S1, EP2: The Marklin Engine (Audio Story)
Happy New Year everyone! I said I would be back and I am pleased to announce that I will be more productive this year. Following with how much I enjoyed doing 'James and the Old Coaches', I wanted to do another 'Thomas & Friends' audio story, this one a little different than the previous installment.
In this story, the engines are annoyed with a tank engine named Marklin, who has been on the railway long before Thomas' arrival. After Percy witnesses an argument between Gordon and Marklin, he feels that something is not right with the old engine.
This story is based off a true fact that during the first series of Thomas & Friends, there was an unseen engine working in the background of some of the episodes and following Behind the Scenes content, I wanted to do a little story based around this unknown engine. This video can be enjoyed by Thomas & Friends fans young or old, so I hope you will all enjoy this new story. Many best wishes for 2022 and I will see you all soon...

I do love how Marklin has Puffa's whistle. Lovely foreshadowing.
The Marklin Engine appeared in Off The Rails assisting in Gordon's Rescue from the Ditch you can see 2 headlamps passing by those lamps belonging to Marklin

You are correct. This story takes place after the first series, similar to 'James and the Old Coaches', another of my stories. That story in particular explains what became of the old coaches after the first series and why the red branch line coaches appeared from series two onward

Fun fact after series 3 of Thomas and friends the marklin engine was actually torn apart into pieces and used in the background for scrap engine parts although they did use his chassis for stuff like Toby and his chassis can also be briefly seen in the episode busy going backwards where it can be seen pushing towed and the trucks
This came up in my recommendations and I'm glad I clicked on it. You don't get many stories centred around that one obscure background engine and this was a really good story.
That was a great story! I felt sorry for Marklin after what Thomas and Gordon did to him, but this story showed how Marklin missed his old Railway.
I feel like at the end is gonna be a montage tribute to Tugs showing refilmed scenes of the star tugs but with Marklin’s new face along with a orchestra of the ending theme from tugs.
Wow, brilliant to acknowledge the background Marklin engine, which I learnt pretty much about in my adulthood! You gotta feel sorry for him if nobody notices him ever since Thomas came. Also nice to hint this story is connected to Tugs with him moving to Bigg City Port.
I love that the events of this story were followed up in your recent crossover!
Seth Reid: Marklin became a new member of the North Western Railway on Sodor and visited the Furry Metatonia Railways in the Furry Kingdom and the Equestria Lunar Railway in Equestria.
Oh I get it! Marklin becomes Puffa and then goes to big city port and becomes friends with Ten Cents and the star fleet!
We defo need a sequal story to this 1) he visits & tells storys of bigg city port or see marklin how he left sodor to his overhaul & meeting with the star tugs
This really does work as a story. We get to learn about Marklin and why he is on the railway. A shame we don't get to learn about his personality. But well done on this superb story 👍😀.

Yes.
That was Clever! I love how you got Marklin in this story and how he became Puffa.
What a great story about Marklin!😁 Also, love the reference to TUGS!👍
Marklin Is a Perfect Candidate For a Season 1 Thomas and Friends Character! :D
5:51: *TUGS theme intensifies*
I believed you Kiefer Adams, I first thought that Puffa was the engine from Tugs, but now I understand why after he was formally known as Marklin, he was named after the model making company Marklin as it known to be then, so I’m glad he has an overhaul and everything, I thought that I managed to recognise him, but he looks very special and really useful too
Marklin kinda sounds a bit like Forte from _Beauty and the Beast: The Enchanted Christmas._ That "fade into the background" bit got me thinking. Also, like Forte, Marklin blames Thomas for ruining it for him, making him feel less important and needed. At least he doesn't go mad and try to bring the house down. 😜 There's even a inkling of Scar in him when he calls Thomas a "little blue runt" who came along, and Gordon is all "That little blue runt is my son and your future king." 😉 Meanwhile, a fine story about Marklin and a fine way to link him to _TUGS._
Percy - Gordon there was no need for that Me - actually yes there was, he had it coming to him
marklin is actually based off a German tank engine if he misses home he should be sent back to Germany
It would be awesome if Marklin was in the CGI series

He was! Only as a scrapped model in Blue Mountain Mystery though.
A story about Märklin? I love it its not often we see people do stories on Märklin so its always nice to see them! The ending was really sweet too. Great work
That was clever that you inserted Puffa's whistle to the Marklin Engine.
Nicely done story of this obscure character!
The Marklin Engine was used as Engine in the Original TV Series.
This is a Brilliant Story.
"It's a Bigg City Port like no other. He'll be just fine." Until he nearly got blown up thanks to the incompetence of a tugboat owned by the US Navy.
AWESOME STORY!
I wonder if Marklins old friends could visit him once in a while?
This takes place after thomas's christmas party
Nice
Another good audio story, are these stories adaptable? cause I would love to adapt this story!

my au goes like this when the star fleet and zero fleet whent bankroupt and diesel tugs are taking over big city port and both captains sold their tugs to sodor and marklin stayed in his gray livery and marklin / puffa his friends are on sodor when both star and zero fleet hear that bigg city port was dieselized

Actually, I have a theory that puffa and marklin are the same, after season 2, marklin was no longer needed, and got sent to bigg city port, and they later named him puffa.
The Marklin Engine aka Puffa.
This seems like a season 1 episode
Pretty cool huh
On my giddy engine that was awsome
so all of these stories are set in S1 & 2?
