Thomas' Animal Ark

Thomas' Animal Ark is the eighteenth episode of the twenty-second season.

Plot
When the boiler at the Animal Park on Sodor breaks down on a cold, snowy day, Thomas decides to take the animals to the Steamworks where they will be warm. However, snowdrifts on the line make the journey impossible, so he takes them instead to Tidmouth Sheds - where the engines are forced to spend the night with elephants, giraffes and an ostrich!
