Byron Saves the Day

The worst of winter was over across the Island of Sodor, but things still remained wet. Instead of snow, everyone now had to deal with pouring rain, and sometimes, it felt as though it would never stop. “Ugh!” groaned Patrick. “I can hardly see where I’m going!” “Never mind that,” called Nelson. “There could be lots of… ouch!” “Holes in the road…” muttered Nigel. “Unfortunately, yes,” sighed Nelson. “Don’t worry, everyone,” assured Buster. “I’ll get that flattened out in no time.” “Not with this weather,” sighed Patrick. “The rain will just keep making potholes everywhere.” “I fear what may happen to our next construction project if this keeps up,” said Kelly. “Could be very dangerous for us.” “We can do it!” smiled Jack. “We’ve dealt with a lot of bad weather before, haven’t we?” “You’re right, Jack,” said Jasmine. “So long as we keep pushing forward, we can accomplish anything!” * * * Of course, even with the optimism of some, others had rather strong opinions regarding

During the winter months, work at Anopha quarry slows down as there isn’t as much demand for rock and slate. This meant that Mavis would often be loaned to help out beyond Ffarquhar, and within the past year, it had especially been the case with Daisy’s transfer to the Harwick extension and Rosie taking up the position as pilot engine for Vicarstown. But right now, she and her friends were beginning to get stretched thin. “Good grief…” sighed Percy. “Rosie and Daisy just had to leave a year apart…” “Come on, Percy,” said Thomas. “We have to manage as best we can.” “We could do with the help of another engine around here,” said Toby. “Or maybe even two. One to help at the quarry, and one to help us with regular trains.” “Toby’s right,” agreed Percy. “Besides, Stanley and Stafford have their buffers full with keeping Philip and Charlie in line.” “Philip works with Edward and BoCo now, remember?” said Thomas. “Oh yeah…” trailed Percy. “That’s another change we have to get used

A Kyndley Gesture

Should you travel up the Ffarquhar branch line, you may encounter a small, wholesome cottage just south of Hackenbeck tunnel. This cottage is home to the Kyndleys, Kitty and Archibald, and every day, whenever they were outside or by a window, they would wave to the engines as they passed by. The engines were fond of the Kyndleys, Thomas and Toby especially, for years ago, Mrs. Kyndley had saved Thomas and his passengers from a landslide days before Christmas. It was late one Saturday afternoon, and the Kyndleys were preparing for dinner. Mr. Kyndley was reaching for some plates when he suddenly lost his balance. He leaned on one of the wooden supports to steady himself when… “Oh, that doesn’t sound good,” he remarked. “What’s wrong, Archibald?” asked Mrs. Kyndley. “That support just made a creaking noise, Kitty,” her husband explained. “Oh dear…” Mrs. Kyndley looked worried. “This house is rather old. We’d better have it looked over before something worse happens.” No sooner had

Early one autumn morning, Bertie the bus was carrying a lone passenger onboard when he saw Caroline at a roundabout. “Ah, good morning, Caroline!” beeped Bertie. “Beautiful day out there, isn’t it?” “You’re looking a lot more empty than usual, I see,” noted Caroline. “Is it a one-person coach tour you’re on today?” “Of a sort, yes,” chuckled Bertie. “Allow me to introduce myself,” said Bertie’s passenger, stepping out to the front. “My name is Edie Hetty, and I’ve asked for Bertie here to take me around Sodor so that I can find a place to live.” “It’s very nice to meet you, ma’am,” replied the old car. “I’m Caroline, and I hope your search for a new home goes well.” “So do I,” replied Miss Hetty. “Because so far, I’ve had no luck in finding the right place to call home.” “Well, let’s hope to change that, Miss Hetty,” said Bertie. “Sorry we can’t stay and chat, Caroline; we’ve got a home to find!

Early one morning, as the engines of the Arlesdale Railway were getting ready for the day’s work, Mr. Duncan came to the sheds. “Good morning, Mr. Duncan, sir,” greeted Rex. “How are you doing?” “Very good, Rex,” he replied. “I’m pleased to say that another engine will be coming to join you.” “Another engine, sir?” inquired Bert. “Already? We haven’t even been in service for a full year!” “Well,” said Mr. Duncan seriously, “this engine was almost bought by someone else, but rejected. If no one acted upon it…” The engines gasped quietly. “We understand, sir,” said Mike. “We’ll make them feel welcome.” “That’s good,” nodded Mr. Duncan. “I hope you’ll help her settle in.” * * * A few days later, Donald brought the new engine to the transfer yards. “Ah’m sure ye’ll lak yer new home, lass,” Donald assured. “I hope so…” the new engine said under her breath. “So, let me get this straight,” Rex’s voice drifted over. “You decided to get one of the clergymen back by spraying him

The weeks leading up to Christmas, the New Year and afterward were rather uneventful for the engines of Sodor, but come February, the weather would take a turn for the worst. Snow fell harder than usual, and it made things very difficult to see. This often meant that trains had to be either delayed or canceled, causing all sorts of confusion. The Ffarquhar branch line was no exception to this, as Toby and Henrietta found out. “Oooh, it’s bitter cold out there,” shivered Henrietta. “I’ll be glad once we’re back in our nice warm sheds!” “I have to agree,” huffed Toby. “Even with my fire going, it’s freezing!” * * * As the two carried on down the branch line, the snow got heavier. “Oh dear,” groaned Toby. “I wasn’t really designed to plow through this.” “Now how are we supposed to get our passengers to their destinations?” sighed Henrietta.

Master of the Railway Part 1

Many years ago, in a far away country, a large tender engine was making his way along the line with a goods train, his whistle blowing long and loud. He was painted black with gold boiler bands, lining and fittings, had red wheels, the number 51 on his tender, and his smoke deflectors bore gold nameplates saying his name - “Hiro”. In no time, Hiro pulled into a station and came to a stop with his train. Standing on the platform was an important looking gentleman in a kimono. “Mata maniau yo, Hiro,” the gentleman complimented with a bow. “Anata nashi de watashitachi wa nani o shimasu ka?” [Right on time again, Hiro. What would we do without you?] “Sensei, itsumo ganbatte shiawasedesu,” smiled Hiro. [Always happy to do my best, sir.] “Kono ma made wa `Tetsudō no Tatsujin' to yonde mo ī’,” chuckled the gentleman. [At this rate, we may as well call you “Master of the Railway”.] Hiro gave a humble smile at the gentleman at those words. “Arigatō,” he said quietly. [Thank you.] Later

The sheds at Kirk Ronan were unusually quiet that evening. Usually, Richard, Neil, Mary and Samson would be talking about the days’ events, and sometimes jokes would be made at the expense of either Richard or Samson, sometimes both, or there would be a few arguments if they had a particularly bad day. Tonight was not one of them, for they were in the presence of the railway’s newest engine, Hiro. For a long time, no one had said anything, but it was Hiro who wanted to try and break the ice between himself and the box tanks. The trouble was, his knowledge of English was very limited. “Hello…” Hiro said slowly. “I know this is a…” He tried to think; what word was he supposed to use? Worry? Aredesu ka? [Is that it?] “…worry to see me,” he said at last. “But I do not want to hurt you.” “Easy for you to say!” snapped Richard. “You’re probably one of those leftover Japanese spies that came to invade us to get secrets for your railway back home!” “Richard!” snapped Mary. “That’s no way

Coffee on the Go

A long time ago, there was a little line known as the Tidmouth, Knapford and Elsbridge Light Railway, and it was run by four little engines known as Coffee Pots. Glynn was red, Maurice black, Leslie blue and Phyllis green. All four were built by the same man, Bertram Topham Hatt, commissioned by the line’s manager, Alfred Wiltshire Dry. Glynn was the oldest of the Coffee Pots, and he and his siblings ran up and down the line, taking goods and passengers where they were needed. They were sometimes aided by a Sentinel steam lorry called Elizabeth who was driven by Bertram… although he wasn’t very good at it! Together, they made quite the inseparable team. One morning, as the Coffee Pots were getting ready for work, Glynn noticed Elizabeth rolling into the yards and coming to a sharp stop. “Watch where you’re driving next time, Bertram!” scolded Elizabeth. “You could have caused me to tip over on my side!” “Many apologies, Elizabeth,” said Bertram, sheepishly stepping down from the

Nose Stuck in a Book Written by Zack Wanzer and Rachel Ravens The Hatt family is one of the most synonymous families on the Island of Sodor. Whenever people think of the Hatts, the first name that comes to mind is Bertram Topham Hatt, chief mechanical engineer for the Tidmouth, Knapford and Elsbridge Light Railway. His son, Charles, is one day destined to become his successor, but he is not Bertram’s only child, or even his oldest. The eldest child of the Hatts was Barbara, a beautiful young woman with curly brown hair. One day, Barbara and Charles were coming into Knapford station in a dark red Sentinel steam lorry named Elizabeth. “Ooh, I do wonder where this goes…” Barbara mused to herself, before feeling a sharp turn. “Oh! Charlie! Keep your eyes on the road! We’re about to turn into the driveway.” “I always keep my eyes out!” he insisted. “Certainly more than what you’re doing right now.” He was referring to the fact that Barbara was reading a book and not looking up at the

TPGC: Keep Your Eyes Peeled (1/20)

The Peel Godred Chronicles Written by Zack Wanzer and Rachel Ravens Out of all the branch lines on the North Western Railway, the one that has received the least amount of attention starts at Killdane before traveling north to Abbey, then Kirk Machan, where it meets with the Culdee Fell Railway, and finally terminates at Peel Godred. This branch line is unique in that it is run exclusively by electric locomotives. The original batch of engines, numbered E1 to E4, are no longer operational on the line, and tragically, there is only one surviving member of the original fleet, but she does have plenty of stories to tell about when she and her two closest friends first arrived on Sodor all those years ago… Volume 1: The Early Days The start of a new decade brought about a great change to Sodor. Back when the Tidmouth, Wellsworth and Suddery Railway was still in operation, they were planning on finishing up some expansions that their former rival company, the Sodor and Mainland, had left

Billy was the one who acted recklessly.” “I guess so,” sighed Mildred. “We’ll have to carry on as best we can without him.” “I know this hurts,” said Leslie, “but what’s important now is that we welcome the newcomers to Sodor.” “Newcomers?!” gasped Phyllis. “The electric engines! When are they coming again?” “Today,” said Edward. “I’m to go and pick them up for the Peel Godred branch.” “Indeed, Edward,” said Mr. Dry. He had come to the sheds while the engines were talking about Billy’s unfortunate demise. “I will admit that under different circumstances,” the controller went on, “it would be regarded as too soon to bring in another engine or two with

Since entering service, each of the electric engines was assigned to a duty on their branch line. Lisa would handle the passenger runs with Ashley, Melanie and Jess, taking passengers who wanted to travel up the Culdee Fell Railway. Carole, the strongest of the trio, was in charge of the goods traffic from Peel Godred and would often bring trucks for the steam engines to take from Killdane. As for Stevie, she was usually left to shunt their trains, although she was occasionally allowed on extra passenger runs for busy days. However, they weren’t frequent enough for her liking, and she wanted to go out and see the rest of the branch line more often. “It’s not much fun being left in the yards all the time,” she muttered. “I don’t like being stuck in one place.” “In case you haven’t realized, Stevie,” said Carole, “we’re all sort of in the same boat. We can’t go beyond Killdane.” “But I don’t see any boats, and we’re not inside of one,” said Stevie. “At least, not after we’ve arrived

Of the electric engines, Lisa was the most docile and friendly. Perhaps that had been why she had been chosen for passenger traffic over her honoree sister, Carole. Of course, like anyone, Lisa did have her limits. One day, Lisa was waiting at a red signal. Usually an annoyance to most engines, but not today, for this signal was right at the horse trail, and her friends were going by on their faithful steeds. “Good day, Lisa,” greeted Lara. “How are you?” “Feeling fantastic,” said Lisa. “Just yesterday, I heard from the stationmaster at Abbey station that her son’s getting married within the next few weeks.” “That is lovely news indeed,” said Keenan. “We were just on our way down to the creek with the horses.” “Oh, I hope they have a good drink while they’re there,” said Lisa. “I wonder who’ll win the race this time.” “Belle is the fastest horse in cross country riding,” said Sophie. “We have this one in the bag.” “In your dreams, Sophie,” remarked Keenan.

Heading to my own wedding on your train! Pity that Annie and Clarabel are being serviced right now; that would be even better.” The coaches that Mildred was pulling were non-sentient. “Well, Railway Girl, we’ll be there faster than you can say ‘Winnie-the-Pooh’,” Mildred chuckled. But unfortunately, the dark red tank engine didn’t get very far. The line between Wellsworth and Suddery was built on a slope, and as she began to descend it, the coupling between her and the first coach came loose. “Bouncing buffers!” cried Mildred. At first, the gap between her and the coaches widened, but as the coaches started rolling down the slope, they gradually began to pick up speed. “Driver, quick!

Carole, what’s been going on at your end?” The purple electric engine glanced over at Bertram and Colin. “Oh… er… we’re preparing for Christmas too. So much to do, and everything.” “Are you okay, Carole?” asked Colin. “Of course I am,” said Carole, trying to smile. “Everyone’s always busy at this time of year.

SeventyVerse Updates: January 2024

6 min read

It's been a while since I've done a full length journal! As it's the new year of 2024, I think it's only right that I give you all an update as to what to expect from the SeventyVerse this year. Or at least, as much as I can get finished. So, here they are, in no particular order: Series 6-7 Redux: Part 2 Don't worry, I haven't abandoned it. It's just been on the backburner while I focused on other projects. Rest assured, once I get back to it, I'll finally be able to complete the classic era of Thomas and move onto projects that take place after this. The first story will be an adaptation of Toby Had a Little Lamb, and it will conclude, much like the actual Series 7, with Three Cheers for Thomas. Series 8-12 Redux The rewrites of Series 1-4 episodes all comprise of Phase 1 of Classic Sodor Adventures, and Series 5-7 - as well as Magic Railroad and Jack and the Pack - comprise of Phase 2. As you can tell, Series 8-12 will make up Phase 3, as will Calling All Engines and The Great

Queen's Greatest Hits - Revised Track Listings

1 min read

A little something I came up with regarding Queen's Greatest Hits trilogy, done in the style of the Beatles' 1962-1966/Red and 1967-1970/Blue. I could do more like this for artists with extensive back catalogs.

To anyone out there who might have listened to Genesis - or at least, the solo work of Peter Gabriel and/or Phil Collins - does anyone know of a fitting song from them that could fit Gordon? It's for a playlist that I'm working on, and I'll need a song from them since I consider Gordon to be a fan of Genesis.

Hey Zack? I have an AU to show you.

This is a "What If" Scenario of Escape! Explain your thoughts on it.

Good morning Zack. I'm sorry for confusing you and making you feel like I was trying to force something down your neck. I was only trying to help you with the idea of somebody coming from a broken home and finding a new life a better life while avoiding a life of crime.

That was what I was asking for in the first place.

Well in that case how do you feel about an orphaned girl from India, China, or Indonesia raised by four Tender Engines, two switcher tugs and an ocean tugboat.
