"The models were never featured prominently" Clearly someone forgot about the gem that is "Lady Hatt's birthday party".

I swear that is one of many episodes i use as an introduction to new people in the fandom. It is so funny. Just a never ending barrage of problems for Sir Topham Hatt and the longer it goes on the more hilarious it gets.

@@mattevans4377 I only mentioned it as I feel that almost no one talks about it. I love Lady Hatt's Birthday Party, one of my favorites, but I feel that the other Topham centric episode deserves some love too.
I was Lowkey expecting a “you have caused confusion and delay” mixed in with the regular chorus of whistles at the end of the video

There are so many human characters left out of the show. Sir Handel Browne and his son Sir Handel The Second, Mr Mack, Mr Peter Sam and his son Mr Roger Sam, and even Sir Topham's great-grandson Sir Richard Topham Hatt.
Topham IS going to be in the reboot actually, but he won't be a controller, he'll be a comedian.

Sir Topham Hatt is my favorite character. He has a cool story in the railway series. He is always funny in cgi and has iconic quotes.
Glad you're back. You can do 'Arry and Bert and their models' history next.
Instead of "Hand Sculpted" in Maya I just say mouse sculpted. Loved this video, it's nice to have a series that focuses on all of the engines models and in such great detail too. Love your videos very much and keep up the fantastic work.
Who can imagine all the RWS books or the TVS versions of TTTE without the engines having faces?

He's always been my favorite human character. I remember getting nervous when he gave someone a stern talking to for messing up and causing confusion and delay. But I would be happy when someone did a good job and he called them really useful.
STH is actually in the reboot, he's said to be the only human that interacts with the engines.
He's big, he's back Goes by the name of Sir Topham Hatt
You had EVERY chance to make it like a 1960s American-Italian Mob Boss documentary, 'The Fat Controller, The man, the legend, the model.' All you had to do was add in the Godfather music and the opening was sorted.

I didn't know the history of the people models, let alone Sit Topham Hatt, thanks for making this TrainBoy.
This was a great history on Sir Topham Hatt models and history!! I certainly didn't know that in the Railway series there was a whole generation of different types of Sir Topham Hatt!! I always thought Sir Topham Hatt is always the same guy!!

Yeah, Charles is never seen, and Stephen remains a child through the entire series.
are you kidding me I missed it why didn't it show up on my recomened list! this isn't fair! 😡 Great video by the way😃👍
I still don't get why people see him as a cruel dictator, he's just a man trying to run a railway with Troublsome engines...
1:06 Because nothing says 'father figure' then bricking engines up in tunnels!
Michael Angelis's voice for the Fat Controller was the best in my opinion.
Another awesome history video!
If they ever go back to doing a 3D Thomas series, they should be like the LEGO movie, where it looks like actual models, but done in CGI. Characters like Sir Topham Hatt would have a limited number of poses, to add to the charm.
I think it’s a good move from the TV Series to make just one character named Sir Topham Hatt rather than a line of ancestry.
Sir Topham Hatt is like a god to the engines

He is gonna be in the reboot, just as a background character I think
Has anyone ever figured out why he stands on top of so many boxes and barrels in the television series to talk to the engines?? The most dangerous setup IMO was “The Sad Story of Henry” as they are building the wall in the tunnel!

One positive thing about the reboot. At least they made Thomas railway series accurate from after Thomas comes to breakfast, hence flat running board
This was an amazing video. I completely agree with your opinions.
New idea. Train boy and the unlucky tug video collaboration
Interesting!
The last part was a funny ending. Also I started following you on instagram.
Great video
Im not the only one who thinks the small scale models head looked squished right
he is in the reboot, for comic relief
The former KZreadr CombineHarvester01 apparently owns a closeup model of Sir Topham Hatt, although I'm not sure on all the details. It's probably been a good 8-10 years since he got it and his whereabouts are very much unknown to me.
As you can see, I'm a very busy man.
Did you know in TATMR Sir Topham Hatt was originally gonna have a live action appearance but it didn’t happen because they couldn’t find an actor of the right size
the fact stephen is a kid throughout the tv series implies *BERTRAM IS A IMMORTAL GOD*
I really need to re-read the books. I have 3 copies of the complete collection (books 1-26, all the Rev. W Awdry's books), plus hardback copies of books 1-6 in a box plus 7, 11, 27, and 30, plus a few random copies like a 12th edition hardback copy of book 2 from 1953, a 1994 book club edition of book 2, and several different novelisations of the tv show. I also need to re-watch the tv show, since I haven't seen more than half way through series 9.
Trainboy, why does the thumbnail topham look like he's on some sort of register? Luv u x 😂
I would love an episode with humans playing a major role.
"The close-up model was made from lead." Me: "WHAT"
I have a book in which Sir Topham Hatt has a flashback to when he was a little boy, and him and his father are traveling with a horse and cart, but it breaks. Stepney comes along, and Topham Hatt and his father have to ride on the coal car Stepney is pulling. They never mention the father’s name though. (Tbh, I’m not even sure this book is canon, cuz I doubt that Stepney could’ve been on Sodor before season 1takes place, let alone decades before.). The book is called Thomas-saurus Rex (geddit?)
I really hope you roast the reboot when It starts
Hector,Bertie the break down crane or the Chinese dragon should be next.
Get your premiere tickets here my dudes
i don't know whether you forgot about this, but a modified CGI model of Sir Topham Hatt all pumped up on Juice was made for a Studio Hansa film called "The Thomas and Friends Institute of Innovation". Apparently, the film was made to advertise the Thomas and Friends IP to studios other than HIT Entertainment. The lab technicians apparently took issue with him being a "Fat Controller" and made him get in shape...The SWOLE Controller?!? lol
@5:15 to the end. Best truth telling i ever heard in my life.

The craziest people are the drivers and firemen since they somehow are safe after a crash
We know he has grandchildren, but my question is where are his kids? Also, that makes his mother a great-grandmother.
Nice!

One day he was having breakfast. And Thomas decided to call!
Sir Charles Topham Hatt II be like: "Ladies and Gentlemen! My name! Is Paul! Heyman!"
You should do Rosie next
I wonder who the next history video will be on
The Fat Controllers name does not appear in the books until Henry the Green Engine in the story Percy and the trousers where in the picture of Percy sneaking into the station we can see on one of the trunks on the porters trolley "Sir Topham Hat"
You have to do a narrow gauge engine
it would be interesting if the 3 controllers were in the TV show but i see why they didn't do it
Is there any measurement photos of the g1 sth? I’m trying to make my own
Cool 😎
UPDATE: Sir Topham Hatt is in All Engines Go now
Sir Topham Hatt is in AEG
1:41 Is it me or does it look like he a really long finger :P What is seen can never be unseen!
Why does toms props have a Toby and we’re did he got it
Where do you find these auctions?
Funny story I saw the unused devil costume in Tatam parody Halloween special
YES
Excuse me what? They are leaving out one of the most important humans in the franchise? The fuck? I like the model you have for your tail.
What’s the figure you have called
I understand why they didn't use the devil costume model; Sir Topham Hatt is already scary enough without it. Also, SATAN.
Just about something else when are you going to get a Bachmann or hornby Gordon
Please do one for Lady!

Sir Topham hat is in the reboot
What episode is 2:20 from? Also, even in the good seasons of the CGI era, I never cared for how Topham and the other humans looked/moved in CGI, They basically just redid the model figures in CGI. I’d personally go for a more Pixar-esqu design.
Am I the only one who thought his CGI model looked like a sims character?
Can you make a CBR3 video?

Did Mattel actually say that offically? the last I heard he was definitely going to appear in season 25. it would'nt be Thomas and friends with out the head of the NWR
