Thomas the Tank Engine/Heartwarming: Difference between revisions

{{work}}

* While ''[[Thomas the Tank Engine]]'' isn't necessarily animation, it probably fits best under here. One particular example that stands out is A Close Shave. Pretty much all of it, but there's one part that always gets this troper, after Duck stopped the freight cars from hurting passengers by crashing into a barber shop, and the barber yells at him without knowing the scenario:

'''Duck:''' That's alright, sir. I didn't know that either. }}

** Along with Duck being told that he can come home, he rolls into the shed, greeted by whistles of all the other engines.

* A short, but memorable moment, was when Thomas returned from being mended during the Daisy arc.

* The Deputation's end definitely qualifies. The Fat Controller has been contemplating whether to send Donald or Douglas home.

'''Narrator:''' But the rest of his speech was drowned by a delighted chorus of cheers and whistles. The twins were here to stay. }}

* The ending of Henry's Forest, doubles as a Tear Jerker

* In Four Litle Engines, Skarloey, who was long overdue for repairs at that point, pulled a passenger train for Sir Handel after he fails. But that's not all, one of his springs give way and he struggles on to the station, and makes it. He earns a respectful silence from James, and we get this nice exchange at the end of the episode.

 

'''Skarloey's driver:'''They can if they're mended, Old Faithful. You deserve it. }}

* The end of All at Sea

** All of this accompanied by heartwarming music and a beautiful shot of the engines looking out of the sunset.
