Summary

One day Thomas was delivering some pipes, and Hiro was there, so he went with Thomas. On the way Thomas didn't slow down at the bend, and the pipes all came crashing off. Hiro hit one of the pipes and came off the rails.

Edward soon came with Rocky to clean up the mess, but Hiro had to go to the Steam Works. That night at the shed's Thomas was worried that Hiro wouldn't be fixed like when Thomas first found him. So the next morning Thomas went to the woods to look for Hiro's old spare part's, but didn't find any.

Thomas got stuck at the end of the old track, and let out steam that Harold soon saw, so he went to get help. Percy soon came with Rockey and Sir Topham Hatt to rescue Thomas. The same deer came by frighting Sir Topham Hatt, but then they all laughed.

The next day Thomas was at the Steam Works being fixed with Hiro, Thomas told Hiro his story about the woods. Then they were both fixed, and Hiro explained that the Steam Works kept extra spare part's for Hiro in case he ever broke down again. Then Thomas and Hiro went out for a run.

My Thoughts

I really like the animation of the woods in this episode, and they always do a good job with the animals and sunset as well.
