Transcript

Does this video really need a transcript? It doesn't really have voice acting and the Plot Summary sums it up anyways. User:ClockworkSpirit2343/TalkSignature December 9, 2014.

I also think it's not necessary, but let's see how will be the final decision. --File:User Tark sig.jpgFile:User Tark sig2.jpgFile:User Tark sig3.jpg 15:16, 9 December 2014 (PST)

Notes

It appears that the trivia stating how the Demoman destroys the cab is false. In the trailer, it almost looks like he simply was using the bombs to get the train moving, as the cab itself shows almost no sign of damage at the start. Should this be changed?

Do we really need a section that is effectively just pointing out what would have happened on a regular train? In my opinion it is quite irrelevant what normal safety measures exists, since this was a deliberate action. They would have gotten rid of stuff that would have prevented their plan.--Henke37 (talk) 04:56, 10 December 2014 (PST)

I agree. Pointing out really specific flaws is unnecessary. And anyways, the dead man brake thing isn't even a thing at the time the video takes place. "Older locomotives produced before 1995 do not carry this feature." ErnieTheGreatest (talk) 17:30, 10 December 2014 (PST)
Did you really have to wipe out that entire note? Air brakes were definitely available by 1900. 1230james (talk) 19:24, 12 December 2014 (PST)
Once again, we don't need to point out everything that happens on a real train. This is a fictional video, so why point out facts about a train in which no one really finds interesting? Ashes (talk) 19:28, 12 December 2014 (PST)
I've seen plenty of examples where flaws were pointed out, but no one really fusses about it. Then I look at this and you all say "this is fictional; no one cares." Whether it's fictional or not doesn't exactly prove anything. 1230james (talk) 19:33, 12 December 2014 (PST)
Yes flaws are pointed out, but we don't need literally half a page of "how a train/air brakes" operates. Henke does have a point regarding this, since well... if someone was really that interested on how a train operates realistically, they would look up themselves. Ashes (talk) 19:35, 12 December 2014 (PST)
They wouldn't look it up if nothing prompted them to look it up. I find it hard to imagine an average person watching the video, then suddenly decide to look up train facts. 1230james (talk) 07:06, 13 December 2014 (PST)
