## Differences Between the main timeline and this timeline

* As the name implies, Top Hat, Zorran, Zak, Zelda, Zug, Zeus, Zilly, Billy Shoepack, Sally Seaplane, Kirke, Zion, Mr. Oscar Krieger, Captain Zero, Hans, Otto, Nightshade, Oleander, Foxglove and Mr. Jebediah Broke all survive WWII. However:
	+ Zorran has an eyepatch over his right eye following the warehouse explosion.
	+ Captain Zero has a shot wound to the leg and is wheelchair bound.
	+ Billy Shoepack has amnesia.
	+ Mr. Oscar Krieger has a permeant limp.
* Hans, Otto, Nightshade, Oleander, Foxglove, Corona, Zak and Zeus all end up in the Soviet Union to hide away with Mr. Jebediah Broke. Unfortunately for them, he eventually dies of old age and they have to duck and hide, with the help of "business pals". They eventually wind up in the UK and hide in a shed as they run out of luck. This is where Addison finds them when she's an adult.
* Ariel and Venus join the Z-Stacks to replace Zak and Zeus, and Penny also joins them.
* Zion and Zelda join Lucky's Yard.
	+ Zelda also survives the fire from the TUGS prequel series, and had been living in the next port over for several years. She refused to go back when she heard Captain Zero didn't want to hear her name again. But when she heard many of the tugs almost died, she felt she had to go back and check on them.
* Kirke joins Little Owl and Puffa on the Indian Valley Railroad.
* Sunshine/Zug and Sally/Moonlight end up getting together, while Top Hat and Zelda reunite for real.
	+ Zion ends up with Penny, while Zip ends up with Hank.

## Trivia

* If Rachel Ravens had done these stories on her own, she wouldn't have killed off the characters at all.
* Like its Prime Timeline counterpart, *Saving Bigg City* was uploaded into two parts due to its length, but is still counted as one whole story.
* An epilogue was uploaded on the same day as Retirement to both Deviantart and FanFiction, but isn't included in the episode count.
