Duncan is the best character in Thomas and an ideal personality He may be a bit strong in language but he ain’t afraid to tell the truth no matter who he hurts, but at the same time he isn’t at all stubborn, once he sure he is in the wrong he will change his opinions so quickly and suddenly you would think he never thought the other opinion, period Edit: grammar

He’s always a plain speaking engine. I mean, sure, the HIT era dumbed him down a bit, but he was DEFINITELY better than the other three engines. No, I do not believe Sir Handel and Peter Sam were ruined. Sir Handel matured, and Peter Sam *remained* a child, like he was.

As garbage as Duncan’s CGI render was, his episodes were pretty good.

Dont blame the producers who made Duncan in CGI. Douglas, his basis, was under repair during production. So they couldnt measure him so they had to make his model without measurements and so thats why he isnt very identical.

It’s cool that the real locomotive scraping a tunnel was the inspiration for home at last. I always liked real railway stories being inspirations for some Thomas stories, it added realism.

The Narrow Gauge museum is not just near the Talyllyn Railway, it is literally AT the Talyllyn Railway. It's basically the Tywyn station building and I've seen all the NG Skarloey models in person :)

I had a trackmaster Duncan and fearless Freddie

I've been looking forward to Duncan

Well here's Duncan but where is his donuts

"Nothings happened Nothing's happened silly old diesel clever me"

Cgi Duncan is basically a take and play because of that red running board

Honestly small Duncan works so well. We all know small things are the angriest ;)

Duncan (and Henry) has been my favourite because of the fact that he's basically a communst, but I think that he has some form of PTSD from constantly seeing slaughtered animals in that factory.

An amazing episode the history and Thomas and Friends on their models as usual

It’s mr rock and roll himself!!

I saw Douglas as Duncan at the Talyllyn railway as I remember seeing Douglas as Duncan at the wharf before leaving, again amazing review.

Oooh finally some info on my personal favourite of the Narrow Gauge Fleet’s models

It’s ya boi, Dunkin Duncan, good to see him getting his own video.

Great video looking at the history of Duncan’s tv model and in the Railway books my favorite lines are “ I’m a plain speaking engine I speak as I please” and “Keep your old station I’m staying here and “No polish means no passengers” in my favorite episode passengers and polish from season four with my favorite narrator the late Michel Angelis thanks for sharing this video on the one and only rock’n roll engine Duncan👍❤️🚂

I remember that Season 6 episode of Thomas and friends James and the red balloon (2003) in Christmas 2012.

Ah yes one of favorite characters the legend Dunking Duncan BABYYYYYY

Duncan - the longest-serving delegation leader engine at the Talyllyn Railway. He succeeded Peter Sam as delegation leader in 2000 and served for a good fifteen years up till 2015, during which time the events were known as "Duncan Days".

man that intro also I like rws duncan

I wish I had more of the narrow gauge engines episodes from season 4 since iirc i only have bull dog on vhs thats it and i really like the narrow gauge especially in season 4 as it was focused on the little wngines

Duncan the frickin mood

About 10 years back, the intellectual property owners of TTTE threatened legal action against the Talyllyn for holding Dunccan Days without paying a fee... The Talyllyn wrote back asking for fees for TTTE using representations of all their engines and never heard another squeak about the matter!🙊

He's hardly seen at the blue mountain quarry, which is kinda sad, we haven't seen him since season 19 (2015) Duncan and the grumpy passenger, and nobody knows what happened to him.

Duncan trivia piece. Normally Duncan is a 0-4-0WT. But some official artwork in Japan show him as a 0-4-2WT. Imagine Duncan having his rock n' roll being fixed with trailing wheels, like Skarloey and Sir Handel did.

My favorite one yet!

I simply love Duncan keep your station I'm staying here

I played his theme when I delivered food to a class for severe handicaps on Fridays because I don't like Fridays. Along with flying kipper, express theme at times with it.

Can you please please please please do a collab with the unlucky tug

Duncan is my fav of the narrow gague engines Thats why i made my own "o gague" duncan model!

I think you should make a wooden railway video love your stuff keep making amazing videos and never stop

James: your late Duncan: I know

Awesome!

Duncan was always one of my favorite characters from Thomas and friends.

YESSSS DUNCAN IS MY FAVORITE ENGINE ON SODORRRR

FINALYYYYYYYYYYYYY

Best TTTE character, fight me

In terms of merchandise, Duncan is the most iconic Narrow Gauge engine along side Rusty as they added yellow and orange to the toy lines. And CGI Duncan has a fat cab.

my favorite character !

THE SMALL SCALE DUNCAN IS NOW OWNED BY TOMSPROPS!!

George Carlin's voice for Duncan is my personal favorite

You: Duncan is a fictional Scottish narrow gauge engine Douglas (talyllyn railway):EXCUSE ME?!

We should be happy Duncan was reintroduced into CGI because he would only be seen in season 18 to 20 and then him disappearing again for season 21, two BWBA seasons and planned to have a small role in The Great Little Railway Show in season 24.

First and love the vids man

Duncan: AHH IT’S THE GHOST TAKE ME BACK TAKE ME BACK and NOOoO IM ASLEEP

i find it so funny that your favorite standerd gauge chacater is my favorite and your favorite narrow gauge character is mine as well whats next? your gonna say that jock is your favorite small railway engine is it?

I am glad to say that Duncan’s Season 4 small scale model has been found by Twitter user ThomasTankMerch! 😄🚂

YESSS!!!!

Duncan is the engine that I enjoy the most because him and I share some of the same traits, snooty and a little bit of an ass

“No passengers means no polish!” “...no polish means no passengers...”

yeah duncan's my favourite character

Hey Trainboy, since you’ve talked about wanting to cover the narrow gauge engines a little more, and since you have some HOn30/009 gauge track, have you ever thought about buying and modeling with a Peco James or Jeanette kit? (Aka the very same kits that Awdry *himself* partially used to make some of his models of the Mid Sodor engines?)
