Author's notes: It's good to see Trevor get a good role again. Another thing I liked, was that I got to work with Edward and Fluttershy again, even if it was for one story. In case you guys haven't figured out, we have a bit of a set timetable for me and the other main drivers:

Mr Holden - Applejack
Mr Hoskins - Fluttershy
Mr Thomson - Rainbow Dash
Mr Hawkins - Twilight Sparkle
Mr Roberts - Pinkie Pie
Miss Ravens - Rarity.

We do shift back and forth between supporting characters like Coco Pommel, Big Mac, ect. Anyway, with that bit of info out the way, here we go.

Trevor Helps Out

Narrator: Trevor the traction engine is a little William fosters traction engine that runs on steam but runs on roads. Many years ago in 1953, he was doomed to be broken up at the breakers yard at Wellsworth, but thanks to kindness of Edward, Fluttershy, Mr. Holden, Miss Ravens and reverend Charles Laxey the first Vicar of Wellsworth Christianity, Trevor works mostly in the vicarage orchard where he lives, but he often works elsewhere on both the Island of Sodor and the land of Equestria with permission granted by the vicars son, Charles Laxey, the second vicar of Wellsworth. After making friends with the Apple family and being so kind and helpful to them in their guidance, Granny Smith often helps out at the vicarage orchards to thank the reverend for offering Trevor's assistance. But one morning, Trevor the traction engine woke up feeling very depressed. He couldn't breath properly.

Granny Smith: Howdy there Trevor. (Sees his furlong expression) Why the mopey face there?

Trevor: Oh hello Miss Granny Smith my dear. (Cough) I'm I don't know. I just can't seem to breath properly.

Narrator: Granny Smith was horrified.

Granny smith: Great zap apples! Reverend! Reverend! Trevor can't breath!

Narrator: The Vicar ran out concerned and looked all over trevor.

Vicar of Wellsworth: Oh dear, it looks like your boiler needs mending. But I'm sorry to say that I cannot afford it at present. Don't worry I'll try to see if I can arrange a charity to help pay for an overhaul.

Trevor: Thank you your reverence. (Sad sigh) I hope it works.

Granny Smith: There there old Trevor. I'm sure you'll be right as rain soon.

Narrator: One morning, Granny Smith came early to make sure Trevor was alright and to keep him company just the vicarage telephone rang and the vicar answered it.

Vicar of Wellsworth: Hullo. Reverend Charles Laxey the second speaking.… Oh you do?….. Don't worry… I'll call Jem Cole Jr. up and get Trevor ready straight away.

Narrator : The Vicar came out to see Trevor and Granny smith .

Granny Smith: Howdy Rev. What's going on?

Vicar of Wellsworth: Farmer Curtis has a tree down and he wants you to help saw it up for him Trevor. I know you're a bit under the weather but you can manage this of course.

Trevor: Yes Sir your Reverence. I won't let you down.

Narrator: So when Jem Cole arrived and Trevor had steam up, Jem and Granny Smith climbed aboard and they set off to Farmer Curtis's farm near the railway trying to clear the fallen tree. When Trevor arrived at the site, Jem got Trevor into position, Granny Smith attached a special cable to Trevor's flywheel and as soon as Trevor's brake was on, he set to work his flywheel pulled the cable which powered a big saw. The big chucks of the fallen tree were sawed down to size. At 11:00 Thomas came by with Edwards coaches for the Wellsworth dragon. He whistled cheerfully and Twilight Sparkle and Mr. Hawkins waved a friendly greeting to them. Edward liked trucks and was delighted to let Thomas pull his coaches for a while. Mr. Hoskins was also kind. He knew that Miss Ravens sometimes missed working with Fluttershy and allowed her to do a duty swap with Edward and Charlie. Edward and Fluttershy were very pleased to work with Miss Ravens again.

Edward: (Sighs happily) It's so nice to be working with you again, even if it is only temporary.

Fluttershy: I agree. It's just like the good old days.

Miss Ravens: (Chuckles) I know what you mean.

Narrator: Later that day when Edward steamed passed he was pulling 3 tanker wagons and 5 trucks with a sort of tent on them which were specially used for transporting china clay. The ponies and men called them hoods. At first Thomas was confused and asked Bill, Ben, Charlie, Scootaloo, Apple Bloom and Rumble about them.

Thomas: Why do they call those trucks hoods?

Charlie: I'm not sure. I don't usually come up here unless it gets really busy.

Rumble: Same here.

Bill: Well, they're used sorta like tents.

Apple Bloom: Ya see, the freshly cut clay has to be covered up to keep it from getting mushy in wet weather.

Ben: The wet clay goes into tanker wagons.

Scootaloo: Yeah. That's when the clay is ready to be transported over seas on tanker ships.

Narrator: But to Trevor and Granny Smith, they we just trucks. Trevor was enjoying himself and Granny Smith's company. The only thing he loved more than sawing wood was giving children and foals rides. He chuntered happily as the pile of logs grew.

Trevor: (Sigh) If only I take children and foals for rides. Ah well. I shouldn't complaIn.

Granny Smith: I know Trevor. I know my little granddaughters Apple Bloom and Babs Seed love it when you give them and their friends rides but we've gotta get you fixed first.

Narrator: Later that day, Edward was returning with some empty trucks. As he passed the place where Trevor was working, he whistled a friendly greeting and Miss Ravens and Fluttershy waved a friendly greeting. Trevor whistled back and Granny Smith also waved back.

Edward/Miss Ravens/Fluttershy: Hullo Trevor. Hullo Miss Granny Smith!

Trevor/Granny Smith: Hullo Edward, Fluttershy, Miss Ravens.

Narrator: But then, Edward felt the rails wobble beneath him.

Edward: WHOA! Did you girls feel that?!

Miss Ravens: Yeah. I did!

Edward: That feels like a loose rail.

Fluttershy: Oh my…. We better then tell the maintenance.

Narrator: At the Harbour, Edward exchanged the empty trucks for full china clay trucks. Back at Farmer Curtis' farm, Trevor dozed happily in the warm Sudrian Autumn sunshine and it wasn't long before he heard Edward approaching. Trevor whistled a cheerful greeting whilst Granny Smith waved her greeting. They were watching Edward, so they did not see one of the trucks six from the end sink jump and shudder Just at the place where Edward had felt a weakness in the line that morning, sparks flew a truck wheel jammed and with a crack a coupling broke. The last six trucks and the guards van lurched, bumped and stopped. The guard, safe in his van got out and blew his whistle but Edward far in front didn't hear it and kept on going without realising what had happened. Trevor and Granny Smith were closer to the guards van and heard the whistle and looked back to see the last 6 trucks lying in strange angles.

Granny Smith: QUICK TREVOR! WE GOTTA STOP EDWARD!

Trevor: Right. We'll whistle a warning.

Narrator: Granny Smith wasted no time. She reached for the whistle cord and whistled the alarm.

Trevor: STOP EDWARD! STOP!

Narrator: Edward heard Trevor's whistle and was worried.

Edward: OH MY GOODNESS! IT'S TREVOR! I wonder what's wrong?

Miss Ravens: Well, we'd better stop and see. I hope he's alright.

Narrator: And she applied the brakes. Edward gently stopped. Fluttershy flew up to the tender and was surprised.

Fluttershy: Oh my. It's not Trevor, it's us! The last six of our trucks have derailed.

Narrator: The guard went back placing detonator caps to protect his train whilst Miss Ravens went to the farm house to call for help. Soon, the brake down gang cleared the line and repaired the rails. Edward took his train on. That afternoon, the Fat Controller and Princess Celestia came to see Trevor.

Fat Controller: Thank you very much Trevor. Princess Celestia and I have heard about your boiler trouble and you are to go to Crovans Gate Works to be repaired.

Celestia: We cannot thank you enough for saving a nasty situation. Would you like that?

Trevor: Oh sir and Malady. Thank you Sir and Malady. That would be lovely.

Narrator: Granny Smith smiled at Trevor.

Granny Smith: Heheheheh. I told you would get your repairs done sooner than you think.

Trevor: You were certainly right Miss Granny smith.

Narrator: And they all smiled had a good chuckle about it.

Right. Part 4 will be up soon.
