Tales from the Scrap Siding: Arry Learns The Truth 

My god this was unsettling. I remember the story where James encountered a line of 08 shunters. They were tired and weary, no longer able to fight their fate. This was worse. Hearing the voices still filled with hope. A desperate, paper thin hope, but hope nonetheless. Arry’s voice acting was superb, it really drew me into the setting, made it feel real! Thank you for such a delightfully scary story

This would actually make a good sequel to 'A Dark Night for Bert'. Look forward to the next story.

That bit with Arry being crowded by the diesels made me realise how *lucky* Oliver, Isabel and Toad in their own situation. Douglas found the trio just by chance, and, having been a fugitive himself, didn't think twice about the situation. Not to mention that another engine, coach and brake van were needed on Sodor. It'd be very unlikely, almost impossible, for Sir Topham Hatt to save so many engines at once as Arry had found. It's a harsh reality of being an engine. Well done on this story.

Of all the engines to learn the harsh truth about scrap, I think Arry's experience was the most scarring. Bert learnt it from one engine, James learnt it from a number of diesels that accepted their fate, but Arry had to learn it from a group of diesels that grovelled at him and fought each other for sanctuary and when he left, the last thing they called was a traitor. Nice work, of all the scrapping horror stories, this was the best. Well done, cheers and keep up the cracking work.

Now that is quite a bone-chilling, yet sinister story! It reminded me of The Truth About Scrap, Diesel's Demons and Bert's Redemption, only this time 'Arry learns the harsh truth about scrap and how it's not just steam engines but also diesels, even from before he used to be blinded when he and his kind were first built yet still not knowing what would come next. Wonder how D10 would also react about his kind being scrapped as well (aside from that one episode in Sodor the Magic Within). Also, that withdrawn diesel's face flickering from alive to parish does creep me out a bit.

This was amazing, and others making comparisons to a dark night for bert and bert's redemption. I consider this the part 3 of a story. 1 is Bert's talk or hallucination with the scrap engine, then his shock at scrapping a diesel and his understanding of the steam engines, then to Arry seeing how his own kind are as they await the cutters torch, sort of like a large scale journey for the twins as the bubble of their minds pops. I also think it adds because Arry may have known about big diesels being scrapped, but always thought that the reliable shunters like him and diesel would always be necessary because of how many their were. Sadly, those numbers just show how expendable they are. It's one thing to see a rusted and dead engine going to be destroyed, it's another to see them alive and lined up, waiting as death approaches them. Great work.

Those end credits creeped me the hell out. Well done on a good story.

*Year, 1967* Steam Engine: **Coughs and wheezes as they’re shunted into the smelters shed** Your class of engine might be the greatest… but for how long?” Diesel Shunter: “why forever you rusted claptrap! Railways have just begun pumping us out, course they know what they’re doing, else-wise they wouldn’t have told us we were better than you kettles ever could be!” **Cackles and oils away** *Year, 2010* Same Diesel Shunter: **Coughs and splutters to a stop, and after a few days is shunted into a siding by an electric locomotive** Electric Shunter: “Move it you rustbucket! Not even 30 seconds and you’ve already gotten my buffers dirty!” **Their engine hummed as they let the Diesel glide on the rails and bump hard into a old set of buffers** Diesel Shunter: **Winged at the bump as they were shunted next to a already rusted husk of their sibling** “Hey, can’t a old engine rest in piec-“ **Flashback as a steam engine asked the same thing** “… just leave…” Electric Engine: “Fine by me. Senile old fool” **Glides away to get back to their new job, which was to take the Diesel’s**

Ooooh! Now that was spooky! I guess Arry and Bert won’t be teasing the engines about scrap anymore. Well done!

you’ve outdone yourself with this one, excited to see the next one !!

Something I've noticed is that this in some ways contrasts Awdry's story where Douglas saves Oliver. In that one, Douglas (who was also a survivor of the Great Scrapping) saves Oliver from scrap. By contrast, 'Arry, when he faces the truth chooses to run away when confronted with his own mortality.

It's quite satisfying to see them both finally realised that someday they will be scrapped and replaced by much more modern and reliable diesel. ( And electric engines)

I wanna point out that a few class O8 shunters are still in service but it’s only in industrial areas but it shows they really were a head of there times. A few others were also preserved.

While quite similar to NarrowGauge's The Truth About Scrap, I still like how is a sequel to The Spectre's Warning!! The animation at the climax of the story when the lights flicker is best animation I've seen for a Thomas Horror Story!! Wonderful job! And what you did when the credits rolled is absolutely chilling!!

I love it I love how it take place after Bert event with a ghost steam engine I love the hint to the truth of scrap and I love the cry’s of the diesels at the ends

Random people: there just machines they don't have feelings Me: shows them this vid

i never expected that arry learned about it after a few months when bert encountered, but at least they have changed a bit after learning both truths about scrap. anyway, nice job on making the audio story.

Looks like Arry & Bert somewhat redeemed themselves; in dark way. They both finally learned that was not just steam engines being scrapped, but diesels as well.

Whoa. Now this story chilled me to the bone. I like it!

I like how there is a blink and you'll miss shot where the faces of the diesels are replaced by a dark hole with blood around it and blood dripping off the claw looming over them.

The fact that you can see the scrapped diesels briefly have no face as the lights flicker truly sets the scene that these diesel shunters are truly doomed awaiting fate

The face of that diesel is eerily similar to the one of that unfortunate steam engine in the first image of "Bluebells of England".

This really is a brilliant story! Great work!

I think Arry got a good dose of reality that he is not modern anymore but instead out of date.

This is amazing. Glad to see a almost direct sequel to A Dark Night For Bert.

@22Tesla Amazing. This is what I was looking for in one of these scrap stories. The real raw emotion behind an engine's unavoidable death. When I think of engines getting scrapped I don't think of them just quietly accepting their fate. I imagine many of them would be begging and pleading the way these diesels did. I mean, if you were for certain to die and you somehow found a way to cheat death, wouldn't you beg in the same way? It's the human aspect of these living locos that draws us to the Thomas franchise in the first place - they're just like us. This side of the ends of engines is never explored because it's extremely uncomfortable, much like the truth in real life it's easier to tell a softer lie than face reality. Most of these engines probably met their end the same way people who are murdered do: crying, screaming, and begging for a way out. Although it's extremely difficult to portray something like this, I thank you for having the guts to do it. This really drives home the finality of scrapping and the sorrow and desperation behind the end of each engine. Well done Tesla. You are a true storyteller.

The end of that gave me goosebumps and tears in my eyes! It was awful but so right. Thank you for that.

Awesome Work! I loved that you made a sequel to A dark night for Bert

It's kinda rare to hear a diesel wishing to be a steam engine bc they describe them as "timeless" and "precious"

I like how you made this different to how it was with James.

You could continue the story in the Arry with Boco & Edward talking about what he saw that night!^^

This is amazing. It's even more dark than I thought it would be. Looking forward to more.

I saw the hollowness in 1 of those diesels, which reminds me of the hotr video "the truth about scrap".

This is a great start to the four stories man. This really does feel like a continuation from the Buried Trucks Story a Dark night for bert. But I got to ask is there a script to the story as I would love to adopt it one day.

Great story. It's almost gut-wrenching to hear the pleading sobs of the old Diesels begging 'Arry to take them with him. I don't know what I'd do if it had been me. It's always sad when the life of a train comes to an end.

I really like how Arry and Bert learn that they’re going be scraped along with the steam engines.

That was pretty creepy. An excellent Halloween story in my book

This gives me “The Truth About Scrap” vibes

This is fantastic! I loved it!

This is an Amazing unofficial sequel to A Dark Night for Bert

Amazing job with the video it really didn't give me the chills it's nice to see another story like this I do feel sorry for the iron Twins and all the other diesels on Sodor they probably went through as much pain and suffering to find out that they're siblings and friends from the other railway are dead/scrapped

Oh my god, it made me cry hearing such things like this

I think the first diesel would be a Class 66 and the second a Class 60.

I really like your series Tales from the Scrap Siding what brings me to the question: will you make more of Tales from the Scrap Sidings next year ?

Very well written and narrated, thoroughly enjoyed!

This is great story! I hope for a Trainz version!

Wow this amazing story and unsettling at the same time 😱

8:56 idk if anyone saw this or this was intended but the diesel near the left looks like it says “Crap” instead of scrap idk if I’m just reading wrong

Well I don't have sympathy for those diesels they brought their fates upon themselves ever since they made the steam engines suffer so this is pure karma

Now i dunno why vut i want to hear the cutters rorch, ending the class 08 shunters. A sad fate, but one needed to be informed about.

Good job! Although I'm a Christian you've earnt yourself another subscriber. This felt like The Truth About Scrap, but better. James has gotten humiliated too regularly and now it's Arry's turn to get some much needed karma.

I'd say the first diesel wasn't rude to 'Arry out of futurist prejudice, but because of electrification happening, making him have grief and taking it out on another engine, said engine happening to be 'Arry. After all, the news wouldn't talk about a bunch of new kinds of diesels, that wouldn't be special enough, it would talk about a new locomotive power type, as in electric, taking charge in Britain.

Okay, all those who were profoundly creeped out by the audio of the credits, say aye.

Turn it into a Trainz version :O

very good story

Very beautiful my dude

This has been done with James and d 10 and now arry!?! It seems like Sodor is learning about 1984 Britain

Man I really pity those poor souls of diesels! 😢 😭 😔 I really wish that Arry took the time to save them all, not just for Sodor but for other railway museums too. I know that some people really dig the steam engines existence and their fate, but I really dig the diesels even more. People hate on the diesels for killing the steam engines, but it wasn’t their fault the staff of the other railway brainwashed them into tormenting the steamers. I know that so diesels shouldn’t have badmouthed the steam engines or put them down, but they were doing what they thought was the right thing. Plus when the face the scrapper itself, they believe that nobody wants to preserve diesels onto choosing to save steam engines as they are the “kings of the railways”, If I had the chance, I’d save every diesel I canb

I wonder if the bit with Henry was foreshadowing for Tunnel Vision.

I feel so bad for the diesels… :(

Excellent work again

If you do this next year and need more va I would love to give it a go, I would say I do a decent impression of skarloey

The ending is creep me out

I love this episode that is why I ask GuardianSoulMLP to do it.

I always like it when Karma comes aknocking..

Can we get a upload of this because I would love to see this at a model episode

oh god they was ghost

Chilling

What was said on that mentioned newspaper anyway?

Good Job With The Video.

Now that was creepy

The diesels and the claw bleed when the lights flicker. Its creepy as fuck.

Jason’s Junction ​This primered during school

you can tell arry was talking to a ghost at 9:47 it has no face only a gaping hole with traces of blood
