Junior: Come on, Lily.

(Junior, Lily, and Thomas' crew walk up to Mr. Conductor who gives Junior a slight glare)

Junior: Hey, cous. What's up? Enjoying the sun?

Mr. Conductor: (firmly) No, Junior. I am not. In fact, I just landed here after escaping a heavy metal monster where he almost dropped me out to the viaduct and been thrown to this place and his plan is to destroy the buffers with the help of George the steamroller. Junior, where have you been?

Thomas: Uh, is your sparkle back, Mr. Conductor?

Mr. Conductor: (looks over to Thomas) No, Thomas. It isn't... (looking over to Junior and Lily) ...but I do know the clue.

(Junior, Lily and Thomas' crew smile with surprise. Junior walks over to Mr. Conductor and kneels on a flour sack in front of him)

Mr. Conductor: Stoke up the magic in the mountain...eh... (snaps his fingers) darn!

Thomas: Dither!

Ashima: Dang!

Junior: Hey, cous. You're looking terrible. Why don't we get more gold dust 'cause I used yours up. Then you can go back home and I can go back to the beach.

Mr. Conductor: Junior, I want you to listen to me very carefully...

(Bellflower ringing interrupts Mr. Conductor's speech)

Thomas and Ashima: Uh oh.

Ant and Dec: Spoiler alert!

Mr. Conductor: I'll get that (rises over to the bellflower before Junior picks it up for him)

Junior: (speaking into the bellflower) Hello.

Sir Topham Hatt: Hello, are you Mr. Conductor?

Junior: No. This is his cousin.

Sir Topham Hatt: Then why are you on the phone?

(Mr. Conductor gives Junior gestures to hand him the bellflower)

Junior: Who's this?

Sir Topham Hatt: The name you know is Sir Topham Hatt.

Junior: (using a British accent) Hello, hatty.

(Lily looks over to Thomas' crew who both have their hands up)

Sir Topham Hatt: Are you making fun at me?

Junior: (using a British accent) No. No, no, no. He's hanging around here somewhere. (smiles and hands the phone to Mr. Conductor)

Mr. Conductor: Yes, Sir Topham Hatt, sir.

Sir Topham Hatt: Conductor, why is this person on the phone to make fun of me.

Mr. Conductor: No, he just wanted to be friendly.

Sir Topham Hatt: So you're saying he acts like a dog.

Mr. Conductor: No, he is not a dog.

Sir Topham Hatt: Then what is he?

Mr. Conductor: (looking at Junior) Well, let's just say he's a puppy in need of a good trainer. (knocks Junior to the ground who then looks at the windmill) Nothing to worry about, sir. Goodbye, sir. (hangs up and gives Junior a glare)

Junior: Cous, this is Lily. (pointing to Lily) She's staying with Grandpa Stone.

Mr. Conductor: (walking over to Lily and shaking his hand) Hello, Lily.

(Noo-Noo and Brum sniffs around but his tail gets caught on the windmill)

Lily: Hello.

(Ant and Dec walk over to Lily)

Ant: Hey.

(Ant and Dec hold Lily's hand)

Dec: Nice to meet you, Lily.

Lily: Nice to meet you too.

(Junior using the commotion to jump onto the windmill)

Ant: I'm Ant. Him beside me is Dec.

Dec: Yeah. And we host shows like Saturday Night Takeaway and Britain's Got Talent.

Ant: And we have one of the Britain's Got Talent acts here on Sodor.

Dec: That being the MerseyGirls.

(Ant chuckles)

Lily: Cool.

Ant: (Noticing the spot behind Mr. Conductor) Hey, where's Junior?

Mr. Conductor: (looks back at Junior who is missing) Junior? Junior?

Thomas: (Gasps) Guys, look!

Ashima: He's on the windmill!

(Mr. Conductor, Lily, and Thomas' crew look up to hear Junior shouting excitedly on the windmill and Scrat screaming)

Ant: (gasps) And so is Scrat!

Dec: What the heck?!

Lily: Junior?

Mr. Conductor: Junior, what are you doing up there? Come down! It's too windy!

Junior: (looking down) This is just like the fun fair. Give us two seconds. Whoo-hoo!

Mr. Conductor: Two seconds is all it takes for you to land in trouble!

Ant: This ain't good.

Dec: They're gonna go in a second.

(Junior ignores Mr. Conductor and shouts as the wind picks up and the windmill goes faster and faster, sending him and Scrat flying through the air, with the Boys and Tank Engines in awe)

Mr. Conductor: Junior!

(Scrat screams. He then sees the MerseyGirls)

(The scene cuts to the MerseyGirls)

Alice: Look! There's Noo-Noo!

(Noo-Noo lands in Julia's arms)

Julia: Noo-Noo, are you alright?

(Noo-Noo nods)

(Screaming is heard)

Chelsea: Is that.....?

Julia: It's Mr. Conductor's cousin.

Alice: But he's heading straight for.....

MerseyGirls: Diesel 10!

(The scene cuts to Diesel 10)

(Junior lands onto Diesel 10's cab)

Diesel 10: Aha! Twinkle Toes Junior!

Junior: (as his beach bag falls onto the track) Oh no, my beach bag!

Diesel 10: You won't be doing any surfing up here, Mr. Kahuna!

Junior: Really? Watch me. (standing up in a surfer pose)

Diesel 10: Hang on tight, moon doggy! (moves faster)

Junior: Yeeeee-haw!

(Scene cuts back to the windmill with Thomas, Ashima, Ant, Dec, Mr. Conductor, Lily, and Thomas' crew)

Ant: Oh, sh(bleep)t!

Thomas: Diesel 10 hijacked him.

Dec: At least Noo-Noo and Brum's safe.

Lily: What's gonna happen to Junior now?

Mr. Conductor: Well, my family is usually pretty good at getting themselves out of trouble. Eventually.

Thomas: I don't know what eventually means but it sounds very, very long.

Ashima: Kind of. Well... Eventually, Thomas means that...well...well...it means... What does it mean?

Ant: It means that something happens in the end after series of events.

Dec: But Junior will show up soon. It's just like Mr. C. said. Don't worry, Thomas. (giving Thomas a pat on the side)

(Scene cuts to Muffle Mountain where Patch walks up to Burnett. Burnett looks back at him)

Burnett: Where's Lily?

Patch: I wish I knew. I'm sorry, Mr. Stone. She wasn't there at the station when I went back for her.

(Both of them look sad at the disappearance of Lily)

Burnett: It's okay, Patch. We'll find her. (walks away with Patch watching him)

(Patch hears a motorcycling noise coming up the mountain. He watches in surprise as Boomer rides up the mountain on his motorcycle)

Boomer: Good evening, Patch. Enjoying the view of the sunset?

(Patch gasps and runs down the mountain to his horse, Boomer in pursuit on his motorcycle. Patch jumps in his horse and rides away, Boomer riding after him)

Boomer: Slow down, Patch! I only wanna ask a question or two. (cackling)

Patch: Get away from me, Boomer. You'll never know Mr. Stone's whereabouts from me.

Boomer: I already know about Burnett's whereabouts! All I want to know is where that lost engine is! Tell me! now!

Patch: Never! (attempts to lead Boomer to a cliff by driving his horse towards it)

Boomer: (following Patch and not knowing about the cliff ahead of him) Come on, kid! I got a bike full of dynamite and I'll plant some on you and your precious horse unless you tell me where she is!

Patch: Nope! (stops his horse in front of the cliff and watches as Boomer motorcycles off the cliff and onto the ground where his motorcycle smashes into pieces. Dynamite rolls out everywhere, still in one piece)

(Patch looks down as Boomer rises up and looks up at him in frustration)

Boomer: This is isn't over, kid! I'll find that engine and make sure she is history! You and your friend Burnett will be sorry.

(Patch ignores Boomer and rides away with his horse. Boomer grunts and picks up a piece of dynamite)

Boomer: Time to blow that engine's wheels out!

(Scene cuts to nighttime on Sodor where Percy with Emily and Fergus chuff slowly through the countryside to find the magic buffers)

Percy: (to himself) I am brave. I am brave. Thomas says I'm brave so I'm brave. (chuffs through a dark forest) Oh, it's not easy being brave.

Emily: Don't worry Percy, we'll stick with you.

Fergus: Yeah, we're brave engines.

(They chuff to the magic buffers to find Splatter and Dodge)

Percy: Shiver my pistons! There's Splatter and Dodge! They've found the buffers! (stops in front of a set of buffers and sees George rolling by Splatter and Dodge, Percy's crew hopping off to see George with the diesels)

Percy's Driver: Looks like Edward wasn't kidding about George.

Percy's Fireman: I always wondered what the diesels were up to the moment they set chuff on the Island of Sodor.

George: (rolling towards the next set of buffers and stopping by Splatter and Dodge) Turn 'em into roads. Turn 'em into roads.

Splatter: Why, that's your job, George.

Dodge: Yeah, destroy it whenever you can, will ya?

George: No, I don't know if these are the magic buffers or not.

Splatter: It doesn't matter. We're finding the magic buffers.

Dodge: And you're just destroying everyone you see.

George: No, I cannot. I will be in trouble with Sir Topham Hatt when he returns from...

Splatter: Ah, who cares what that worthy Fat Hatt thinks?

Dodge: Yeah, yeah, the boss won't give you that reward if you don't destroy these buffers so do it.

(George sighs and rams over the next buffer)

Splatter: There's a good steamroller.

Dodge: (chuckles) Yeah, yeah.

Percy: Oh, and now what's going to happen?

Emily: Don't be scared, but if we do get scared, we might have been in great danger.

Fergus: You're not scared of the dark forest, Percy.

Dipsy: They don't!

(Crows start flying out of the tree, causing Percy to gasp and a talking tumbleweed flies by and onto another track)

Talking Tumbleweed: Howdy, partner. Coming through. Excuse me.

Po: Look, Not a sound.

(A barn door opens and closes)

Percy: Oh, I think that was something!

Percy's Driver: Something very strange is going on there.

Percy's Fireman: I think it's the best we went back and we warned Thomas and his crew.

Percy's Driver: Good idea.

(Percy's crew hops inside his cab and get him ready to leave)

Splatter: And these must be the buffers where Diesel 10's looking for.

Dodge: Oh, god. Are we supposed to go through them?

Splatter: Not me. You.

Dodge: Eh, eh, this is a job for George. Should we make him destroy them?

Splatter: Nah, let's double check with the boss first that these are the right buffers.

Dodge: Yeah, yeah. Our little friend has done his job for one day.

(owl hoots)

Splatter: Ah, ah, we'll tell him tomorrow.

Tinky Winky: Hey.

(Splatter and Dodge gasp as Tinky Winky, Dipsy, Laa-Laa and Po block their path)

Po: What do you think you're doing?

Splatter: Uh. Nothing.

Dodge: Nothing. Everything's fine.

Percy: (gasps) Let's get out there.

Dipsy: Everything's fine? It won't be fine once we shrek you two braggers.

Laa-Laa: Okay. Look, so called Splodge. If you wanna destroy the magic buffers that lead to the magic railroad, you get the Steamroller.

Tinky Winky: That's right, you losers! You take one step and you're dead!

(Sid throws a stone at Splatter and Dodge but stops just short of them. They look down at the stone Sid just threw)

(Tinky Winky, Dipsy, Laa-Laa and Po's eyes widen)

Po: Wow. That's kind of lame if you ask me.

Tinky Winky: Well. (looking determined) If you want a piece of us..... that's fine.

Emily: (chuffing away) Oh, we've better hurry back and warn Thomas.

Percy: (chuffing away) You're right, it's too scary in this dark forest.

Fergus: (chuffing away) The dark forest is very scary to see. We have to warn him.

(Oliver arrives with trucks and Toad the Breakvan to see Splatter, Dodge, and George at the magic buffers)

Oliver: (gasps) Oh my gosh, Toad! There's Splatter, Dodge, and George at the magic buffers!

Toad: They're Diesel 10's henchmen. Diesel 10 hired George the steamroller to destroy the buffers.

Oliver: Destroy the buffers?

Toad: Yes, Mr Oliver. He wants him to destroy all of them. Except that one right here. The magic buffers that lead to the secret railway for the lost engine.

Oliver: The lost engine? What are you talking about, Toad?

(Toad spots Manny, Sid and Diego trying to stop Splatter and Dodge)

Toad: Look, Mr Oliver. There's Manfred, Sid and Diego. They're trying to stop Splatter and Dodge.

Oliver: Ha. Good on em. And by the way, Toad. Call him Manny, not Manfred.

(owl hooting on the tree causing Oliver and Toad gasp)

Oliver: The dark forest is very scary! Come on, Toad. Let's go back home. (chuffs away)

Toad: Right, Mr Oliver. We can talk to BoCo tomorrow at Brendam Docks.

Oliver's Driver: Good idea. We can do that tomorrow.

Oliver's Fireman: Yes, but we better get out of here before someone sees us.

Oliver: Come on.

(Scene cuts to Mr. Conductor and Lily by a campfire with Thomas' crew. Thomas, Ashima, Brum, Ant, Dec and the MerseyGirls are standing by them. Mr. Conductor is flipping cards to cheer Lily up since she can't get home to Burnett, keeping Lily cheerful)

Adult Lily: Mr. Conductor was doing his best to keep me cheerful. He knew I was worried about being late for my grandpa.

Lily: Mr. Conductor, I was supposed to be back by sunset.

Mr. Conductor: You know, Lily. Perhaps your grandpa can guess where you are.

Lily: He can?

Mr. Conductor: Maybe. Because I think he's been here himself long ago. And if he can help, I wish he could hurry. I haven't told Junior this but I think he'll soon grow as weak as I am.

Thomas' Driver: Hopefully that doesn't happen.

Thomas' Fireman: Yes, Mr. Conductor. We definitely need you and your cousin here to make sure that the lost engine is safe and sound and away from Diesel 10.

(Ant and Dec are seen talking to the viewers)

Dec: (whispering a bit) Yeah.

Ant: (whispering a bit) Definitely. Now, Lily told us that she really wonders as well what would happen with Junior.

Dec: (whispering a bit) Essentially, Mr. Conductor is trying to make Lily happy.

Ant: (whispering a bit) But, she is also a bit worried about getting home to her grandpa, Burnett Stone.

Dec: (whispering a bit) But will she? There's only one way to find out.

(Ant and Dec turn the opposite way)

(Thomas looks at Julia worried about Mr. Conductor had said)

Julia: (whispering a bit) I don't want Diesel 10 to destroy the buffers and the lost engine.

Thomas: (whispering a bit; looking confident) Don't worry, Julia. He won't. Besides, you and the girls are a team.

(Julia smiles)

Lily: Junior said that there used to be an engine that traveled on the Magic Railroad. And if only we could find it, we could travel back to Shining Time.

Mr. Conductor: Oh, that engine disappeared a long time ago. Never to be seen or heard from again.

Lily: I have to tell you something, Mr. C. (Mr. Conductor looks up at her) I heard a train whistle and I think it was coming from the mountain.

Mr. Conductor: (remembering) "Mountain". I've just remembered another part of the clue.

Ant: (Gasps) He's remembered!

Mr. Conductor: Stoke up the magic in the mountain and the Lady will smile.

Dec: (Gasps) Yes. Fantastic. Well remembered.

Mr. Conductor: But we need more information, Lily. And I know that your grandpa could help. If he just believed that he could.

Lily: (confused) Lady?

Julia: (whispering) Is that the name of the lost engine, Thomas.

Thomas: (whispering) Yes, Julia. It is.

(Scene cuts to Burnett, Patch and Lady in the Muffle Mountain workshop)

(Both of them continue to dust Lady off)

Patch: She can whistle. I heard her.

Burnett: (nodding) Yeah. So have I. It's because she's magical.

Patch: (looking at a map that Burnett has up on the wall) This must be the map of her Magic Railroad. But...the railroad's energy is fading away. I sensed it when we were out riding. Lily and I were traveling on the ground above it.

Burnett: The railroad needs Lady but I don't know her special secret. And I need to know it now more than ever.

Patch: Because of Lily?

Burnett: Yes, because of Lily.

(Scene cuts to Sodor where Percy, his crew, Emily and Fergus have met up with Thomas and his crew along with Mr. Conductor and Lily. All of the six human characters are sitting by the fire together as Thomas, Emily, Percy, Fergus, Tinky Winky, Dipsy, Laa-Laa and Po talk)

Percy: So, Thomas, we must get Lily back to her grandpa now in case Diesel 10 gets rid of the railway.

Laa-Laa: We tried everything we can, Thomas. But. They're just too much.

Po: They're too good for us mammals.

Dipsy: And getting Lily home is the only way to save the gold dust.

Thomas: But how can I let Lily go without gold dust?

Mr. Conductor: (lying down) Only in the lost engine. (thinking and rising) Unless...

Thomas: Unless? Um?

Mr. Conductor: (standing up and facing Thomas) Thomas. Will you please take Lily?

Thomas: Through the buffers? But if I go through the railway and my wheels don't work?

Mr. Conductor: But what if they do?

Percy: Yes, and don't worry, Thomas. We'll be here all night to look after Mr. C. Right, Emily, Fergus, and driver?

Emily: Yes, yes, that can be arranged.

Fergus: He can go to the magic buffers that lead to the magic railway.

Percy's Driver and Fireman: Right, Percy.

Thomas: But I can't go without my driver and fireman.

Thomas' Driver: Oh, Lily's just going to Muffle Mountain to make sure everything's okay with her grandpa.

Thomas' Fireman: Yes, then she'll take you back there. You know how to drive a train, right, Lily?

Lily: Yes, I'll drive Thomas to Muffle Mountain and back. He'll be fine, right, Thomas?

Thomas: But what if... if...

Mr. Conductor: Yes.

Thomas: What if it's dark?

Mr. Conductor: It will be for a while.

Thomas: And cold?

Mr. Conductor: Maybe.

Thomas: And how will I get back again?

Mr. Conductor: Because you're a really useful engine and will find a way.

(Ant and Dec grin at Thomas)

Dec: Go on, Thomas.

Ant: You can do it. We can trust ya.

(Lily smiles at Mr. Conductor then at Thomas)

Thomas: Then I'll try.

Ashima: And I will help too, Thomas.

(The scene cuts to Po and Dipsy talking)

Dipsy: Listen. I'll try and distract George. You and Po need to come up with a plan to stop Diesel.

Po: But what about the gold dust?

Dipsy: Manny? If Lily doesn't get home, it'll be too late. You have to trust me.

(Po thinks about what Dipsy said.)

Po: Okay. Let's do it.

(Tinky Winky, Laa-Laa, Dipsy, Po and Noo-Noo part ways)

Julia: Hey. Thomas. I want you to remember this. Never give up. Will you remember that?

(Thomas brightens up)

Thomas: (to himself) Never give up. (looking confident) I'll remember that, Julia.
