Paint The Town Red is the final episode of Mr. Conductor's Thomas Tales and the series finale of Shining Time Station.

Plot

Mr. Conductor wakes up one morning and tells Missy that he feels it's time to change the color of his door to change up his every day routine. He paints the doors in various different colors and patterns such as green, blue, striped and polka dots, with each color reminding him of a certain engine. Finally, he paints his door to its original red color as he feels it wouldn't feel like home without it. Mr. Conductor and Missy head inside to turn on the radio to listen to a song.

Trivia

  • At one point of the episode, Mr. Conductor says to his pet dog Missy, "I once knew a man, who said there was no blue food!" This is a self-reference by George Carlin, referencing his 1978 HBO On Location special, "George Carlin Again!"
  • This marks the final appearance of George Carlin's incarnation of Mr. Conductor. A new incarnation played by Alec Baldwin would replace him (due to Carlin focusing on his comedy career) in Thomas and the Magic Railroad.
  • As the final Mr. Conductor's Thomas Tales episode, it marks the final instance of any media wholly dedicated to Shining Time Station, and the final use of said show's original theme music.
