Winter Adventures With Thomas[]
It is winter on the Island of Sodor and Thomas, the shunting locomotive and his two passenger coaches Annie and Clarabel are having a lot of fun with their new snowplough. But they need to learn, that fun can quickly become serious danger, especially if you get stuck in the snow! Terence, the caterpillar and Bertie, the friendly bus, help in the danger!
Henry and the Flying Kipper[]
What is the matter with Henry? He whines and is complaining about "lack of drive power!" The Fat Controller threatens to shut him down, but then, the problem gets solved: Henry is getting the wrong kind of coal...
