Released for PC in September of 2003, the game has the player guide Thomas to help deliver a lost shipment after a storm damages parts of the island. The game is split into 6 chapters, each one having a different minigame that is required to progress.
Plot
During a rainstorm that has caused damage all over the Island of Sodor, a shipment of supplies for Mr. Jolly's Chocolate Factory became lost. Before Thomas can help, he needs to find extra coal, bring Harvey his hook so he can rescue Edward, help Percy find his goods in a cave, retrieve missing cargo with Harold, and help the troublesome trucks sing a song.
When Thomas successfully delivers the cargo at Brendam Docks, the player is rewarded with being able to create their own box of chocolates to send to Sir Topham Hatt.
