"Can you keep a secret, Thomas?" "Of course." "I'm a replica engine," said Stephen proudly. "There was a famous engine called Rocket who looked like me, but he got too old to work. He was retired to a comfortable museum where he can have a good rest. They made me as a stand-in."

Thomas was misbehaving. No matter how many times he was inspected, oiled, or pushed along, he would not start. The big model railway show was the next day at 10am. "Oh dear," said The Vicar, "I suppose I shall have to use Spare Thomas instead!"

The brewery on Thomas' branch line has a small yard for loading barrels. A steam lorry called Elizabeth handles local deliveries, and the railway takes them further away. But one day, a rude lorry had taken Elizabeth's place. "Blimey, another kettle getting in my way", he moaned.

In the cold air, the children's breath came out as fleeting clouds of vapour. They darted around the school yard, blowing great streams of mist up, pretending to be trains. "Look Rheneas," they called, "now we're just like you." On his way up to the Top Station, Rheneas tried it!
