Using his whistle to make duck noises, Hiro helps Percy. Then, he finds Percy, who can't get the ducks back inside their boxes. Hiro decides to sort out his muddle for the Fat Controller, so he tells Edward and Thomas to go to Knapford station where the Fat Controller will give them his orders. Hiro feels very bad and rather silly he's hadn't been the "Master of the Railway" - he'd been the "Master of the Muddle"! Hiro tells the Fat Controller that he didn't want to bother him, and the Fat Controller reminds Hiro that he is in charge of the Railway. Edward's visitors are suppose to be at the Town Hall for a concert Thomas is suppose to be at the Town Hall with the tables and chairs and Farmer McColl is waiting for his ducks. Hiro thinks he is doing a good job until he sees the Fat Controller, on his way back from the meeting looking very cross. Finally, Hiro finds Percy taking ducks, who want to go for a swim so, Hiro tells Percy to take the Fenlan Track so that the ducks can have a swim. Later, Hiro finds Thomas taking tables and chairs, but he doesn't know where to take them so Hiro tells Thomas to go and visit Farmer Trotter. Hiro decides to help Edward, so as not to bother the Fat Controller and tells Edward to take his visitors to the hills. The Fat Controller has a meeting to attend with the Thin Controller and he doesn't listen to Edward who tries to ask him where to take his visitors from Brendam Docks. Edward arrives and, like Hiro, is quite worried about the Fat Controller's unusual behaviour. Hiro arrives at Knapford station to find the Fat Controller very busy so busy in fact that the Fat Controller leaves his top-hat inside his office and bumps into the stationmaster and a porter. Once the Lion of Sodor looks very clean, Thomas takes Toby's advice to a short-cut via the windmill to get back to Knapford station, where the Mayor of Sodor is very pleased to see the new statue. Taking advice from Henry and Edward, Thomas gets it cleaned at the wash-down and then polished at the Sodor Steamworks. Feeling silly, Thomas agrees to get the statue clean. Thomas' cargo was the new statue of the Lion. The Fat Controller and Henry explain that the Lion of Sodor was a special statue which got broken. Thomas feels very silly and owns up to what he thought of his cargo. When Thomas arrives at Knapford station, the crate is opened up and everyone is shocked to see the Lion of Sodor in a terrible mess. Throughout his journey to Knapford, Thomas decides to make sure that the lion is well fed and comfortable, so he collects syrup from Henry, fish from Edward, and straw from Toby, which are all placed inside the crate. However, he thinks his cargo is a real lion, so he decides to take extra care of it. Thomas is given the job of transporting a crate containing a very special statue called The Lion of Sodor. That night, Thomas decides to clear the rubble out of the way. Stanley, however, realises that Thomas merely missed his friends, and wants to set things right. The Fat Controller states that this will likely set back the restoration past Sodor Day, and Thomas is blamed. Later, Thomas is shunting stone trucks for Stanley to take away when he decides to make Stanley look foolish by giving him a train too heavy for him to pull, but the plan backfires - as Stanley ascends the hill, a coupling breaks and the trucks race down the hill, veering into a siding and crashing into the newly-finished standpipe. Thomas is furious when Stanley takes his place at Tidmouth Sheds, and the final straw comes when Stanley takes his place as the leader of the restoration project after Thomas has an accident. Thomas is told to take charge of the engines working around the town, while a new tank engine named Stanley is brought to do Thomas' regular jobs.Īll of the engines take to Stanley, who does a good job and has fun as well, but when Thomas sees Stanley doing his jobs and fraternising with his friends, he becomes jealous. The Fat Controller decides that the restoration of the legendary lost town would be perfect for Sodor Day, and calls the Pack to help. The news of Thomas' discovery spreads, and eventually reaches the Fat Controller, who tells Thomas that the town is Great Waterton - the largest town on Sodor when steam engines first came to the island. After avoiding an old, collapsing bridge, Thomas takes another route at the old junction, and as he journeys farther down the line, he comes across an old overgrown town. After Thomas teases Duncan, Duncan pays Thomas out by sending him on an old, disused line which he claims will lead Thomas back to the wharf faster. Thomas wins, and is sent into the hills to collect lumber with Duncan. The railway is preparing for Sodor Day and Thomas and James are racing to the wharf to be given a special job by Mr.
