Reality, something more scarier than any slasher or ghost story. This is an Edward nightmare for sure. Not so much as getting scrapped but being the grim reaper to all his friends before they do him last. Like Beeching wanted to punish him the most.
If you want unsettling horror, this is far and away the best take on it I’ve seen with Thomas. This was genuinely depressing to watch, bravo Mr lampiron. You’ve made a true Halloween classic with this. I genuinely dreaded every minute of this video, watching the characters we know in the middle of the beeching act. The only thing I don’t understand is why would they scrap Stephen. He’s way too historically significant to be scrapped. But apart from that this was truly amazing.
It was all a nightmare on Edwards part IMO. I mean him to be basically the grim reaper for all his friends watching how Beeching finally won over sodor, the fear that all steam engines face. Sounds more like a nightmare to me. But yeah, it was a good video for Halloween, reality can be scarier than any slasher killer.
I only have one complaint and it's The scene when splatter and dodge have Stephen. It doesn't make since for Stephen to be scrapped since he's privately owned. The same will go with Conner and Catlin if their in the au.
@@Thomasfan2002-pt7ht maybe because he's not the actual stephenson's rocket and (my head-canon) they didn't want the replica of the real thing so they took him away
That universe is definitely something I hate to be part of. That is the most cruelest fate despite how much they want preserved. I wish it ended with James waking up from a nightmare.
This is honestly, one of the best ideas for a Thomas Halloween story I've ever seen. Real events, every second you know what'll happen to those you pass by, and it hurts 10x more. And the ending where Edward left James behind caught me off guard. I thought they were sending them both to knock out 2 birds with 1 stone, but to be told Edward was effectively made to be Sodors "Grim Reaper" so to speak (carting engines off to their death) is all the more saddening. Well done, very well done. The final part of the ending, where Edward says "Its Time" while remembering Boco, that is a very good way to leave the audience suspenseful without giving too much away, can't wait to see what's cooking up next.
As the writer of the script, thank you so much for your support! It was something I had on my mind and I decided to bring it to Sodor. Thank you for the support!
I think Trevor had the best outcome, because it implied in his goodbye and thank you that he went peacefully, and his eyes closing I think only adds to my theory he went peacefully.
Uh,Beaching does knows he is kinda screwed right,i mean,The visitors come to Sodor to see the Engines,thanks to the Railway Series,but sence the majority of them are all but gone,less and less visitors will come and the Railway will shut down.
Now THIS is how you write a Halloween Thomas story. This was seriously...so well done. The writing, the emotional hits, everything. I am truly impressed with what you've managed to create. Well done. I almost cried at the end.
"Thomas, Donald, Douglas, and Oliver would runaway to the mainland. Thomas was taken in by the national railway museum, Donald and Douglas went to the bluebell railway, and Oliver would go to Scotland"
"Edward was brutally killed by diesel 10 by shoving him into a crane. Gordon was saved by Scotsman, and they now pull railtours together. Henry was left to die in a hole after falling into it. He was later rescued. Percy was sent to a prison by beeching for starting a rebellion against the man in 1960, and for his crimes, he got the death sentence, which was carried out in 1970. Toby was burned alive for joining Percy's rebellion in 1969. Duck would suicide bomb knapford station with Beeching inside in 1973.
I like how the engines are at least put in steam for one last time as shown when james has steam coming out of his funnel and we hear his whistle same with percy and toby having steam though sheffield wasnt and james pulls into the scrapyard
I'd like to think that some of the engines that will be preserved are Duck, Donald, Douglas, Emily, and Arthur (yes I know he was last seen at the scrap yard but he could still be saved)
Death, is an inevitable thing, that is faced by everyone, and everything. Even time itself, has an end. Including Sodor, the place where steam engines could call home. After the dieselization made by Dr. Beeching after Sir Topham Hatt`s passing, every steam engine, privately owned or not, were ordered to be taken by Edward, Sodor`s oldest and kindest engine, to the Smelter`s Yard to be scrapped. Except for the Skarloey Railway, as they were only for tourism. Edward didn`t want it at first, but he knows that even if he keeps refusing to bring them to their demise, Beeching would just order other diesels to do it. And so he took the job. He couldn`t but feel angry and sad, both at the same time. He was force to become the Grim Reaper to his friends, whom he has lived alongside for many decades. But it was clear to him that everything has an ending, including their stories. One, by one, he took them all to meet with the Cutter`s Torch. He felt horrible for all of them, but most importantly, his friends. They would all tell their life stories to him, to which he remembers very well. After stopping by a nearby water tower for a refill, he took a few seconds to remember what date it was. 14th of August. A day after Gordon`s last express run from Knapford, to Burrow. He felt terrible for the big engine. He remembered a conversation from some diesels in the yard while he was taking a break. Gordon had made himself stuck on his hill on purpose. When the diesels arrived there, his face was just, hopeless and sad, unlike the usual pouty, annoyed face he had back in the days. Gordon didn`t want to go. He wanted to just, sit on his hill until his side rods rusts away, as his lively blue paint disappears into a gloomy maroon. After the journey he had with James from Tidmouth to the scrapyards, he felt his guilt weighing him very heavily as he stopped by where Bill and Ben last were, fixing up a broken track. He cherished those two. He cherished them so much to the point they were like his own children. He didn`t want to see them go. But alas, he reminded himself once again, that everything, has an ending, even their stories. He tells himself that it was time. Soon, after that day, the diesels he had befriended, they never saw him again. Sir Topham Hatt`s engines are now in a better place. Together, once again.
Is it odd that I hate and like this here at the same time? Thank god it ain't actual cannon in almost everywhere though it gives a good glimpse of what could have happened if BR won...
When Edward said "its time" that was him excepting being scrapped and having to take bill and Ben next, that's why I put in the stop your making me giddy because Edward was thinking of the twins and the funny things they've done over the years
Its a line from either Bill or Ben, Edward was remembering all the things theyve done over the years, and now its time for him to take them to the scrapyard
nice video... but to be honest, it's not just the Skarloey Railway that would be safe from scrapping. All of Sodor would be safe, because the island's economy thrives on Tourism. seriously, look it up. Many island nations still use steam power for a sense of nostalgia, and they thrive on tourism.
@@Lampironstudios215 you do know that therevare 12 black 5 right i think henry will be one of them and will do rail tours and gordon q Will go with his brothers and do the same
This video was very sad Spamcan and old stuck up?? The narrow gauge... Emily Edward James Stephen Glynn and Henry are the top 10 oldest engines that were operating in the island...
@bathlaham1958 to be fair i did say pretty much all of them, meaning there are a few still around like the original rocket in the science museum in london, or the skr and talyllyn railways etc.
Also please turn this into a series please I want to see what Edward meant by it’s time I wanna see how Furgus Spencer Murdoch Percy and Oliver turn out
It’s a cliffhanger which lets you theorise what will happen next… as the writer of the script, I can confirm that ‘It’s time’ is talking about Edward bringing Bill and Ben away.
If you listened in the 60s British rail went under dieselisation, they mentioned topham had passed and was replaced by beeching, who infamously cut a lot of rail services and steam engines to save on costs.
because they are iron work horses they work until they die that’s what locomotives are face or not, its like they are a imitation of human life though as locos
For a jinty youd get about 15000-17000 dollars for scrap as from what i searched 313 dollars per ton of steel and just look at a jintys weight light compared to other locos
How do you mean? If you mean why they are going to the scrap yard it’s because the controller died and then someone else took over and started phasing out the steam engines
Reality, something more scarier than any slasher or ghost story. This is an Edward nightmare for sure. Not so much as getting scrapped but being the grim reaper to all his friends before they do him last. Like Beeching wanted to punish him the most.
Like how they did 5213 in 1976
Thomas and a select few other engines would be kept around pulling rail tours around the country
If you want unsettling horror, this is far and away the best take on it I’ve seen with Thomas.
This was genuinely depressing to watch, bravo Mr lampiron. You’ve made a true Halloween classic with this.
I genuinely dreaded every minute of this video, watching the characters we know in the middle of the beeching act.

I only have one complaint and it's The scene when splatter and dodge have Stephen. It doesn't make since for Stephen to be scrapped since he's privately owned. The same will go with Conner and Catlin if their in the au.
Why did they have Stephen anyway? He deserves better
Yeah but like what if Stephen isn't privately owned in this universe?
Number one, Connor and Catlin are mainland engines. number two, if sir, topham hatt was gone. The earl of Sodor would probably be gone too.
@aubreyspann9906 the earl is one of the richest and power men on Sodor. Just cus the railway controller changes doesn't mean he'll also leave.

It might be a nightmare because dreams tend to be very weird. Stephen is privately owned,so he wouldn’t be scrapped.

As the writer of the script, thank you so much for your support! It was something I had on my mind and I decided to bring it to Sodor. Thank you for the support!
I’d love to see a cruel irony, the diesels being replaced by newer electrics and multiple units
Being haunted by Dudley
I think Trevor had the best outcome, because it implied in his goodbye and thank you that he went peacefully, and his eyes closing I think only adds to my theory he went peacefully.
Uh,Beaching does knows he is kinda screwed right,i mean,The visitors come to Sodor to see the Engines,thanks to the Railway Series,but sence the majority of them are all but gone,less and less visitors will come and the Railway will shut down.
In this universe it'd be like a tax write-off for David Zaslav. I doubt he'd care less.
7:23 Navater:On a pile of Scrap was the rusted remains of Neville. His face had disappeared, leaving a smokebox door in its place.
That's cruel, making Edward tow his fellow engines to scrap.
On September 7th (1976) 25063 hauled 24055/56/60/136 as the 9X75 06.45 Crewe - Banbury - Swindon Works (scrap yard).
Edward would honestly make a good grim reaper.
@@ThatDiamondGuy1565 I think he would absolutely suck at the job of being the grim reaper

This Was Amazing, I’m Glad I Was Able To Voice In This
A honour to have worked with you in this video!
"Thomas, Donald, Douglas, and Oliver would runaway to the mainland. Thomas was taken in by the national railway museum, Donald and Douglas went to the bluebell railway, and Oliver would go to Scotland"
That’s a cool take
"Edward was brutally killed by diesel 10 by shoving him into a crane. Gordon was saved by Scotsman, and they now pull railtours together. Henry was left to die in a hole after falling into it.

Plot twist: it was all a dream
I think it is
I do want it to be too 😢🚂
I think that it was James’s dream then after the video James woke up crying and Edward woke up and helped James
@@Bearthediesel this this is what happened in my eyes. Also Edward being the usual family man he is or train 😄🙂🚂
Yes that isn't true
This is like in the 1950s when the diesels took over the steam engines and this is where they all get scrapped
I like how the engines are at least put in steam for one last time as shown when james has steam coming out of his funnel and we hear his whistle same with percy and toby having steam though sheffield wasnt and james pulls into the scrapyard
A wise band once greatly said, “And I wish we all could stay. But I bid you, a farewell.”
This is so sad I'm sorry for all of them
I'd like to think that some of the engines that will be preserved are Duck, Donald, Douglas, Emily, and Arthur (yes I know he was last seen at the scrap yard but he could still be saved)
Thomas would be saved pretty quick
If news came out about him being decommissioned, every railfan and their dog would flock to sodor to save him and maybe some others
Thomas is a must have
Everyone would fight to preserve him
This could've ended with Edward waking up from a dream. Still works the way it is
This reminds me of a story I read on Wattpad called 'The Island's Swansong'... damn, now I'm sad...
I looked this up, got sucked in, jesus fuck that was good.
I remember reading that too. It was quite good.
