Rheneas has trouble with slippery rails, Peter Sam tells of getting sick in Wales, and the newest engine joins the team.

Taking up where his famous father left off in the 1970s, Christopher Awdry has published a total of 14 storybooks set in the wonderful world of Thomas the Tank Engine. This volume brings them all together for the first time, and adds four new, specially commissioned stories: "Overloaded", "Avalanche", "Eels on Wheels" and "Toby's Vintage Train". The steam age is alive and well on the Island of Sodor!

While Thomas is being repaired after his pride gets him in trouble, a very difficult diesel engine named Daisy replaces him and causes Percy to make a mistake with the trucks.

A visit from the City of Truro, a famous diesel engine, has Duck feeling proud and Gordon feeling envious, but when a new diesel causes trouble, Duck has to prove himself.
