Episode 1: Gordon, and the new diesel
It was a wonderful araw on the island of sodor. Thomas was running his branchline as usual, when he stopped at a station. Gordon stopped susunod to him.
"Good morning Gordon." sinabi Thomas. "How are you on this fine day?"
"I'm doing alright Thomas." Gordon replied, "And I heard we're getting a new engine."
"That's awesome." Wheeshed Thomas, "Do you know when the new engine will be getting here?"
"I think he'll meet us at Tidmouth Shed's tomorrow morning." Gordon told Thomas, then he steamed off with the express. Then, Thomas took off with his train.
The susunod morning, Sir Tophamm Hat was at Tidmouth Sheds with a silver diesel that had three stripes.
"Everyone, meet Sean." sinabi Sir Tophamm Hat. "He is the new engine that I ordered."
"A pleasure to meet you all." sinabi Sean.
All the engines sinabi hello to the new engine, except for Gordon. He seemed jealous, and thought that Sean was going to replace him.
"Gordon," sinabi Sir Tophamm Hat, "I need you to carry the express."
"Yes sir," sinabi Gordon, and he left the yards at once.
When Gordon got to Knapford station, he noticed the express was a little larger then it normally was. It was seven passenger cars long.
Gordon coupled to the train, and left the station when the signal turned green.
'This may be hard to get up that hill' Gordon thought. It seemed to be easy at first, but Gordon knew he would have a hard time going up the hill.
A few minutos later, near the station, Sean was waiting for his first assignment. A engineer came to him.
"Gordon is stuck on the hill, and needs your help." sinabi the engineer.
"I'll get on it right away." Sean said, and raced out of the station to Gordon's hill.
"Years of going up this monstrous hill, and I still can't get a train up here." Gordon exclaimed, "Bother!"
Sean soon arrived, "Don't worry Gordon, I'm here to help."
"Oh great." Gordon said, "The engine that Sir Tophamm Hat got to replace me."
"Is that why you think I'm here?" Sean asked.
"Yes!" Gordon answered. "Everytime Sir Tophamm Hat gets a diesel, they threaten to replace us!"
"I don't want to replace anyone." Sean said, as he coupled to the train.
"Alright," sinabi the conductor, "Let's get a ilipat on."
Sean pushes, as Gordon pulled. Together, they got the train up Gordon's burol with ease. As they reached the top, Sean uncoupled from the train, and watched Gordon take off.
Later, Sir Tophamm Hat came to see him at the susunod station, "Sean is not replacing any engines, and you should know better. He helped you go up a burol after you made that accusation. As a punishment, you're going to pull freight trains for three weeks."
"Oh, the indignity." sinabi Gordon, and left the station right when the conductor blew his whistle while waving his green flag.
Meanwhile at the sheds, Sean was talking to Thomas, Percy, and Duck.
"My nakaraan owner replaced me with newer diesels called a genesis." Sean told the three, "They can use a third rail for electricity."
"We don't have any engines like that on our lines." pato said.
"What is a third rail?" Percy asked.
"It's another rail that is parallel to the tracks." Sean explained, "Some diesels are capable of using the third rail to use electricity for power. I'm not one of them."
Just then, Gordon arrived at the sheds, "What are you telling these engines?" Gordon asked.
"What my nakaraan railroad was like." Sean told him.
"Sure." sinabi Gordon, not believing him.
"Why don't you believe him?" pato asked.
"It's not like he wants to take over our jobs" Percy said, "Some engines did that to him already."
"Really?" Gordon asked.
"Sad, but true." sinabi Sean.
'Maybe, this guy isn't so bad after all.' Gordon thought, "Could you tell me what your line was like?" Gordon said.
So that night, the engines heard a lot of stories that Sean told them, about how he pulled trains when he was brand new, but that's another story.
The End.
