Pardon me, but I believe you're a bit mistaken. I'm pretty sure that Series 8-12 or 10 can't be scanned, because it was shot on video, it was filmed in that format. Film reel can be scanned, but video is video, based off what TheGermanofSodor and TheUnluckyTug has told us.

I lost interest in Thomas when I was in 1st grade because I felt I was getting too old for it, as I got more into Star Wars and Ninjago, but however, I was able to regain interest of it when I was in 2nd grade. Later, I started to slow down on Thomas when I was in 6th grade because of the awful reboot known as All Engines Go, so I got more into Sonic the Hedgehog, Rugrats, Fairly OddParents, and Jimmy Neutron, but I still was little bit interested interested in Thomas, but then, when I was in 7th grade, I started to fully lost interest of it, but then I regained interest of it again when I was in 8th Grade, and I still am a Thomas fan to this day.

Congrats on 600! I know some Thomas episodes and movies that did have morals such as in The Model Era and some CGI ones as well. Mainly in S19 to 24. Diesel and the ducklings: Being nice to your friends. Pouty James: No sulking. Love me tender: Care for your siblings. Twin Trouble: The consequences of what can happen when family members and friends fight with each other, breakup and refuse to make up. Respect for Gordon: Being in someone's POV. Bulldog: The responsibilities of parental figures. Thomas and the rumors: Never listen to rumors which is outright stated in the episode. The sad story of Henry: The most controversial episode that non Thomas fans claim to think has a terrible concept dont know that its to teach kids about the consequences of being selfish. The equivalent of sending a grounded kid to the shame corner or sent to his or her room. Journey beyond Sodor: The moral is outright stated by Thomas. Nobody has to be the favorite. Make someone happy: Putting someone first and making him or her happy can really make you feel better. Sodor's legend of the lost treasure: How to take accountability of your actions.

I never had problems with him in the movie, though I do wish the dynamite incident was mentioned in the dialogue after Thomas defeated Sailor John from what was said on the Wiki. I've always thought that SLOTLT was the boiling point for Sir Topham Hatt to finally think that he should one day put his foot down on Thomas' shenanigans, stupidity, eagerness or arrogance. Think of how this would be like in real life. You're the boss or manager of a huge store, restaurant, company or railway and you have one of your employees who's the youngest from the fleet that you can rely on. Although you and him have a good relationship, he is known for causing the most amount of mess-ups that have costed you millions of dollars over the decades that pass. You try countless times to make him learn sense and sometimes he does, sometimes he doesn't. Then many decades later your employee causes 2 big messes that delay the work of others and losing and damaging expensive property on the same day and he tries to blame the people who had witnessed what he did. Soon a day or 2 later let's say your employee is saving a new guy or girl from dying or getting hurt from hazardous and explosive material and you don't know what really happened since you're in a bad mood after the previous events. Would let that employee of yours slide?
