Why N&W 475 was in Thomas & The Magic Railroad

Thomas & The Magic Railroad has a lot of mixed opinions. But for me, it's definitely my favorite Thomas movie. Anyway, many have taken notice of the appearance of Strasburg Railroad, more specifically Norfolk & Western 475. This locomotive appears as the Rainbow Sun train for the Indian Valley Railroad in Shining Time. But the question is, why was 475 chosen over the original representative being Union Pacific 844? And why was 475 chosen over any of Strasburg's other steam locomotives? Well, here's how that happened.

This was really interesting! I had no idea that's why 475 was chosen. Considering you mentioned it, I'm surprised you didn't talk about how the reason 844 didn't "Reprise" its role as the Rainbow Sun was because it was out of service due to a flue failure that occurred earlier that year

@quillmaurer6563 3 года назад

Good point. Not to mention that 844 is a much larger locomotive with associated greater operating costs, renting it for filming would probably have been much more expensive. I never got the sense this movie had a huge budget to work with. The Shining Time Station clip of that locomotive I would assume was stock footage.

This movie's plot was so confusing to me as a kid... I remember asking, "why is sugar Diesel's enemy?"

@jamesgroccia644 3 года назад

I think it has something to do with sugar combining with #10’s air-fuel mixture and seizing up his engine. To quote Alec Baldwin from that scene, “I dump this [sugar] in your tank it’ll seize you up for good!” But I’m not too well-versed in the science behind the railroads; I’m in it for the steamers.

@quillmaurer6563 3 года назад

My guess is it's sort of like James speculated, I know that there's at least a myth that sugar in a vehicle's fuel tank will destroy the engine. Though I've seen numerous tests, including by Mythbusters, that debunked that, didn't seem to bother the engine at all. Though that was with gasoline engines, it might be more problematic for diesels. Maybe it gunks up the unit injectors and blocks fuel. If so, the movie could have explained that better, it doesn't seem like something that would be obvious to kids, or really to anyone. It also seems implausible for that to be a serious threat to Diesel 10 as Mr. Conductor would have to remove the fuel cap and dump probably a very large quantity of sugar (enough to sufficiently contaminate thousands of gallons of diesel fuel) into a sentient diesel locomotive with a murder-claw on the roof. If he could have done that to Diesel 10, there's plenty of other stuff he could have done (fuses? You won't be needing these!) I don't think just throwing a bag of sugar at him could have done anything.

@thesilversignal 3 года назад

@@quillmaurer6563 But he could pour it into the mouth of #10, due to the theory that the mouths of the engines lead to the fuel tank, or boiler, or whatever form of fuel/water storage inside the engine.

@quillmaurer6563 3 года назад

@@thesilversignal True, it all depends on how we theorize their world works, which is pretty ambiguous and at times inconsistent (Magic Railroad the locomotives can operate themselves and are usually driverless, while most other Thomas renditions they have to be driven by people, in fact several times they have run away and been unable to stop themselves). But again, good luck pouring a large quantity of sugar into the mouth (which presumably could be closed) of a sentient locomotive with murder claw on the roof.

I've heard rumors about there potentially being a remake of this movie. If that's the case and they plan to use Strasburg and the Keystone Corridor again, I certainly wonder how that's going to go over with Positive Train Control, of course that is if anything has yet been done to the Keystone regarding PTC.

I remember seeing TATMR when it first came out in the US. I loved the scenes with 475 in them. I’ve always considered 475 as part of the cast of TATMR. I also noticed the p40dc in the window reflection and came up with a head-canon for why it’s there. My theory is that 475’s “rainbow sun” train is actually a ferry train taking passengers from Harrisburg to Strasburg railroad’s Shining Time Station. The station at Harrisburg is owned by Amtrak hence the P40dc but they allow the Rainbow Sun special access to the station’s far-right platform

Fun Fact: strasburg 90 only made a single trip off railroad in its Strasburg owned career. It served as lead loco in a excursion in 1968, with the normal 2 G5s used by High Iron Company being used in emergency service to heat Reading when the steam company suffered a failure, Steamtown 127 took the train solo from Jersey City to Bethlehem PA where 90 was hitched on the front to help the train climb over to Ashely PA. On the down hill run 90 derailed forcing the train to stop and for help in form of a RSD-4 to arrive from the helper track. Bringing the train into town. They ran around after wyeing the power and the RSD lead giving a triple header back up (struggling as was 127 but 90 faired well) and they successfully completed the trip dropping 90 at Bethlehem for servicing before running light back to Strasburg. Considering the fact it derailed on a line that did run 2-10-0s for a time being it probably contributed to the fact it was not sent off road again.

@MasterGamer88 3 года назад

Man it is freaky how my life has followed some of the landmarks of this train. At least once a year as a kid my parents would take me to Strasburg and ride on those cars and were most likely being pulled by this train. Then fast forward by about 20 years give or take and I've moved to the Midwest. I end up going on a road trip to take a ride on the Boone & Scenic Railway because we were in the neighborhood to visit the "Future birthplace of Captain Kirk." Now I find I'm a stone's throw away from the Illinois Railroad Museum. Funny how life works out but I never thought I'd be tied to this train.

I bet Union Pacific RR No. 844 was busy with work & couldn't reprise it's role as Rainbow Sun or it would be too heavy for Strasburg RR's tracks.

Wait if 475 travelled down the former PRR Main then the train had to cut through the northeastern corridor because it was the only was towards the line to Harrisburg

Great video! Did you get my email btw? I was hoping that you could star in my next episode of Remarkable Engines with your audio of part of the script.

Seeing as how that shot is in the station and they were shooting between Amtrak arrivals, I don't think that 111 was the helper engine. I tried looking some stuff up but didn't find much. However, the last uploaded picture of 111 I could find was Oct 1, 2020 so it's still around.

I think I should mention in the colouring in book Adaption of Thomas and the Magic Railroad they made the rainbow sun locomotive based on an E2 Thomas's basis just with an American style front on the boiler
