Roof Repairs!

"Ah, ooh, grooh! Help! I'm drowning!" "What a fuss Diesel's making over a few drops of water!"

- Diesel and James

Roof Repairs! is a magazine story.

Plot
One night, a storm strikes the island. High winds rip a huge hole in the shed roof which rain pours through, soaking the engines! The following morning, the Fat Controller orders repairs to the shed roof to begin immediately. Then, Diesel oils up and teases the engines, stating that a drop of water never hurts an engine. Diesel collects timber from the saw mill and returns to the sheds. Work continued all day, but the roof was not completed by the evening so the engineers fix up a tarpaulin to keep the engines dry.

That night, rain pelted down once again. The following morning, Diesel arrives again. He oils up alongside the shed as the workmen tip the water out of the tarpaulin. The water soaks Diesel, who thinks he's drowning! James laughs and remarks about the fuss Diesel's making!
