Darker and Edgier | |
| Sodor (Web Animation) / int_14beeefd | comment |
Darker and Edgier: While not devoid of humor, Sodor tends to make many of the stables that occur in canon more seriously. Bill’s accident and the ever changing landscape of Sodor as shown in "One Trick Too Far" and "How I Learned To Stop Worrying And Love Modernization" are very good examples of the former and the latter respectively. While no one has actually died so far, death, manslaughter and murder are concepts that are explicitly referenced throughout the show, a major departure from its kid-friendly source material. | |

Hero Antagonist | |
| Sodor (Web Animation) / int_1501e2dd | comment |
Hero Antagonist: Thomas is this to Diesel in "Last Chance". Thomas believes Diesel is responsible for orchestrating the Branch Line Incident, and hatches a plan to send him packing. He genuinely thinks he's doing the right thing, but realises too late that the man who convinced him to do it is the real mastermind. | |

| Sodor (Web Animation) / int_1c5599e4 | comment |
Reformed, but Rejected: Done twice. Despite his attempts to make amends, Duck doesn’t believe that Diesel has truly changed in “Duck and Diesel�. Meanwhile the preview for “Last Chance� seems to show that Thomas has also adapted this attitude to Diesel as well. | |

Fire-Forged Friends: Duck and Diesel don’t have a good start after the latter returns to Sodor after the events of "Revolutionary Engines" with Duck even deciding to attempt to crash Diesel. However after they work together in "The Branch Line Incident" they slowly and surely let their grudge with each other die. By the time of "Last Chance", they’ve become good friends with one another. | |

| Sodor (Web Animation) / int_319e4a2f | comment |
Even Evil Has Standards: In "Revolutionary Engines", while he may not like Salty being friendly to the steam engines, Diesel is clearly taken aback when Arry suggests that Salty should be gotten rid of for it. Discussed in "The Branch Line Incident" by Toby, as regardless of whether or not Diesel has reformed, he’s certain that Diesel has enough morals to help them stop the accidents that are occurring. | |

Batman Gambit | |
| Sodor (Web Animation) / int_38d02d44 | comment |
Batman Gambit: Diesel 10's plan in "The Branch Line Incident" relies on knowing exactly where each engine will be at any given time, and predicting what will happen when their routines are disrupted. He gets it pretty much exactly right, but screws it all up by telling his plan to Diesel, not realising he's had a Heel–Face Turn. Flora attempts this in "The Vicarstown Gambit" with the troublesome trucks by analysing the railway's timetables and predicting the trucks' behaviour. It works for almost every truck... except Scruffey. | |

Surprisingly Realistic Outcome | |
| Sodor (Web Animation) / int_3ed23024 | comment |
Surprisingly Realistic Outcome: With how grounded in reality Sodor is, this tends to happen. "Deceit" notes that due to his claw, Diesel Ten can’t even leave his shed since a contraption like that would be illegal in the real world. "The Vicarstown Gambit" has three examples two of which are noted by Bill. First there’s the revelation that due to all of the crashes and chaos that occurred in the first season, the NWR has run out of money and is struggling to find time to repair Ben. Then as Bill notes, he can’t just forgive his brother for the accident he caused despite still loving him. Then after bashing into Scruffy, Flora is barred from working anywhere beyond her own branch line since Flora’s actions have caused the NWR’s money issues to become even worse since now Scruffy needs to be repaired again. | |

Jerk with a Heart of Gold: Gordon, much like his counterpart from the source material. He is rude, arrogant, and dismissive, but "The Three Railway Engines Come Home" shows that he really does care about his fellow engines and considers them his friends, and is willing to own up to his mistakes. | |

Downer Ending | |
| Sodor (Web Animation) / int_4e3d253b | comment |
Downer Ending: Sodor II has a few. "The Vicarstown Gambit" ends with the confirmation that Bill's rebuild has halted, and that he is now slated to be scrapped. Flora is also barred from working beyond her branch line after she angrily crushes Scruffey to pieces. “Last Chance� ends with Diesel being framed for crashing Duck, then exiled from the railway that previously saved him from scrap. Diesel 10 and Perry seem convinced that this means he will be scrapped soon, though they seem unaware that he has instead been purchased by Paul Maxwell. Furthermore, Thomas is threatened by Perry to keep quiet or else he will meet a horrible fate at his hands. | |

Heel–Face Turn: After the events of "Revolutionary Engines", Diesel undergoes one while he’s sent away. After returning in "Duck and Diesel", he’s determined to be really useful to the railway by apologizing to all the engines he’s hurt. Both "A Message For Peter Sam" and "Last Chance" reveal that Chester used to be a criminal who helped Perry in the past. Now all Chester wants to do is live his life away from his past. | |

Named by the Adaptation: P.T. Boomer's given names are never stated in the original script for Thomas and the Magic Railroad, but Sodor II reveals his first name is Perry. He also claims that his middle name is Thomas, which would explain the "T", but this may have been a tactic in his manipulation of Thomas in "Last Chance". | |

George Lucas Altered Version: Both "One Trick Too Far" and "Master of the Railway" have received updated versions released long after the original episodes.

Breather Episode | |
| Sodor (Web Animation) / int_80a247a9 | comment |
Breather Episode: Most episodes in Sodor I feature some sort of dark, dramatic hook, but sandwiched between them is "James and the Not-So-Famous Visitor", a light-hearted comedy episode. Even the Flying Scotsman's accident is played for laughs, despite being a major plot point in later episodes. When watching the full series in chronological order, the spin-off episode “Which Way Now?� is a completely comedic episode that comes right after “The Vicarstown Gambit� where we witness the loveable Flora snap and destroy Scruffey in a rage, and Bill is sentenced for scrap and right before “A Message For Peter Sam� where Bill is kidnapped in the middle of the night by Paul Maxwell for mysterious reasons. The fourth spin-off episode "Thomas And The Horrid Lorry" is a light hearted affair that chronologically comes right after "How I Learned To Stop Worrying And Love Modernization" where Arry and Bert struggle with the possibility of being obsolete and right before "Deceit" where Ben has an dream with an mysterious engine and his brother Bill with the implications that Bill is going to be scrapped. It’s also revealed P.T. Boomer is the real mastermind of the series and he and Diesel Ten still plan on causing havoc for Sodor. | |

Ambiguously Evil: Paul Maxwell appears to just be a normal man who’s trying to run his company and wants Hiro. Where he fits this trope is him abducting and seemingly trying to scrap Bill though it’s debatable whether or not Maxwell was going to scrap him since he does give the saddle engine a chance to live. | |

Faux Affably Evil: Diesel 10’s polite nature is quickly undercut by his tendency to make ominous threats and, as Ben learns, guilt tripping. He is, however, actually friendly with Arry and Bert, who also qualify to a lesser extent, and Diesel pre-Heel–Face Turn. On the surface, Perry seems friendly and cheerful, but he will not hesitate to manipulate, gaslight, and outright threaten anyone he thinks can get him what he wants. Thomas learns this the hard way. | |

Big Bad: Diesel 10 is this for Sodor I, though the Sodor II opener "Deceit" seems to suggest that P.T Boomer is the real mastermind. | |

Bitter Sweet Ending: This is how the first season ends as, while Diesel 10 is stopped, the scars he left on Sodor are implied to be long lasting with the NWR’s future uncertain. | |

Mood Whiplash | |
| Sodor (Web Animation) / int_a4c37cbe | comment |
Mood Whiplash: Done very deliberately in "One Trick Too Far", the series opener. The first half of the episode plays out like a regular Thomas & Friends episode, with a very light-hearted and comedic tone, but takes a very sudden dramatic and solemn turn once Ben causes his brother to crash. From hereon out, the series as a whole would, for the most part, adopt a darker and more mature tone. | |

Ascended Extra | |
| Sodor (Web Animation) / int_a65288e2 | comment |
Ascended Extra: According to a YouTube comment by CyberRusty99, Chester was originally meant to be a one-off throwaway character who only appeared in "Deceit", but his role is expanded in "A Message for Peter Sam" onwards, where he is revealed to be a former associate of P.T. Boomer. Thomas only has a few brief appearances in the first season, having already been Demoted to Extra after being the main protagonist of the original show. The second season expands his role significantly, making him one of the lead characters of "Last Chance.'' | |

Leave the Camera Running: "A Message for Peter Sam" ends with a static shot of a bridge that lasts for about two minutes, broken up only by brief close-ups of the engine going across it. The credits roll over the rest of the shot, long after the engine has passed by. | |

Demoted to Extra: Most of the Steam Team from Thomas & Friends are relegated to minor roles in Sodor I, with the exception of James, who is the protagonist of "James and the Not-So-Famous-Visitor", and Toby, a major supporting character in three episodes. Emily in particular only has two lines. So far, Sodor II has only given a major role to Thomas, with "Last Chance". The rest have received either bit parts or no screen time at all. | |

Sadistic Choice: Sir Topham Hatt is forced to make one at the end of "Last Chance" as Duck’s crash has put more strain on the NWR’s financials and since he’s already repaired the Flying Scotsman, Topham is forced to potentially send Diesel for scrap or delay Duck’s repairs. He does choose to send Diesel off to a buyer but it’s likely Diesel won’t be coming back to Sodor. | |

The ending of the first season hints that Ben would be able to see his brother again. Then "The Vicarstown Gambit" reveals that Bill’s rebuild has been canceled and he’s slated to become scrap. | |

Shout-Out | |
| Sodor (Web Animation) / int_c75df49a | comment |
Shout-Out: There are a number of major pop culture references throughout the series. The opening text of "The Branch Line Incident", which falsely states that the accidents and railway procedures have been depicted "as realistic as possible", is a shout-out to Fargo's intentionally false "true story" disclaimer, complimented by a music cue from the score of the television show. The first season finale is named after the film Dr. Strangelove or: How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Bomb, and much like that film, ends with a montage set to a rendition of "We'll Meet Again". The "Are you the farmer?" exchange in "Which Way Now?" references a similar scene from Withnail and I. The video game that Paul Maxwell plays in "Deceit" is Spider-Man 2 – Enter: Electro. He's even playing it on Kid Mode. The Deputy Director of the FBI, introduced in "Deceit", is based on Gordon Cole from Twin Peaks. The scene in "A Message for Peter Sam" where the FBI Special Agent arrives in Australia is a parody of Agent Dale Cooper's introductory monologue from the Twin Peaks pilot episode. At the beginning of "A Message for Peter Sam", Samson claims to have watched a slow-paced TV show about a group of Italian singers from New Jersey who "haven't sung anything yet". The show? "The Baritones... or something like that." "The Three Railway Engines Come Home" has a scene where Sir Topham Hatt is asked if he'd lost his hat; there is a sudden dramatic crash zoom into his face, the screen goes red, and a clip of a goat eating his hat plays to the tune of Quincy Jones' Ironside theme. This is almost exactly what happens whenever the Bride sees one of her enemies in the Kill Bill films. The lorry's crash scene in "Thomas and the Horrid Lorry" features onomatopoeia flash cards and music cues from the 1966 Batman series. | |

Deconstruction Fic | |
| Sodor (Web Animation) / int_e6b8db89 | comment |
Deconstruction Fic : As mentioned above, Sodor tends to give the stables of the franchise more weight than in canon and shows how they affect the characters overall. One Trick Too Far the very first episode shows just how dangerous Bill and Ben’s tricks can be as Ben’s trick causes Bill to have an massive crash with Bill resenting his brother showing that he won’t forgive his brother for almost killing him. The various crashes and accidents that occur throughout the series eventually cause the NWR’s money to deplete which nearly damns Bill and Diesel to be scrapped.. | |
