Harvey to the Rescue

**Harvey to the Rescue** is the third episode of the sixth season and the 135th episode overall.

## Plot

A new engine with a crane on his boiler named Harvey has arrived. He is being lowered to the rails by Cranky, who complains that Harvey is too heavy. Of course, Harvey did not like dangling from Cranky's arm either. Before the Fat Controller keeps him, he wants to see Harvey demonstrate his worth to the Railway Board. Unfortunately, the other engines do not like him due to his looks, and are very rude to him in the sheds. Harvey is upset by this, but Thomas feels sorry for Harvey and reassures him that the engines just need to take time to adjust to him. The next day, the Fat Controller sends his engines to work. Harvey still feels sad and tells the Fat Controller that he does not think he should have come to Sodor in the first place. The Fat Controller replies by saying that him being different that is what makes him special, which makes Harvey feel better.

Meanwhile, Percy has an accident with some trucks who get out of control and drag him. His driver applies the brakes but it is too late, as the Troublesome Trucks derail near the cricket field, blocking the road. Bertie is taking the Railway Board to the demonstration, but cannot get past the derailed trucks which angers him. The Fat Controller calls for Harvey who soon arrives to help, coincidentally creating a demonstration for the Railway Board. Harvey sorts out the accident scene so well, that the Board allows him to stay. Harvey is delighted, and even more when that night at the sheds all the other engines agree he is really useful just like Thomas said, and soon he is friends with all of them.

Caroline

**Caroline** is an elderly car formerly owned by a cricketer from the Elsbridge Cricket Club.

## Biography

Caroline enjoys taking leisurely drives along the beautiful Sudrian countryside. She dislikes being pushed along too fast, as it will overheat her engine. She is very calm in nature and appreciates the engines. She loves the occasional picnic where she is parked for the duration. She used to think railway engines were silly, until she discovered how they can save the wear and tear on her wheels.

Caroline first arrived on Sodor in 1928 and was once owned by a cricketer from the Elsbridge Cricket Club. In 1959, Stepney passed the Elsbridge Cricket Club when a batsman hit a ball that lands in one of his trucks. Unfortunately, Stepney and his crew do not hear the cricketers shout, so four of them pile into Caroline and race after them. At Hackenbeck, they find the missing ball, and, as Caroline is exhausted, Stepney transports them all back with Caroline on a flatbed and the cricketers in a brake van and stay to watch the match. Shortly after, the cricket players thought she was too old and restrictive for any future emergencies. So, while the Cricket Club bought a more modern car, Caroline was purchased by the crew at Elsbridge station. She now does a taxi service, taking a few passengers and their luggage to many destinations on branch line or even beyond, depending on the passengers’ request.

Caroline later helped Sir Bertram Topham Hatt to Lady Hatt's birthday, until she broke down again. She was then insulted by George, who later took Sir Bertram to Thomas until he had his own accident. Sir Bertram promised to get help for Caroline after he left.

## Basis

Caroline is based on a 1926 Morris Oxford Bullnose saloon.

## Livery

Caroline is painted red with black fenders, a gold radiator and a grey rooftop. Her name is written on her sides in white.

## Trivia

* Caroline is the first female Non Rail-Vehicle character to appear in the series.
* Her face design is a standard on cartoon cars (nose and mouth on the grill and eyes where her headlights would be).
Bill, Ben and Fergus

**Bill, Ben and Fergus** is the second episode of the seventh season and the 153rd episode overall.

## Plot

A small traction engine on rails named Fergus has been sent to work at Ffarquhar Quarry to help Mavis, Bill and Ben. On the way, Fergus stops at Wellsworth for a drink. There, Edward warns him about the twins, but Fergus states that he will not let them bother him.

When he arrives at the quarry, Mavis tells him that the trucks are in a mess, but Fergus promises to sort them out. But Bill and Ben are full of mischief, and decide to have some fun. Bill slams his trucks very hard, causing some of his load to fall onto the tracks. Fergus angrily orders him to do it right, but Bill is annoyed and tells him not to interfere. Later, Ben pushes his trucks across some points, so that Fergus cannot leave his siding. He orders Ben to move them, but Ben just grins and keeps him trapped.

The workmen are soon blasting rock, so Fergus tells the twins to wait for the all-clear signal. But they are fed up with his orders, and crossly tell him to keep his funnel out of the quarry. Then they leave to collect a rock crusher from Knapford Harbour, leaving Fergus in peace with Mavis.

At the harbour, the twins are still grumbling about Fergus. They decide that the next time he tells them to do it right, they will do it wrong intentionally. Bill and Ben collect the rock crusher and head back to the quarry.

When they arrive, Fergus warns them that the rock face is unsafe, and not to go near it. But once again Bill and Ben are being naughty, and deliberately push the rock crusher alongside the cliff as roughly as they can, which starts a rockslide. Fergus charges forward and pushes the twins out of the way. His driver jumps clear, but Fergus ends up buried. Everyone works hard to dig Fergus out, and no one works harder to help him than Bill and Ben. When Fergus is free, Bill and Ben shamefully apologize. Fergus accepts their apology, and all three agree to do things right together.

Alaric

**Alaric** is a narrow gauge mountain-climbing engine who works on the Culdee Fell Railway. Like the other mountain engines, he has his own coach used for passenger services.

## Biography

Not much is known about Alaric's personality, though he is described as being "nice and quiet". It can also be assumed that he is careful and cautious like the other mountain engines.

Alaric was built at the Swiss Locomotive and Machine Works in Winterthur, Switzerland in 1962 to the latest "superheated" design. He arrived on Sodor allowing Shane Dooiney to be sent away for an overhaul.

Alaric was later mentioned in a conversation between Ernest, Wilfred, and Culdee. According to them, Alaric is "nice and quiet", whereas Lord Harry is a "terror".

By 1962, Lord Harry and Alaric proved successful and superseded the older engines, Ernest and Wilfred.

## Basis

Alaric is based on No. 7 Ralph, an engine who worked on the Snowdon Mountain Railway.

## Livery

Alaric is painted in orange with purple lining. His number (7) is painted on the sides and back of his cab in yellow and he has a red name plate with a gold border on the sides of his tanks with his name (Alaric) on them, also in gold. His buffer beams are painted red.

Coal

**Coal** is the nineteenth episode of the first season. It is based on the story of the same name from the sixth Railway Series book, Henry the Green Engine.

## Plot

One morning, Henry wakes up feeling very ill. He complains about it to James, who grumpily shrugs it off as Henry being lazy. The Fat Director is also unhappy about this, given that this is the latest in a long line of problems with Henry and not even new parts or paint seem to help. He warns Henry that if he does not get better soon, then he will have to be replaced, to the grief of him and his crew.

Later, as Henry prepares to take his first train, the Fat Director, determined to get to the bottom of Henry's problems, decides to ride along in the cab having changed out of his usual suit into a crewman's uniform. Henry manages to start, but the fireman is not pleased and notes that Henry's firebox is not producing adequate heat. As a result, Henry quickly loses steam, and has to rest in a siding when he reaches Wellsworth Station, leaving Edward to take care of the train. Henry's crew and the Fat Director continue to investigate what the problem is, and they discover that the coal provided is unsuitable for him, made worse by the low amount they have been receiving lately. While the other engines have big fireboxes, Henry's is too small to make the amount of heat needed for him to run properly. However, if Henry had Welsh coal, he would easily improve. Although the Welsh coal will be expensive, the Fat Director agrees that Henry deserves a fair chance and sends for James to collect some.

When the coal arrives, the fireman carefully stokes up Henry's fire to give the best possible results. Henry initially has his doubts, but his mood changes as he comes into the platform with more than enough steam. The Fat Director is happy to see that Henry is feeling well, and warns the driver not to push him. The driver assures the Fat Director not to worry, as Henry would not need pushing, but would have to be held back. Henry has a pleasant journey with his passenger train and for the first time, he makes it to Elsbridge before Thomas. When Thomas arrives, Henry calls him "lazybones" before quickly running off, paying Thomas back for insulting him before. Thomas, too surprised to be cross, reacts with disbelief & Annie and Clarabel agree with him.

Harold and the Flying Horse

**Harold and the Flying Horse** is the eleventh episode of the seventh season and the 162nd episode overall.

## Plot

The Vicar is holding his annual Summer fête and the engines are busy helping. Harold wants to help, but he has to continue with his safety patrol. When Edward delivers deck chairs, decorations and tables, he reminds everyone to come to the fête, including Harold. Harold thanks Edward, but he declines because of his patrolling, and he flies off to Dryaw Airfield to refuel. When he arrives, he sees Pegasus the carthorse getting ready for the fête to give rides to the children. It leaves Harold even more left out and he wishes he could help.

Thomas arrives at Dryaw to pick up passengers to take to the fête. Harold asks Thomas where he was going, and he answers that everyone is going to the fête. Harold replies that he is the only one not going since he is on duty. Thomas says kindly that being a rescue helicopter is important, but Harold says no one needs saving.

However, he gets an emergency call from the Fat Controller that Pegasus is stuck in a ditch and the children will be disappointed if he does not get to the party. After Harold leaves, Percy says that Pegasus is a funny name for a horse. The Fat Controller tells Percy that it is the name of a flying horse from "a very old story," but Percy thinks he is being clever and points out that horses cannot fly.

Harold arrives to the rescue, where Thomas is waiting. Thomas tells Harold that while they were loading the cart, Pegasus ran into the ditch and got stuck. Thomas leaves to take the cart to the fête and Harold winches Pegasus out and lifts him into the air. When Percy sees Pegasus, he thinks that Pegasus is flying and the children cheer. Pegasus is hitched to the cart, the fête begins and Harold is hailed as a hero at the fête afterwards.

Hank

**Hank** is a North American tender engine who competed in the Great Railway Show for the Strongest Engine competition.

## Biography

Hank is large, and bold. While he may come across as brash in his cheery confidence and enthusiasm, Hank is used to being easily seen or heard. In his jolliness, he may seem a little goofy and kooky, especially with so many bells and whistles and a cowcatcher, but Hank has a big heart and is more than happy to lend a helping hand. Using his might, strength, and power to assist others is something that only comes all too naturally to him and he takes it in his stride, without second thought. Hank can become concerned about his friends though, as he gladly keeps an eye out for the other little engines. The only trouble with being Hank is that virtually every engine is smaller than him.

## Basis

Hank is based on a Pennsylvania Railroad (PR) K4s Class Pacific.

## Livery

Hank is painted ultramarine blue with red wheels, lining and a cowcatcher in front. This livery represents the colours/colors of the flag of the United States of America. His smokebox and cab roof are painted dark grey.

## Trivia

* Unlike in the official TV series, where he had a lead role in the episode Heave Ho, Thomas!, Hank only appeared as a background character in The Great Race in the Sodor Stories series.
* Although Rosie was the first engine in the television series to be based on an American locomotive, Hank was the first one to actually be recognised as such.
Bertie’s Chase

**Bertie's Chase** is the third episode of the second season and the 33rd episode overall. It is based on the story of the same name from the ninth Railway Series book, Edward the Blue Engine.

## Plot

One morning, Edward is waiting at Elsbridge to pick up passengers from Thomas’ train and is growing impatient. His fireman gets up on the cab roof, but says he can only see Bertie, who is likely carrying tourists. With no sign of Thomas, they just leave the station. As they do, Bertie pulls up to the road station above, shouting that he has Thomas' passengers on board since Thomas' fireman is absent, but neither Edward nor his crew hear him. Bertie's driver tells him that they must keep their promise to Thomas and they start to chase Edward.

Bertie tries to catch up with Edward, but to no avail. He soon finally reaches the road bridge and sees Edward at Wellsworth, stopped at the level crossing. Bertie tears down the hill at top speed, but the crossing gates close and Edward puffs away just as Bertie comes into the yard.

Bertie is now both very upset and tired. He apologises to the passengers, who tell him not to worry and encourage him to start after Edward again. Bertie is not so sure, but his driver says that there is a good chance of catching Edward, as Bertie can climb hills better than him. After checking with the stationmaster, Bertie sets off again.

As they carry on, Edward comes to a hill. The coaches start grumbling, but soon they reach the top. Still oblivious about Bertie, they run smoothly into Suddery. The guard blows his whistle, but as the driver looks back, he cannot see a green flag. Suddenly, Bertie comes into the station, and the stationmaster tells the driver and guard what happened. Edward apologises to Bertie, who claims everything was his fault. The passengers board the train and cheer for Bertie, while Edward says goodbye and continues with his journey. Bertie heads off to tell Thomas that all is well. Thomas is grateful to Bertie and thanks him for being such a good friend.

Brenda

Brenda is a maroon bus who has been working on the Brendam Peninsula of the Island of Sodor since 1933. She is owned by Sodor Roadways and some of her passengers are a guaranteed connection with the express.

## Biography

Not much is known of Brenda's personality, apart from her close friendship with Edward.

In 1956, Duck took the injured sailor to Suddery station where Brenda was waiting to take him to hospital. She compliments Duck for being splendid.

In 1962, Edward got a dent in his boiler after a crane accidentally swung a huge ship’s boiler around hurriedly. So while Edward was sent away to be mended, Brenda was to takeover his job of taking the Brass Band to Rolf’s Castle for a concert. But after a big storm swept the Island, Brenda’s regular route was flooded, and she ended up stuck in a muddy shortcut.

Later, in autumn 1963, Emily and James took turns pulling the express, while Gordon was away on a railtour on the Mainland. But on James’ turn, Brenda got a flat tyre on the way to Wellsworth and had to be fitted with a spare. This made James impatient waiting for her, and so he puffed away to make up for lost time, only moments before she finally pulled into the car park.

## Basis

Brenda is based on a Leyland Tiger TS4 bus.

## Livery

Brenda is painted maroon and cream with a white stripe on both sides.

## Appearances

### Season 3

* All at Sea
* Bulgy (episode) (*mentioned)*

## Trivia

* The idea of Brenda’s creation came from the plot point in the official TV series version of As Good as Gordon, where Bertie the Bus is a guaranteed connection with the express at Maithwaite. This made no sense, since the express never serves a Ffarquhar Branch Line station, with the exception of Elsbridge, and Bertie was never a guaranteed connection with the express before and after that episode. So, it would’ve made more sense for the train to be connected to a bus service at one of it’s usual stops: Wellsworth.
* Brenda’s name came from the fact it sounds so similar to (one letter away from) Brendam.
Halloween

**Halloween** is the thirteenth episode of the eighth season and the 186th episode overall.

## Plot

It is Halloween and the engines excitingly hurry to finish their work. That evening at Tidmouth Sheds, the Fat Controller tells Thomas and Emily to pick up a delivery of iron from the Ironworks. Percy, worried for them, warns them to watch out for ghosts, though Thomas and Emily both tell Percy ghosts do not exist before setting off.

On their way there, Thomas and Emily discuss what is scarier: ghosts or the Ironworks. By the time they get there, night has fallen, and both are spooked by the jagged steel and twisted scrap. Unbeknownst to them, 'Arry and Bert are hiding behind the Breakdown Train and plan to scare them knowing they are afraid. Moaning and bumping a flatbed, they successfully scare Thomas and Emily, who race to the main shed. Both start to wonder if there *are* ghosts as they enter the Ironworks shed where the chains, falling sparks, several noises and shadows from the grabber make it scarier. Thomas tries to stay as brave as he can, but it's no use. As Emily turns around on a turntable to shunt trucks, a big wave of sparks causes a white tarpaulin to fall onto her, though she is convinced a ghost has got her. Emily races away while Thomas - who is in front of her on the same track - races away too believing she's the ghost. As both engines rush out of the Ironworks shed, 'Arry and Bert see them, get frightened thinking Emily is the ghost, and also run away with Thomas and Emily following right behind them.

All four engines frantically race through the spooky wooded area and through Cronk Abbey at high speed, heading towards Tidmouth Sheds. As they approach, the other engines are asleep when a blast from Thomas' whistle wakes them all up. Percy tells them to stop before they crash. Thomas, 'Arry and Bert apply their brakes and stop just in time before they crash into some trucks. While Thomas informs him of what is happening, Emily steams under a signal gantry causing the tarpaulin to fly off of her, much to Percy’s delight. The engines are no longer scared, but they feel foolish. After the Fat Controller arrives in his pajamas and comes to see what is going on, Bert admits the trouble he and 'Arry caused and they are sent back to the Ironworks to do Thomas and Emily's work as well as their own as punishment.

Nowadays, whenever Thomas or Emily return to the Ironworks, they know there is nothing to be scared of and that ghosts do not exist... or do they?

Dirty Objects

**Dirty Objects** is the twenty-fifth episode of the first season. It is based on the story of the same name from the seventh Railway Series book, Toby the Tram Engine.

## Plot

Toby and Henrietta are enjoying their new lives on the Island of Sodor, but because of their paintwork and old-fashioned appearances, James often mocks them and calls them "dirty objects." One day, Toby asks why James is red and James says that it is because he is a splendid engine who is never dirty. Toby then teases James by reminding him of the time he needed bootlaces to mend a hole in his coaches, and James leaves the station angry.

Later, at the end of the line, James leaves his coaches behind and stops at several stations to pick up trucks for a slow goods train at each station, which he despises. Although the trucks initially behave well, James is so rough with them that they decide to pay him back. At the top of Gordon's Hill, James should have remembered to have his brakes pinned down, given his previous accident with trucks, but he is too busy thinking of what he will say back to Toby. Seizing the opportunity, the trucks push James down the hill. Unable to stop, James flies through Maron Station and crashes into a line of tar tankers. Although James is not badly hurt, he is left completely covered in tar, while the tankers and some of his trucks are destroyed.

As Percy and Toby arrive at the scene, they both tease James, pretending not to recognise him due to his dirty paint. They take James back to Tidmouth Sheds where the Fat Director is waiting. He commends Percy and Toby for their hard work and tells James he needs to be cleaned immediately. The Fat Director rewards Toby with a new coat of paint and accepts his request that Henrietta have one too. Toby happily runs off to tell Henrietta the good news, while James watches in silence, knowing full well that he is now the "dirty object."

Down the Drain

**Down the Drain** is the second episode of the twelfth season and the 257th episode overall. It is based on the story of the same name from the thirty-third Railway Series book, Thomas and the Twins.

## Plot

Near the China Clay Pits is a dip in the land which is often flooded with water from the nearby sea. One wet day, Ben is taking some trucks to Brendam Docks when the strong wind blows a wave into the cab, dousing his fire. His fireman asks Thomas to help, and he pulls Ben away from the water.

Edward, Trevor and the Really Useful Party

**Edward, Trevor and the Really Useful Party** is the fourteenth episode of the third season and the 74th episode overall. It is based on the magazine stories Edward and the Vicar and The Vicar's Fête.

## Plot

Trevor tells Edward that the Vicar is organising a garden party to fund a trip to the seaside for underprivileged children and Trevor will be the party's main attraction. Edward wishes he could help, but he knows he cannot be much help without his rails. Although he wants to be helpful like Trevor, his driver replies that he is helpful in his own way, which is on the Fat Director's railway.

The next day, it is Trevor's turn to look worried; the Vicar had been so busy setting up the party that he has forgotten to put posters up. Edward suggests an idea by having the Vicar paste the posters on him and his coaches to attract a lot of guests wherever he goes. The driver gives the idea to the Fat Director, who agrees. Sure enough, many people become attracted and decide to attend the Vicar's garden party.

Later that afternoon, Trevor is resting in the orchard shed. Bertie arrives and teases Trevor about his advanced age and announces that he will also be at the garden party bringing more guests there. Bertie then brags that not many people will want to ride on an old-fashioned traction engine after having traveled on him. Trevor ignores Bertie, knowing that the party would still be a success regardless.

The party takes place the next day, but the orchard's ground is sodden from an earlier overnight downpour. Trevor knows that rain and mud will not spoil his day as they will stay on the road to prevent an accident. He soon puffs up and down the country lane giving a lot of children rides. Eventually, Bertie arrives bringing guests to the party and tells Trevor that Edward's idea has been a success. In reply, Trevor gives Bertie a cheerful whistle and makes his way back to the orchard. But Bertie gets stuck in the mud while attempting to drop his passengers off at the party. Fortunately, Terence is also there and quickly helps to get him out, joking that *he* is the one supposed to be ploughing fields and Trevor notes that Bertie's boastfulness has caught up with him and has now learned his lesson to never try and go off road. Once back on the road, Bertie thanks Trevor and apologizes to him and the party is a success.

That evening, the Vicar thanks Edward and his crew for helping attract a lot of guests. Edward feels very pleased and Really Useful, while Trevor falls happily asleep knowing that all the underprivileged children will finally be able to visit the seaside.

Hannah

**Hannah** is a "hasty" coach that once travelled with Toby. She is Henrietta's wacky sister.

## Biography

Hannah is rowdy, excitable and near-maniacal, loving to fly down the line at high speeds. However, after tagging along with James and nearly being torn apart, Hannah learned her lesson about going too fast, but her impatience failed to subside. Because of how she likes to get things done fast, her sister often calls her "Hasty Hannah."

## Basis

Hannah is based on a Great Eastern Railway (GER) Wisbech and Upwell Tramway 4-wheel coach. Henrietta is also based on this coach.

## Livery

Hannah is painted amber with red bufferbeams, black handrails and a grey rooftop.

## Trivia

* Hannah's model is a modified version of Henrietta with the only changes being her bodywork (which is painted amber) and an added tail-lamp on her side, which Henrietta does not have.
* Hannah shares two traits with The Troublesome Trucks; they both like going fast, and they are both rolling stock.
Dunkin’ Duncan

**Dunkin' Duncan** is the sixteenth episode of the sixth season and the 148th episode overall.

## Plot

Rusty, Rheneas, and Skarloey are sent to the slate quarry to help Duncan with an important job. Duncan has a bad habit of being so impatient to get back to Crovan’s Gate that this often gets him in trouble with many accidents. Rusty hopes that Duncan will stay out of trouble, but Duncan is already impatient and acts rudely towards the others. Skarloey and Rheneas do not like Duncan telling them what to do. But Rusty tells them that he just wants to get back to the bustle of Crovan's Gate.

Duncan wants everyone to work faster, but Rusty and Rheneas tell him that they are proper engines and that they follow the rules. Duncan still tells them to work faster, so he shows the others how fast a useful engine can work by biffing one slate truck after another. Rusty warns Duncan that slate trucks will pay him back for being biffed, but he simply doesn't care, claiming he can handle slate trucks. The engines see that Duncan will not listen, so they leave the incline with their trucks of slate.

Duncan pushes the trucks around and while shunting some empties at the incline, he boasts how he'll show the other engines how he'll get the job done. His driver warns him that he is asking for trouble, and he gets it. His coupling gets tangled with the truck in front of him. The winch hauls the trucks and Duncan up the slope. Duncan's driver jumps out before he gets hurt. Rusty returns in time to see everything and is not pleased to see it, but his driver reassures him that engines like Duncan never listen to advice. Duncan is too heavy for the winch and the chain breaks, causing Duncan to slide down and out the incline, through Rheneas Station and crash into the river near the waterfall, much to Rusty's horror.

After Duncan is pulled out, the Thin Controller scolds him for his irresponsibility and carelessness and demands that he apologize to the other engines. Duncan does so, and as punishment, he will work at the slate quarry once he is repaired until he learns to be patient and careful.

Another Fine Mess

## Plot

Thomas is bringing Ned to a demolition site, which Ned is excited as he gets to demolish a building. Thomas finds it confusing that Miss Jenny's machines find it exciting to knock buildings down. Once there, Ned is excited to knock down the building. However, he gets disappointed when he finds out that Oliver is given the task, and instead has to clear rubble.

Oliver prepares to knock down a wall with a wrecking ball, but the wall does not collapse as it does not work. He swings harder, but the wall still doesn't fall down. He is fitted with a larger one, but it does not work either. Meanwhile, Ned asks the foreman if he can help, but despite Oliver's attempts that keep failing, he declines by saying that it is Oliver's job. With that, Ned goes back to loading rubble, but he drops it onto the ground instead of the trucks because he is thinking about demolishing.

Back at Oliver, the workmen fit him with the biggest wrecking ball they have, but still to no avail. Oliver is very cross, and his operator and the foreman are running out of ideas. Ned is still thinking about demolishing and does not pay attention. He collides with the chimney, which collapses onto the building with the wall that Oliver cannot demolish. While the workmen cheer, pieces of debris start falling onto and denting Oliver's roof, the corner of the destroyed building falls down, and Thomas is surprised to see his trucks fully loaded with bricks from the building's destruction. Ned is happy that he demolished the building, and asks Oliver if he wants him to demolish anything else. Oliver, covered in dust and frustrated, tells him that he thinks he has done enough for one day.

Escape

**Escape** is the eighteenth episode of the third season and the 78th episode overall. It is based on the stories Escape and Little Western from the twenty-third Railway Series book, Enterprising Engines.

## Plot

One day, Edward is talking to Trevor when Douglas steams past and scolds Edward for talking instead of working, much to the latter's annoyance. Edward later meets Douglas again and tells him that both he and Trevor have a lot in common as they were both nearly scrapped. The mere mention of the word makes Douglas shudder. Edward continues, explaining how Trevor is now Really Useful, but thinks that the railway could use another steam engine, to which Douglas agrees.

Later that night, Douglas has taken a goods train to a faraway part of the Island where only the diesels work. He is shunting for his return journey when he hears a hiss of steam. He pauses, and hears the hiss again. A voice comes from nearby, asking if he belongs to the Fat Director. The engine reveals himself as Oliver, who has run away from being scrapped with his brake van Toad, but has run out of coal. Douglas is still nervous at hearing the word "scrap," but then remembers Edward's story about Trevor. Douglas' crew work hard to rescue Oliver and Toad. Douglas begins the journey by running tender-first of bringing the two to the Fat Director's railway. Just before they clear the station, a foreman and his watchdog stop them. Douglas' driver explains that Oliver and Toad belong to them, and although wary at first, the foreman lets them continue. It is daylight when they finally arrive. Douglas' driver finds a place at the works for Oliver, who thanks them all.

The next day, Douglas tells the engines all about Oliver. They think Douglas should tell the Fat Director about him at once, just as he arrives. He explains that unless a steam engine is saved from scrap, there is little hope to find one. Luckily, the Fat Director already knows about Oliver and decides that he will work on Duck's branch line. Oliver and Toad are restored, and painted in Great Western colours. The other engines laugh and call the branch line "The Little Western" at first, but it delights Duck and Oliver.

Bad Day at Castle Loch

**Bad Day at Castle Loch** is the nineteenth episode of the seventh season and the 170th episode overall.

## Plot

Donald and Douglas enjoy working on Sodor, but sometimes they long to return to Scotland. One day, they arrive at the docks, where the Fat Controller tells them that Lord Callan is reopening his castle and the twins are to take banners, bunting and bagpipes to the castle for the celebrations. Donald and Douglas are excited, as going to the Scottish castle would be like going home. Harvey tells Percy that the celebrations will be near Castle Loch, which worries Percy. Douglas teases Percy, asking if he thinks the monster who supposedly lives in the loch might catch him. Donald agrees, until Douglas reveals he was just joking and does not believe the monster really exists. Donald insists it does, and the twins argue as they set off.

The twins take their train along the line and spot the castle in the distance, but they have to stop suddenly to avoid hitting a tree that has fallen across their track. Then, to make matters worse, a landslide behind them knocks the brake van off the rails, leaving the train stranded. Douglas' driver calls the Fat Controller, who promises to send help as soon as possible.

But by nightfall, no help has arrived. Suddenly, the twins see a very strange shape coming towards them through the mist. Douglas thinks it is the monster, but as it reaches them, the shape turns out to be Harvey pushing the breakdown train; Donald and Douglas are very relieved.

By morning, the tracks are clear, and Donald and Douglas make their way to the castle. Lord Callan and the Fat Controller both call them very splendid and useful engines, to which the twins heartily agree.
