    Here is where I'll be posting my Thomas fan fictions, as I have like Thomas for a long time now. Here my first completed one I did back in 2005.

    Thomas Has A Sister


    It was a bright and sunny day on the Island of Sodor. Thomas was puffing along his branch line with his two coaches, Annie and Clarabel. The Fat Controller was waiting for him. "Yes, sir," said Thomas, "What is it, sir?" "Your doing well on your branch line, but you do need help," explained the Fat Controller. "You're right, sir," said Thomas, "But what can we do?" "We can bring in another engine from England," explained the Fat Controller, "But it may take a while." "Yes, Sir," said Thomas. A few days later, Thomas saw a old tank engine on a flat truck. "What?!" exclaimed Thomas. The engine was pink, with four small driving wheels, with two small front wheels, and with tanks over it's wheels. "It's my old sister," he exclaimed. "Thomas?" asked the engine, "is that you?" "Yes," said Thomas. Soon they were chatting like old friends, and they really are friends. They've worked together when they were first created in 1915. In 1940, Thomas went to Sodor, while the other engine went away to Buckingham Palace as 5 new engines were introduced. Soon, Thomas pushed the Engine to his branch line, still chatting. Henry was surprised to see Thomas talking to a new engine so quickly. He was so distracted he rammed into his trucks and send them flying through the buffers and crashed into a building. The person in the building was cross. "You clumsy engine!" he scolded. Out in the valley, Thomas was still chattering about his adventures to the engine. At last, Thomas was at his branch line. A crane lifted the engine off the truck, and the engines on the branch line wanted to meet her. "My name is Sara," said the engine. "Wlcome to The Island Of Sodor," said Percy, "I'm Percy." "My name is Toby," called Toby, and the others introduced themselves. Sara felt happy to be back with Thomas. They had been separated for a very long time. Soon, Thomas began to show Sara what's life like on Sodor. They've showed her all the beautiful forest and valleys on Thomas' Branch Line. They've showed her the lake. Then they've shown her the peaceful river that runs along the branch line. Then they showed her the station where Thomas and the other engines collect passengers from the Main Line trains. "Watch out for those main line trains," warned Thomas, "Especially Gordon. Last week I caught him taking a passenger train from James when he was suppose to pull trucks. Then James was the one who pulled the trucks." "Number 67," explained Percy, "Look out for those troublesome trucks. They can be silly and annoy you." Sara decided to teach the trucks a lesson. Then she and Thomas and Percy went to the Quarry, where they met Mavis and Fergus. They were happy to see a new engine. "Just watch out for Bill and Ben, the twins," warned Mavis. "They are troublesome engines," continued Fergus, "Last week, they've rammed into James with 20 trucks. James had to go to the works after that with bent buffers! He was wondering what happened to his coaches." Sara also decided to teach the twins a lesson. Then, after that the engines went back to their sheds. Sara was told that she can stay on Sodor. Importantly, Sara was glad to be with Thomas again. Thomas was glad, too.
     
    Okay, since no one's posting in this thread, I'll put another story here.


    Edward And Emily

    It was Summer time on Sodor. All The Engines are working very hard. Percy is delivering trucks of grapes. Henry is pulling trucks full of logs, and Arthur is pulling 10 vans of fish. One day, Salty was talking to Arthur. "Be careful on the mail line, " warned Salty, "There is something dangerous on the tracks ahead." "Don't worry about me," protested Arthur, "I can take care of myself." After Cranky loads the flat trucks full of fish, Arthur steamed off. "Look out on the main line!" warned Salty. Arthur was puffing along. "I must get there on time, I must get there on time," puffed Arthur. He passed Emily. As he did, there was a sliding, groaning sound. Then there was trouble! The rails broke, and Arthur was heading towards Sara's Vans. Arthur smashed into the vans. The vans and trucks exploded grapes and fish everywhere. Arthur and Sara were in a terrible mess! The Fat Controller Sent Arthur to be mended and Sara to get cleaned. The Fat Controller asked Henry to do Arthur's work and Emily to work at the lumberyards. Emily was then taking log trucks to the lumberyards. Edward was doing Sara's work at the Farms. "I find logs dull!" complained Emily, but Emily had to do the job. Emily took logs to the sawmills. Then she took more logs to Farmer McCole's farm. Emily was beginning to get mad. Then Henry bumped into Emily. "Oops," said Henry, "Sorry about that." "Sorry?!" Shouted Emily, "You should be doing this job instead of me! Maybe I should take the fish instead!" "But the Fat Controller gave out his order," replied Henry, "He told me to do Arthur's work, and he told you to do my work. That's the Fat Controller's orders." Emily steamed away. Then Emily came to a big hill. When Emily began to climb it, she was fast loosing steam. "I can do it, I can do it," she puffed. But she got stuck halfway up the hill. But then Edward came up behind Emily. "I think you need a push," said Edward. "Yes, but also, I need a better job," replied Emily. So Edward pushed behind Emily and together, they got the log train over the hill. As they delivered the logs, Emily and Edward decide to switch jobs. Edward did the logging and Emily did Edward's jobs. Emily was happy to shunt trucks, pull passenger trains and be a back engine. But one thing, Emily always work with Thomas.
     
    Well, here is another Thomas story I did 2 months ago.


    Thomas Goes Foreign

    Thomas has worked on his branch lines for many years now. But he may have an adventure. On that day, Thomas took his favorite coaches, Annie and Clarabel to Culdee Fell station, where Culdee took most of Thomas' passengers up in the rocky mountains. Then, Thomas took his remaining passengers to Kirkronan Station, where Duck took them to Arlesdale railway. Thomas returned to his branch line where Daisy was waiting. "Thomas, where the brakes have you been?" Thomas didn't answer; he puffed to his shed. Toby and Percy were already in the sheds when Thomas came in. "Thomas," said Toby, "You did great on getting a lot of passengers to their stations." Thomas didn't answer, so Toby and Percy set out to do their jobs. When Thomas puffed to the coaling plant, Emily was already to take coal to the power plant. "Thomas, I'm ready to go now," but Thomas didn't relply, so Emily blew her whistle that made Thomas jumped. "Who what where how?" studdered Thomas. "Thomas, is there something wrong?" asked Emily. "Yes," said Thomas, "I wish for an adventure. I hadn't had one since I was still working on my old railway." Emily said, "You'll have an adventure one day, just be patient." So Thomas went with Emily, but he still thought of having an adventure. But Diesel was nearby, and he heard what Thomas and Emily said. So he made a plan. He told Dodge and Splatter to set up a trap for Thomas. "Number one train had to go first," sneered Diesel, "Diesel 10 will love me." Then a few hours later when Thomas was at Knapford, he was waiting for another train to take his last passengers back to England. But the stationmaster had bad news. "The engine that was suppose to take Thomas' passengers home had derailed," he explained. The Fat Controller was concerned. "No other engine is here to take the passengers home, unless-." He turned to Thomas and said, "Thomas, can you go to England to take these passengers home?" "Yes, I can!" Shouted Thomas. With full steam, Thomas set off for England. He was getting his adventure after all. Thomas raced by Vicarstown. There was a man standing at the station. When Thomas raced by, the wind created by Thomas' speed took the man's hair with him. "Hey, that's my hair!" shouted the man. A boy was standing there and said, "You lost your hair." Thomas rushed to the othe railway, never stopping. Then, finaly, he made it to London. But dodge and Splatter were suppose to trap him, but they didn't, because they didn't know when t o trap him. They were suppose to crash truck into him. Then, Thomas left back for Sodor as soon his passengers were dropped off. Even then, Dodge and Splatter didn't trap him. Thomas returned home and said, "I had a adventure!" "Well congratulaitons, Thomas," said Toby. Thomas just smiled. The guy at Vicarstown came and said, "Um, can I have my hair back, please?" Thomas' driver grabbed the hair out from Thomas' side rods and gave it to the man. Then, it fell into pieces, but the man didn't notice. He left. Meanwhile Diesel shouted at Dodge and Splatter. "You two failed me and Diesel 10, and you were suppose to hit Thomas the blue truck when he came and/or leaved," Diesel shouted. "Um, you didn't tell us when to strike," said Dodge. Diesel chased Dodge and Splatter and then, they all derailed. Oh, well for them. But Thomas, Emily, Percy and Toby were happy, especially Thomas.
     
    Okay, I shall post another Thomas story I had just finished now.



    The Stack

    It was a sunny day on The Island Of Sodor. Skarloey was puffing along with his favorite coaches. One day, Skarloey stopped by Peter Sam at the water tower. "Hello, Peter Sam," said Skarloey. "Oh hello old boy," yawned Peter Sam. "What have you been doing?" asked Skarloey. "Oh, just some troublesome trucks dealing for 15 hours last night," replied Peter Sam, yawning. "Maybe I'll do your jobs today and you can go and get some sleep," said Skarloey. "Okay," said Peter Sam, yawning. Skarloey set off. Skarloey went to the incline first. This was Peter Sam's first job. Skarloey waited for the loaded truck at the bottom. But the loaded trucks decided to play a trick. "Faster!" they cried, "Pull!" They broke the coupling and rolled down the hill towards Skarloey! Skarloey decided not to move. He tried to ram the trucks. Big mistake. There was a loud crash. Skarloey's driver ducked to avoid injury. Skarloey was in a terrible condition. Rusty came in time to see Skarloey all beaten up. There were slate pieces all over the place. Rusty helped to clear the mess and Skarloey was sent for repairs. The Thin Controller knew that Skarloey was doing Peter Sam's work because he was tired from last night. The Thin Controller came to see Peter Sam. "Peter Sam, I understand that you are tired, but you have a lot of work to do, and you know they're important," he said. "Yes, sir," said Peter Sam, "But what happened to Skarloey?" "He had an accident and everyone needs you," replied the Thin Controller. "Yes, sir!" said Peter Sam, still yawning. He set to work immediately. He collected the slate trucks and bashed them for causing Skarloey an accident. Then he took come holiday-makers for a trip around the lake. Then, he picked up passengers from Henry. He took them for a trip around the lake. Then he took them for a tour in the mountains. Then the last job, he took coal to the power plants. Peter Sam felt tired even more. Then when he went back to the sheds, he found Skarloey at the works. "Hello, Skarloey," yawned Peter Sam. "Hello," said Skarloey, "Sorry about today, I was stupid." "It's okay, accidents happen," yawned Peter Sam, "and I remember my accident at the slate mines a long time ago." Yep, Peter Sam still remembers his accident at the slate hills that damaged his funnel. "I guess were even now," said Peter Sam. "Yes, we are," said Skarloey. "Well, see you tomorrow," said Peter Sam as he head off for home. Once he went to his shed, he had fell fast asleep. Sir Handel, Rheneas and Duncan came to the sheds to see Peter Sam fast asleep. "He snores more than you, Sir Handel," said Duncan. "GRRR!!!!!" growled Sir Handel. "I guess he had done a lot today," said Rheneas. "He did," said Rusty. The little engine had left Peter Sam alone for his good day's rest. He deserves it, doesn't he? Well, what Peter Sam had dreamt was the last moments he had worked with his old funnel and the time he had his accident and the time he got his new funnel.

    I will be happy if someone post a reply here.
     
    From what I read, they're quite alright. They're filling me with Nostalgia over years gone by.
     
    Alright! Someone has made a post here! Thanks! And now, here is the next story. Even though I don't know what Nostalgia is.


    And Now This

    It was a sunny day on the Island of Sodor and Duke was puffing through the forest. He was happy. It reminds him of the old days. Then Sir Handel came up. "Hello, Grandpuff, are you in a bright mood?" he asked. "Look, I said you and Stuart call me Duke from now on," replied Duke. "Uh, Peter Sam is Stuart," protested Sir Handel, "See you later!" And Sir Handel puffed away. "You engines are crazier than ever!" said Duke. And he chuffed away. A few hours later, Skarloey was taking some trucks to the quarry. Then, there was trouble. One of his trucks broke its wheels. It came off the rails. Skarloey felt a lot of bumps. He realized it was coming from his trucks. "Driver! Stop!" shouted Skarloey. His driver stopped the train. He checked one of the trucks. He found that a wheel axle on the 4th truck from the engine had broken apart. "I never like these trucks," he said. He telephoned for help. Peter Sam arrived with the breakdown crane and the broken truck was removed from Skarloey's train. And then, he set off again. Then were was trouble again. Skarloey was crossing an old wooden bridge when the rails broke apart from underneath him. Skarloey fell through the bridge dangling dangerously. "Help!" he cried. The trucks giggled and giggled. Duke was resting in his shed. He was remembering the time he pulled Sir Handel who was named Falcon on the rails after he dangled from a cliff. He was glad until he was woken up by the Thin Controller. "Skarloey has had an accident," he explained. "We must save him," said Duke as his engine rattled along. He found Skarloey dangling from the bridge. "Hang on, Skarloey!" Duke called out. Remembering the time he saved Sir Handel, Duke was determined to save Skarloey. Duke was coupled to Skarloey's train and he heaved and pulled and strained. Skarloey started to go up. Duke pulled as hard as he could until Skarloey was off the bridge safely. "Thank you Duke," he sighed. And they puffed slowly home. Later, Duke was telling Skarloey the time he saved Sir Handel from falling. "Not keeping a good look-out," he said. "Yes, he was looking towards the mountains and not keeping eye on the tracks," sighed Duke. "There was something on the tracks!" cried Sir Handel. But the three engines had a good time talking about the day when Duke saved Sir Handel's life. Skarloey was impressed. He remembered the time he was dangling off a bridge before. And the memories made him smile.
     
    Here is my next Thomas Story.


    Number Diesels

    It was a sunny day on the island of sodor. All the Fat Controller's Engines were working hard keeping the railway very busy. But one morning, Henry and Gordon were feeling hot. Their drivers and firemens examined them. "You two need help," they said at last. Henry and Gordon were relieved. The Fat Controller called for two engines from the other railway to help out. Until Henry and Gordon saw whom the engines were. They were both blue diesel engines. The diesels looked at Henry and Gordon. "Steam engines," said one of them, "A mess for our sight." The diesels only had numbers. One was 199 and the other was 7101. Henry and Gordon were cross. But the Fat Controller made his decision, so there was nothing they could do about it. The two diesels took Henry and Gordon's trains. But instead of a smooth ride, the diesels were rough and gave the trains a bumpy ride. Henry and Gordon had to help the diesels out. They didn't like it at all. "Smelly engines," muttered Gordon. When the work was done, Henry and Gordon were grumbling about the diesels. "They're nothing but creeps," said Henry to James, Donald and Douglas. "Hey, don't forget, there are some diesels that are friendly like Daisy, Boco, Rusty and Mavis. But Gordon and Henry grumbled for the rest of the night. But then their chance came. 199 was pulling a goods train along the main line. "This is really easy," he boasted. But then there was trouble. A car was accidentally parked on the line. 199 was heading towards the car. "Well, this is going to be-," he said until he saw the car. "Stop these trucks!" 199 shouted. But the trucks pushed 199 towards the car. "On! On! On!" they shouted. 199's driver hold well for the impact. Then, 199's brakes blew out as he hit the car. It flipped into the air and smashed onto another car. 199 came off the rails violently as well as ripping the rails apart. No one was hurt. The two cars were empty. The guard put detonators behind the brake van to warn other engines. "This is insane!" cried 199. Soon, Henry brought the breakdown train. The workmen and Henry cleared away the trucks and soon helped 199 back onto the rails. "Man, you're very heavy!" groaned Henry as he pulled 199 back onto the rails. "It's not me," protested 199, "It's that my brakes hare jammed on." Henry began to feel sorry for 199. "Look I'm sorry I complained about you and your friend," he said. "That's okay," 199 replied, "And I'm sorry I made rude remarks about your railway." The fitters loosened 199's brakes and Henry pulled him to the works. Meanwhile 7101 had his own problems. He was running along the main line when he heard a loud crash. "What's that?!" he growled. One of his pipes in his engine broke and thus, he is leaving a huge trail of oil. It made the rails slippery. "I can't stop!!!" cried 7101. Then there was another problem. 7101 lurched off the rails and he sped onto the roads. "Watch out!" cried Bertie as he dodged 7101. Then, 7101 crashed into a wall. The trucks turned over and were crushed. "Help," cried 7101 weakly. Gordon was running along the main line, until he came to the oily rails. "Looks like a diesel is in trouble," he thought and he carefully chuffed onto the oily rails. He came to the part where 7101 crashed. "You okay?" asked Gordon. "Yes," replied 7101 weakly. Soon, Harvey and James brought the breakdown cranes. As soon as 7101 was back on the rails, Gordon helped him to the works. They've talked and forgave each other. A few weeks later 199 and 7101 had returned form the works. Then The Fat Controller told Henry and Gordon that they will be staying on the Island of Sodor. Henry and Gordon were happy. The diesels now have names. 199 is named Spamcan and 7101 is named Bear. Henry and Gordon were best friends with them and so are all the other engines.


    Note: Spamcan (AKA 199) and Bear (AKA 7101) were made by the Rev. W Awdry for the Railway Series Book Entersprising Engines.
