Thomas and the Toy Shop

"That crate slipped off my hook!"

- Cranky

Thomas and the Toy Shop, retitled Thomas and the Toy Workshop in some US releases, is the sixth (eighteenth in Australia) episode of the ninth season.

Plot
Thomas is excited for the grand opening of the new toy shop at Knapford station and he helps deliver the toys to the station. On the day of the grand opening, Sir Topham Hatt tells Henry to pick up a new machine to the toy factory from Brendam Docks and take the last load of toys to the toy shop, and Emily to take the children to the toy shop after school.

Thomas is upset that he wasn't asked to help with the grand opening of the new toy shop at Knapford, but his chance comes when the stationmaster at Dryaw Station informes Thomas that Emily has broken down and that Thomas needs to pick up the children. After Thomas finishes all his jobs, he collects Annie and Clarabel from Knapford and sets off to collect the children. But on the way, he sees that Henry is still there because his track is blocked after a crate has slipped off Cranky's hook. Thomas has an idea to take both the toys and the children to the toy shop, but Henry says they will be too heavy for Thomas to pull, but Thomas is sure he can do it.

Thomas arrives at the toy factory and collects the toys. But upon reaching Gordon's Hill, Thomas can't make it to the top and the whole train pulls Thomas back down to the bottom of the hill. Henry arrives seeing that Thomas is in trouble and offers to help. Henry collectes the toys and takes them to Knapford and Thomas collects the children. They finish their jobs and arrive at Knapford Station as Sir Topham Hatt declares the grand opening of the toy shop.
