Previous Chapter Next Chapter

One day,Thomas was trying to pull one trucks.But,They had their brakes on.

“Come on,Guys!”Groaned Thomas.”Leave your brakes off!”Just then,Edward and Applejack arrived wit their goods train.

“Hey,Edward.Hey,Applejack.These trucks are very careless.”Moaned Twilight.

“Well,Our trucks are being in order thanks to the new brakevan on Sodor.”Said Edward.

“New brakevan?”Said Thomas confused.Twilight and Thomas looked at the brakevan.He was painted green and was very handsome.

“Who are you?”Twilight asked.

“I am Bradford.”Said the brakevan.”Can I help keep your trucks under control?”

“Oh,Yes.”Said Thomas as he backed up to Bradford.

“Stop giggling,You silly trucks!Im in charge!”Said Bradford sternly.

“Y-Y-Yes,Sir!”Said the trucks scared.

“Wow!You act like a general.”Said Thomas impressed as he left to the quarry.They arrived and filled their trucks to the top.They were just about to leave when.....

“Stoooop!”Called Bradford.Thomas screeched to a halt.

“What’s wrong?”He asked.

“Rule number 4:No trucks shall be loaded more then 2ft.Now,Unload those trucks!”Bradford ordered.So,The workman unloaded the trucks.When Thomas and Twilight arrived at the docks,They were late.Sir Topham Hatt wa waiting.

“Twilight and Thomas,You are late.Leave those trucks,Go fetch Annie and Clarabel,And get back on schedule.”He said.Just then,Jame and Rarity arrived with a train of coal trucks.

“Hello,Twilight.Mind if we borrow you brakevan?”Rarity asked.

“Be our guest.”Panted Twilight as she and Thomas left.James and Rarity just started their trip with Bradford when....

“Hold it!”Said Bradford.James stopped.

“What is it,Darling.”Rarity asked.

“Rule number 8:Always keep your trucks clean.”Said Bradford.”A filthy train is a filthy disorder.Now,To the wash down!Hut!Hut!Hut!Move it!Move it!”So,James went to the was down instead of the depot.

“Trucks don’t get washed.”Said James confused.Thomas and James weren’t the only engines delayed by Bradford.Tht night,Henry and Fluttershy were pulling the flying kipper with Bradford as their brakevan.

“I spot a crack in your lamp.”Said Bradford noticing the tiny crack in Henry’s lamp.”That needs to be replaced.Rule number 5:All broken parts must be replaced if noticed.”

“But,It’s just a tiny crack and the steam work is miles from here.”Said Fluttershy.

“And we have fish to deliver.”Said Henry.

“We must fix engines even when fish are involved.”Said Bradford.So,Henry went to the steam works and didn’t deliver the fish.The next day,The engines and ponies told each other all about Bradford.

“We were so late,Sir Tophom Hatt was furious!”Said Fluttershy angrily.

“He made us late,Too!”Replied Percy.”After noticing one leaf on the line!”

“Us,Too because he spotted a scratch in my paint!”Said Stepney.

“He keeps making us late with his silly rules and regulations!”Scolded Rainbow Dash.”That general needs to pipe down!”

“We keep getting into trouble with Sir Tophom Hatt.”Moaned Spike.

“I think that brakevan thinks this railway is under the same rules of his railway.”Said Twilight.

“But,It isn’t.”Said Applejack.”How can we stop that crazy brakevan?”

“I don’t know.”Said Thomas.”But,We’ll find out.”The next day,Thomas and Twilight arrived to collect empty trucks to take to the quarry.Bradford was the only brakevan left there.So,Thomas and Twilight didn’t took him.When they arrived at the quarry,The trucks were loaded and they set off to the docks without a brakevan.

“This time,Sir Tophom Hatt will be pleased with us.”Said Twilight.On the way,Thomas steamed up Gordon’s hull as hard as he could.Then,There was trouble.When Thomas got to the top,The troublesome trucks surged forward.

“On!On!Faster!Faster!”They yelled.With no brakevan to slow down,Thomas and Twilight couldn’t stop.Then,There was more trouble.Percy and Spike were waiting at a signal at the bottom of the hill.

“Percy!Spike!Look out!”Cried Twilight as she applied the brakes.But,It was too late!Thomas smashe dinto the back of prey train and came off the tracks.Luckily,No one was hurt.Oliver and Starlight arrived with Sir Topham Hatt and the breakdown train.

“Twilight and Thomas,What were you thinking going on without a brakevan?”Sir Tophom Hatt asked Sternly.

“We’re sorry,Sir.This is all Bradford’s fault!”Said Thomas.

“Bradford you say?”Sir Tophom Hatt asked.

“That’s right.He’s the one who made me and Thomas late.Spike and Percy,Fluttershy and Stepney.All of us!”Said Twilight.Back at the sheds where Bradford stayed,Sir Tophom Hatt arrived on Thomas.He was very cross.

“Bradford,You have confusion and delay and you owe the engines and ponies and apology for making them late!”He said crossly.Everyone was very cross.

“I’m so sorry for all I've done.”Said Bradford.”I didn’t know this railway had different rules then my railway.”

“Well,You thought wrong!”Scolded Rainbow Dash.

“You’re silly rules got us all in a pickle!A real spicy one!”Scolded Applejack.

“You will stay in the yards until you are wanted again.I hope you’ve learned your lesson.”Said Sir Tophom Hatt.

“Yes,Sir.Sorry,Sir.”Said Bradford sadly.”And I’m sorry about your accident,Twilight,Thomas.”Twilight and Thomas smiled.

“We accept your apology.”Said Twilight.

“I want to say something.”Said Bradford.Twilight and Thomas listened.”Before you left the yards,I was going to say ‘Goodbye’.”

“Goodbye!?You mean me and Thomas seen you just for two days!?”Gasped Twilight.

“It’s true.Sorry that you didn’t get a big amount of time to see me.”Said Bradford.

“Maybe we can have a little more time.”Said Thomas.That night,Bradford was on the back of Thomas’ goods train for the mainland.

“Now,This is more like it.”Said Twilight as she,Thomas,And Bradford left to the mainland.

“Full steam ahead!”Said Bradford.

“Full steam ahead!”Replied Thomas and Twilight.
