Don’t let this distract you from the fact that Step’s last words were “oH mY!”
Everyone needs a little Stepney in their life.

Literally tho
He and Oliver both have some things in common: They are saved from scrap and they’re the first standard gauge tank engines to be built from brass.
"This Engines Not For Scrappin!" And "Bluebells Forever!" -Stepney.
I love how chill the Chat was saying how they we're watching the video with whatever Stepney merch they had. I thought that was cute
Stepney is 100% a character that should be adored and I’m glad he is Stepney and BoCo are two characters that definitely deserve more attention and should’ve returned but Mattel is dumb so we could have nice things Lance you are so damn epic WHAT A LEGEND 👑
I love the Britt Allcroft sue story. Stepney existed for 110 years before the show even came into production, & 70 years before the first book. She'll outlive all of Thomas & Friends if the Bluebell treat her as always they have done - with care & respect - unlike the character's model.
“As you probably guessed, he was a custom build.” *WeeL nO sHit sHErlOck* (You’re work is amazing)
I actually used several of Stepney's model images from the measurements to the episode screenshots when I modeled the real-life Stepney for a college class! I got an A on the project too!

1:53 We tried everything we could to knock Stepney’s sugar addiction. He would always cause “accidents” that resulted in him covered in the stuff. “Fuddy-duddies!” he would say. “I can always quite tomorrow!” But he couldn’t! It wasn’t until years later that we discovered that Mattel’s abusive behavior towards Stepney was the catalyst for his addiction.

I believe I heard somewhere, and keep in mind I am not a lawyer, but I heard that it was the Britt Alcroft Company that sued the bluebell railway after Britt herself told the company legal team not to do it because, well the real life locomotive was built in something like 1872 and she knew how it would turn out. As far as funny lawsuits go, that’s up there with Greenpeace suing itself after Robert Hunter left.
Stepney fell to the same fate as Edward and Henry sadly
Stepney is definitely got too be my fav character
I love the intro in this video!! I especially love the part were Percy starts talking about Stepney to Thomas!! Poor old Stepney later on he vanished, and we never saw him again!!
I love the story of Duck and Stepney double heading the express, some of my favorite illustrations are in there!
Literally my favorite character ❤️❤️
I have a third theory; someone took the model and left it at the Bluebell Railway museum, possibly as a sort of karmic justice for the show retconning the real life engine and railway to be entirely from the fictional Sodor. Where it I at the museum, I dunno', but if anyone spotted it, I'd think they'd keep the secret as 'Stepney belongs on the Bluebell Railway; not Sodor'
Stepney is the reason why #55 is one of my favorite numbers.
He did appear in Tracy Ullman’s music video on Move Over Darling. I find it to be unexpectedly symbolic, imo, and I fell in love with the fact.
aw man my favourite railway series book as a kid was stepney the bluebell engine. I think my copy was from the seventies, which would make sense for my siblings' ages lol
1:04 love that illustration!
I have been waiting so long for this, thank you

Maybe the fans will create something of their own that looks a lot like the CGI series. We’ve seen BoCo, maybe Stepney next? *Then Proteus. G o d d a m m i t I N E E D P R O T E U S*
Hell yeah I’ve been so looking forward to this video! I was ready
Stepney is a lovable character. I love him because right his story and his railway
I've been waiting for this to exist and now is appear thank you trainboy
It would be cool to see the story of Flying Scotsman, even though only his tenders were seen in the model series, he was still quite popular in the CGI series.
You should do lady next or maybe Spencer

“Oh my!”. Stepney’s last words before going missing (This quote only exists in the US dub of Rosie’s Fun fair Special)
YESSS!!!! I’ve been waiting for a Stephen model history and I do find funny how Britt allcroft sued the bluebell railway but anyways great video
0:09 I was literally expected you were going to flick him into the water
I really like these intros of yours!
I like Stepney! Great video!
Stepney wasn’t taken, or stolen from drayton manor, he was saved
I love this well done! I have an odd request that am sure you haven't covered before but just out of interest can you do a video covering the "Horrid Lorrys" please.
Love to see a video or a series on the roadway characters
I love Stepney too. I have his Ertl and take n play models
Excellent stuff. Troublesome Trucks next please. Best wishes from The Isle of Anglesey in North Wales
I would love to see one of these on Skarloey! He is my favorite character after all.
Iron Twins/Splodge might be fun for a future vid :3
i still have my trackmaster amd take along stepney. im glad i have
Stepney unfortunately winded up in the same category as BoCo, becoming a forgotten character over time & should have been featured in more classic series tv episodes from seasons 5-7. Stepney has an interesting background story and Bachmann trains should produce an ho scale model replica of Stepney in the future.

I would love to see a history of Rheneas next please?!
3:45 If it were me, I would've had the model given to the Bluebell Railway and displayed there permanently. Imagine the actual prop used in the TV series just a few steps away from the real life Stepney he was based on.
If the Stepney model is ever found, it should be given to the Bluebell Railway
I have a Hornby terrier. absolutely amazing model
Yesssss!! 1 of my favorite steamers
I would love to see separate videos of all of the narrow gauge engines
Cool, I seen this 21 mins after this was premiered
Stepney's my favorite
Loving the Adult Swim styled bumpers my guy.
Another little tid bit. While doing a footplate experience at the Bluebell Railway, one of the lead volunteers told me that Mattel are trying to take stepney claiming it's rightfully theirs. History is repeating itself 😂
I found a still in package ERTL step eye in mint condition on EBay and love it
And just when you thought that was it, here´s some more of the real Stepeny´s story: kzread.info/dash/bejne/lnuh0tRuYrWYdrw.html
Fun fact Britt Allcroft was goin to sue the bluebell railway for apparently “stealing the engines basis and name from there show”
You should do the troublesome trucks next it would be interesting
Stepney's theme is the best
I hope that this model series makes it to Falcon/Sir Handel, I’ve gotta know why his body changes so much between season 4 and the hit era
Great video. Shame Stepney never returned.
Now Stepney has a fascinating and confusing history between the real world and the fantasy world of the island of sodor, mainly the original TV series. Of course I have seen some videos of the real life Stepney locomotive from the real Blue Bell Railway, and let me tell you the locomotive itself is fascinating. And also I have the book, The Railway Series book Stepney the Bluebell engine. In some ways I think they should rebooting Stepney himself, if the character gets another chance in CGI animation. And of course the stories should be based in the main like from The Railway Series book itself, and maybe with one more storyline edition loosely based on the episode Stepney gets lost. I'm glad that when they did the CGI Thomas series, they decided to have real life locomotives such as the flying Scotsman to cross over with Thomas and all of his friends in the island of sodor. And at that time I was hoping and waiting if Stepney can be part of the territory, and rebooted at the same time. With a rebooted introduction, if they were to make a another Thomas movie, based in the main of the Railway Series book Stepney the Blue Bell engine. And if the ending of the movie could have Stepney to get lost, and the two diesels Arry and Bert would almost scrap him. And of course Sir Topham Hatt would stop everything, so Stepney wouldn't get scrapped. And that we would see Sir Topham Hatt scold Arry and Bert for trying to scrap and almost kill Stepney. And I think it were to be nice if Thomas were to help Stepney to escort him out of sodor, all the way back to the real life Blue Bell Railway. If another CGI Thomas movie could have been made like that, the ending of the movie could have had a storyline loosely based on the episode Stepney gets lost from season 5. Even though Mattel now owns the rights to Thomas, and they're going to do the show in to the animation. Generally I believe the 2D show is going to be a disaster, and so if the producers return to CGI animation. Someday I hope there will be another Thomas and Friends movie, with a complete reboot and introduction of Stepney. And that the CGI Thomas & Friends movie can be called Stepney the Blue Bell engine, with the entire movie based in the main of the original storybook from The Railway Series written by the Rev W Awdry. And that the ending of the movie would be added a storyline, based rather loosely of the episode Stepney gets lost from the original Thomas series of season 5. I just hope that Stepney can return, but in CGI form not 2D animated form. Because if they rebooted Thomas and the other characters in CGI animation, with the adventures begin. And that the movie was based and loosely based on the first two Railway series books, The Three Railway Engines and Thomas the Tank Engine. Then I hope they can do it again, by rebooting the introduction of Stepney in CGI animation. and that they should make a whole movie out of it, based in the main of Stepney the Blue Bell engine from The Railway Series books. And with a storyline at the end of the movie based rather loosely from the episode Stepney gets lost from season 5 of the original Thomas series. I also hope to see Stepney to help Toby and Mavis shunt Freight cars at the quarry at the end of Thomas's Branch line, at some point in the middle of the movie instead of at the end before Stepney gets lost. And that Thomas should also help out with three of them at the quarry as well. I really hope something like this can happen someday, if they reboot and reintroduce Stepney

While maintaining his friendship with Rusty.
Stepney’s Season 12 whistle is what I would stick with. It’s the last time he used it, so I’m using it. The rest I’ll use for other characters(except Smudger’s whistle).
i had a tomy stepney but got broken, i'll be getting a new 1 soon stepney was gonna appear in series 8 but was cut (he had a series 8 model), i wished he appeared in series 18, and tgr
I lost my track master and taken place Stepneys to Can I had those along time to go to
Yo Trainboy I actually yesterday I saw Percy on the back of a truck going west not joking
Try Arthur's history next soon
I always thought Terrier sounds like a type of rodent. And to be honest. With how small Stepney is. I can see him as a small beaver like animal crawling along the tracks.

Please do the express coaches! 👍
please do the troublesome trucks and vans
I used to have a Tomy Motorized Stepney he came with a grey troublesome truck and 4 pieces of curved track
I don’t think it was Britt herself that tried to sue, it was likely a clueless attorney or misc lower worker from Guillane
How did Britt not know Stepney's basis? Didn't she oversee the model's development AND was friends with the creator of the Railway Series?
4:40 I still own both of those! :D
*hears Britt Allcroft tried to sue before realizing stepany was always a real engine * What? 😳
These videos are just gonna get sadder and sadder, as it becomes "We saw them in one season and then they just vanished, and that's it!"
You should do salty next
can you do the history of freddy the narrow guage engine?
Have we seen one about lady let?
You should do Annie and Clarabel
there was a cgi music video for "little engines"(season 20 or 21) where he was mentioned.
