Sidney is the world's only engine with short-term memory loss. He works on the Little Western as a dockyard diesel. Well, that's what it says on the documents in his cab. He once got so lost, he got to New Zealand by rail! (don't ask, I don't know either) This time, Sidney was coming back from a brief visit to South Carolina, when he went the wrong way at Wellsworth (it's waaaaaay too easy to write for this guy!). Then he made a u-turn in Brussels, visited Marseille for the third time, and turned right after Vicarstown, in the direction of the manufacturing yards from the last story.

This story takes place the morning after the last story. Thing is, when Harvey left, the VURS switched the track back to where it should be, but the North Western didn't Sidney turned right again, ran over the points since they were set against him, and dim-wittedly landed on the rails.

"Oh I must alert the Fat Controller. Wait, about what? What was I saying? Ah, I have to find my way home!" So Sidney raced away.

Then Sidney saw Daisy. He knew because daisies look nice, and this engine wore make-up. He liked to make up ways to remember things. For example, Oliver is bright pink like an olive.

The LRV he mistook for Daisy was Zhizzy, who screeched to a halt, thinking to herself that maybe this new make-up was making her hallucinate Class 08s casually strolling down her line. Zhizzy never wore black eyeshadow again.

Sidney passed another LRV. He didn't know her, but he still needed to get home. And that was going to be hard to do, since cars and lorries were racing around him and calling him names.

Eventually, Sidney rolled to a tunnel portal, where he saw a red light.

"Red is for 'the line is ready'!" he thought. And raced ahead.

A mother was taking her three-year-old twins to the Marina, when she (and everyone else) heard a voice on the loud speaker.

"Unidentified object moving inbound, please step away from the edge of the platform."

The twin with the red shirt stayed with Mommy. The twin with a burnt sienna shirt with a Stegasaurus on it didn't. In fact, it was like the devil told him to do exactly the opposite of what the man in the loudspeaker said. He went to the edge to try to see what it was, and (you guessed it) fell on the tracks.

A common misconception about LRVs is the third rail. LRVs don't have a third rail. The child was not electrocuted. He couldn't see the object yet, but he did see lots of plastic bottles between the rails.

"Recycling!" said the boy, and proceeded to pick up the bottles and put them on the platform.

"Inserd Nayme Hear! Get back here this instant!" shouted the mother, half-terrified half-steaming mad.

Sidney rounded the bend.

Sidney stopped. He liked children.

Inserd climbed onto his buffer, and onto the platform.

Sidney rolled away. That family never recycled again.

Sidney rolled out of this strange tunnel with stations in it, and onto the A line. Sidney liked it here. There were lots of boats. Now if those cars could get lost...

Sidney saw a stop sign. He stopped. Forever. Madge the lorry came to take him back to Arlesburgh Harbour. What, you thought the ending was gonna be more epic? Like Sidney falling in the sea? Well, actually...

Sidney rolled off the lorry. And the quay. His driver got out, but Sidney was fished out four days later. Since he was completely submerged, they had to do CPR. And if you've never seen CPR done on an engine, look it up on YouTube, it's hilarious.
