Pretty much all the videos with this guy in are awesome, but this one has a particularly good surprise coming up. Not to be all clickbait-y "you won't believe what happens 27 minutes in" or anything, but if you like math stuff at all, it is totally worth waiting.
It is just great how much he is clearly having lots of fun explaining the stuff he's talking about. (also, you may ask yourself "why is he sitting on the floor to do this?". It will become evident fairly soon why he's sitting on the floor, don't worry)
I am on mobile so can't check easily, but is the UK that tiny compared to other European countries? I think maybe the fact that the US is just fucking gigantic throws things off a bit.

Large equipment with cheerful faces is a fun cartoon but in real life quite haunting, if you got in front of that tank engines cheerful face it would shred your carcass beneath its wheels, blood splattered on its mouth
I seriously can't tell
I thought there would be a coal car but maybe it doesn't need one if it's not going very far?
if it is a real steam engine that's radical

It's got a little coalbox behind the cabin, before the first passenger car. I think it's integrated into the engine chassis. Probably fine for short routes in a dense metro area.
In 1951, a quiet, picturesque village in southern France was suddenly and mysteriously struck down with mass insanity and hallucinations. At least five people died, dozens were interned in asylums and hundreds afflicted.
On August 16, 1951, the inhabitants were suddenly racked with frightful hallucinations of terrifying beasts and fire.
One man tried to drown himself, screaming that his belly was being eaten by snakes. An 11-year-old tried to strangle his grandmother. Another man shouted: "I am a plane", before jumping out of a second-floor window, breaking his legs. He then got up and carried on for 50 yards. Another saw his heart escaping through his feet and begged a doctor to put it back. Many were taken to the local asylum in strait jackets.
Interesting fact Part II: the twist
the CIA peppered local food with the hallucinogenic drug LSD as part of a mind control experiment at the height of the Cold War.
After the Korean War the Americans launched a vast research programme into the mental manipulation of prisoners and enemy troops. Scientists at Fort Detrick told [H P Albarelli Jr] that agents had sprayed LSD into the air and also contaminated "local food products". Mr Albarelli said the real "smoking gun" was a White House document sent to members of the Rockefeller Commission formed in 1975 to investigate CIA abuses. It contained the names of a number of French nationals who had been secretly employed by the CIA and made direct reference to the "Pont St. Esprit incident."

The shit the CIA pulled in Europe after the second world war to suppress leftist and communist movements was really heinous. The whole Gladius operation for example. Although other governments also got their hands pretty dirty, for example Britain propping up the Nazi collaborateurs in Greece after the war.
338BC: Philip, king of Macedon and father to 18-year-old Alexander the Not Yet Great, intends to take a new wife, Cleopatra the Not The Famous One. Alex is none too pleased about this, since any heirs Cleopatra produces will bump him down from being next in line to the throne. The wedding goes ahead, everyone gets drunk and a fight breaks out, during which Alexander delivers a burn so spicy that people are still talking about it 2353 years later.
At the wedding of Cleopatra, whom Philip fell in love with and married, she being much too young for him, her uncle Attalus in his drink desired the Macedonians would implore the gods to give them a lawful successor to the kingdom by his niece. This so irritated Alexander, that throwing one of the cups at his head, "You villain," said he, "what, am I then a bastard?" Then Philip, taking Attalus's part, rose up and would have run his son through; but by good fortune for them both, either his over-hasty rage, or the wine he had drunk, made his foot slip, so that he fell down on the floor. At which Alexander reproachfully insulted over him: "See there," said he, "the man who makes preparations to pass out of Europe into Asia, overturned in passing from one seat to another."

the greatest historical burn is still the zaporozhian's letter to mehmed the 4th
Zaporozhian Cossacks to the Turkish Sultan!
O sultan, Turkish devil and damned devil's kith and kin, secretary to Lucifer himself. What the devil kind of knight are thou, that canst not slay a hedgehog with your naked arse? The devil shits, and your army eats. Thou shalt not, thou son of a whore, make subjects of Christian sons; we have no fear of your army, by land and by sea we will battle with thee, fuck thy mother.
Thou Babylonian scullion, Macedonian wheelwright, brewer of Jerusalem, goat-fucker of Alexandria, swineherd of Greater and Lesser Egypt, pig of Armenia, Podolian thief, catamite of Tartary, hangman of Kamyanets, and fool of all the world and underworld, an idiot before God, grandson of the Serpent, and the crick in our dick. Pig's snout, mare's arse, slaughterhouse cur, unchristened brow, screw thine own mother!
So the Zaporozhians declare, you lowlife. You won't even be herding pigs for the Christians. Now we'll conclude, for we don't know the date and don't own a calendar; the moon's in the sky, the year with the Lord, the day's the same over here as it is over there; for this kiss our arse!
- Koshovyi otaman Ivan Sirko, with the whole Zaporozhian Host.

lets hope it doesn't screw things up 90% of the time like the real Thomas
If I was Sir Topemhat (sp?) I'd have sold the lot of them for scrap after the first week or so and bought equipment that couldn't think on its own
This will be here until I receive an apology or Weedlordvegeta get any consequences for being a bully
The Fat Controller had far too good a time gaslighting, bullying and shaming them.

It's called Uplay, and it sucks.
I'm not an expert, but it looks an awful lot like an old steam engine with a paintjob and a fibreglass face bolted on the front.
I thought there would be a coal car but maybe it doesn't need one if it's not going very far?
if it is a real steam engine that's radical
It's balls of cotton wool, suspended from a helicopter flying overhead
now look at what source film maker can do compared to that video!
not at work though. or on the forums.
