They reached the station throat. Oliver's brakes came on with a groan. But brakes were useless against loaded surging trucks. They pushed forward yelling, "ON! ON! ON!" Piece for the RWS collab

And here is Duck (and also Oliver) as forest guardians(?)! They’re very different from the ones we’ve met already, and they never hang around the forest for longer than they need to.

gave them retractable arms to spice things up and they will willingly eat humans, yet no forest guardian seems to know their roles… almost as if these guys aren’t even guardians,,,

if I may, good evening how are you? Are you well. What if Douglas and Oliver kiss yes 🥹

Your wish is on command hun✨✨

Here's a question for yall since I'm curious

Characters like Duck and the Scottish Twins were absent from the show for years, right- it could be easy to assume we were just always missing them, and that they were just busy off screen.

But Duck specifically drawing attention to how he hasn't seen Donald and Douglas in ages in Lost Treasure, that to me feels more indicative of them truly being gone, because he is the most likely to have seen them on his little western line.

What do yall think? I'm a little enamored with the thought that they had been sent away for a year or more, perhaps on loan to a heritage railway in Scotland. And they come back, and Duck and Oliver are just so pleased to have them back at last. Or do yall think they were just bustling about off-screen, and yeah, it's just a cute nod to how they've been gone from the franchise for years. All takes are valid!

Of course I'm asking because you know, I would want to incorporate the time away into my shipping content 😏 absence makes the heart grow fonder and all that. Home is where the heart is, on the Little Western. 🖤💚

"Well I-.. don't know, but it feels like you've been gone for ages!"

“I’ll be glad to help you,” Douglas smiled. “It will have to look like your engine is ready for scrap and I’m taking it away.” Douglas pulled Oliver on to his back and carried him to his engine.

Yes okay. I have watched Escape about a hundred times this week and finally decided to draw them. Come on, it’s one of the best episodes by far!

Not really shipped in the AU, but feel free to tag as such if you wish.

Thoughts:

They basically scrapped Bulgy lmao

Bill and Ben are war criminals

Also Percy always gets covered in stuff

Trucks and coaches and trains oh my! The engines aren’t the only ones to receive beast treatment, the railway becoming like a big farm.
