MYS

Thomas has to transport something called "The Lion of Sodor." It's actually a statue, but Thomas thinks it's a real lion, and is too excited to listen to other engines who try to correct this misapprehension. Thomas gets his friends to "help" by giving the "lion" treacle, fish and straw. So, all because Thomas was in too much of a hurry to listen to advice, the statue is in a real mess. In Act Three, Thomas, by asking the right questions now, manages to get the statue cleaned and delivered to the Town Square in time for its unveiling.
