This is just my opinion, and I apologize in advance for being skeptical and realistic

I've seen that some would like the Culdee Fell Railway to appear on the Thomas & Friends TV series, but somehow, I doubt we will see Culdee or his fellow locomotives or stock in the TV series.

Why you may ask? Well, because of all the stringent safety precautions and limited traffic present on a mountain railway, it means there's hardly any story opportunities (unlike the North Western, Skarloey, and Arlesdale Railways), not to mention the fact that we only saw the CFR only once in the Railway Series.

So as much as some of us (me included) would like to see the CFR on TV, unless Andrew Brenner and the people at HIT can think of stories about the Mountain Engines as they seem to be doing with the Arlesdale Railway, I'm sticking with my theory that we won't be seeing Culdee and his pals in the TV series.

Yes, I know the Culdee Fell Railway gets a mention in the Blue Mountain Mystery DVD, but that doesn't count as an appearance.

Sorry to disappoint, fans of the Culdee Fell Railway.

PS - My premium membership time is running short. Can someone help out, please?

UPDATE: Another thing about the CFR engines I should mention - what's the idea of them having faces on their cabs? It's freaky! O_o

To be honest it wouldn't surprise me if they didn't bother ever making an appearance.
On the other hand as they cannot make up a decent story that has a realistic basis there would be no surprise if they did go and stick some of the characters into unbelievable scenarios.
