Right what it says on the tin.
Update: now it's more accurate to an actual J50 tank engine, but the legacy versions are still here if you want them for whatever reason. I also added the Awdry "broomstick"/"No Where Railway" livery because why not?
Note 1: The green J50 is a brainwashed version of Thomas called Godred (not to be confused with the Culdee Fell Railway engine of the same name), from Twitter user @/RailwaySparrow's AU "The Sodor Relocation Project". In said AU, lots of changes, including the destruction of Tidmouth Sheds, drive Thomas mad which lead him to accidentally killing a man and being put in the back of the shed for a few days before being moved to the Peel Godred Branch Line and being rebuilt as a J50 who goes insane because of what he has done. The AU is sadly deleted.
Note 2: The new orange J50 is a character from the show no one talks about, Bernard the Nifty J50. He got pushed to the background alongside Edward and Henry in BWBA, which is a shame really. (Real talk, he's a fan OC by me and @jordangaming101.)

Plus, Thomas is still loved in the public and they felt bad for the reboot, especially kids. Thomas still goes to the big screen and even I heard SLOTLT and TGR made more money than TATMR, even if TATMR had a more mainstream theatrical release. That's very cool, since families loved Thomas, no matter what. 
It's just that we hope the Marc Forster film can help out the brand itself for creative-ness once and for all.
