Description
This is something I have been pondering ever since seeing Inside Out (spoilers: it's a great film, you gotta see it if you haven't) - if the trains have emotions in their heads, how do the emotions handle their actions? How can they make a character react to their enviornment and their peers? I'd like to see what you can come up with. Anyway, I felt like finding out for myself by showing the emotions of our #1 blue engine.EMOTION - MAIN COLOR with LINING, LETTER/NUMBER LINING AND RUNNING PLATE, and WHEEL TRIMMINGS
Joy - yellow with blue, light green and golden lining
Sadness - light blue with blue, light gray, and pale blue lining
Fear - lavender with purple, dark red, and pale blue lining
Disgust - light green with green, pale green and purple lining
Anger - red with golden, brown, and orange lining
Oh, and if you're wondering - Fear has purple eyes, and Anger has reddish/brown eyes. I added flames coming out of his funnel for a laugh
If you're also wondering this, here are a few examples of Thomas displaying each emotion: (I'm sure there's more for each, but you get the basic idea)
Joy: When he recieves his branchline (Thomas and the Breakdown Train)
Sadness: When he's accused for being a "regular law breaker" (Thomas in Trouble)
Fear: When Percy pretends to be a ghost to scare him (Ghost Train)
Disgust: When he first meets Terence and insults him (Thomas, Terence and the Snow)
Anger: When he accuses Percy for getting him dirty on purpose (Thomas, Percy and the Coal)
I've even thought of rewriting a classic Thomas story in style of Inside Out - basically, how the emotions of each character act and react to what happens in real life. I feel like trying out Thomas and the Guard and/orΒ Dirty Objects to see how it could work.

So, here's how I came up with the name if you want to know, but then again you'd probably guess. Β Β The first seven engines (Thomas, Edward, Henry, Gordon, James, Percy and Toby) are part of the core NWR fleet of engines, or as David Mitton christened them, "The Magnificent Seven." Β Then with engines 8-11 (Duck, Donald, Douglas and Oliver), the engines on the Little Western, with the first seven make, what fans call, the "Awdry 11." Β Then when Emily was added to the core cast (Steam Team), she was the unofficial #12. Β So with the Steam Team, plus the Little Western engines, we have the main set of engines. Β At first I called them the Main Twelve (kind of like the Mane 6), but I thought the "Sudrian Dozen" sounded like a better name, seeing as they're from Sodor and there's twelve of them. Β What d'you think?

So if you're going to re-write Thomas episodes Inside-Out style, wouldn't it make sense to do emotions for the other engines? Β I mean, Thomas isn't the main character in every episode, y'know.

It does make sense to have every engine have emotions of their own.

Also, since you're starting off with Thomas and the Conductor, and James in a Mess, it would make sense to do James next. Β That is, after you do T&TC

I meant to say, if you do JIAM make sure to do James' Emotions first. Β It'd make sense.

Oh, I see. "Congratulations, San Francisco - you've ruined pizza!" (No they didn't)
