Really Useful Engine

Really Useful Engine (2015 Version)

DO NOT USE UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES.

Here's an original remix I did for, what else, episode 8 of the Trainz RWS! It uses elements of the original RUE Sing-Along, as well as the cover heard in "The Adventure Begins." The remix was heard in snippets in two scenes of the episode, but now you can listen to it in its full, synthesized glory. I really hope you enjoy! 

Arranged in Acoustica Mixcraft 7 using samples and VST emulations of the Roland Jupiter-6 Analog Synthesizer, a Linn LM-1 VST and Soundpack, and a few other synth, percussive, and orchestral instruments. Original Sing-Along Song Written and Composed by Mike O'Donnell and Junior Campbell.

Magical Tracks Really Useful Engine

I find it really aggravating that there isn't a full version of He's A Really Useful Engine in Thomas and the Magic Railroad. So I tried making a full version of the song using the original version, instrumental version, and the one from the tv series. It ain't perfect, but I'm really proud on how this turned out.

Really Useful Engine - The Magic Railroad

I got requested to do a swelling, cinematic arrangement of "Welcome To The Island of Sodor" from the New Series. Enjoy guys!

Welcome To The Island Of Sodor (Arranged For Orchestra)

Here is an arrangement for Toby's theme, with a bit of the "Toby" song as well. For this arrangement I've used the theme from "Oh Doctor Beeching" as a basis. I've even quoted it near the end. haha.
Enjoy!

Toby's Theme (Arranged For Small Ensemble)

Here's an oldie but a goldie. It's an updated version of my "Percy" arrangement from about a year ago. I think I'm a much better mixing engineer than when I first made this, so I went back in and spruced it up, and gave it a more realistic "live band" sound. Hope you all enjoy!

Percy's Theme (Trad Jazz Arrangement) (New 2020 Mix)

This'll be the last time I'll tinker with this arrangement. I've made many updates to my orchestral Gordon suite. Including some thicker orchestration, and a proper ending, as I've been thinking  the old version ends a bit too abruptly. haha. Gordon's theme is my favourite piece of music in the show, so I hope the tinkering I've done to my arrangement does better justice to the theme. haha
Just like the older version, this is an orchestral medley of Gordon's different themes throughout the series. Enjoy folks!

Gordon The Big Engine (Expanded Concert Suite) (FINAL REVISION)

Happy holidays everyone! Here is a belated Christmas present. Thomas The Tank Engine and Friends has its fair share of winter themed music, which I have made into this winter themed medley. Included in this arrangement are the Christmas Branch Line theme, the Season 6 Winter theme, and the Watermill theme. I hope you all enjoy this arrangement and the variations.

Winter On Sodor (Orchestral Medley By Headmaster Hastings)

Here is a mini piano concerto of James' theme, featuring a few of its several variants throughout the series. Enjoy friends!

James The Red Engine (Arranged For Piano And Orchestra By Headmaster Hastings)
