"You too Gordon. I need another engine converted to CGI where he won't need maintenance." "CGI!?" Huffed Gordon. He could not believe what he had heard.
Gordon is my favorite because he's a pompous know it all but great guy underneath. and in my opinion along with Henry is the Thomas character with the most character development.

Ironic how I'm currently making a remake of Thomas and Gordon and this pops up in my subscriptionss
Fun fact, Gordon is the protagonist in the books, because he's the only one that's character arc coming to a beautiful close in the last book written by Christopher awdry; Thomas and his friends, where Gordon gets replaced by a HST set, and humbly accepts it.
Listen man, you really deserve more exposure for the work you’re doing, all of your videos are top notch. Keep up the great work
I love how you use an engine's respective whistle for bleeping.

Big blue daddy Gordon
Gordon admittedly was my fovrite of the cast the"Largest and Proudests" of al lthe engines . Now even more so as an adult I look back in see him as the long time veteran of the job. Not antagonistic by choice but simply wishing the other engines took the job as seriously as he did, and refusing to take guff from that prankster Thomas. WE'RE ON A SCHEDULE PEOPLE
I love these history of the engines videos
will sing a song for Gordon. hes big, hes fast, hes proud. his paint is blue so strong and true and his whistle really loud. the fastest train on sodor, you can't forget his name. so when we sing for Gordon well will sing it once again.
Nice! Gordon's original model seems to have always had that chip on the inner part of his cylinder.
I just have to say I love all of your content and drop everything I'm doing when I see that you've uploaded.

Oh! Please do the true story of Toby's Tightrope.
Gordon's regular Perspex model, based on the Sodor Island Forum interview with show modelmaker Chris Noulton, was actually a brand new casting with adjustments in the pattern outline from the pilot model, which was kept after the pilot through production of Season 2 as a spare. The modified Perspex model description on the Thomas wiki only counts Thomas, where the body from his pilot model simply had final details added and was fitted to a modified Marklin chassis. Samuel F.
This premiered on my birthday, what a treat!
Gordon is a magnificent engine! Recently I’ve purchased a project Hornby Gordon and I hope I’m able to fix him up and soon let him run on my rails! It’ll be a fun project and just wanted to let other people know about it! :)
Commenting this to say, I was here during premiere
Congrats on 18k subs my man
Grand Discussion! Looking forward to James!
Ya know....the preview for the new series dropped today and I was.....hollow. And then I saw your video in my recommends and returned to that place of interest of Thomas because of how much details Awdry and the original team put into crafting these engines and characters so they could be as detailed and close to the real thing as possible. Knowing about animation, I know that most of the choices done in the new show were to make things easier to animate and reduce time but then i remembered how the CG crew made certain to but in EVERY FREAKING DETAIL of the real engines into that show to not just show how good they were at their craft but to pay respect to the original books and inspiration. I say this because there are fans who are younger than me and people working at Mattel who have not just RESEARCHED the Thomas SERIES but every engine they're based off on to the point I am legit impressed at you guys and I would rather watch more docs from fans than what Mattel is going to give us. Plus they got read of James in the show so FCUK OFF WITH THAT REBOOT.
Mattel is the same as this quote after what he’s done to Thomas and Friends: *”2 Boys were on James’s Footplate fiddling with the controls!”* Mattel: *”PHEW!”*
I swear TrainBoy is a Thomas the Tank Engine version of Potential History with the way he narrates and edits his videos and I fucking love it.
great video! i love these deep dives into the models i grew up watching. Now, That Aside, I cant even lie. i laughed harder at your shot at mattel (rightfully so might i add.) so Yeah, Im with you on that, as im sure a lot of others are as well.
I love your vids and I hope you do more 👍
I can feel the eyes from Unlucky Tug on this video right now.
So it should take 55 episodes to get to my favourite character (stepney)
i remember a bristol train show that i saw recently and we’ll one of the gordon’s were on display with a replica face
I am so happy you care about what they did with Edward and Henry!
Awesome dude that’s amazing
Awesome video man you should be proud
I can’t wait!
excellent train boy
Every character is a protagonist in their own right. Don't ask me why though. Fun Fact: Gordons' Streamlined Version was based on the PRR (Pennsylvania Railroad) streamlined K4.

Gordon’s plastic model was found and was put on display at the Clear Water Features Halloween Event at Midland railway.
Another great video, well done! I was wondering if you could make a video talking about the cancelled 2012 Thomas movie “the adventures of Thomas”
My favorite character!
Wasn't the Flying Scotsman in the pre animation series? I remember a big deal about two tenders?
That was great!!!
Gordon was always my favourite as a kid
Did you consider adding the big live tour models into this mini-series when you first thought of it, or did you feel that they were so minor (being used in one production only) that it wasn’t worth the time?

Gordon and James were my two favourites growing up as a Kid. Once the show switched to CGI, I lost interest. I tried giving the show another chance a couple years back and I could not handle it. The interior of the express coaches are completely wrong (based on the episodes of old when we saw modelled interiors of the coaches, they should have corridors and not rows of seats like a bus)! I even tried watching some of the specials, including The Great Race and King of the Rails. I still don’t like CGI Thomas & Friends and based on what you mentioned for the next season of Thomas and Friends, it makes me sad that the next generation won’t know the real Thomas and Friends series and appreciate the models we grew up with. Bottom line, I love your videos and I cannot wait until you cover the James model. Keep up the good work!
Will emily be on your list since she's considered a main character but doesn't have a number?
One of Gordon's faces was also used for Boulder in Rusty and the boulder

I always thought Gordon had the best faces in the model series.
Any chance you could do a video on all the special features of the original models, like the eyes and smoke systems and how they all work? I'd be very interested in seeing the way they did all of that.
Very nice
Yeah Gordon is my favourite
They done did my boy Thomas so bad in the Season 25 trailer It was leaked, yea-
What’s the background music called
2:25 R.I.P CHILDHOOD
Nooooooo I missed the stream
News flash, Gordon’s Perspex model IS ALIVE. It now joins Edward and James as the currently surviving Perspex models from 1984!
Even though were the topics now are about reviews, model railway, and model history. When are we going to get another Sodor WW2 Custom???
So is Gordon a modified Princess royal class locomotives 0-0 also did you know his trailing wheel is closer to his driving wheels in CGI where as in the model is the more under the cab

Great job for not mentioning his S25 render, it's awful!

He's right we all still blame Mattel for getting rid of Edward the wise and blue engine and Henry the strong and green engine!
Hey is there an update on the armored Gordon that we saw in you ww2 Thomas video
I honestly love Gordon and Edward
I used to have a Tomy Motorized Gordon he came with a Express coach
so was the pilot model the same one used in season 1?
Fun fact. If you look closely, you can see that Gordon’s pistons always appear to be broken/incomplete on the inside. This was because, when his pistons were intact, his front truck couldn’t rotate and he was unable to turn corners.
Some people Including myself think Gordon actually the LNER A0 the prototype.
Cool 😎
Nice
Hara is quaking and Drayton is shook.
It’s sad that most of the Perpecx models aren’t found yet.
the smoke for the pilot models was achieved with a 12V car cigarette lighter which ran off a contact on the rails. This DID work, however it made the bodies buckle out of shape due to the generated heat
