Description Douglas makes a second attempt to rescue another steam engine, only to be met with a depressing update to the diesel yard.


As you probably noticed this comic is drawn a little differently to all the rest, as it's inspired by the more 'abstract' sketches by NERailwayArtist (especially his lulzworthy Thomas and Gordon comic!)


Enjoy.

Your welcome. For some reason, a lot of people think Stepney is pronounced Stephanie, when it is really Step-nee

Of course at during that time there were diesels that smoked about as much as a steamer.

KH990j In reply to gh22 [2013-02-14 20:53:09 +0000 UTC]

Or even some of the diesels they used over there smoked quite a bit such as this class 37 during a cold start. [link]

Did the diesels take over the scrapyard?

That would explain the NO SMOKING sign quite easily.

I guess that's why Douglas told Rusty "these days it's only diesels to go there" in the Season 4 Episode "Rusty to the Rescue".
