Mr. Baldwin in his car
When the engines on Sodor heard about it, they couldn't stop talking about it.
"I wonder if there are trains on there like us." 说 Thomas.
"If there are, they can't be as fast as me." Boasted Gordon.
"And they certainly won't have nicer looks like me." Bragged James.
"Duh, I like muffins." 说 Henry. All the engines gave him weird looks.
"I'd like to see what it looks like." Puffed Percy.
"Me too." Agreed Duck.
"It certainly would be cool to see the new island." 说 Sean.
Later, Sir Tophamm Hat arrived, and gave the engines their assignments. Shortly after they left, a big white car stopped near Sir Tophamm Hat's car. One person stepped out, but the driver stuck out a microphone. "Hello, 或者 as 你 British people would say, 'Good Day.' My name is Mr. Baldwin, and I would like a word with you."
"About what?" Asked Sir Tophamm Hat?
The man that stepped out of the car spoke next, "Mr. Baldwin wishes to buy a few of your engines."
Meanwhile, the same thing happened on Mr. Percival's Railway. Mr. Percival was signing papers 由 his bicycle, when a man in a black suit appeared. "Good morning. May I have a word with you?"
"Certainly." Replied Mr. Percival nervously, "What about?"
"I understand 你 have an engine named Makenzie." How much is she worth?"
Back on Sir Tophamm Hat's railway, Sean, Nikki, and Victoria were bringing passengers into Knapford. "Interesting how Sir Tophamm Hat has the three of us bringing in passengers at the same time." 说 Sean.
"Knapford is a busy place." Remarked Nikki.
"Almost as busy as New York City." 说 Victoria, but Sean, thought that wasn't true. "Being an engine that's taken trains into the Big City before, I know how busy it gets. Especially at Grand Central Station."
Sir Tophamm Hat came to see the three engines. "I'd like 你 three to go to Tidmouth Sheds at once." So they did. Mr. Baldwin was still in his car when the three engines arrived. "Excellent. 你 are Sean, Nikki, and Victoria, correct?"
"Yes sir." Replied the engines.
"Then 你 are the ones that I want. Are 你 familiar with the Island Of Errol?"
"I heard about it, but I never went there." 说 Sean.
"That's where the three of 你 are going. From now on, 你 work on my railway. Now go to the wharf, and collect Makenzie. She'll be waiting on a flatcar. Once 你 get her, go to the docks."
"Right away." 说 the engines. They went to the wharf, where Mr. Percival was waiting with Makenzie on the flatbed. Sean coupled up to the front, while the two female engines coupled up on the back. "Well done 你 three. Now take us to the docks." 说 Mr. Percival.
Sean blew his horn as he pulled the flatcar to Brendam Docks. Nikki, and Victoria pushed from behind.
When they arrived at the docks, Sir Tophamm Hat, and some of his engines were waiting. There were Thomas, Percy, James, Gordon, Duck, Oliver, Bill, Ben, Salty, and Porter.
"Have fun on The Island Of Errol." 说 Thomas cheerfully.
"First Gator leaves, now 你 three." 说 Percy sadly.
"Hey, 你 forgot about me." Remarked Makenzie.
"Oops. Sorry."
Before Sean was being loaded onto the ship, he spoke to Gordon. "The express is all yours. I never did replace you."
"Sir Tophamm Hat was right after all." 说 Gordon with relief.
Sean 说 goodbye to the other engines before Cranky loaded him onto the ship. Of course, he needed help from two other cranes since Sean weighed a lot. "You Americans are too heavy!" Shouted Cranky, "But I'm sorry to see 你 go."
下一个 to be loaded onto the ship, were Nikki, Victoria, and Makenzie respectively. The ship left the docks, and the engines went back to work.
"What's wrong Gordon?" Asked Thomas.
"Even though I was jealous about that Amtrak diesel, I'm going to miss him."
"Me too Gordon. Me too. In fact, I'm going to miss them all."
The End
