Referencing the alliance and then setting Gordon up to be trolled by the trucks was Top Tier Humor. The year has barely begun and I almost died laughing!

That was a superb story. It really did feel like a classic episode. Poor Mavis was stitched up for no reason. Thomas's plan was very clever. The last part with Gordon and the Troublesome Trucks really made me laugh XD XD XD .

What a brilliant story! The Season 5 aesthetic is captured perfectly as always, and it's nice to see Mavis as a main character and working somewhere other than the quarry. 'Arry (I assume it's him, given the lack of stubble and that he wasn't named in "Stepney Gets Lost" either) made a great antagonist, perfectly showing how creepy and sleazy he is. As for Thomas, he was great! Successfully giving 'Arry his comeuppance, offering Mavis a chance to take a passenger train, and of course marooning Gordon in the goods yard! XD

I love it when Arry just barges in next to Thomas, and is being a jerk, but instead, Thomas just smiles and tells him to have a good day. Really shows that amount of maturity Thomas gained through the years. Stellar work, and keep it up!👍

I couldn't take the story seriously cuz I was laughing at how pissed Gordon was. That ending takes it to a whole other level lol! Great work!

A whole episode dedicated to explaining away Mavis's random appearances in the background? Yes please 😊

Anybody get “James May yelling ‘CLARKSON!!!!’” vibes from Gordon? 😂😂😂😂

4:48 What a perfect End! Poor Gordon XD

A really enjoyable story. The bits with Gordon definitely got a chuckle out of me.

Adored everything here. Your shot compositions and atmosphere are incredibly immersive, and the writing was top-notch! Another banger!

Fantastic story! Looked and felt straight out of season 5. Well done! Can't wait for what you do next!

Comedic, brilliant and a masterpiece. Follows season 5's format perfectly. The Tiger Moth Project group should remake this for their next project.

4:57 THOMAS! Oh Gordon is so pissed off, LOL.

S5 with a bit of comedy. Now this is an episode. Especially the ending. Just golden

Great story, I especially laughed about Gordon having to deal with the trucks in the yard as they continue singing but somehow when arry and Bert were brought in at season 5 can become a bit odd to see who got the punishment for hiding the fuel

Even though it was obvious what had happened, it was nice to see Thomas stand up for mavis It’s a character pairing that’s fun to play around with

Terrific story to kick off the New Year! I love all the Season 5 elements such as 'Arry going unnamed and the closeups of Sir Topham Hatt. I like how Thomas continues the alliance he had with Gordon and the humorously disastrous result it caused at the end of the story! I wish we could 've seen Thomas having this level of cunningness in the show.

This was an absolute blast, man! This felt like a lost season 5 story from start to finish. Never would I expect a range of characters like Thomas, Mavis, 'Arry, and Gordon wrapped up snuggly in one package, but this delivered in every sense of the word. The music was excellent, the cinematography was sharp, and the editing was tight. Oh and that ending was absolutely hilarious. Definitely worth the wait and then some!

Usually, when I see a new video from a KZfaqr I love, I remember to watch it as soon as I have time, in my mind, and forget about it when I run whatever errands. But when I see one of your videos, I am literally left on my toes for the premiere to start - waking up at 6 am to see 'Gordon and the Big City' premiering just minutes after I had to leave on a camping trip was excruciating! This is no different - I have the right mind to wake up at 7 am just to watch this. You have always taken Trainz content one step further, and your attention to detail shows significantly throughout every shot you produce! Extremely hyped to see this!

Genuinely this is now up there in my top three favorite fan stories. This feels so natural and perfect for Season 5, especially when Thomas and Mavis were chatting at sunset! The lighting there was perfect. This also beautifully shows the major character growth for Thomas by Season 5. This is all around a wonderful story! Amazing work!

This was an absolutely incredible storyyy!! You captured the magic of the show so well, real season 5 vibes. The characters were on point too! Particularly liked Tomas and Gordan in this X3 Was nice to get a call back to their alliance, with Tomas being cheeky with it haha. Was also a really nice story for mavis too! Excellent work!

This is my kind of Thomas, spooky scrap yard and classic comedy

Glad to see you back, especially with such a great story! Although I have always loved your breathtaking faithfulness to the Season 1-5 aesthetic, it seems you took a few liberties here and there with this and I am all here for it! There's no doubt that this was very much fitting for Season 5 with the musical score, environments, characters, and even little details like never referring to Arry (Maybe Bert, I couldn't tell to be honest) by name. However, the little bits of comedy in particular felt straight out of something not too dissimilar from the golden years of the CGI era; the ending with Gordon and the trucks has me in stitches! I definitely cannot wait for what more is to come this year, and although it has been a while since your last video, the amount of care and attention you put into them makes the waits all the more worth it!

2:51 Gordon: “Thomas, Get Back Here!” 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Actual god tier way to return after over a year! It's so great to see new videos from you again!

Exquisitely done as always! The Series 5 aesthetic was fantastic and it was wonderful to have a story based on Mavis. It would explain all her little background cameos you can spot in that particular era. The story was brilliant and I love Mavis' back chat to whichever of the Iron Twins she was interacting with. So in keeping with her character too. Well done mate! :D

Ok, this one was funny and acceptably very good! I'm glad The Fat Controller caught Arry in the act (he shouldn't have hidden those wagons and framed Mavis in the first place) and made up for his mistake earlier. Arry couldn't be able to explain why he did such a thing. He ain't the type to, it seems. And that ending was truly funny, especially with that tune by the Trucks to the tune of 'Monday Morning' and 'Silly Old Gordon'! Both Gordon and Arry got what served them right!

Nice little Mavis episode you came up with! Love it! And poor Gordon at the end... 🤣 Have a Happy New Year, dude! 🥳

I like how this feels like a season 4 or 5 episode plus it also makes Mavis actually feel like a fat controller engine instead of just the quarry engine. Great story

0:30 not a mile second in after the intro and my god this is gorgeous S5 visuals. Mavis’s S5 theme here made me happy cry as well. You also are starting to sound like Micheal Angelis a little bit and that is definitely icing on the cake

Man, the sets and visuals are great ! I absolutely love the smoke effects. It looks realistic. This feels right at home with a season 5 episode, but added with it's own flavor to stand out :)

Great story. Thomas' cunningness here is nicely done. Feels like he's grown street smart and knows how to deal with bullies or big engines. The Gordon scene at the end was priceless.

OhohoHO, the king is *BACK,* baybeh! The Lord of replicating the Classic Series feel in Trainz! Seriously, there must be an insane time-consuming amount of stuff to set up just to recreate the feel to make us feel 100% at home. It's truly admirable to see somebody go through all the trouble to get pretty much every subtle detail nailed down to a T. Can't wait, mate!

4:47 that was hilarious, Can’t get that song out of my head😂

The legend himself has returned once again to replicate the classic series. No but seriously, amazing job at it! I really love your shots that you did for this and the fact that Thomas gave Gordon his work is just very funny to me! Keep up with it man.

That was literally one of the best S5-eque episodes I've ever seen. The writing, shots, everything was perfect. And it was hilarious to boot! XD

Years starting off with a bang. I adored this, man. Felt straight out of S5.

Brilliant story! It really does have a S5 feel, and having Thomas and Mavis as the main leads is a clever one. Also, the ending with Gordon is hilarious (and a great callback to their alliance).

Great work on this ‘like a Season 5’ type of episode. It definitely leans more toward humor than the darker sides of the season but it works wonderfully. I especially appreciate the Mitton-like angles and timings. Good choice on keeping Iron ‘Arry’s name anonymous still, fits the season and what little we knew of the character at the time.

I wanted to say that I loved your version of Crossed Lines, it fits perfectly well with James's perspective of diesels.

Oh my GOD, this is to notch work dude! normally i would say your stuff is on par with the classic series, But this is better than it ever was!

Inspired by TUGS pirate? 0:01 intro 1:18 ten cents conversion with zed stacks (nicer) 1:41 ten cents gets framed for no delivery 2:34 makeing a plan 3:35 pirate being found 3:58 ten cents found to not have stolen the barge 4:48 the best outro song ever

This should’ve been the first episode where ‘Arry got punished….. although Halloween is the episode where ‘Arry and Bert officially got punished

This really captures that season 5 charm, especially for Thomas’ personality. In season 5 Thomas is basically matured at this point, he’s still his old cheeky self at times but this shows his kindness at best! Wonderful work here!

Another great video from you mate! I especially loved the story and cinematography!

This is a fantastic video! The shots look so accurate and there’s something about it that’s so satisfying. Great job!

_I know a song that'll get on your nerves,_ _get on your nerves, get on your nerves;_ _I know a song that'll get on your nerves,_ _and this is how it goes!_

This one is Officially my favorite out of all the videos you have done so far. Fantastic writing 👍 Made laugh throughout out the whole thing. Love Mavis' comeback to the Diesel. Great way to start the year!! :D The whole video looks absolutely brilliant.

Fantastic visuals that make it look straight out of the main series, Mavis as a main character with spunk and a happy ending, and a nicely funny ending. You did an amazing job, subscribed.

This was bloody brilliant!!! I love everything about this story!! You did an amazing job filming this and the ending with Gordon was hysterical! Keep up the good work and I can't see what more you crank out! :D

Bro you're channel is seriously underrated. This was a fantastic story and the visuals are spot-on!

The Diesel: I would’ve gotten away with it if it weren’t for that meddling tank engine and that quarry diesel

It’s very nice to see you’re back after a while! I must say this story was pretty good and I especially loved the end of it with Gordon and the trucks!

This looks incredible. Looks exactly like the show. The season 5 vibes are just 👍👍 great job. I would like to adapt this story now!

This was so much fun. The ending made me properly laugh, and I love the rapid cuts between trucks in time with the singing, really good recreation of the editing style.

What a way to kick the New Year off. As per usual, stellar work.

Very fun and accurate character interactions… Mavis headlining a S5 episode is such a cool idea. One of my favourite characters. You’ve done her justice. Do a few more of these..! Everyone will appreciate it.

3:04 - Diesel: Well done! Fuel and another steamie.

The way how Thomas just realizes, "ohhhh sh*t, I'm screwed." When he remembers he left Gordon in the yard. Brilliant

This episode is simply fantastic, almost like it was pulled straight out of Season 5! The plot was straightforward, the portrayal of Mavis, Diesel/Arry and Thomas are all in character, and that last scene with Gordon, GENIUS!

Absolutely splendid! Beautifully filmed with such a clever story. I can't think of the last time a Thomas episodes made me laugh out loud at least 3-4 times. Great work all around! :)

This is so cool I love the plot . The character choices are great and just makes this such a good story . 10/10

4:48 I know a song that will get on your nerves, get on your nerves, get on your nerves. I know a song that will get on your nerves, and this is how it goes.

Man I cannot wait for this amazing video to appear! Welcome back Biggie! Hope this video will be gorgeous!

That was like the greatest thing ever! And incredibly photo realistic and true to the show I might add! XD keep up the good work. . .

First of, a brilliant story secondly the trainz quality in this video is at a level I've never seen before! Keep up the good work.

Woah what a way to start off the new year! This video definitely makes up for your long absence! I’m thankful you’re able to keep the spirit of S5 alive! Thomas’ plan helping out Mavis was quite clever as well as in character for him to be in since he’s gotten more mature around S5. And of course the ending with Gordon & the trucks had me in stitches! xD! Keep up the great work! 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽

What an Excellent story, I absolutely love every aspect that is put into this, especially the models visuals and the sets as I can’t tell how beautiful they are. Can’t wait to see what plans you have next

Ok! You've just earned a subscriber! That ending was hilarious asf. But you did well with this episode. I especially loved it because it felt like something out of Season 5, which is my favorite season.

Amazing work SSM! It gave me the S3 vibes here! Poor Mavis was too stitched badly, Thomas’ plan was very clever. Also I was laughing so much when I saw Gordon with the trucks 🤣

This actually made me laugh, great work on the dialogue! It fits the show perfectly, funny enough for an adult to chuckle at, but still fully appropriate for kids!

Yasssssssss!!! This is awesome! Can't wait to see what you've got up your sleeve this year!

This is just perfection a good mix of mature and cheeky thomas, with a good call back on an aspect not really seen much after its mentioned (the Thomas and Gordon alliance). Great work.

This was a fantastic story. I love the adaptation and the music included. I love the ending especially, with Gordon stuck in the yards, and just yells "THOMAS!". Kinda reminds me of a Swedish series made by Astrid Lindgren (The creator of Pippi Longstock). I know there is a Live Action version of one of her book series called (I'll try and translate it as good as i can, cuz it ain't in English yet.) Emil from Daleberg. He's kinda like Thomas, playing tricks and pranks and just getting his family cross, mostly his father. And when that happens, you can just hear the "EMIL!" from the background. Great job Suddery Station Master on this adaptation, and welcome back.

Wow, what an amazing story. It felt like I was watching an episode straight from Season 5. Great work mate, and Happy New Year! 🎉

Marvellous story, it's great to have you back since the end of 2021 for long time, this episode is part of Series 5 for taking place after Stepney Gets Lost and it's so fantastic to have Thomas and Mavis along with maybe 'Arry or Bert as main roles! Can't wait and very looking forward to your next story what will be happening! I love it and a very Happy New Year to you!

Perfect, perfect, I love how you never refer to ‘arry by name and how wholesome the story is

Fantastic stuff as always. So nice to see you back.

An excellent Season 5 episode within the 4:30 time frame. Great story with good characters and a good laugh at the end. Two big thumbs up!

This episode felt so right. Absolutely lovely

This felt like something out of season 5 and I love it, It explains Mavis working in the yards in the background, Thomas’ season 5 persona is shown, ETC, I really grey story and amazing use of characters here!

Oh this was great! I loved the story and how Mavis just smiles and says “I’m sure you’ve been called worse” and that part with Gordon at the end was funny “well I asked… ohhh dear”

Aww this is such a fantastic story. Thomas help stand up for Mavis here. Such a nice and nature thing for Thomas to do. Not only that, it's a dynamic that I like to see. Well done on this story. Definitely perfect for the new year.

Yes, welcome back! We missed you. We’re also excited for your new project.

Another banger of an episode, not that I would expect any different from this channel. Well done!

I laughed so hard at the ending, Glorious episode, can't wait for the next one!

Fantastic episode, everything is perfect, the story, the comedy, the sets , ect.. . 10000/10

I can’t wait! I’m excited to see who gets framed!

That ending was great

LOL! This video is both amazing and funny!😁 Good work, mate! This feels like a lost episode from S5!

It’s nice to see a Series 5 original story where Mavis is involved, Thomas being a mature and fantastic character, a funny banter with Thomas and Gordon, and Arry and Bert are neat. Overall a fantastic original story.

Wow! I wasn't expecting your next video to come out so soon after your last update post. What a nice surprise to start of the new year. :D

The shot at 3:26 is absolutely stunning. Great work on this!!

What a great Story!, I really do Enjoy this, Happy new Year to you, and Welcome back.👍

I absolutely love this! The first night scene looks like something out of the 5th series!

It took me a second to realize the intro was digitally recreated and not the real thing. Good job 👍

Now this was brilliant! I can already tell that 2023 is gonna be a good year for Thomas content.

Great continuity here! That ending was downright hilarious. By the way, I've been listening to your voice in the ones you've narrated and you sound a little bit like Michael Angelis.

Ha, love that bit at the end mate. Great way to start off the new year, best wishes from the midlands as always. 👍🏻

This was a delightful video! As always, keep up the delightful work!! 👍😊👍
