This story is a sequel to Thomas and Friends: The Retold Adventures
Times are changing on the Island of Sodor. Modernisation is creeping in and the future beckons, but the engines and their friends feel they have nothing to fear from the outside world. But when Sir Toppham Hatt goes on holiday, leaving a rather eccentric woman in charge, a new threat comes to the island, one that threatens them all...
Written in honour of the 20th anniversary of Thomas and the Magic Railroad.

What are the odds though: It's actually raining for me right now as well! :D
It will span to the US.
On the 2-year anniversary of when I joined the fandom! Legend! Thank you.
Well now, isn't this interesting. And calling it now, Celestia is standing in for Mr. Conductor and Luna is standing on for Junior, and Discord is with Diesel 10.
So, correct me if I am wrong, but Sunset is taking the place of Lily?
Gordon: " Shake and rattle scared out of his mind" diesel 10 is back!! Dude you cut that out aww why?!
Oh wow. I found this under "popular."
Thank the maker this story is using the true script of this adaptation

What a strange coincidence.
10190233
Eh?
10190259
Hey, no problem.
10190264
I see you've read Gold Dust and Harmony.
10190392
Yes.
10190771
Please read the prequel for some context on that. I adapted all 105 of Awdry's stories as well.
10190456
Because, at this point, nobody has any clue who Diesel 10 is.
10190469
Sweet!
10190535
Well, I didn't want to use the mutilated script that made it to the big screen.
10190812
of course Not.
I may have watched that version several times, but I want that original script version so badly!
10190884
You can download the original from Restore the Magic's website.
10190919
The Script or the movie?
Can't wait to see how the rest of this turns out.
10190920
Script. Icon is yet to release the negatives despite confirming they exist.
10190923
I think you'll like where this is going.
10190945
That's cool
10190946 As long as it doesn't have annoying surfer conductors and Mara Wilson, I think I will
10190957
I'm still annoyed the film hasn't been released in full.
10190964
It won't. Junior was irritating as heck, and Mara Wilson couldn't act.
10190991 You want my real opinion on the movie, go what Nostalgia Critic. It's like I wrote that episode considering how much I agree with it.
10190997
I know that review well. It's a real shame too, as we're seeing the spectre of a far better film that was butchered by boardroom meddling.
10191002 Well I look forward to seeing how the real story turns out. Hopefully it'll have more Thomas in it.
10191004
This will be very detailed, and very long too.
10191164
Thanks. Are you familiar with the film it's based on?
10191191
Well then, you'll be discovering the story for the first time.
10191198
And as it should have been.
10190806
Funny enough, I'm actually not sure. Just seems logical.
10190808
AWESOME my favorite Character has a (Somewhat) important role in the story
10191251
I see.
10191287
Glad to hear that.
10190997
I'm okay with most of the NC's review, but some of the jokes, it felt like my childhood was dying. And about his comments on the mouths not moving, I don't really want the engine looking like ventriloquist dummies.
10191344
It was pretty clear he wasn't familiar with the show. Besides, mapping CGI faces onto models wasn't possible at the time the film was made.
10191344 You clearly haven't seen the more recent episodes.
10191346
And 90s/ early 20s CGI, good grief that been horrifying.
Anyway, I'm hesitant about this story. Even with the original draft elements, trying to link the show with Shining Time Station just left the story complicated, and focused too much on the Burnett Stone subplot, heck the PT Boomer stuff would have meant more with spent on Stone than Thomas and Friends.
10191351
Our we talking about the CGI Thomas series or the Nostalgia Critic?
10191363 What?
10191361
I've changed Shining Time to Nottingham, and simplified those elements.
10191373
Which episode of which series we you referring to? Because I haven't watch either for sometime, I don't care to.
10191381
Season 13 onwards. My advice? Skip to Season 17, watch to 21, then ignore S22 onwards.
10191381 That's what I mean. The most recent season, which has the lips move.

You know the Magic Railroad has a connection to the US which is where Lady was hidden.
