3WSR is a roleplay/story based on ''WesternAnimation/ThomasAndFriends''. However, most of the series focuses on its signature characters, the Colorfolk, a group of magic-powered individuals who either defend or invade Sodor. It gets weirder from there. Expect {{No Fourth Wall}} and a lot of randomosity.

The forum it is based on is here: 3wsr.proboards.com

* LoadsAndLoadsOfCharacters: There are over 1300 colormen, and an equal amount of colormen. Plus all the Colorfolk ancestors, although thankfully only a small fraction will ever appear. There's probably close to 100 named characters in VEC, and at least 30 in SOM, and another 30+ in GOD/PIC. Then there's 3000 Presuisoltians...

* {{Absurdly Spacious Sewer}}: Parodied. Apparently they aren't the actual sewers, though.
* {{All There In The Manual}}: Many supplementary stories have been written to flesh out the backstories of various characters, factions, and locations.
* {{Artifact Title}}: 3WSR stands for "Three Word Story Revolution". It started out as a game under that name on a different forum. When it became popular enough to move to its own forum, they kept the name.
* {{Ascended Extra}}: Man In White, Man In Silver, Man In Gold, and Man In Yellow had much smaller roles in their debut.
** VEC as a whole, particularly Chaos.

* {{Author Avatar}}: The Authors themselves appear as characters later on, although recently they've only appeared as jokes or for meta discussion.
* {{Blessed With Suck}}: Man In Capri can use magic- but whatever spell he casts traps him under a fishbowl. During the flashback, it's implied that his entire lineage has this problem.
* {{Blue Is Heroic}}: Initially subverted, then played straight, by the Man In Blue.
* {{Breaking The Fourth Wall}}: At one point, Man In Infrared breaks a literal fourth wall, but {{Goes Mad From The Revelation}} when he looks across it.
* {{Cannot Spit It Out}}
** Man In Blue to Woman In Blue. {{Justified}} in that he was afraid their children would destroy each other.
** Man In Yellow to Woman In Yellow.
* {{The Chessmaster}}: Chessmaster is named after this trope, although [[spoiler:The Guild Of Death]] might be a better example.
* {{Continuity Lock Out}}: It can be hard to follow the story, what with various retcons, contradictions, asides, and the fact that most of the early game was deleted.
