said something that I considered helpful for the reaction video itself. That's kind of the tough thing about reaction videos, sometimes I don't even consider important parts of certain content, especially if I'm not familiar with the video/topic. That sometimes makes people confused and upset that I didn't feature their favorite part of a video. You could definitely ask questions about my opinions on certain parts of a video if I didn't cover it. Thank you for asking! :)
Heyo S! :) Ahhhh I see, thank you for telling me that. I never would have understood that, mainly because I'm not that familiar with the mechanics of engines. People are so smart, I totally wouldn't have thought of doing something like that. Thank you very much for stopping by and checking out this reaction video, I hope that you were able to enjoy it in some way. I also hope that everything is going well on your end. Have a good one friendo! :D
The difference in illustrations was Rev W Awdry wasn't happy with the different ways the art was drawn, the first artist Reginald Dalby wouldn't draw the characters correctly and he resigned on Percy's book
The reason the Flying Scotsman is so popular is because he's the first official locomotive sorry greatwestern fans to go 100 miles per hour and also he was in this Showcase of Britain's machinery and he went around the the world he went to America and then went to Australia
Steam Trains have a lot of histories, even though they are trains, steam trains are now rare to see beacuse been replace with modern trains History is was more important than money
Heyo Rajo! :) Oh wow gotcha. I don't know that much about trains so information like this is super helpful. I have a friend who absolutely loves talking about trains/engines and I asked him what he thinks about the transition from steam/diesel to electric/modern trains. I'm really interested to see how much railroad travel will decrease or increase in the future. Thank you for taking some time out of your day to check this video out and for explaining some important information to me, I really appreciate it. Have a good one friendo! :D
I do believe that I've received requests in the past for specific episodes from that series! I can't specifically recall if any reactions are scheduled for that content soon, but I do know that I've taken requests about it in the past, so they'll release at some point. It's nice to hear that you're familiar with the series as well. I've heard lots of good things about it, so I look forward to checking them out when the time comes. Do you have a favorite episode/video from the series? :]
@@WhattheHay my favorite one from the series is the entire history of Skarloey. That episode holds special significance for me because I was going through a hard time before I discovered unlucky tug’s channel, and that particular video really helped me get back into the fandom. It brought back a lot of memories for me in terms of some of the stuff that he references in there, and it also peak my interest in heritage railways. Finding it, and the unlucky tug for that matter, gave me the happiness I was missing, and a new passion.
Heyo Molly! :P Oh woah, I had no idea. It's really interesting to see how different content creators/film makers use different characters and models to fit various scenes. I totally wouldn't know who to use. Even though I don't know that much about Thomas and Friends it definitely does seem a bit weird that they would use that character for that. Thank you for checking out this video, I really appreciate the support. Have a good one friendo! :]
Hey, I just wanted to say that I really enjoy watching your Thomas reaction videos. Regarding the part about Diesel 10: ruclips.net/video/S1IYdmLjy4w/видео.html, that's Diesel. Diesel 10 is the one with the claw on his rooftop, but he doesn't appear until Thomas & the Magic Railroad (after Season 5)
Sadly its not real (sorry to burst your bubble) but its still ver in depth realistic and just amazing, Though the Furness LMS and british railways are real, so are all of the towns not on Sodor
The reason why the Flying Scotsman is popular because it is the only A1/A3 that is still used in service. Another reason why the Flying Scotsman is popular because it was the first engine to reach 100 MPH excluding the fact that City Of Truros 100 mph run wasn't really official, it also went on a American tour by the famous driver Alan Pegler.
Heyo Lost! :) Oh no lol I would definitely not recommend doing that. That is funny though, thank you for the laugh. I haven't really ever thought about the number of times that I say that...maybe I should rethink my intro lol. Thank you very much for stopping by and checking this video out, I hope that you were able to enjoy it in some way. Are you a fan of the Thomas and Friends community? I hope that everything is going well on your end. Have a good one friendo! :D
The Island of Sodor is a fictional island created by Wilbert Audrey however though it is fictional, it is influenced by real world events and all of the characters are based off of real life engines that were and are real. The Island of Sodor’s location would be between the UK and The Isle of Man and also the island of Sodor is connected to the Mainland ( The UK ) by a bridge and the North Western Railway connects to Barrow-in-furness which is a real town in the real world, so though the Island is fake, it is influenced by real events that happened in real life like the Diesel’s becoming popular in the UK and their are also characters that are basically in real life like Stepeney and The Flying Scotsman. Their are a lot of Real World influences that make the Island of Sodor feel like a real place though it’s not.
Flying Scotsman is not only one of the few engines to go as fast as 100 Miles per hour and is also the only A3 engine still around it’s also famous for both its image and its fast speed
Heyo Dave! :D Funnily enough, your username reminded me that I need to find some games from Roblox for a future Roblox gaming video. If you have any suggestions totally feel free to let me know. :) Anyways, thank you for stopping by to check out this reaction, I hope that you were able to enjoy it. It was really cool to see what The Unlucky Tug deemed as important to include in the timeline. Have a good one friendo!
Thank you very much for that feedback! :) I had a nice time learning about the different major plot points in the Railway Series, especially since I'm not familiar with a majority of what the story is about. Are you a big fan of the stories/shows/movies? I did watch some of the show growing up, but I didn't really stick around to watch everything that it has become now. Thank you again for the support!
And I made my own character named Normen he has 5 wheels on both sides on his body and has Rebecca’s tender and has Gordon’s body and has his name on his tender and number 15 on his cab his number 15 is meant for 1915 his escaped scrapped after no one buyed him his escaped in 12/4/1915 he was built in 11/31/1915
Heyo Vincent! :D Thank you very much for the feedback on this video, I had a nice time piecing it together and creating it. The Unlucky Tug clearly put a lot of effort into the video as well, which made it enjoyable to check out. A lot of people mentioned the video and I can see why. Thank you very much for giving this reaction a chance, I really appreciate it. Have a good one friendo! :)
Since so many people were requesting this video I was super excited to see what all of the hype was about. The Unlucky Tug did a fantastic job of including facts and information that was interesting to learn about, even for a person like me who isn't very aware of everything in the series. Had you seen the video before this reaction was put up? If you did, thank you for still giving this video a chance Hipps. :) I've received some other requests to watch content from The Unlucky Tug, so I have that to look forward to. Thank you for supporting what I do friendo.
As much as I wish Sodor was real, most of the information in the video you reacted to is fictional, the exceptions being the Barrow Blitz in 1941, the first book coming out in 1945, the newly crowened Queen going on a tour of the railway regions in 1951, engines starting to be scrapped in 1963, steam officially being ended in 1968, the show starting in 1984, an engine being named Wilbert in 1987, and Wilbert Awdry sadly dying in 1997, thoes facts are true to real life. HOWEVER, if anything, that makes it even better because The Unlucky Tug, while amazingly compiling it into one video, did not make any of this information up. All of this is lore and history created by Rev. W. Awdry, and his son Christopher, which shows how dedicated they were to making Sodor realistic and have reasons for being the way it is. Sorry for such a long comment... Also, as a side note, Diesel 10 is different from Diesel, and was not in the Railway Series.
Heeeeeello! :D
It’s finally out. (I’m literally uploading this at 2:07 AM lol.)
A good amount of people were really interested in seeing a reaction to this video and it was really nice to watch it. As I stated in the video I’m a sucker for history, so this video did a great job of explaining the Sodor timeline.
I would definitely suggest checking out the original video since I mainly kept the segments that consisted of my main commentary.
Thank you for bearing with the ooof upload situation.
Have a good one friendo! :)

If you enjoy history, I also recommend reacting to a Gravity Falls Timeline by Channel Frederator, and the Joey Drew Studios timeline by SuperHorrorBro.
React to the unlucky tugs new video of why the flying Scotsman so famous.
You probably dont care but if you guys are stoned like me atm you can stream all of the latest movies and series on InstaFlixxer. Been streaming with my gf for the last few weeks =)
@Ira Dangelo Yea, I have been using instaflixxer for since november myself :D
Just saying you should react to the unlucky tugs video "sodors finest engine".
2:48 Sodor is a fictional Island, sadly.
That's not entirely true there's a small island off the coast of England where sodor would be but it's way smaller and also there's a town called vicarstown there coincidence
@@LMS5935 Vickerstown*
I suggest reaction to an Unlucky Tug video explaining why Gordon is the greatest character.
That's a good one!
agreed
Agreed
James was originally black when he came to Sodor, but was repainted red after his accident with the trucks in Thomas and the Breakdown Train.
It's fun watching your reactions to Tug's narration of events, and trying to decode if Sodor is real or not. Sadly in our world Sodor is fictional, but within the Railway series books things from our world (like Awdry's writing of stories and the TV show) are real pieces of fiction there. It gets kinda 4th wall breaking sometimes as most of the stories from the first 4-5 seasons of the show we have are direct adaptions of stories from the books in our world, which means they're adaptions of stories of real events in the Thomas book universe.
As for things like Thomas being booked by cops and Toby being bought to run that branch section and all the crashes; it has to do with the realism Awdry wrote in to the stories such as the law of a train running on a section of non-fenced track must have side-plates and cow catchers to protect humans and animal straying on the line (this is a key plot point in the early TV show as to why Toby & Mavis run the line to/from the quarry on Thomas' branch even after it has fences built), and sadly the history of rail travel is filled with crashes that over time made it safer and easier to travel by rail (such as the current safety feature of if an engine passes a signal at danger, a trigger is pulled that causes the train to come to a stop soon after the signal to prevent rear-end or head-on collisions, which sometimes still happen because of faults in the systems).
As for why Flying Scotsman is so popular - it was the prime express train from London to Edinburgh (as it "flew up to Scotland") and the loco was named after the service (not the other way around).
As steam locos were removed from service in the UK, The Flying Scotsman went in to preservation and on tours around the world as the last Pacific (4-6-2 wheel arrangement) engine designed by Sir Nigel Gresly in working condition, until a new A3 based on Peppercorn's designs (evolved from Gresly's) was built over the 1990's and 2000's and eventually came in to service in 2011 - Tornado.
Sorry to correct you, but a Pacific wheel arrangement is 4-6-2, not 2-6-4. The Whyte notation is determined by looking from the front to the back or look at left side and go from right to left.
Another reason why the coffee pot engines we’re called coffee pots was the fact that when under strain the engine would spew out brown liquid which looked like coffee to the workmen
So basically they poop when strained
Duncan was indeed a close guess;
Duncan's real-life counterpart on the Talyllyn Railway is called Douglas
Like the twins Duncan is also Scottish; you can also see a conversation between the three Scots in 'Sour as a Lemon' by Skarloey Rheneas
Welsh not scottish
Duncan is Scottish, Rusty and Duke are probably English, I assume Ivo Hugh is technically "Sudrian", and the other four are the Welsh ones.
What happens if Duncan met Douglas the CR 812?
@Rat. I know that Talyllyn Railway in Wales but Duncan's brother is actually Scottish. What makes you think Duncan has a Scottish accent?
Thank you for reacting to The Entire Railway Series Timeline. I'll tell you if there is any other things to react
No absolute problemo! :D
It was nice to finally get this video out.
I did have some trouble when editing it but thankfully the reaction recording didn't completely mess up.
It was so cool to hear about all of the major events within the Railway Series Timeline, I definitely learned a lot.
The Unlucky Tug does such a fantastic job with including neat facts.

@@WhattheHay Can you react to The Full Story of Flying Scotsman USA Tour by The Unlucky Tug it premiers tommorow. Also to answer your question on why he is famous. It's because he was the first engine to reach 100 mph, he is the first locomotive to travel around the world, and is the first locomotive to have 2 tenders (Maybe)
Thank you so much for reacting to this!
As for your question as to why Flying Scotsman is so famous, The Unlucky Tug just uploaded a video about that: The FULL Story of Flying Scotsman's USA Tour.

@@WhattheHay reason flying Scotsman is so famous is he's the first train to be confirmed to have hit 100 mph Truro is said to be the first but it's all alleged where as flying Scotsman did it live
@@WhattheHay Can I ask you something
Unfortunetly Sodor ISN'T a real island in the British Isles, but Awdry made the story's so realistic that Sodor looks like a real place you can visit.
5:04
The Culdee Fell Railway engines have angled boilers because if they were straight, when climbing the mountain, too much hot water and combustion would go to the back of the boiler, near the firebox, and cause the boiler to explode.
can you watch 'Why Gordon is the most important character' by the Unlucky Tug please :)
Edit: Only just realised someone else said this too XD
Heyo chaz! :P
Totally, I think that I've actually heard of that video title before.
Each time that I've done research on The Unlucky Tug or reacted to their content I always see really interesting video titles and I think that that is one of the videos that I have seen (not watched though).
I'll go ahead and jot your request down for future use and I'll let you know if I have any questions about it before I actually watch it.
Thank you for stopping by and checking out this reaction, I hope that you were able to enjoy yourself.
Have a good one friendo! :)
Within the books Sodor is real and is suppose to correlate with our real timeline when railways started and goes on.
Heyo Rin! :)
Oh gosh, that makes a bunch of sense, thank you very much for clarifying all of this with me.
I suppose with all of the live-action stuff that The Unlucky Tug was including I assumed that it was a legit thing.
It is somewhat unfortunate that it isn't actually real, that would be neat if it was.
By the way, thank you very much for stopping by and checking out this video, I really appreciate it.
Have a good one friendo! :D
@@WhattheHay Your welcome!
5:01 it's just simply because they always need to go up and down the mountains like they're professionals
Scotsman's fame comes with him being officially the first steam locomotive to go 100 mph (City of Truro's is kinda unofficial) He's the sole survivor of Nigel Gresley's A1/A3 pacifics and turns 98 years old this year. He's also toured the US (which Tug is working on covering in future) and Australia throughout his later years, and has the longest travelled distance of any steam engine. A 16 minute video of Scotsman's life can found on Chris Eden-Green's channel where he also covers almost all things about British steam trains and he even has a 5 volume DVD series called 'Steam Locos in Profile'; I highly recommend checking out his content, though you might not wanna do reactions (as much as I'd love to see them) for sake of money stuff he goes through making these.
05:07
It's to prevent damage of the boiler in a rack and pinion railway due to its steep slopes
Heyo Wallace! :)
(I love your username, I haven't seen a combination like that ever.)
Gotcha gotcha, that makes a lot of sense.
Since I'm not familiar with stuff like that it is extremely helpful when people explain it to me.
How did you personally find out about that?
Having videos like this is super nice since I am able to become more aware of the aspects that make a locomotive.
Thank you very much for the explanation and for coming by to check out this reaction, I appreciate your time.
Have a good one friendo! :]
@@WhattheHay Thank you! I learnt it off a video by "Train of Thought"
Here is the link if you want to know more ruclips.net/video/mg8u3DJO6tk/видео.html
Sodor’s completely fictitious unless someone raises the funds to build an artificial island between Britain and the Isle of Man. The reason why the Culdee Fell engines’ boilers are angled is because the water in the boiler would slosh backwards into the fire on the hills because if they weren’t angled, the boiler would explode from the sudden drop in pressure. 13:45 It was some sort of law that required covered wheels to protect animals from being dragged under the wheels and trams are the only types of engines that have covered wheels. 18:01 You really need to research this legendary locomotive. First train to reach an indicated 100 mph.
18:03 everyone likes Flying Scotsman because it was the only steam engine out of all of the A1's that wasnt scrapped and was saved, making it famous
Heyo chaz! :D
Gosh, that's pretty sad to hear that.
Is there a specific reason as to why a lot of the A1's were scrapped?
That definitely does make sense though, it's cool to see that a lot of people appreciate the Flying Scotsman's preservation.
Thank you for taking the time to let me know about this, I learn more and more about engines every day which is super neat.
I hope that things are going swell on your end.
Have a good one friendo! :)
@@WhattheHayAs new diesels were being made by BR, it wasn't long before they made mainline express models, leading to the scrapping of multiple express steam locos like the A1s, A4s, A3s, P2s, you name it!
@@WhattheHay Also, Scotsman is mostly famous for being the 1st (authenticated/proven) steam loco to go 100mph, people say City of Truro went at that speed 1st but it has never been proven
@@WhattheHay Flying Scotsman was also the first steam locomotive to Officaly hit 100mph. And later in its life it was like the rest of the class upgraded and became the A3 class. Also in 1988 its second private owner Sir William (Bill) Mcalpine brings the loco to Australia for the Bicentennial calibration Aus steam 88 were it runs many trip with other famous aussie locos like 3801. Whil hear in Australia it takes the record for longest non stop steam run.
And thats just a little bit about it. Not mentioning how much of a Monny pit it is. Lol
Loved the video.🙂
It's funny that you're reacting to some stuff in this video while keeping your face bland (not so expressive) I love it!!!
13:44 the reason Thomas isn’t allowed to go along that line anymore is because federal law states that if an engine is working along farm lands, they must have a cowcatcher and side plates to prevent people and animals from getting injured by the train.
The books are colourful, VERY anachronistic for 1940s. Most children's books would have lined black, white & red illustrations in them at the time. One of the points of making the books that size was so they use techniques from colour postcards to put full illustrations on every second page.
Thanks for reacting to this, my face quickly lite up when I saw the video in my recommend! Also could I get an update on my request for Thomas the tank engine memes #6 by Mr Ryan?
(5:04) The engines had angled boilers to keep the water level well, level as the angle of the mountain would prevent an even water level when climbing it.
The island of Sodor is a fictional island off the north west coast of the British isles. The island is based on the isle of Walney, of which Vicarstown or “Vickerstown” is a town on said island.
I know this video is 4 months old but Sodor is entirely fictional but the RWS takes place in real time with real life influences
Heyo Star! :)
Thank you for informing me about that, I had no idea before watching this video.
I have been told that the RWS contains both fictional and real themes, so it is interestign to see the combination.
I always just assumed that everything to do with Thomas the Tank Engine was fictional, but it is cool to hear that that is not entirely the case.
Thank you very much for stopping by and checking out this video, I appreciate your time.
Have a good one friendo! :]
@@WhattheHay have a good one too!
Please react to The 11 Thomas Episodes that YOU Should Watch by The Unlucky Tug.
sodor is not real😄, its just that the Reverend wilbert awdry wanted to make the island of sodor and its history as real as possible, even the engines have real life locomotive basis.
Heyo Tengku! :)
Oh gosh, that sort of stinks that it's not actually real.
However, the creativity and uniqueness behind the idea of Sodor are amazing.
Awdry put so much thought into it.
Thank you very much for explaining all of this to me, it's very helpful and kind of you to do.
With the way that The Unlucky Tug made the video, Sodor sounded like a genuine place.
Thank you very much for taking the time to check out this reaction, I really appreciate it.
Have a good one friendo! :D
Talking of that 'Kynd' joke, I recommend reacting to a redub of "Thomas' Christmas Party" by MajorEngineStudios. His redubs are quite funny.
Thanks for making these videos
75 years????? That’s older than my grandma
LOOK MOM!!! I'm on TV!
So There Are Some Parts You Dont Understand, Like Toby Being Painted in A Chocolate Brown Livery, Its Because Some Things ONLY Happen in The Railway Series (ps: sodor isnt a real place) And Also The Tv Show ADAPTED Stories From The RWS And Made Stories Of Its Own, So Thats Why You'll Recognize Some
Heyo Caledonian! :)
Oh gosh wow, I totally didn't know about that.
Toby is probably my favorite Thomas and Friends character but I don't actually know the small details about him, so thank you for mentioning the paint information.
I kind of was on the edge of assuming that Sodor wasn't real, but The Unlucky Tug included so much live footage from stuff that I started to think that it was legit.
Thank you for both relieving some of my confusion and for checking this video out, I appreciate the helpfulness and the support.
I hope that everything on your end is going smoothly.
Have a good one friendo! :D
Sodor isnt a real place but real things that happen in real life, Awdry writes in the books to make Sodor seem real. (Like putting himself in the books lol)
Heyo chaz! :)
Ooooooh gotcha gotcha, thank you for explaining that to me.
If I was an author of a book series I'd probably insert myself into it as well lol.
It would be cool if a theme park about Thomas was made to make the books seem more legit.
Thank you very much for your input and for checking out this video, I appreciate it.
Have a good one friendo! :P
@@WhattheHay The only theme park i know of is Thomas Land in the UK, and there is also a whole bunch "Day out with Thomas" events around the US, UK, Japan, Australia and more, which have real engines dressed up as thomas characters
You should react to his video of Flying Scotsman's USA Tour. I highly recommend it! 😃
Heyo Adsy! :)
I actually plan on recording a reaction to that very video today lol.
I have received quite a few requests to cover it so I am interested to see what the hype is about.
Are you a fan of The Unlucky Tug's content?
Their work is very high in quality and always super informative.
Thank you so much for coming by to check out this video and making a request, I appreciate your time.
Have a good one friendo! :]
@@WhattheHay His content is very good, really fascinating to listen to all the Thomas related stuff such as how Gordon is the real protagonist to the RWS and not Thomas. :)
I can’t believe that they came up with all these stories about Sodor when it’s actually not a real place
Does she know that there are 42 books in the railway series.
Please react to The FULL Story of Flying Scotsman's USA Tour (1969-1973) by The Unlucky Tug.
Heyo Game! :)
Sure thing, thank you for the request.
Funnily enough, I actually plan on recording a reaction to that very video today, so I am glad that I found your comment.
I have heard many good things about that video, so it will be nice to see what it is about and what it goes over.
Are you a pretty big fan of The Unlucky Tug?
There content is very unique and creative.
Thank you for the video request and for coming by to check out this content, I appreciate your time.
Have a good one friendo! :]
For your insta crash course on Flying Scotsman, Unlucky Tug did a video on him too
Heyo Jin! :)
Funnily enough, I actually plan on recording a reaction video to The Unlucky Tug's Flying Scotsman video, which should be uploaded on Monday.
Is the Flying Scotsman one of your favorite engines?
I have heard a lot of interesting history on it so watching a video that discusses the engine should be fun.
Thank you for coming by and checking this video out and making a request, I appreciate your time.
Have a good one friendo! :]
You should react to the unlucky tug’s “11 Thomas and friends episodes that YOU should watch” video. Then you should watch said episodes! 😁
Hiiiiiiiii remember me???
I haven’t been watching you’re videos lately cause they don’t get recommended to me 😭😭
Heyo Kellan! :D
Heeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeello, how have you been doin'?
Ah gosh no absolute worries, that is totally fine.
I am not exactly sure how the RUclips system works with recommendations but either way do not feel pressured or rushed to keep up with my content.
However, I do appreciate your support with checking up on videos like this.
The creative and unique lore/history within the Railways Series is super cool!
I certainly could never come up with a story like this.
Thank you very much for stopping by and watching this video, I appreciate your time.
Have a good one friendo! :]
@@WhattheHay I’ve been good, you? And you have a good one too :D
GREAT REACTION ALSO I HAVE A REQUEST FOR YOU
19:27
Flying Scotsman is so famous for being the only surviving engines of Nigel Gresley’s A3 class and had an entire trip around the US and a little bit of Canada and was the first ever preserved British Railway Locomotive to be “mainline certified”.
Fun fact Falcon is actually Sir Handel except with a different name and Peter Sam is cold Steward except he was called Steward when he was on the Bed store with walking 80-84 handle and Duke AKA Grandpa
18:01 that's the same reaction of EVERY SINGLE RAIL ENTHUSIAST maybe because he's the first to reach 100 mph because city of truro isn't actually confirmed the it reached 100mph first
Flying Scotsman went 100 mph
''He died that fantastic''
What the Hay 2021
Heyo Eddy! :)
Lol yep, sometimes my commentary isn't that creative or unique.
All of the videos that I react to are pieces of content that I'm seeing for the first time, so taking the time to process what I'm actually seeing is usually super short.
For the most part, I usually take what I see and understand it as best as possible, although my statements typically end up being short and uncreative unless there's a long pause between major events within a video.
However, it's nice to see that you found that particular phrase funny or enjoyable in some sense.
This entire video was jam-packed with interesting sections, so I had a fun time checking it out.
Thank you for giving this reaction and for providing some slight input with the quote, I appreciate your time and feedback.
Let me know if there's anything that I can do for you.
Have a good one friendo! :]
Another thing I wanted to know, did you accidentally skipped has some events? There were some that I didn’t see. It’s OK if you did, I’m just asking out of curiosity.
That's probably the case!
With my reaction videos, especially ones that are in relation to super long content, I typically only include the sections where I actually provided commentary or said something that I considered helpful for the reaction video itself.
That's kind of the tough thing about reaction videos, sometimes I don't even consider important parts of certain content, especially if I'm not familiar with the video/topic. That sometimes makes people confused and upset that I didn't feature their favorite part of a video.
You could definitely ask questions about my opinions on certain parts of a video if I didn't cover it.
Thank you for asking! :)
What the hay: so that’s the famous diesel 10
ME: he didn’t even appear in the railway series and your wrong so pinchy’s hungry!
5:03 there angled because it helps them climb mountains
Heyo S! :)
Ahhhh I see, thank you for telling me that.
I never would have understood that, mainly because I'm not that familiar with the mechanics of engines.
People are so smart, I totally wouldn't have thought of doing something like that.
Thank you very much for stopping by and checking out this reaction video, I hope that you were able to enjoy it in some way.
I also hope that everything is going well on your end.
Have a good one friendo! :D
The difference in illustrations was Rev W Awdry wasn't happy with the different ways the art was drawn, the first artist Reginald Dalby wouldn't draw the characters correctly and he resigned on Percy's book
they like the flying scostman because its a British icon
The reason the Flying Scotsman is so popular is because he's the first official locomotive sorry greatwestern fans to go 100 miles per hour and also he was in this Showcase of Britain's machinery and he went around the the world he went to America and then went to Australia
Steam Trains have a lot of histories, even though they are trains, steam trains are now rare to see beacuse been replace with modern trains
History is was more important than money
Heyo Rajo! :)
Oh wow gotcha.
I don't know that much about trains so information like this is super helpful.
I have a friend who absolutely loves talking about trains/engines and I asked him what he thinks about the transition from steam/diesel to electric/modern trains.
I'm really interested to see how much railroad travel will decrease or increase in the future.
Thank you for taking some time out of your day to check this video out and for explaining some important information to me, I really appreciate it.
Have a good one friendo! :D
15:59 because sodor has really bad luck.
15:26 woah, woah, woah! Do you mean to tell me, that in The Railway Series there were different Sir Topham Hatt’s. 😮😮😮😮😮😮
Um pls do TUGS the greatest show you've never seen by the unlucky tugs
Can you please react to the rest of the Sodor’s finest series? You would really like his profiling of a lot of the characters.
I do believe that I've received requests in the past for specific episodes from that series!
I can't specifically recall if any reactions are scheduled for that content soon, but I do know that I've taken requests about it in the past, so they'll release at some point.
It's nice to hear that you're familiar with the series as well.
I've heard lots of good things about it, so I look forward to checking them out when the time comes.
Do you have a favorite episode/video from the series? :]
@@WhattheHay my favorite one from the series is the entire history of Skarloey. That episode holds special significance for me because I was going through a hard time before I discovered unlucky tug’s channel, and that particular video really helped me get back into the fandom. It brought back a lot of memories for me in terms of some of the stuff that he references in there, and it also peak my interest in heritage railways. Finding it, and the unlucky tug for that matter, gave me the happiness I was missing, and a new passion.
Stewart and falcon are now called Sir Handel and Peter Sam
I’m happy to be back
Flying Scotsman is famous because he was the real first engine to break 100 mph
Now i can’t unsee it being Ffarquad instead of Ffarquar 😅
Do flying scottman or gordon is will be mad lmao
The flying scotsman is famous because of his speed last time i checked.
They used Gored for part for the other engines witch I think is dark
Heyo Molly! :P
Oh woah, I had no idea.
It's really interesting to see how different content creators/film makers use different characters and models to fit various scenes.
I totally wouldn't know who to use.
Even though I don't know that much about Thomas and Friends it definitely does seem a bit weird that they would use that character for that.
Thank you for checking out this video, I really appreciate the support.
Have a good one friendo! :]
Hey, I just wanted to say that I really enjoy watching your Thomas reaction videos. Regarding the part about Diesel 10: ruclips.net/video/S1IYdmLjy4w/видео.html, that's Diesel. Diesel 10 is the one with the claw on his rooftop, but he doesn't appear until Thomas & the Magic Railroad (after Season 5)
Sadly its not real (sorry to burst your bubble) but its still ver in depth realistic and just amazing, Though the Furness LMS and british railways are real, so are all of the towns not on Sodor
The reason why the Flying Scotsman is popular because it is the only A1/A3 that is still used in service. Another reason why the Flying Scotsman is popular because it was the first engine to reach 100 MPH excluding the fact that City Of Truros 100 mph run wasn't really official, it also went on a American tour by the famous driver Alan Pegler.
Please react to Ackley Attack TV's The History of Thomas and the Magic Railroad: A "Sparkle, Sparkle, Sparkle" Story video.
Let's all agree in one thing, the 20th Century was quite eventful.
for the intro take a shot each time she says what the hay.
Heyo Lost! :)
Oh no lol I would definitely not recommend doing that.
That is funny though, thank you for the laugh.
I haven't really ever thought about the number of times that I say that...maybe I should rethink my intro lol.
Thank you very much for stopping by and checking this video out, I hope that you were able to enjoy it in some way.
Are you a fan of the Thomas and Friends community?
I hope that everything is going well on your end.
Have a good one friendo! :D
@@WhattheHay I grew up with Thomas and thanks I will have a good one.
The Island of Sodor is a fictional island created by Wilbert Audrey however though it is fictional, it is influenced by real world events and all of the characters are based off of real life engines that were and are real. The Island of Sodor’s location would be between the UK and The Isle of Man and also the island of Sodor is connected to the Mainland ( The UK ) by a bridge and the North Western Railway connects to Barrow-in-furness which is a real town in the real world, so though the Island is fake, it is influenced by real events that happened in real life like the Diesel’s becoming popular in the UK and their are also characters that are basically in real life like Stepeney and The Flying Scotsman. Their are a lot of Real World influences that make the Island of Sodor feel like a real place though it’s not.
I love your vids
They would be angled due to the fact when climbing up the mountain their sloped boilers would become straight.
That’s diesel devious
James used to be black because he was running a short railway
Rws music total bop lol
Flying Scotsman is not only one of the few engines to go as fast as 100 Miles per hour and is also the only A3 engine still around it’s also famous for both its image and its fast speed
Godred's accident is based off of an actual accident that happened.
Also people like Scotsman because he broke 100 mph and city of Truro was the second to go 100 mph
You've got it the wrong way round
You should consider reacting to episodes of Theodore Tugboat. Its up there with Thomas in terms of classics!
Oh yeah
Heyo Dave! :D
Funnily enough, your username reminded me that I need to find some games from Roblox for a future Roblox gaming video.

The Unlucky Tug did a fantastic job of including facts and information that was interesting to learn about, even for a person like me who isn't very aware of everything in the series.
Had you seen the video before this reaction was put up?

Normen was found in 1/15/1923
Nice
2:45 no sodor is fictional.
As much as I wish Sodor was real, most of the information in the video you reacted to is fictional, the exceptions being the Barrow Blitz in 1941, the first book coming out in 1945, the newly crowened Queen going on a tour of the railway regions in 1951, engines starting to be scrapped in 1963, steam officially being ended in 1968, the show starting in 1984, an engine being named Wilbert in 1987, and Wilbert Awdry sadly dying in 1997, thoes facts are true to real life. HOWEVER, if anything, that makes it even better because The Unlucky Tug, while amazingly compiling it into one video, did not make any of this information up. All of this is lore and history created by Rev. W. Awdry, and his son Christopher, which shows how dedicated they were to making Sodor realistic and have reasons for being the way it is.
Sorry for such a long comment...
Also, as a side note, Diesel 10 is different from Diesel, and was not in the Railway Series.
