 Plot

 Review 

This is my first episode review from the old model series, so let's start. I really liked the tired out faces on both Thomas and Gordon, but the checks where a little to puffed out.

The cart that the worker was holding at the plat form looked like the same one in A Scarf for Percy. The turn table was a little slow, but I guess they are slow.

Why wasn't Gordon tired pulling the train when he stayed up and Thomas was too tired to shunt after a long night's sleep? That part of the episode was strange.

 I give this episode a 8/10
