Plot[]

A new diesel shunter has arrived on the island. Sidney is very forgetful. While Duck and Oliver debate whether or not to introduce themselves, Frank and Mike try to explain the ballast chute, which does not get past the introduction of the two small engines. Sidney does not realize where he is, so he races away to push ballast trucks. Frank began to rant about how diesels are given a bad name by engines like Sidney, to which Mike finds "adorable". Duck asks the engines if he is nice. Mike cites it as 'someone in the cab, but no one at the controls'. Later, Oliver saw Sidney shunting some coal wagons. Oliver asked him how he is getting along. Sidney, still, has no idea where he is. The Little Western Branch and The Arlesdale Railway engines arranged a meeting concerning Sidney. Douglas trinks he is a great addition because of his comedic flair. Oliver shut them all up by stating that he is not a useless engine. Frank was loading Sidney with ballast at the chute, but Sidney had no idea where to stop, covering him with ballast. Frank tried his hardest not to be offensive. Later, Douglas got stranded on a hill. Sidney was dispatched to help him. After accidentally mixing up the twins, they set off. Douglas tried to give Sidney directions, but they missed the points. Suddenly, Oliver raced by, derailing off the hill. Sidney's small mistake had saved him and Oliver from a horrific crash. Sidney may never be aware of what happened, but that makes it more magnificent.
