Diesel 10's Reign

The Cursed Tapestry once granted Diesel 10 the wish to rule Sodor. He thus went by the title His Excellency Diesel 10, Oily Overlord, Onslaught I. Many engines and even the colormen tried to overthrow him, but whenever they did, it was revealed to be a dream.
He was ultimately overthrown when the Unicorn saw that Diesel 10 had abused his wish. So the Unicorn undid the wish, and wiped Diesel 10's memory of the events, restoring the Island of Sodor to normal.
Because most of this story arc was composed of "dreams" it is unknown precisely how long Diesel 10 reigned, but it was probably about 2 weeks.
==Trivia==
*Diesel 10's dreams included: Him and Diesel being lifted up off the model Island by Mr. Mitton, the man who watches over the Island of Sodor where the engines live, and being sent to the "reject room" with Bash, Dash, Ferdinand, Dennis and Billy until they learn how to behave; Thomas waking up in his branch line shed as if nothing had happened and going about his business; The Autistic community, angered by the destruction of their beloved show, forming an angry mob and casting Diesel 10 into the sea by throwing him off a cliff; D261 deciding to betray Diesel 10, Bear gaining a claw of his own and challenging D10 for dominance; D10 watching the Colormen and Colorwomen fight on TV before realizing engines don't watch TV; D10 being banished to Misty Island, where he adopts Bash; and Hank, Edward, James and Emily escaping to the mainland.
*As part of taking back the wish, Diesel 10's mind was not only wiped, but the Unicorn also altered his mind to make him think that he worked at the scrapyards, loading scrap into cars with his claw and shunting them.  How he eventually "snapped out of it" and became the free-roaming engine of Sodor we know again, is unknown.
*D10 returned in the War of the Shards, helping Diesel 11 and Diesel 12. He also helped restore Diesel 1, and went with the Numbered Diesels on a world tour to rival the Steam Team's, but got stuck at Hangar 18. His role in this story arc was never mentioned therein. He also presumably joined the other NWR engines at the First Battle of Sodor, though he was not mentioned by name.
