Although I'm not really into the Thomas and Friends series anymore as a whole, due to being grown up, I still have happy memories of when I was still into the series. And I still like the engine prototypes the characters are based on.
But anyway, I was inspired by PercyandDuckfan94's UK and US narrator episode crossovers to make a list of which narrator I would use for which character, should I ever make my own.
I had always been rather critical towards the fact that PercyandDuckfan94 used much more of the US narrations than the UK narrations, given that Thomas and Friends is a UK series. My own adaption ideas listed below use more of the UK narrations, which is particularly helped by choosing the UK narrations for the lines provided by 'the narrator' of each episode, as well as the majority of the main characters.
It's unlikely that I will ever make UK and US narrator episode crossovers for real, because like I said, I'm not really into Thomas and Friends anymore. But here is a list anyway.
