The Sodor Cold Wars

Log 1

Alright, here's our plan for Brendam. We're going to

have Gordon up in the front as he is our main source of strength. In front of him will be a truck and a flatbed both filled with boxes, metal or anything that's heavy. Following Gordon will be Molly with another truck and flatbed in between them. Finally we'll have some coaches, vans and Toad which will be full of survivors. Edward and Toby will stay behind for now. We're planning on executing this plan in a few hours.

Well change of plans we aren't heading for Brendam yet. Just as we were about to go we heard the sound of an engine from back down the line and we were shocked to see Neville rolling into the station.

God you wouldn't believe how fast Molly's face lit up at the sight. He had this massive scar going across his face and right eye, but other than that he was alright. However he was alone, he was pulling a mutated Murdoch. Murdoch was surprisingly in good shape; he was just really sad like Edward. The two were glad to have found us as after they saw Thomas at Elsbridge they assumed they were the only ones left.

Well I'm glad we didn't go to Brendam as based on what Neville has told us it's an absolute nightmare. Apparently Neville was leaving Brendam with a goods train when the bomb went off. He eventually found himself in the goods shed at Lower Suddery. Just as he was backing into the goods shed he saw Duck rush by with a goods train heading straight for Brendam, then  a few hours later Bear rolled through heading for Brendam as well, and finally he saw Stepney with a passenger train rush by. Throughout the few days he saw Stepney or Duck going in and out of Brendam. Duck seemingly had a different funnel, one that was much smaller. They would leave with empty trucks but come back with full ones. He was eventually going to call out to them, but when he saw them hauling D261 away he knew something was up so he decided to follow them. He followed far behind and soon he saw D261, BoCo and Salty sitting in the far back goods shed. He was about to go talk to them when a voice echoed out beside him. It was Derek. Derek told him he had to run and that it wasn't safe. Just as he said that D261 began screaming as men climbed all over him tearing and cutting parts off of him. Stepney just sat and watched with a massive grin across his face.

Just then Duck rolled beside them, Derek begged for Duck not to alert Stepney which thankfully he didn't. However it wouldn't matter as Stepney would see Neville and raise the alarm. Derek told Neville to run and Neville wasted no time and raced away with all he could hear was Derek begging for mercy. As he ran a bullet was shot right through his eye giving him the scar. After he left Brendam Neville continued down the mainline in the dead of night. As he did Arthur shot past him trying to scream. He soon found himself at Tidmouth where he found Murdoch who had crashed through a pair of buffers. In the yard were also the remains of Henrietta who had been obliterated by the blast. Toby didn't take this news very well. We're comforting the old tram now, but this news is only giving him more determination to survive.

Log 4

We were all horrified by this. Stepney and Duck, two of the kindest engines on the railway, kidnapping and gutting engines. We finally had answers to what had happened to Emily, Duncan and Rusty, but I can say this for all of us, we wished he didn't. To think that the engines we work with were gutting their own family for parts. We had to get in there and save Salty and BoCo. We can't just leave them there to die.

Alright we've been decking out all the engines with shields for our battle tomorrow. So here's the plan we got going. We'll have Gordon up front with a flatbed with a custom made snow plow at the front as he's our main source of power. With him we can push through anyone in our path. Up front with Gordon will be Neville and finally we'll have Molly in the far back. Her role is to use Gordon and Neville's ambush as a distraction, saving Salty and BoCo. We'll have several vans and Toad full of soldiers and other survivors who decided to come with us. Annie and Clarabel offered to come with us, but Toby forbidden it. Edward and Murdoch will stay behind as we can't risk them getting hurt in their current state and Toby still doesn't have a crew so he'll stay behind as well. We plan on executing our plan tomorrow. Hopefully this goes right.
