Thomas and the Magic Railroad: The Fan-Edit

Chapter 10

(Thomas was puffing backwards and passes Henry who was looking sad)

Thomas: Morning, Henry. What's the matter?

Henry: I still have my boiler ache.

Thomas: Don't worry, I'll one, two, three, four, five, six trucks of special Island of Sodor coal for you.

Henry: Thank you, Thomas. Special coal could fix that. I owe you one.

Thomas: But I wish I could fix the problem of where Mr. Conductor went to.

(Thomas still goes backwards and bumps the coal trucks and accidentally pushes one into some buffers and disappears)

(Thomas' driver gets out of his cab to couple up the trucks)

Thomas' Driver: That's strange, there are only five trucks here. Oh well, let's get moving Thomas.

Thomas: Five? But I know there should be six.

(Thomas pulls Annie and Clarabelle. He stops at a signal next to Percy who was taking on water.)

Thomas: Hello Percy. How's it going

Percy: Thomas, I heard you lost a coal truck earlier today.

Thomas: Yes. I guess it disappeared when I was at the buffers near the little grotto.

Percy: Maybe those are the buffers to the lost railway.

Thomas: And the grotto is the lost engine's special platform!

Percy: Of course!

Thomas: Percy, you protect those buffers from Diesel and Geor…

Percy: What?

Thomas: and I'll find Mr. Conductor.

Percy: Why me?

Thomas: Because you're a brave engine, Percy.

(The signal changes and Thomas leaves)

Percy: Oh.

(Near the viaduct, Mr. Conductor walks along and shadow follows him)

Diesel 10: GOOOOOOOD MOOOUUURRRRNING SODOR!!

(Mr. Conductor turns around and sees Diesel 10 and runs away)

Diesel 10: Remember me?

(Mr. Conductor tries to run up a hill but breaks his ankle and falls)

Diesel 10: Oh, I see you forgot to bring the sugar. Bad mistake for you.

(Diesel 10 picks up Mr. Conductor)

Diesel 10: HaHaHaHa!!

(Diesel oils up and stops at the viaduct and holds Mr. Conductor over the edge)

Diesel 10: Okay, Twinkle Toes. First off, I know about the buffers.

Mr. Conductor's thoughts: Oh no, my nightmare is coming true.

Diesel 10: Second, I know about the magic railway. So when I find that engine, you and all those puffballs will be history! Tell me where the buffers are! NOW!

(Mr. Conductor notices the hydraulic hose connecting Diesel 10's claw. He tries to pull out his ticket puncher to disconnect the hose so Diesel 10 would let him go)

Diesel 10: Oh no you don't.

(Diesel 10 shakes his claw which causes Mr. Conductor to drop his puncher)

Diesel 10: 5...

(Mr. Conductor tries to reach his puncher)

Diesel 10: 4... 3...

(Mr. Conductor gets the puncher)

Diesel 10: 2...

(Mr. Conductor hurries and cuts the hose and the claw rockets him away)

Mr. Conductor: You won't stop me today Diesel.

Diesel 10: Noooooooooooooo!!

(Mr. Conductor flies through the air and lands on a lorry truck filled with bags of flour that was about to leave the windmill)

Lorry Driver: What the?

Mr. Conductor: Wow, I'm at the windmill. Talk about a perfect landing.

(Mr. Conductor coughs from all the flour in the air as he gets off the lorry)

(He looks around the windmill to find the clue as the lorry driver inspects the damage)

(Mr. Conductor sees words formed by the sunlight and shadows on the windmill wall)

Mr. Conductor: "Stoke up the magic in the mountain and the lady will smile then watch the swirls that spin so well." What does that mean?
