Pretty cool set! You did a good job showcasing all of the neat pieces in this set! It's amazing how they made such a large set without having a lot of pieces!
From what I can tell, replace the shrunk down knapford station with the actual station, and replace the horrendous turntable with an actual one along with the sheds and this set will be 10 times better. For an added bonus, use the twin signal track piece, include Edward, coal trucks, coaches and this set will come to life.
Great review Keekre That Crosby coal loader would be a great way to load cargo from standard gauge to narrow gauge If you weren't using the loader as Crosby coal loader P.S. Thomas Wood more like Thomas-Firewood
TheTrain Man13 Okay, is anyone else getting really tired of the constant bashing against Thomas Wood? Like, we get it! Wood is crap, can we please move on? Also, recently, it was revealed that Mattel have had a decrease in resources since 2013 and without the budget to supply those resources, they’ve had to change a lot of the merchandise due to their tight budget.
TheTrain Man13 I’m not offended, I’m just tired of hearing the same crap about Thomas Wood with the fandom not bothering to check the recent business news as to why it’s happened.
TheTrain Man13 It’s alright, a majority of the fandom is just ignorant to the business decisions because they think that Mattel is purposely being lazy.
It's a shame that none of the online-exclusive items were available to people outside of the US - Mattel needs to realize that there are international Thomas fans too that are willing to pay money to get the toys.
This set feels like a modern day take on the old "james goes buzz buzz set." Never had this set as a kid, but I know I would have loved it. Honestly love the turntable and coal loader
Great job Keekre. I throughly enjoyed the review and I do own the set myself. I really like the fact that is has many switches included and the exclusive destinations are also really nice. The turntable is the weakest part in my opinion and could've been better designed. Keep up the great work with these reviews!
Just picked up this set today from my local Tuesday Morning for $100! While I wish I could have gotten the set just a bit cheaper, I'm happy to have all these rare pieces for my collection as I'm a nut for both destinations and switches.
To be honest, this set reminds me of the A Day at the Works set, but even so, it needs a little more work to make it greater. I would keep everything relatively the same, but the first thing I would do is make the set a full rectangle by keeping both V switches and installing an X switch, but I would make the Knapford station building that would be like the one from the 90's(2 parallel lines running under 1 canopy). The next thing would be to install a Muffle mountain type hill between the curve behind Knapford and the Crosby coal tunnel. Next would be to put in Crosby station and a siding that ends at a ramp. Next would be to put a small yard, a turntable, and three special engine sheds next to Knapford station. The next thing would be to install some points on the left curve on the back line that lead to Brendam docks. Here's the rest of the inclusions for the set... Engines and other viechles: concerned Edward, angry Gordon, dirty happy Logan, Cranky, and a cargo ship. Rolling stock: 3 red brass Band branchline coaches, 6-8 troublesome Crosby coal trucks, 2 troublesome oil tankers, 3 troublesome bubble soap tankers, and 3 sodorline cabooses. Figures: the brass Band, 7 passengers, Mr. Bubbles, 6 miners, 12 trees, and 5 workers. Destinations: Knapford station, Knapford yard, 3 special engine sheds, a turntable, 2 stop and go stations, the Crosby coal tunnel, 2 Crosby coal hoppers, the coal yard, a Crosby coal car loader, Muffle mountain hill, the bubble factory, a guard shed and gate, a Crosby switch tower, the Bandstand, the oil depot, the docks, and a water tower. For an accessory set, this would include a shocked Duck, a sad Duck with shaving cream on his face, shocked James, 2 Knapford express coaches, 3 troublesome box cars, 2 open troublesome trucks with shaving cream crates, the Spiteful break van, the breakdown train, the barber shop with white wall size doors that blend into the wall for when Duck crashes, 2 special engine sheds, a barber, 2 customers, a worried Gaurd with a whistle, Sir Topham Hatt, Lady Hatt, and 3 workers.
GreatWesternStudios Santiago Can we please move on from the Wood bashing?! I’ll have you know that it’s recently been revealed that Mattel has had a decrease in resources since 2013 and without the budget to supply those resources, they’ve had to change a lot of the merchandise due to their tight budget.
I would use that Knapford station signal box as a another extension to Knapford station because Knapford station has lines of track to go on or use it as Knapford junction.
The coal loader reference to Toby from Calling All Engines has also happened to Percy in the episode Middle Engines where Henry bumps him on a similar way as Toby
Great Review On Another Sodor Story Collection Set. Yeah, Edward could've been included with this set to add more like the book and Your incorrectly said The Crosby Coal Depot which is similar to The Coal Depot, Featured in Calling All Engines. Actually it is first featured in Season 6 in the episode, Middle Engine (which we shouldn't speak about how badly treated Percy was in the episode) When Henry backed into the trucks on the loading ramp.
I think this set is awesome and I'd kill for one. As of now these are super expensive online, Amazon is selling the set without the book for 800 bucks which is way to high for any thomas wooden railway item. These were never at discount stores in Canada which is a shame.
Currently, this is the last Sodor Story Collection set that I have in my collection as of right now. I wouldn't mind picking up and reviewing the other sets in the future though if I find them at a good price!
One Track Mind That Logan version is exclusive to this set (it's dirty), he can always sell his extra normal engines, and there are some other cool destinations, like that coal hopper.
The two main reasons I got this set was because I wanted the brass band coach and the coal loader. But I was also happy to get the dirty version of Logan, another CGI Gordon in case something happens to mine, and all of the other destinations and extra track. :)
I really don't know as I don't live in Ireland. Maybe try your local toy stores and see if they have anything? Otherwise I would recommend checking out eBay and Amazon.
The only thing I've said in the past is that I don't like the toys, but I'm not going to make a video or anything expressing my thoughts on the situation. But I won't be using any Wood products in my videos if I can help it.
RIP Thomaswoodenrailway It’s been a long day without you my friend and I’ll tell you all about it when I see you again
yes
Great review! I love the look of Logan. I hope I can find one to use in my videos! Cheers! 😊👍

That coal loader is also in the episode Middle Engine. Cool set piece indeed! Wish Wooden Railway wasn't Wood.
Don't we all...
225$? Jeez, that is crazy. I mean, cool stuff here, but I'd expect a bit more for that.

still haven't found my dog lucy,but as long as you keep making videos life is great
Thank God I bought this set on the Fisher-Price website before it was sold out!
Fantastic Review! This set Is So Cool!

This set looks boss
I wish that Thomas Wooden Railway would return.

Now they gave a train named Logan that's pretty cool I unfortunately do not watch the newer animated version much I should though :)
Great review keekre
Thank you!
Great review! I really want this set, but because Mattel decided to sell firewood, it's only one in a million chance that I could get it.

Nice!
Thanks for watching!
Do you think thomas wooden railway will make a comeback?
Great review and I wanted it but could never find it
Thanks for watching!
I'm sure the signal box represents a signal outside Knapford.
You could be right, but the box artwork and instructions refer to it as Knapford Station.
@@ThomasWoodenRailway I would use it for that, still it doesn't really represent Knapford well.
Cool 😎 set!
Thanks for watching!
The coal loader reference to Toby from Calling All Engines has also happened to Percy in the episode Middle Engines where Henry bumps him on a similar way as Toby
totalrek26+ and Middle Engine -_- came first.

I would love to get this set or even the James sorts it out set.
I hate the fact they never made it to the UK.
I could of used Logan to make Raul.
Great Job:)
Thank you very much!

Good video man I think the set could of been better
Thanks!
The Mattel-Fisher-Price website still has Thomas wooden railway 😃And the date is 2-27-18
Nice
with the coal loader u should use it at the transfer station
That would be cool!
The coal depot reminds me of that Time in season 6 when Percy....
Gordon: Oh, the indignity!
I think we all know why this is my favourite twr item!
I think I know why too! :)
By the way maybe i missed the explanation, but why did you choose keekre as a name for your
channel at one point
It was just a made-up name that I thought of when it was time for me to create my channel. That's all there is to it. :)
you are my favourite twr Utuber :)
Thanks! :)
Awesome review! Now that we have Thomas Wood, (I call it Thomas Garbage) it’s highly unlikely I’ll find it in stores. But maybe on eBay
Stop.
Thanks for watching!
You’re welcome
History Fan Actually you stop
I love the coal loader it reminds me of one favorite Thomas and Friends middle engines
RIP WOODEN RAILWAY
:(
ThomasWoodenRailway
Seriously, people. Get over it. If you hate Wood so much, then make your own wooden railway items.
Are you going to review the other story collection sets?
Currently, this is the last Sodor Story Collection set that I have in my collection as of right now. I wouldn't mind picking up and reviewing the other sets in the future though if I find them at a good price!
ThomasWoodenRailway if you go on Amazon there are some story collection sets that are not expensive
Will you put the destinations in your layout for your series
Absolutely! I will definitely be using some of the destinations from this set in my series. :)
Yay can you please bring charlie bash dash Ferdinand Dustin Emily for your series at least for a cameo?
I just got one, my favorite piece is the coal loader, you don't really get pieces like that everyday.
What is your thoughts about Thomas wood?
I don't like it.
can u do Thomas & the Emergency Cable ?
the coal loader reminds me of the episode middle engine
May I ask why you got this ? You already have CGI Gordon and Logan.
One Track Mind That Logan version is exclusive to this set (it's dirty), he can always sell his extra normal engines, and there are some other cool destinations, like that coal hopper.

The Random Porcupine Man true
Kukaak CZ I know
ThomasWoodenRailway I understand
Next is probably Sam and the great bell whatever you call it
i like thomas wooden railway logan and sam
Yaaaay
I need that coal loader thingy for doing things like in middle engine where henry pushes percy into the lifty thing (i forget the word)
The track looks like it lines up with the playtable
Coincidence? I think not!
Cool set. Not the best, but still cool.
I could get Logan and another set for 100 cheeper then 1 back in the day
Do you know where to get TWR in Ireland
I really don't know as I don't live in Ireland. Maybe try your local toy stores and see if they have anything? Otherwise I would recommend checking out eBay and Amazon.
“I got is from a discount store” AKA TJ MAXX
Not TJ Maxx, but HomeGoods. :)
does it come with gordon tho
Hey twr have u ever given your thoughts on Thomas wood brand yet?
The only thing I've said in the past is that I don't like the toys, but I'm not going to make a video or anything expressing my thoughts on the situation. But I won't be using any Wood products in my videos if I can help it.
ThomasWoodenRailway alright thank for replying as always.
review Sam and the great bell set
Can you stop spamming this?
I don't have the Sam and the Great Bell set so I can't do a review on it.
Wow!
My name is Logan
Review the super station
I have the brass band coach
I thought this was a good set. Just wish Logan wasn't an exclusive character.
Logan is available in a book pack or individually on eBay if you want him but don't want to spend the money on an entire set. :)
I really like Logan and the coal loader fantastic the rest is okay
Track spinning ba bob thing
Edward should be included
If I could give a rating to the coal loader, I would give it a toBEE :P
Woap
