The Scenic Railway

The Scenic Railway is a magazine story.

Plot
Duck arrives at the harbour to collect the engine for the holiday camp's new Scenic Railway. He introduces himself as Sidney, though Duck is puzzled by his small size. Sidney explains "I'll have lots of passengers because my railways are high up in the sky and the views are brilliant!" Duck and Sidney then have a short argument about whose line is the most picturesque.

At the Main Station, Sidney's truck is added to the back of a mixed goods train. He is pleased his journey will take a while, because he'll get chance to see much more of Sodor. When Duck drops off new sleepers for the Skarloey railway, Sidney is most impressed by the scenery, but still insists it will not be as good as his line. On the way to Brendam, they pass over the viaduct, but Sidney finds the height too much and shuts his eyes tight!

At the end of the day, Sidney admits he was wrong. "I must say the Sodor railway is one big scenic railway, but I'm sure I'll have plenty of passsengers all the same!" Duck grins and promises to bring him all the passengers he can handle.
