Emily's New Coaches

"Those are my coaches. Give them back!"

- Thomas

Emily's New Coaches is the first episode of the seventh season.

Plot
A new engine named Emily has to take some coaches and Annie and Clarabel are the only ones around. Later, Emily is shunting Annie and Clarabel when Oliver tells her they are Thomas' coaches. Emily tries to find Thomas, who in the meantime was sent to collect some new coaches. Emily is still looking for Thomas when she is told that Oliver hasn't cleared the crossing, so she goes to investigate. Oliver has broken down and Thomas is heading towards him and can't stop. Emily pushes Oliver out of the way just in time and, in gratitude, the Fat Controller presents her with the new coaches.

Goofs

 * Thomas was said to be taking Annie and Clarabel back to the yard, but he was pulling red coaches.
 * Emily's safety valve is referred to as a dome.
 * Emily collects Annie and Clarabel by mistake. When Thomas arrived at Knapford, Annie was visible behind him, so how could they have gotten to the yard before Emily? Even if Thomas did get back first, shouldn't Emily have realised they were his coaches, having seen them at the platform?
 * After Emily drops Annie and Clarabel off at the yard, her siderods suddenly change position as she leaves to find Thomas.
 * Thomas had plenty of time to stop for Oliver.
 * When the narrator says "Later, the Fat Controller praised Emily", Oliver looks cross.
 * The very first scene of the episode is mirrored.
 * Percy has James' whistle sound at the beginning.
 * Studio equipment is visable on the right of the screen when Thomas says "Give them back!"
 * Emily has a different whistle sound.
