We've got the new Thomas and Friends wooden railway! We've been very excited about this,
so let's do a track build to celebrate! Did you want to get Knapford Station in there?
Okay. Okay, why not? I love Knapford Station. I remember when we got this for you.
You were really young. This is going to be part of Knapford yard. You want to make a big,
wow, really? Yeah. That's going to be huge. Okay, this is going to be a complicated track.
How about Vickerstown? You want us to dust off Vickerstown? The drawbridge? Yeah. You mean the
big one? Maybe the smaller one, because we have a lot of big things on the track. We do have a
lot of big things on the track. You want to have, like, just giant things and see what we can do?
Yeah. Okay. Well let's do that. Though maybe we could have both. Okay. Maybe pass me that. Oh,
you're a bad passer. You take after your dad. Okay, so I think that goes right here, what do you
think? I think it's too big. What? Do you think it's too big? You just wanna stay with that? Yeah.
All right, your decision. We got Vickerstown working though, Liam doing great things with the
sawmill, I think he's working on Vickerstown now, what do you think pal? Okay, so you're putting the
bridge there? Yeah, that's the Vickerstown bridge. Yeah we still have Knapford station over here and
Tidmouth sheds maybe I'll start building between these two all right coming off of tidmouth i think
this will fit perfectly and it does so that's part of knapford station going into vickers town i
think that's going to be very easy to build liam's got the bridge going up and over and you've got a
big tunnel right there that looks scary we're connected from knapford to tidmouth or not for
to timothy i should say but we still have to go between vickerstown that's a very short stretch
i'm not sure that all the connectors line up we'll have to see what we can do what are you up to son
building yes you're going to build it up taller or just going to leave it at this level
okay good man well dad's made a bit of a mess between knapford and vickerstown i'm not sure
how it's working but liam is doing great with the bridges my goodness look at this he's coming down
and around and up here again you're doing great pal he's as busy as it be this guy
i don't know was the last time we put three of these bridges together liam is just building up
a storm though he's gonna go right over tidmouth if he keeps this up in the meantime we've got an
alfred the vickerstown figured out well almost i gotta come off of that connection and then we
have all of this over here in Vickerstown we've got a lot of building to do oh and the tunnel we
have a curve coming from liam's four way to going into vickerstown i was gonna put an extension over
there but i don't think that'll clear trains will just get watched underneath so we'll have
to rethink that but you've got this bump here kind of laying off that's going to be a terrible
accident okay i think if we put that right in there and we will connect from the four-way
coming into knapford so we have to rebuild vickerstown now we'll come out of the bridge
will we be able to clear this do you think we'll be able to clear this one oh yeah look at that
perfect probably back to vickerstown from there okay i left liam to build and he has built this
absolutely massive jump track that's going into i don't even know what he's going to cause confusion
and delay i mean i walked away for five minutes and this is what happens kids i think i don't even
know what's going to be doing with the round table there you're insane my friend we've got
a two to one coming off vickers town so that is vickerstown and knapford all done up liam i'm just
gonna let him build this because this is awesome okay let's see if thomas can do anything here
well keep working at it i still have some things coming off the round table and we have one exit
right here i don't think we're gonna be able to fit that or that in there we'll try though
okay you think you have it figured out let's see it okay that's working out pretty good
so far that's interesting bill but you got it oh look at that maybe that's the way to
go we've got two openings coming off the round table and one opening here i wonder what i can
do i think i have a few ideas okay you got a logger let's see this oh try that again
oh barely i don't know what that log is doing any favors
okay that might be a bit too much of a turn let's see doing me a favor okay let's try this
oh i see you've got the log propping it up okay let's try that come on
that might be too much of a incline all right i think we'll need to put a buffer here and a
buffer right there but right here maybe if we put a crane at a buffer we can unload trains backing
on there and put logs up there i have an idea well the crane will fit on there but i have it
going the wrong way liam is just adamant about getting this working he's actually just deep
diligent on this oh wow that was great try that again see if we can do it again
perfect you got it now don't mess with it i think that we are done we're gonna have
to leave that as an opening because we'll move the track if we add anything to there
we've got the crane figured out here that's gonna work but i might put something bigger
in here because we got this big space that we're not doing anything with i think maybe
we can put a connector from there and attach it onto here all right let's see what we can do
absolutely beautiful and extended out okay that's fitting in there now so that's way better
liam says he's done over here we have a few pieces that we have to pick up but i think we're almost
ready to get this set going yeah track is all clean and ready to go i guess it's time to take a
look at these new thomas and friend wooden engines here they are five friends at the solar steam
works liam which one do you want to take out first um gordon gordon yeah you got it gordon coming out
look at him he's huge yeah oh wow he's too big on the turntable he's too big for the turntable even
my goodness yeah that back wheel is too big okay here comes gordon where are you going with him
he does not fit on the turntable but you can still manage it somehow your magic guy yeah
gordon now coming up and over going through the sawmill here you want to know why gordon
doesn't have the happiest face why is that because he can't fit through here
oh he is bigger isn't he yeah it says wheels it's the wheels oh it's the wheels you're right
look at that yeah the wheels won't go in okay all right well let's go pass it this is yeah
probably 30 years difference between actually the sawmill in this corner well i'd say about 30. yeah
gordon coming through vickerstown bridge which way will he go we don't know
problems with mafford and he heads back to the turntable
and lands on there i wanted to see how these big wheels kind of stand out and they do fit in most
occasions i like that his tender actually has more wheels than percy does a lot of detail going on on
this gordon that is for certain i think this might be one of our favorites yeah do i try
and jump it off the bridge yeah let's try it oh gordon does a good job there is tender just kind
of sitting there yeah side by side old gordon and new gordon both wooden railway we have them
matched at the magnets so new gordon his tender is much bigger and his engine is bigger as well
looking at the tenders right away you can see the difference there's a lot more detail in the new
tender you can see the rivets on the side coal is still very pronounced and you've got six wheels on
the 10 as opposed to four the engine side by side old gordon he's got four wheels on the side and
new gordon has five also his wheel wells are actually carved out is just as opposed to just
painted on the dome is way bigger and look at that he is actually taller as well more pronounced on
his face you can see the lines on his face and the nose looks a lot better as well on newt
gordon in my opinion you want james yeah yeah james the other big tender engine that we have
just fits on the turntable does he yeah good big james now actually one of the bigger engines
coming through rickerstown is he going up on vickers town bridge yeah james coming around
this does not look good for james everything looks good for james he's a splendid red engine
oh yeah over the bump and down james's hill oh wow it's a big crash for james let's take
a look at james the wheels are more accurate on these new wooden railway toys so james doesn't
have as many wheels as gordon the center is also smaller than gordon's tenor so that's realistic
good shape of the cab i like these little wheel wells that they have carved out looks pretty happy
there james here's james the rear magnets line up so the tenders it looks like the new tender's
a little bit smaller than the old tender but look at the engine difference new james way
longer than old james looking at the tenders the new tenor's a little bit taller but a little bit
shorter and a lot more detailed you can see the little rivets on the paint job looking at the
engines you could tell that the new james has more wheels that's the first thing you notice
you see the glow from the firebox in the window you see the wheel wells here again the dome
is bigger and more pronounced the nose is a lot bigger on the new james as well he is a little bit
taller you can see when they're side by side and james's eyes are brighter in this one as well i
kind of look him like looking at him above because you can see his wheel wells are really pronounced
he looks really sharp who's next pal diesel i think you're going with thomas i want diesel run
diesel instead yeah okay let's see diesel here he is devious diesel black engine yeah here he comes
diesel coming down the line the rail is a little bit there oh yeah you're not the you're not the
best conductor i know that much let's take a look at him he's got a lot of detail from his paintwork
that is for certain they really did that up shifty eyes and that smile he is full of surprises
i like the top of him too he actually looks very devious very subtle underneath as well
with just the diesel just written on there very very very gently i guess is the word okay let's
get diesel going the other direction then all right oh that was fast yeah it
was crash oh wow
hey ramsay james oh you're adding to james and james's tender just goes for the back of the
machete yeah what was that was that uh fastest red engine on soda was that the episode ready
let's go and diesel doing a great job jumping new diesel next to old easel you can see new
diesel is a little bit longer his wheels are a little bit farther apart as well
overall like the wheel wells on the steamies this little piece right here this little electric box
is more pronounced yeah it's better carving too they've got this a little notched out on
the new diesel or sorry yeah the new diesel not the older one a little bit of plastic
around the face of the new diesel but you can see yeah it is definitely diesel they look
very similar nose isn't as long but why should it be all right you want percy now yeah
first he's interesting he's got his wheels really close together yeah well we just like
this is actually shorter than thomas look okay let's take a look so he is shorter than thomas
oh yeah he is definitely shorter than thomas all right now let's have go whichever way you want
this is a really awesome track and let's go really fast whoa that was super fast yeah it was boring
yeah you have to jump over there because the wheels won't fit on these old style things
how are they glad i just glide nicely do they yeah they do
he's like uh since he has four wheels he's like a skateboard
all right i want to see how percy jumps because he's so tiny
awesome he jumped okay remember he our old person was a past champion or shiny wheels
percy so the person i like how his wheels are closer together yeah he looks kind of worried
there yeah i don't know why that's just percy he's scared of something almost all the time
bright green and the red kind of offsets it it looks really good i kind of like this percy a lot
yeah this is interesting the new percy is shorter than the old person they're lined up at the back
but the older person is better a little bit longer sorry they've got the gold um dome
as opposed to the green dome on this one the coal is more textured there it's just paint we got the
back wheels lined up so you can see the new wheels are definitely a little bit closer together percy
looks a little bit more scared in this one and he's more friendly than that one i kind of like
the glow coming off his firebox that you can see it in the window there it's kind of reddish in the
new percy i really like that that's a nice little touch all right now it is your favorite thomas
jenkins oh at least thomas thomas the tank engine all right let's have him go this way you got it
tom's the tank engine i got all these bridges in the way see if he
can come up on the bridges again up over the vickerstown bridge as tom as the tank engine
coming ahead slowly and look at him yeah he's coming down the bridges now
here we go oh and thomas the tank engine does a great jump in lads here's the rivets in his
tanks now you can see them little studs there those are really good his face looks really
handsome as well interesting shape of the nose uh he's got that wheel well out front that's
interesting that's wheels stick out what do you think of the thomas william i like that little
door of his as well that's kind of cool i like how the coal on this has is uh it's got texture on it
looks like real cold this is a good thomas liam brought out both thomases let's look at them side
by side this thomas actually doesn't have any red buffers up front and the magnet looks kind of dull
the new thomas is slightly very slightly longer which one do you like i kind of like them both
i like the new one you like the new one this wheel well right there that's probably the
coolest part about the new thomas i think here's our first five of the new wooden railway liam do
you like these better than thomas wood yes do you like them better than our original thomas railway
i think i like them equal you think you like them equal i think we're going to do a few videos maybe
we might start doing stories again i don't know if we'll do any season 25 but we might use these ones
from now on but these five anyways we're gonna get the other the rest of the steam team here
who's your favorite engine out of these ones gordon gordon yeah gordon i like gordon i like
james and i like percy i really kind of like percy the way his wheels are are just close
together he looks really sharp and what was your favorite part of the track this big bridge
i like this big bridge as well you really built that up we should have
actually played with this more we got into kind of jumping with the new engines
