It appears this new Thomas destroys Ferraris faster than the origina TMl!

They are sure looking for the ratings with all of this action!
Watching the trailer we see the ROBIN 2 - 488 get shredded with gunfire and then ROBIN 1 - 308 being destroyed over a cliff in a far fetched, WAY over the top scene (keep it real Lenkov).

Then there is a quick glimpse of a black ROBIN 3 Ferrari near the end of the trailer with no damage (so far). Two Ferraris in one episode a new record.
You never know in what order all of these clips take place, but assuming it plays out like the trailer and it looks that way, then I'm thinking ROBIN 1 is only making this one appearance as a salute to the original MPI. I know the 308 was destroyed in at least two episodes in the original series and brought back to life, but I'm thinking it will not be happening in the reboot. It made an appearance, got destroyed and that is the end of the 308. It will be interesting to see what they do in future episodes with the 488 lic. plate though......will it stay as ROBIN 2 or be changed to ROBIN 1 (assuming the 308 is not coming back) or do they leave the ROBIN 2 plate on the 488 and "retire" the ROBIN 1 plate to the rafters as tip of the hat to the original. I hope it's the latter. Note in the original series, they did change the 308 lic. plate after the first episode so who knows. If Lenkov is a TRUE fan he will
not swap the ROBIN 1 and 2 plates on the 488!
