![]() The second was that the producers wanted more stories centering on Thomas, the nominal main character. The first was that many of the books not yet adapted featured large numbers of new characters, and so would be expensive to produce. There were two primary reasons for diverging from the original books. The third season was made at a cost of £1.3 million was a combination of episodes derived from the Railway Series, from stories in the Thomas the Tank Engine and Friends magazine and original stories. The series also adapted a story from a Thomas Annual, 'Thomas and Trevor', and an especially written stand-alone story, Thomas and the Missing Christmas Tree. This last book was unusual, in that it was written specifically by Christopher Awdry in order to be adapted for the series, as a contractual obligation of the series at that time was that it could not create original stories that had not previously appeared in print. The second season took stories from Book 9 to Book 30. The first season took stories from the first eight books, along with one specially written by the Rev. It was joined by a large version of James in the tenth season.įor the first two seasons the series was closely based on stories from the Railway Series. ![]() Beginning with the ninth season, the Thomas model also interacted with the narrow gauge engines. In Season 6, the characters known as "the Pack" were also constructed to a large scale, and large models of Thomas and Percy were made to interact with them. Models were later constructed entirely from scratch.įrom Season 5 onwards, some larger scale models were used for the Skarloey Railway characters, in order to make it easier to fit the complex mechanisms into them while retaining a sufficient level of detail. ![]() Coaches and trucks were made using Tenmille kits. ![]() As well as the eye mechanisms, these bodies also include smoke generators. They used chassis made by Marklin with specially made bodies. The models were initially built to a scale of 10 millimetres to the foot. Each character has several different faces to convey different emotions. The characters' faces are sculpted from foam rubber. However, their eyes do move by use of remote controlled mechanisms. The use of a narrator removes the need to make characters' mouths move when they speak. In recent seasons, CGI has been used to generate smoke and other effects. Stop-motion is generally used for instances in which a human or animal character is seen to move. The locomotives and other vehicles move, but people and animals are generally static. The series is animated using live-action models, seen at the time of first production as the most effective way of realising the stories without the cost and expense of conventional animation.

Here's an example of the wiki's faggotry, a member of SiF took this from the wiki's page for Thomas and Friends Season 19, I looked, but the titles were removed, but it could have been on a different Season 19 page, as there are hundreds of them!:ġ.
