* Sometime in February: Ten Cents, Sunshine and Grampus work together to rescue Sea Rogue and O'Malley from Flotsam and Jetsam. Flotsam and Jetsam are executed by the Final Firing.
* Sometime in April: While Warrior and Hercules are called to deal with a mayday up the coast, and Ten Cents has to deliver some fuel to Mittsville, Zug and the rest of the Stars get trapped by an old tramper Up River. Billy Shoepack blows them out with dynamite, and traps Zorran on some rocks.
* July 4th: Grampus joins the Star Fleet as #8 after being decommissioned by the Navy and rescued by the Star Tugs from being blown up.
* Sometime in July: Top Hat and Lord Stinker manage to rescue Puffa and Little Owl from an incident Zak caused with the Rail Bridge. Little Owl develops gratitude to Top Hat but a grudge against the Z-Stacks. Warrior and Big Mac manage to win the Steal Contract against Zak and Zebedee.
* Sometime in August: Captain Zero buys Zeus, Zob and Zilly as an attempt to play catchup to Captain Star. O.J. almost considers scrap after an incident with Felicia, but Ten Cents gets him to change his mind. O.J. saves Ten Cents from Quarantine the same day, and Zeus ends up being quarantined for 40 days.
* Sometime in November: Zeus attempts to poison Hercules with bad coal so he can tow in Kraka-Toa, but that just gets him in trouble with Captain Zero. Ten Cents and Warrior are able to track Zeus down. Ten Cents saves Hercules from sparking Kraka-Toa, and Sunshine saves O.J. from being bumped by the tramper.
* Sometime in December: The Tugs compete for contracts in the cold weather, and they nearly miss out on looking after the SS Vienna due to Zip and Zug's decision to block Ten Cents and Sunshine in the cannel with a fire barge. But thankfully, they get out in time and Warrior saves the day.
* Sir Bertram Topham Hatt and Lowham Miller Hatt were born.
* Ryan and Roxanne were built.

### 1922

* Sometime in February: While logging Up River, Sunshine is trapped in the log jam. Billy Shoepack blasts her out, but the logs cause trouble for Uptown. Thankfully, Warrior comes up with an idea to save the day.
* Sometime in March: Boomer arrives in Bigg City and anything that can go wrong, does go wrong. He is eventually rebuilt to a houseboat, and is far more content with life.
* Sometime in June: Warrior and Big Mac compete with Zorran, Zebedee and Zak for the Rock Contract. Because of Zip and Zug's awful behaviour, the Z-Stacks lost the Contract to the Stars once again. Big Mac, Warrior and Ten Cents work together to save Izzy Gomez from capsizing, who came in without a tow - which is illegal.
* Sometime in September: Zebedee has a run in with Johnny Cuba and is very scared of what he might do to him. During this time, he is also assisted by Ten Cents when he looses a barge, he assists Ten Cents and Sunshine with Scuttlebutt Pete, and he assists Ten Cents, Big Mac, O.J., Warrior, Hercules and Sunshine with docking the Princess Alice. Hercules then later helps Zebedee capture Johnny Cuba and hand him to the authorities.
* Sometime in October: Sea Rogue helps the Stars out with the munitions contract, while the Z-Stacks have the explosives contract. Both would have gone without a hitch if Bluenose hadn't of bumped one of the barges causing a fire. Zob, Zebedee, Zorran, Sea Rogue and most of the Stars help to put it out, and Ten Cents almost dies. Thanks to Grampus, he's saved. Zak was forced to help put out the fire, and Top Hat cowered out of the emergency. Big Mickey the crane operator sadly dies, alongside 125 other induvials. Bluenose was executed via Final Firing and his remains were taken out for Target Practice.
* Sometime in December: Ten Cents, Big Mac, O.J., Warrior, Hercules, Sunshine, Zorran, Zebedee, Zob and Sea Rogue all get presented with medals for their bravery during the fire. The white fleet were on the trail of an iceberg, and only Hercules and Zob know the truth. All the rest of the tugs saw them and were spooked. Much trauma surfaces after the Munitions fire and they seek out consoling from Captain Lucky.
* Julie was built.
* Luke was built.
* Alfred was destroyed.

### 1923

* Sometime in February: Jimbo the Diesel Tug was built and trialled, but the tugs think he's to replace them. This isn't the case as he was sold to the Navy to replace the deceased Bluenose.
* Sometime in May: Porter, Henney and Kirke join Puffa and Little Owl on the Dockside Railway. Kirke is a bit snarky and troublesome, but he eventually seeks out consoling from Captain Lucky and rescues Puffa when he breaks down.
* Sometime in July: Hercules recounts his story to Jimbo of how he joined the Star Fleet.
* The Big Four grouping act was passed.
* Lady Jane Hatt was born.
* 31 July: Marvin was built. Little did anyone, even Marvin, realise that the engine who was "born", was actually a girl.
* Stuart was built and arrived on Sodor.

### 1924

* Sometime in January: Thanks to some thick fog, Zip, Zug and Zilly mistake O.J. for an old boat they were to take to Burke and Blair's yard. The Stars are in a panic and try to find him. It's Top Hat, Big Mac, Sunshine, Peeper Pipes and Captain Star who rescue him in the end; and Top Hat has redeemed himself in the eyes of the other Star Tugs. Zebedee and Zob also get in to help with the search. Zip, Zug and Zilly want to do the right thing, but Zak and Zeus threaten to kill them with an 'accidental Final Firing'. Because of this, Zak and Zeus are docked for the rest of the year.
* Sometime in July: Zip and Zug steal barges from Big Mac and Sunshine, causing even more distrust between the Z-Stacks and the Star Tugs. A tramper rushes into Lillie, and Zob and Zebedee go to help repair her. Zip and Zug try and get help to move the tramper, but the Stars don't listen. They then ask Warrior and Hercules, who decide to help (reluctantly). This act was able to help build up trust again, and Zip and Zug became better tugs from then on.
* Sometime in September: The tugs and the engines of the Dockside Railway need help loading grain, so Lexi, Placido and Maeve are brought in to help the engines, and Bulstrode was brought to help the tugs. The engines were friendly enough, but Bulstrode was no help at all. The engines were given a fond farewell, but Bulstrode was not. The Z-Stacks and Stars also start getting along really well.
* Jinty was built.

### 1925

* Sometime in Jaunary: An earthquake happens and Captain Zero hurts his leg. Captain Star helps get him to hospital and Captain Lucky runs the Z-Stacks until further notice. Zilly ultimately proves his worth when he saves Davy Jones from a collapsing building. Captain Zero praises Zilly.

### 1928

* Sometime in July: Captain Star goes on vacation, leaving Captain Lucky to run the Star Tugs. With Hercules up the coast, and O.J., Big Mac and Sunshine Up River, Ariel and Penny are chartered to help the Stars. Penny is revealed to be Hercules and Ten Cents' sister, and Ariel becomes smitten with Ten Cents. Delta Queen needs help, and Ten Cents, Top Hat and Penny rush out to help. Ariel and Penny go home, but miss the Star tugs.

### 1929

* The Great Depression begins.

### 1931

* Jennings was retired.
* Stanley (Narrow Gauge) arrived on Sodor, and dubbed "Smudger" by Falcon.
* Sometime in April: The Great Depression meant the Stars were lacking on work, and the Z-Stacks' illegal contracts were keeping them going. Ultimately, the cries catch up to the Z-Stacks as the Bridge Cafe - a speakeasy - was shut down. Zak and Zeus were dry-docked for the year, and the Stars and Z-Stacks were finally able to openly be friends. Captain Zero even encourages it now. Zak and Zeus also get in kahoots with Captain Zero's wife, Ursula.

### 1933

* Gerry and John were sold to international railways.
* Sometime in March: When the tugs are tasked to load a tramper, Zeus steals Warrior's barge. He tries to go to the tramper, but he realises it's Johnny Cuba.

Zeus is punished by Captain Zero for doing illegal activity with dredger detail, while Sunshine is praised by Captain Star and given a new coat of paint.

Zorran, Zob, the Stars and Salvage team work together to find the real culprit. Johnny Cuba is outed as a liar and was to be arrested, but Hail accidentally gives him the Final Firing. The worker who repainted the black water barge green was arrested, Hail seeks out therapy, and Little Owl was left in the sheds as punishment for letting the grudge on the Z-Stacks fester too long.

### 1937

* Sometime in April: Top Hat tells Porter of the Dunkirk-Flanders disaster, and that two troublesome engines, Herbert and Stanley/Smudger, were involved. Little Owl thinks they could fit into the Z-Stacks, and she still hasn't let go of the grudge. The Z-Stacks ultimately go on strike, and Little Owl was told that Zebedee, Zip, Zug and Zilly could have been killed for false accusations of treason. Horrified, she vows to apologise to the Z-Stacks the first chance she got. Zob, Zip, Zug, Top Hat, Warrior, Sunshine, Moonlight and Stormy save Little Owl from a fire. It's revealed that Zob was in the Dunkirk-Flanders disaster as the P.R.R. Tug No. 9, and he asked for the rechristening ceremony to help get the Z-Stacks on the straight and narrow.

### 1939

* August 29: An inspection happens at Bigg City, and the tugs also are tasked to look after two navy ships. Unfortunately, Nantucket wants a tow, and is getting impatient.

Sea Rogue takes over Big Mac's duties until he's mended, and there is a joint funeral for those who died.
* Sometime in August: Ariel comes to fill in for Top Hat after his death, which cheered up the Star Tugs immensely, same with Tillie filling in for Kirke on the Dockside Railway. Unfortunately, Hans and Corona fill in for Zilly and Zug after their deaths, which sends everyone into a panic. Sunshine and Ten Cents work through their trauma with Sunshine temporarily going Up River, and them both seeing Captain Lucky. But sadly, Billy Shoepack is killed via his own dynamite by the Nazis. This prompts an enraged Ten Cents to join the Navy, and Hercules, Big Mac, Zorran and Zip are quick on his heels. Zak joins too, but everyone's suspicious by his motivations.
* Sometime in September: Venus, Meridian and Penny fill in for Hercules, Big Mac and Ten Cents when they join the Navy, as do Theodore, Emily (tug) and George (tug) for Zorran, Zak and Zip.

### 1943

Captain Zero dies in the confrontation saving Captain Star and Warrior accidentally kills Otto while saving Big Mac. O.J., Warrior, Zebedee, Hail, Stormy and Little Owl were all kidnapped, and the groups launch rescues. Nightshade, Oleander and Foxglove are sunk and become artificial reefs; Zak, Zeus and Ursula Zero are killed in a burning warehouse by Zorran (who also sadly dies), Hans is taken for target practice, Burke and Blair are given the Final Firing as a penitently, Corona is now a goosehouse at Dun Tuggin', and Mr. Broke died while Burke and Blair were trying to escape.
