Thomas and Friends: Legends of Sodor (Story 103): A Marklin in The Mine

Narrator: A Marklin in The Mine

Scene opens with Thomas and Rosie working at the newly reopened coal mine

Narrator: Following Molly’s discovery of the old Coal Mine, Thomas and Rosie were working hard in the mines

Rosie biffs 3 coal cars and Thomas brought 4 cars to the incline

Narrator: The two friends were dusty and dirty

Thomas: Phew, I can’t wait for a wash

Rosie: Me too Thomas

Scene transitions to Thomas shunting 5 cars to the crane to unload the coal

Narrator: Later, Thomas delivered empty cars to a crane

Thomas: That’s it for the day

As Thomas puffs back out, he heard something in the mine

???: Who goes there?

Thomas: Ummm, hello? Is someone there?

???: Yes? Who are you?

Thomas: I’m Thomas

???: Thomas? Now that’s a familiar name I haven’t heard after 41 Years

Thomas: 41 Years? Then that means… *panicked* Ghost?! *races away*

???: Wait! I’m not a ghost! Aw bother

Scene transitions to Thomas at Tidmouth Roundhouse Shed, as Rosie and the other engines (Edward, Henry, Gordon, James, Percy, Emily, Molly, Stanley, Nia, and Rebecca) were there

Narrator: That night, Thomas told the other engines about what he heard

Thomas: Then, the voice said he hasn’t heard my name after 41 Years

Edward: 41 Years? Hmmmmm, sounds like we had an engine before everyone else came

Henry: Who Edward?

Edward: Does anyone remember when we had a Marklin Engine doing all shunting duties at Knapford?

Gordon: Marklin Engine?

James: Hmmm, sounds familiar

Molly: Ummm, Edward? What is this Marklin Engine?

Edward: Allow me to tell you, a long time ago, long before you, Emily, Rosie, Stanley, and everyone else came to the railway, there were 6 engines at the time before Percy and Toby came to the railway

Scene transitions to a Flashback, to 1984, at Knapford

Edward: *Narrating* The 6 engines at the time were me, Thomas, Henry, Gordon, James, and a Marklin Engine

The flashback shows the Marklin Engine shunting 3 Cars full of Coal, Ballast, and Sand, as well as 2 Tar Tankers to a siding in Knapford

Edward: *narrating* As passenger duty will be run by Gordon and James, a shunter was needed for other engines like me or Henry, we had a Marklin Engine who would bring the coaches and cars to the big engines

Marklin: Here ya go James, your cars!

James: Blegh! Cars! I will not! *blew his whistle and puffs away*

Marklin: Aw…

The flashback shows Thomas puffing down the line with Annie and Clarabel, as Marklin watches on

Edward: *narrating* But as Thomas earned his Branchline after rescuing James, Thomas was no longer the shunter, as all duties fell to Marklin

Flashback shows Marklin shunting 5 empty cars, as Percy and Toby arrived

Edward: *narrating* But as soon as Percy and Toby arrived to the railways, the Marklin was being used less and less

Flashback transitions to Duck arriving at Knapford

Edward: *narrating* But by the time Duck arrived, Marklin was out of service

Flashback shows Marklin hiding in an old coal mine

Edward: *narrating* Not wanting to be sent away, the Marklin hid at the old coal mine, the same one you and Rosie were working at today

The flashback ends as it returns to the present

Thomas: So, the Marklin is still out there, likely in the coal mine

Edward: Seems likely Thomas, but it would be risky to find him

Thomas: That’s what I’m willing to do Edward

Scene transitions to the next day as Thomas arrived at the Coal Mine

Narrator: The next day, Thomas arrived at the Coal Mine, determined to find the lost Marklin

Thomas: Ok, let’s do this *puffs into the mine*

Thomas puffs down the mine looking for the Marklin

Thomas: Hello? Hello!

Marklin: Hello!

Thomas came across the Marklin, he was dirty and covered in coal dust

Thomas: It’s, it’s you!

Marklin: Hello Thomas, long time no see

Thomas: I can’t believe it, your still here after all these years

Marklin: Yes..

Thomas: I’m sorry I ran away from you, I thought you were a ghost

Marklin: *chuckled* Me? A ghost? Non sense Thomas!

Thomas: *chuckled* Then, let’s get you out!

Thomas’s driver coupled Thomas to Marklin

Thomas: Hang on Marklin! *blew his whistle and puffs out as he pulls Marklin*

Marklin: Oh it’ll be great to be useful again

Thomas: Oh believe me Marklin, it’ll be great!

Scene cuts to outside the mine, as Rosie arrived at the mine, with Edward following, Sir Topham Hatt was on board Edward

Narrator: Meanwhile, outside the mine, Rosie and Edward came

Rosie: I hope Thomas is alright

Edward: I hope so too-

Thomas blew his whistle as he was out of the mine with Marklin

Thomas: Engine rescued!

Edward gasped in surprised

Edward: I don’t believe it..

Rosie: It is the Marklin Engine!

STH: Is that so? *steps out of Edward’s cab*

Thomas: S-sir?! What are you doing here?!

STH: Edward told me about an old shunter still around the island

Marklin: Oh dear..

STH: And I think, it be great to have him restored!

Thomas: Really? You’re not scrapping Marklin?

STH: Of course not Thomas! It’s time we owe our apologies for abandoning him after all these years

Marklin: Oh thank you sir

STH: Now then, let’s get you to the SteamWorks

Marklin: An honor sir

Camera pans out of the coal mine

Narrator: Legends are true, you can’t leave an engine behind

Steam clouds rolled in

Thomas and Friends: Sodor Online Journeys (Christmas Story 1): Thomas's Christmas Party

It was Christmas on the Island of Sodor. All the engines were working hard. Thomas and Toby were busy carrying people and parcels up and down the branch line. Everyone was happy.

Only the coaches Annie and Clarabel were complaining. "It's always the same before Christmas!" they groaned. "We feel so full! We feel so full!" "Oh, come on!" said Thomas. "Where's your festive spirit? Christmas day is almost here." By the side of the track was a little cottage with a familiar figure waving to them. "It's Mrs. Kyndley." whistled Thomas. "Peep! Peep! Happy Christmas!" Thomas always felt better for seeing her. "Christmas just wouldn't be Christmas without Mrs. Kyndley." he said to himself. When work was over, Thomas went to see the other engines. All their coats had been polished. "Huh!" said Gordon. "Just look at us. Your driver will have to work fast to get you as smart as us." "Never mind that." replied Thomas. "I've something important to say. Do you realise it's a whole year since Mrs. Kyndley saved us from a nasty accident? Do you remember when she was ill in bed and…" "Yes, of course." interrupted Edward. "You told us how she waved her red dressing gown out of her window to warn you about a landslide ahead." "And you and Toby gave her presents." Percy joined in. "Percy: And the Fat Controller/Sir Topham Hatt sent her to Bournemouth to get really well in the sunshine./And Sir Topham Hatt sent her to the seaside to get better." "But…" said James and Henry together/said the other engines. "…the rest of us have never thanked her properly." "Exactly." said Thomas. "So now I think we should all give her a special Christmas party."

Everyone was getting very excited, and the drivers felt sure that the Fat Controller/Sir Topham Hatt would agree, as indeed he did. The engines were all busy making plans, when silence fell. The Fat Controller/Sir Topham Hatt had bad news. "The weather's changed badly. Mrs. Kyndley is snowed up. Toby says he'll help to rescue her. You must help too, Thomas. There's no party unless you do." Thomas hated snow, but he said bravely… "I'll try, sir. We must rescue her, we must." "There's a good engine. You and Toby will manage splendidly."

Thomas charged the snowdrifts fiercely. Sometimes he swept them aside, sometimes they stuck fast, and the men had to loosen them. But at the cutting near the cottage, they could go no further. "Look at that!" exclaimed Thomas' fireman. "Peep! Peep! Peep! Here we are!" whistled Thomas. An answering wave came from an upstairs window. Then they heard a familiar sound. "That's Terence." said Thomas. "He's come to help too." Sure enough, Terence had a snowplough and was working hard to clear a path to the railway line and safety. At long last, the rescue was complete. Percy took the tired workmen home. Terence said goodbye to Mrs. Kyndley, and promised to take care of her cottage as he watched them all set off.

The engines made good time. No more snow had fallen, but the yard was dark. There was no one to be seen. Thomas' heart sank, but not for long. All the lights suddenly went on. What a marvelous site awaited Mrs. Kyndley. "Well done." said the Fat Controller/Sir Topham Hatt. "I'm really proud of you all." Mrs. Kyndley especially thanked the smaller engines. "Thomas and Toby are old friends." she said. "And now, Percy, you are my friend too." Percy was very pleased. "Three cheers for Mrs. Kyndley!" he called. "Peep! Peep! Peep!" they all whistled as they began to sing. ♪We wish you a merry Christmas, we wish you a merry Christmas, we wish you a merry Christmas and a happy new year. Good tidings we bring to you and your kin. Good tidings for Christmas, and a happy new year. We wish you a merry Christmas, we wish you a merry Christmas, we wish you a merry Christmas and a happy new year.♪ Thomas the Tank Engine and his friends thought it was the best Christmas ever, and Mrs. Kyndley could think of nowhere should rather live, than here with them on the Island of Sodor.

Thomas and Friends: Sodor Online Journeys (Story 70): Bowled Out

One day, the Diesel (whose number was D261) surveyed the shed. "Not bad." he said. "I seem worse, but at least you're all clean." The engines glared. "It's not your fault, but you're out of date. Your controller/Sir Topham Hatt should scrap you, and get engines like me. A fill of oil, a touch on the starter, and I'm off. No bother, no waiting. They'll have to fuss round you for hours before you're ready." The engines were furious!

The next morning, the engines had an indignation meeting on the turntable. "Disgraceful!" said Gordon. "Disgusting!" put in James. "Despicable!" finished Henry. "Tae say such things to ooz!" burst out Donald and Douglas. "It's tae teach him a lesson wuld be one. But how dae we dae it?"

Their chance came sooner than expected. D261 was purring comfortably. The Inspector watched the fitter as he made final adjustments. The wind tugged the inspectors hat. D261 rolled up beside them. "Look at me, Duck and Stepney!" he boasted loudly. "Now I'll show you something!" D261 rolled proudly towards his coaches. Then, it happened. Shaking and spluttering, D261 stopped. Meanwhile, the inspector looked for his hat. D261 seethed with fury as Duck and Stepney pushed him back to the shed. "My hat!" exclaimed the Inspector. "You sucked it through your air intake!" "Bother your hat." said the Fat Controller/Sir Topham Hatt. "The heavy train is due out. You'll have to take it, Duck." "Can I help him, Sir?" asked Stepney. "Very well." replied the Fat Controller/Sir Topham Hatt. "I'll see what I can do."

The engines were soon ready. "Gordon will takeover from halfway, so get the train to there. Nevermind about being late. Good luck." "Don't worry, Sir." smiled Stepney. "We'll get there, and be early too." The Cavalcade moved between the rails, and out to the open line. "Now for a sprint!" huffed Stepney. "I'm ready when you are." replied Duck.

First, they rushed through Edward's Station. Next, they charged up Gordon's Hill and Beyond. They felt the drag of the heavy coaches here. It was hard work. But Once they reach the Top, they ran smoothly down the line towards the big station.

"Hello! You're early." said Gordon. "That's one in a headlamp for ol' Diesel!" "James says he's sick as boiler sludging sulking in the shed." "Serves him right for saying we're out of date." And Gordon chortled away.

Next day, everyone came to say goodbye to Stepney. "Come back and see us soon!" whistled the engines. "And you're always welcome on my Bluebell Railway too." replied Stepney. Then he puffed away.

What about the diesel (D261)? He had slipped away in the night before. He said goodbye to no one, but he left two things behind. The Nasty Smell of Bad Manners, and a Battered Bowler Hat.

Thomas and Friends: Sodor Online Journeys, Starring Trainz Railroad Simulator 2022 (Story 69): Train Stops Play

Stepney the Bluebell Engine was busy talking to the other engines. It was his first visit to their railway and he was having a splendid time. "You are very lucky engines." he said. "Your line has got everything. It's long enough to give you a good run, and you have plenty of passengers. Then you have a quarry and a mine, so you'll need plenty of trucks/cars. Trucks/Cars are fun. I miss them on our line." Percy was surprised. All the engines thought trucks/cars were trouble. "You're welcome to take some of mine," he said, "but you better ask driver first."

Stepney took the trucks/cars to the harbor. Then he picked up a load of empty ones and started back.

p ahead was a cricket field. The game had just begun. Stepney and his driver had to wait at a signal. "Good." said his driver. "We can watch the game." Then there was trouble. The batsman hit the ball. It flew high into the sky towards Stepney's train. "Clunk!" went the signal. "Thump!" went the ball into a truck/car, but neither driver nor fireman heard it. "Stop!" yelled the players, but Stepney didn't hear them. "Come along, come along." he puffed to the trucks/cars. "Our one and only ball!" cried the players. "Wake up, Caroline." they said to their old car. "The chase was on."

Caroline coughed crossly and rolled down the road. Stepney wasn't hurrying. Caroline soon came up behind. "Toot toot!" She wailed. The players shouted, but Stepney was still too far for his driver and fireman to see or hear properly. They completely misunderstood. "If those jokers want to race," said the driver, "they can have one. Faster, Stepney, faster!"

Poor Caroline wasn't happy at all. She rattled along at twice her usual speed. "I shouldn't be treated like this." she grumbled. "This pace is too hot for my system. It'll fuse all my circuits."

Suddenly, Stepney was nowhere to be seen. "Hurrah!" cried Caroline. "That silly train has run into a hole so we can't catch it. I can go home now." But she couldn't. Her driver pounded Caroline on up the steep hill and then down the other side towards the station.

Stepney was already here when Caroline cluttered in. "We need our ball back!" cried the players and explained everything. The ball was nestled under some straw and the third truck/car from the van. "We found it!" cried a player. "We're sorry." sighed the driver. "Ah, you couldn't help it." replied the player. "Now we must get back quickly." "You'll be lucky." said the driver. "Caroline looks worn out." And she was. The driver spoke to the stationmaster and the signalman and they all agreed on a plan.

Soon they had rolled Caroline on to a flat truck/car, and a break van coupled behind. The players crowded inside and Stepney pulled the train back to the play field.

Everyone enjoyed watching the game. Even Caroline was pleased. She doesn't think trains are silly now. "They have their uses. They can save wear and tale on a poor car's wheels."

Thomas and Friends: Sodor Online Journeys (Story 68): Stepney's First Day on Sodor

One morning, Stepney was preparing for a big day when the Bluebell Controller arrived. "Good morning, Stepney." said the Bluebell Controller. "The Fat Controller/Sir Topham Hatt has invited you to visit on his railway. Do you think you can work hard for me?" "Yes Sir. I will try Sir." said Stepney. "That's a good engine." smiled the Bluebell Controller. "See you in 4 Days." Soon Stepney was ready to go. The guard/conductor blew his whistle and waved his flag, and he puffed away.

Meanwhile, Percy was talking to Douglas about the visiting engine. "He runs a famous branch line on the Bluebell Railway. Did you know that?" said Percy. Douglas was intrigued. "Aye, it mebbe famous," he said, "the two branch lines are the second to hae Thomas and Edward." "Douglas! Look!" squeaked Percy. ""Silly, how can I luk? Unless I'd be a corkscrew." "Why have they all come? There's no train yet." But Percy was wrong. The Signal dropped, and from far away Stepney's Whistle. "Here he comes!" yelled Douglas. Stepney puffed proudly through the Junction. "I hope you'll meet Thomas too." said Gordon. "You two have branch lines to be proud of." agreed Henry. Stepney smiled, and went to meet Edward.

First, Stepney went to tell Edward about his past. Then Stepney helped Duck shunt coaches in the yard, and they worked together all afternoon.

After that, Thomas arrived. "Sorry. I can't talk because it's time for my last Branch Line train. Mustn't be late." He was hardly out of sight when Stepney and Duck heard shouting at the station. Moments later came the alarm. "Stop all trains!" The signalman answered the telephone. "A special is it? I see." Thomas was concerned. "Why are we waiting? My passengers are being delayed." "Because," said his Driver, "we are being shunted to allow another train to pass." Soon they heard an unfamiliar puffing sound. There was Stepney with his headlamp swaying and whistle blowing. He gathered speed and disappeared. "Well bust my boiler!" said Thomas the Tank Engine.

Next morning, Thomas was still fuming. "Shunted at my own Branch too! It's a disgrace!" "I'm sorry." said Stepney. "I was a special." "Why?" asked Thomas. "Because an important passenger arrived just as you left." replied Stepney. "He ordered a special train, and Duck lets me take it. We had a splendid run, but uh…" "But." finished Thomas. "It can make an engine nervous not to know the line, right?" "Exactly!" said Stepney. "You're such an expert." Thomas felt much better. He couldn't be cross anymore, and he began telling Stepney all about his Branch Line.
