The Tugboat

The Tug Boat resides at Brendam Docks and is often used to carry a shipment of coal for the steam engines.

One stormy night, the rope attached the tug boat and the pier snapped and it broke away from its mooring. As the tug boat began to drift out to sea, the skipper shouts out that he could not be able to drive it back to the harbour edge due to a broken engine. Luckily, Diesel's driver and the harbour stationmaster forum a plan, and tied a rope up to Diesel's front coupling and the boat. Diesel raved his engine and pulled the tug boat safely back to the harbour edge, where it was secured while waiting for its engine to be repaired.

Appearances
The Tug Boat appeared in the magazine stories, Diesel Pulls Hard and The Wedding Engine.
