 Thomas the Tank Engine and Friends - Salty's Secret
Description
| Product Description |
|
| A new, very different cast of friends has just arrived on the island of Sodor. Salty is a distinctive engine who loves the seashore, has a never-ending supply of stories, and can magically transform the normally troublesome trucks into happy, efficient workers. Harvey is an odd-looking fellow who quickly proves himself an indispensable addition to the railway, and Cyril the Fogman demonstrates that technology can never completely replace competent workers. Harold and Percy discover the true value of friendship and even Cranky benefits from a temporarily rosy perspective on the world. Finally, Thomas gets some help from an unexpected source--a dirty, grimy wreck that is somehow connected to Sir Topham Hat's past. Join Thomas and his friends as they discover that, while trains come in very different sizes and shapes, they share certain fundamental similarities that provide the basis of friendship.

We love this video. Salty is especially neat and shows the viewers that even though you may not enjoy what you're doing right now, pretty soon you'll be rewarded for your hard work and get to do what you enjoy. Salty is sent to the quarry to help out and gets the job done so very fast and impresses Sir Topham Hat. Salty is able to keep the troublesome trucks in line and is the only engine able to do so. In the Fogman story, when Hatt tries to replace Seral with a machine to warn the engines of fog, it causes a disaster and Seral gets his job back. Percy helps Harold when he crashes to the ground and learns how to be a true friend.
We watch this video over, and over and over... It is just so very cute and well done. Highly recommend!

What a very, very cute DVD this one is! Salty is just really neat and provides a great deal of entertainment for my little one. He's got one of those Scottish seaman accents, complete with a couple of missing front teeth, and is just a delight to watch. Alec Baldwin narrates this one and does a wonderful job on Salty's voice. Really, really cute and we watch this one over, and over, and over...
All of the stories are very well done and it's very nice to see stories about Cranky again. Salty calls crabby folks around Sodor "Captain" which makes my little one laugh each time. Cranky is the "captain" in this movie.
Highly recommend this one!

Salty's Secret was another good one. It introduced Salty, the dockyard diesel, and Harvey, the crain engine. When Harvey makes his first appearance in Harvey to the rescue, his voice sounds normal. But when he makes his second appearance in No Sleep For Cranky, he sounds very fancy-talking. This video also introduces Elizabeth, the vintage Quarry truck. Here are the stories:
Salty's Secret 4.5/5:
Salty comes to work at the Island of Sodor, but instead of working by the docks like he wanted, he will be working at the Quarry instead. Although sad, Salty realizes that there is work to be done and gets to work immediately. The other engines are surprised at how well Salty handles the freight cars and they just can't seem to figure out his secret.
Harvey To The Rescue 4/5:
Another new engine arrives at the Island of Sodor and his name is Harvey, the crain engine. The other engines find him very different looking at start talking about him. This makes Harvey sad and he doesn't want to work on the Island of Sodor anymore. But soon enough, Harvey will get his chance to prove to the other engines that, although he may look different, he is still just as useful.
No Sleep For Cranky 4.5/5:
Cranky never gets to sleep at all, he has to work all the time. This makes him very cranky, hints the name. One day Cranky gets mad with Bill & Ben and causes an accident. He is then stuck with Bill, Ben, and Salty all night long.
The Fogman 5/5:
Cyrrel the fogman has a very important job to do on the Island of Sodor, he sets explosive caps on the tracks to warn the engines of heavy fog. One day, Sir Topham Hatt shows the engines a new invention, the fog horn. This will be replacing Cyrrel, leaving him jobless. But Sir Topham Hatt soon realizes that Cyrrel is clearly more reliable than the fog horn.
A Bad Day For Harold 5/5:
Percy loves taking the mail train, it is the most important job Sir Topham Hatt has given him. But Harold must take the mail instead of Percy one day due to a broken signal. Harold is too busy teasing Percy than paying atention to what he is doing and he ends up crashing.
Elizabeth The Vintage Quarry Truck 4.5/5:
Thomas must deliver a load to the docks by sunset. Everything is going so well until he breaks his coupling rods. They end up at an old abandoned shed where his driver and fireman go inside, hoping there's a phone in there. But they find something else instead which Thomas thinks is a ghost.
James The Really Splendid Engine(Music Video) 6/5:
A great music video about James. It would've been great on the Best of James video.
And there's all the stories from Salty's Secret. I'd recommend this video, it's a good one. :)
