Why it worked
The video likely worked due to the unexpected and humorous reveal of a beloved children's character in an unusual context, combined with the relatable "did I just see that?" moment captured by the on-screen text.
Summary
The video shows a car driving towards a train crossing. As the car gets closer, a familiar blue train engine, Thomas the Tank Engine, is revealed to be on the tracks. The on-screen text humorously questions if the character's eyes moved at the end.

Product placement
Thomas the Tank Engine (appears): A children's cartoon character, a blue train engine, appears on screen. Removing it would change what happens in the video.
