I think this is rather sweet although the Australian one looks permanently drunk lol. Anyway, which would do you think looks the most interesting? Which nation would you have liked to see?

Two India trains but no Japan?

They got it right then.

 

[Donner]

Interesting. I'm sure they had plenty of consultants on hand to make sure none of the trains looked too stereotypical.

Zinger!




Off topic though, no one else is creeped out by the concept of Thomas the Tank Engine?

As far as divercity Hiro apparently was one of the first. http://ttte.wikia.com/wiki/Hiro

And lol I've never payed attention to this show, but just assumed that with their big grey mechanical engine faces they were all just ethnically ambiguous.

Lol, the USA doesn't get its own train, it has to share with Canada.

Lol, the USA doesn't get its own train, it has to share with Canada.

It took me two seconds to look it up.

http://ttte.wikia.com/wiki/Sam

Hailing from the United States of America, Sam is the largest, strongest steam engine to ever visit the Island of Sodor. With a big heart to match his massive size, Sam is super-strong and will travel far and wide to help an engine in need.

I've never looked at this franchise before I opened this thread, but I think these new trains are for those that weren't already represented.

That may be, but his name is Vinnie. You know he's from Jersey. Or The Bronx.

[Pink Ranger]

He moved to Canada because of Donald Trump.

The original Vinnie Train! ...woo wooo

 

[Duke]

He moved to Canada because of Donald Trump.

Ah, but's he's coming back, thanks to Trump's vaunted campaign promises of "bringing back jobs" & Making America Great Again.

They didnt put much effort into the Russian one.

You're surprised the Russians cut corners when building a major industrial vehicle? I'd be surprised if it doesn't explode on its maiden voyage and take out the one from China with it.

Sir Topham Hatt is disappointed in you, Terence

 

[Silvermoth]

They got it right then.

Ha! Well yes that very true. Actually as a train he's probably the most sober in the entire country actually

They didnt put much effort into the Russian one.

Yeah he looks slightly evil. Do you think he'll be trying to orchestrate a communist revolution on the isle of sodor? Diesels rising up against steam, that sort of thing?

 

[Alien Anal]

Ahhhhahha Shane the train is great.

 

[Guts]

What would happen if I stab one of these trains in the face.

 

[Drizzle]

This.

 

[BestGirl]

Interesting. I'm sure they had plenty of consultants on hand to make sure none of the trains looked too stereotypical.

And yet the French one has a tiny mustache.

No wai! "He is a real comedian, who will put a smile on everyone’s face." His joviality can't be a ruse for something more sinister.

Ivan's carrying illegal firearms to shady people of Sodor

 

[Silvermoth]

Ahhhhahha Shane the train is great.

I wonder who they'll get to voice him? Some people have suggested John Jarrett which is...definitely creepy

 

[Guts]

Thomas the Tank Engine seems darker than I thought it was. Makes me wonder why Zack Snyder hasn't made a train movie yet.
