The Narrow Gauge Chronicles 1

It was a calm morning on the Island of Sodor. Duncan, a small, rude Narrow Gauge engine, was complaining. "Why do I have to go to the slate works while you all take the coaches. Their just silly cattle trucks!" " How dare you!" said the coaches.

Later Duncan met Skarloey and his Brother Talyllyn at the lake side station on his way to the slate works. "Morning" said Talyllyn. "Shove it up your buffers!!" growled Duncan. "Well I never!" said Talyllyn. "For that I'm taking your favorite place in the shed!!" shouted Skarloey, but Duncan was too far away to hear. As he passed the gunpowder works he met Rhenease and Rusty. "Hello fat face!" shouted Rusty. "GGGGGGRRRRRR!!" growled Duncan. "Why ME!!" he shouted as he puffed away.

Soon Duncan arrived at the slate works. His first task was to take loaded vans to a siding then hitch some empties to the incline railways cable. Ounce he had hitched the empties on, the driver and fireman got out to uncouple him for the vans. Just as they got out a workman shouted and told Duncan to move. "NO!!" shouted Duncan at the workman. Just then loaded vans at the top of the incline began to come down! Just as Duncan was about to yell again he jerked forward as he rose up the incline! "Help!!" he shouted as he went up. When he reached the top the coupling between him and the vans broke. Without warning Duncan began falling cab over wheels down the incline. He landed with a crash at the bottom. His funnel, cad, and wheels had been ripped off during the fall.

Soon Peter Sam and Sir Handel came to clear up the mess. "Peter Sam what rubbish is this." chuckled Sir Handel. "Its Duncan don't you know." replied Peter Sam. "Well I never, I guess Duncan here can fly!" laughed Sir Handel. When they brought Duncan home the, Thin Controller was waiting. "I'm very mad with you Duncan we must now rebuild the incline thanks to you! I hope some time in the back of the shed will teach you sense!!" scolded The Thin Controller.

What will happen to Duncan!? What will happen to the railway without the slate works!? Read what happens in the next edition of
