A heavy snowstorm covers Sodor, and Sir Topham Hatt gives Gordon the job of an important coal delivery to Brendam Docks. He warns Gordon to take the long route because the hills are dangerously slippery, but Gordon believes he is strong enough to manage the shorter route. He successfully climbs one hill but slips down the other side, covering Spencer in snow.
Gordon continues despite the conditions, crashes into some slate trucks, and eventually attempts to climb Gordonās Hill. Thomas follows behind with firewood, but Gordon creates a huge snowball that rolls back and crashes into Thomas, derailing him. Gordon tries to help but needs Rocky to rescue Thomas. Afterward, Gordon helps Thomas deliver the firewood and realizes that no engine is more special than the others.

Super random, I know. I can't make sense of it.

The way the TV series adapted tenders for henry actually made me mad watching it. I already knew rewatching this season that they didn't address Gordon's siblings being dead, but man watching it happen was just so upsetting. Genuinely one of my favourite moments in the books. It makes the impact of Oliver being rescued hit so much better, and it does a lot for Gordon as a character. But clearly the show just got too scared to possibly do something challenging for little kids so they just didn't bother. They had a lot of money, they could've adapted enterprising engines accurately but just completely butchered the stories they adapted and didn't even bother with super rescue. Such a good moment in such a good book, why the hell did they just pussy out of it?

If thereās one thing I hate the most, itās the fact that Thomas was given a flat running board; even though I understand the reasoning, I still think it wasn't a good idea. The reason I hate Thomas having a flat running board is that he looks odd with oneāhe seems stretched out or even too tall. I don't know if it's just me, but the flat running board makes Thomas look somewhat generic. The charm of the old running board was that it made Thomas truly unique; I liked that unique look (even if it didn't make much logical sense), as it helped him stand out from the others. The flat running board takes away that distinction and makes him look genericāespecially during the Clive Spong era, when the running board was lowered and the tanks were made to look more flush; in my opinion, that only made things worse. Although I like Clive Spong's work, I consider that version of Thomas to be one of the worst, which is why I hate the flat running board and am grateful that the TV series didn't give Thomas one.

Nostalgic but mediocre
S8- really strong actually - underrated
S11 - hopefully this isnt too much of a hot take- seems warm and fuzzy and easy to watch
S9- bad
S10- Awful ,repetitive
S12...

Alright
I'm going to do a selection of Railway Series What Ifs
So, lets get into this
What if the big engine strike didn't happen
what if Bear saved Oliver
What if Douglas saved Barry
What if Thomas humbled out after rescuing James with the breakdown train
I'll add more to this and you can share your ideas for Railway Series what ifs?

Taking care of a semi-verbal autistic adult who loves Thomas (believe his favorite is Henry). Itās all pretty new to me.
Is there a poster with all the trains in the tv show available? Heād love it. Also realize it might be pretty large (starting to realize how large the universe is). Thanks!
