Henry slunk into the shed at Knapford. The engines there looked oddly at him, but one glare told them all they needed to know.

The big green engine huffed. All day, he’d been excited about the new tenders - he’d told everyone he met about them. How had he not seen that Duck was having him on?

Before Henry’s mind could replay the moment those… rust-bins on wheels had been shoved behind him, a whistle cut through the air. Henry braced, his brow furrowed.

He had no earthly idea why the visitor was backing in next to him, instead of bunking with the other engines.

“Hello again, Henry.” He smiled.

Henry looked away.

“So, about this evening.”

A loud blast of steam served as Henry’s reply. Flying Scotsman seemed unmoved.

“We’ve all had embarrassing moments - especially with tenders. Why, I remember an eel clogged my feedpipe and nearly made me run dry on the main line!”

Henry wasn’t going to even try to understand how an eel got into an engine’s tender, so instead asked a more pertinent question.

“Why are you telling me this?”

“Well, to remind you that we all have our moments. Though, six tenders is a bit much, isn’t it?”

“I should have known Duck was full of crap.” Henry grunted, more to himself.

“Mm. From what I gathered, Duck gave them to you as a joke because you said you wanted more tenders?”

“Another tender, but yes.”

“Why?”

“…” Was he serious? He, the one with two tenders, was asking why Henry would want another?

“Well, you’ve got two. From what Duck and Donald said, it’s because you went a hundred miles an hour.”

Flying Scotsman stared. Then he laughed. Henry bristled.

“I would love to know how you reached that conclusion.” The visitor chuckled, catching his breath. No, the reason is…” his tone shifted abruptly, “…much sadder.”

“How so?”

“British Railways is doing away with steam engines.”

“Wh…” Henry struggled to find the words. “What?”

“They’ve already taken down a lot of water towers and coal stands. I need the extra tender to make the same distance. Well, I did, anyway. Before…” He trailed off.

“…Before…?”

“Before they banned steam on the British main line.”

Still cross with Gordon, Duck went to Edward’s station to help out there.

“Hello, Duck!” Edward beamed.

“Yo,” Billy added, unenthusiastically.

“That famous engine came through this morning. She whistled to me! Wasn’t she kind?” The blue engine continued.

“She’s the finest engine in the world.” Duck replied, a wistful tone in his voice. His demeanor then quickly soured. “It’s a shame Gordon doesn’t.”

“Because people weren’t giving him their full attention?” Billy sniffed.

“That… about sums it up.” Duck agreed, surprised he and Billy had actually managed to find common ground without an argument.

“Take no notice.” Edward soothed. “Whatever Gordon said isn’t worth giving attention to. He’s just jealous, like Billy said.”

The rails began to shudder as a deep rumbling could be heard in the distance.

“Look,” Edward sighed, “here he comes now.”

Gordon came soaring past the yard, looking fit to burst as his wheels mercilessly pounded the rails.

“She did it, I’ll do it! She did it, I’ll do it!!” He panted in rapid succession. His train rocketed under the bridge, and quickly disappeared beyond the station.

“Sounds like Gordon’s trying to pull a ‘City of Truro’.” Billy snickered.

“I should hope he’ll knock himself to bits.” Duck grimaced.

“It may not seem like it right now, but Gordon is one of our friends.” Edward interrupted, severely.

“Define ‘our’.” Billy retorted.

“Neither of you should wish harm on any engine on our railway, no matter how… immature they may act.” The blue engine scolded.

General TTTE Headcanons

No engine in particular this time, just stuff I’ve been thinking of lately.

- The reason we don’t see BoCo anymore is because he was sent to help out a heritage railway on the mainland. He was meant to come back ages ago, but general shenanigans on said railway have kept him there. You’d almost think that they wanted to keep him there...

- Thomas will never admit it, but the DOWT engines wig him out a bit. There’s something about so many engines dressing up as him that doesn’t quite sit right. And don’t get him started on the dummy units in the States.

- Nia actually has some experience with railway shows, but she has a low opinion of most show engines because of it. Once, the Great Railway Show was being held in Kenya, and Nia was chosen to take part in the shunting competition. Unfortunately, most of the engines there that year were rather rude and unsportsmanlike.

- There’s an old saying about mountain engines: “You can take the engine off the mountain, but you can’t take the mountain out of the engine.” And no engine exhibits that more than Ashima. She loves the fresh air, the dizzying heights, the weight of the coaches against her, and the view from the peak. Honestly, she would live on a mountain summit if she could.

- Nia sometimes puts her work before her own needs. If she’s working with an engine who’s giving her a hard time (i.e. Dennis or the Ironworks twins) or she has some sort of mechanical issue, she’ll often put more focus on getting the job done on time than her own health.

- Bill and Ben stayed blue all the way up until Timothy arrived. When they realized the new engine had ‘their’ color, they threw the biggest hissy fit they could until they were painted yellow again. Some say you could hear the noise all the way from Edward’s station.

- Theo was actually built by Ruth when she was visiting the UK. But something came up and she had to go back to the States, so she left him in the old yard with Lexi and Merlin until she could come back. She meant to come back, but by the time she had the chance, he was working at the Steelworks.

- Long before Great Waterton was abandoned, a fireless engine worked near the mines. There was no sign of them when the town was being rebuilt, but Thomas swears up and down that he heard something during his adventure in Morgan’s Mine.

- Percy and Nia 100% teach each other swears. Why, imagine the Fat Controller’s surprise when he overheard Nia calling a particularly rude stationmaster a... well, I'm not quite sure it’s fit for print.

- Billy has proven that engines can survive underwater. He had an accident similar to Percy’s at the harbor, only Billy slipped much further into the sea. Luckily, they were able to fish him out.

- Engines can will themselves to grow facial hair. Not suddenly like Dennis from SpongeBob, of course. But they can decide if they want it. Flying Scotsman actually had a rather distinguished looking beard in the mid 70′s.

- Whiff used to have contact lenses, but everybody - himself included - was squeamish about putting them in. In the end, it was decided that glasses were easier for everybody.

- Bridgette Hatt grew up to be Toby’s driver, but he didn’t recognize her at first. It wasn’t until she jokingly asked if he was electric that he finally realized who she was.
