Episode 1: Gordon, and the new diesel
It was a wonderful день on the island of sodor. Thomas was running his branchline as usual, when he stopped at a station. Gordon stopped Далее to him.
"Good morning Gordon." сказал(-а) Thomas. "How are Ты 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 Ты 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 Далее morning, Sir Tophamm Hat was at Tidmouth Sheds with a silver diesel that had three stripes.
"Everyone, meet Sean." сказал(-а) Sir Tophamm Hat. "He is the new engine that I ordered."
"A pleasure to meet Ты all." сказал(-а) Sean.
All the engines сказал(-а) hello to the new engine, except for Gordon. He seemed jealous, and thought that Sean was going to replace him.
"Gordon," сказал(-а) Sir Tophamm Hat, "I need Ты to carry the express."
"Yes sir," сказал(-а) 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 минуты 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." сказал(-а) 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 Ты 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," сказал(-а) the conductor, "Let's get a Переместить on."
Sean pushes, as Gordon pulled. Together, they got the train up Gordon's холм, хилл 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 Далее station, "Sean is not replacing any engines, and Ты should know better. He helped Ты go up a холм, хилл after Ты made that accusation. As a punishment, you're going to pull freight trains for three weeks."
"Oh, the indignity." сказал(-а) 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 Назад 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." утка 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 Ты telling these engines?" Gordon asked.
"What my Назад railroad was like." Sean told him.
"Sure." сказал(-а) Gordon, not believing him.
"Why don't Ты believe him?" утка 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." сказал(-а) Sean.
'Maybe, this guy isn't so bad after all.' Gordon thought, "Could Ты 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.
