Summary

There was a new arrival on Sodor, he was a crane named Harvey, the other engines thought he looked strange. Then Sir Top Ham Hatt said tomorrow Harvey would give a demonstration for the railway board. That night the engines were discussing how Harvey was different, he didn't like it.

The next day Harvey told Sir Top Ham Hatt the other engines didn't like him, he said being different was what made his useful. Latter Percy was having trouble with the trucks on the branch line, they derailed and blocked the road under Bulgy's Bridge.

Sir Top Ham Hatt called Harvey to clear up the mess, Bertie happened to be there with the railway board, and they thought the clean up was the perfect demonstration, and Sir Top Ham Hatt said Harvey could stay on his railway. That night the engines told Harvey he did a good job.

My Own Thoughts

I don't have much to say about this episode, but why did Sir Top Ham Hatt have the railway board do a demonstration? After all, it's Sir Top Ham Hatt's railway. Also, I liked the background music in this episode.
