Awesome / Sodor's Legend of the Lost Treasure

Go To

  • When Ryan's cars which are filled with dynamite catch fire, everyone panics and tries to get rid of the dynamite, but Thomas quickly springs into action, trying to shunt the cars away. However, Ryan accidentally ends up in front of him and in great danger. As Thomas races down the closed cutting, he bumps Ryan into a siding and out of the way, then shoves the cars into the buffers, sending the dynamite flying into the very same crevice he created before.
  • The entire chase against Sailor John has awesome moments from all involved parties.
    • The Small Railway Engines and Ryan manage to derail the gigantic pirate ship, evening the odds Thomas has against Sailor John. Mike, Rex and Bert shove ballast wagons onto the rails, slowing it down, and a rope loops around Ryan's buffer, so he is able to completely topple the ship.
    • As the first human main antagonist, Sailor John manages to pull off some truly crazy and awesome stunts, most notably rigging the giant pirate ship into a huge escape vehicle. When Thomas is catching up, he resorts to throwing whatever he can at the tank engine, including a shovel, Skiff's anchor, and even dynamite!
    • Skiff manages to jostle himself so that Sailor John drops the dynamite he was going to throw at Thomas. Especially notable because Skiff was the pirate's main (though unwilling) method of transport, so there was very little he could do to help in the first place.
    • Finally, there's Thomas. What did he manage to do in the span of that night? Quickly got past a red signal and Gordon by shouting one of the express engine's catch phrases, followed Sailor John relatively closely all the way to Arlesburgh Harbor despite the pirate having multiple ways of getting ahead, survived getting multiple things thrown or swung at him, and managed to bump Skiff and Sailor John a number of times.
    Sailor John: Shiver me timbers, you won't give up, will you?!
