COMING SOON!

(Taking place after Sodor's Legend Of The Lost Treasure)

1. Maintenance Check!

Moral: patience is a virtue/routine maintenance is important on roads and railways

Sir Topham Hatt assigns Ryan to a weekly run of routine maintenance along the branch line from Arlesburgh through Harwick. But Ryan doesn't listen too closely to his instructions and causes confusion and delay among his fellow engines.

2. Not So Small After All

Moral: don't judge a book by its cover/size doesn't always matter

Spencer takes the Duke and Duchess on a tour of the Arlesdale Railway when he meets Bert, Rex and Mike and teases them for their size. The three engines work together to pay Spencer out by challenging him to a race one-by-one around the railway...which eventually leads to trouble!

3. The Overhaul Express

Moral: overhauls are a serious matter/hard work pays off

Gordon bursts a safety valve while pulling the express and is sent for repairs for the rest of the week. Henry pulls the express in his place but is due for an overhaul the second day. So Sir Topham Hatt arranges for James to double-head the express with him. James at first teases Henry about the thought of retirement but soon sees his problem and works hard to get him to Crovan's Gate, which earns him the express for the rest of the week.

4. Oliver's Discovery

Moral: carelessness can lead to trouble/different can be good

Oliver discovers a cliffside where a rock comes loose and dirt slowly starts to slide down. He quickly reports it to Miss Jenny who agrees to close the site until the area has been expected. Nelson takes workmen to inspect the site and all the machines continue on with their work, except for Max and Monty whose careless behavior leads them into the site...which leads to disaster!

5. Trick Or Treat!

Moral: work before play/don't let bullies get to you

It is Halloween and Skarloey and Rheneas have to run their slate mine route so Rusty is left in charge and Paxton and Diesel take their place. Rusty's Halloween story about Proteus convinces Diesel to have all the engines running scared. But Paxton helps his friends pay Diesel back...with disastrous results!

And coming soon on Christmas...
