Do you know how confusing it is that Thomas the Tank Engine has three blue, two red, and two green characters and they are the same shade of paint? We read Thomas books and my kid gets confused because Emily drives past Thomas, then meets Thomas coming down the line, past Thomas number 3.
I’m gonna guess British shops only sold three colours of paint in 1984?

Such a trainsist, thinking all blue or green trains look the same. /s
Given Awdry was quite keen on accuracy to the real world engines (see the falling out with one of the first artists) I’m actually surprised there isn’t more consistency with the liveries. The Culdee Fell Railway has all engines with the same purple livery, and I think from memory the steam trains on the Skarloey Railway are red, which is more accurate to real life as generally each railway would have its own livery.
I think earlier on when there were fewer engines it was less of a problem as they all had fairly distinct shapes being based on different real engine classes Garden and pre rebuild Henry probably being the least distinct.

Even so, it’s hard explaining to a 4 year old no no that’s not Edward that’s Thomas look at the flat sides, the flat bits come further towards the front than on Edward.
Also noone can know how many people didn’t even try to shoot trump or any (former) president for that matter, because the Secret Service was there with them.
Excellent write-up, I have always enjoyed your articles, you’re such an excellent writer, always on point. This article is loaded to the hilt. Also, I would like to share an informative resource with you that I found on the internet here is the link to that resource https://www.alignedwealthadv.com/financial-planning-fort-worth-tx
My god…words cannot express how much I loathe that “man”. The only thing that comes close is screaming violently into a pillow. You know…because unlike him I’m trying to be polite and respect my neighbors right to exist without hearing me. But I’m still absolutely screaming into a pillow until my eyes bleed.
