'''Air Date:''' September 5th, 2018 (UK)

Rebecca, the big tender engine, surprises Sir Topham Hatt by arriving early on the island. After all the other engines tell her how fast and useful they all are, Rebecca wants to impress them too. But she tries too hard that she turns up too early for the passengers and leaves early too!

!!Tropes:
* ActionGirl: Rebecca, a large yellow streamlined engine who has strength and speed on par with Gordon, if not better than him, joins the main cast in this episode. She moves into Tidmouth Sheds to replace Henry, who left the group in the previous episode.
* AlwaysSomeoneBetter: Thomas, Gordon, James, Percy, Emily, and Nia are this to Rebecca. This is what causes her insecurity.
* AnAesop: It's okay to make mistakes. That's how you learn to do things better.
* BreakTheCutie: Rebecca admires the other engines, but doesn't feel confident in herself due to her braking problems.
* BullyHunter: Towards the end of the episode, Rebecca sticks up for Gordon when he's getting teased by Flying Scotsman.
* CallBack: Nia tells Rebecca about the time Emily [[WesternAnimation/ThomasAndFriendsTheGreatRace competed in the Great Railway Show]].
** In the AndKnowingIsHalfTheBattle segment, Thomas recalls the events of ''WesternAnimation/TheAdventureBegins''.
* CharacterDevelopment: Gordon, who was somewhat still salty over Edward and Henry leaving the sheds, befriends Rebecca at the end of the episode, in spite of her replacing Henry in the sheds.
* CheerfulChild: Rebecca, a young streamlined engine with a very bright personality, and taking Percy’s title as the youngest Steam Team member. Her yellow livery also represents happiness.
* ContinuityNod: Loads.
** Edward is shown with Philip at Wellsworth Sheds, where he moved to in Season 21's "[[Recap/ThomasTheTankEngineS21E13AShedForEdward A Shed for Edward]]".
** Henry, who was transferred to Vicarstown Sheds in the previous episode, "[[Recap/ThomasTheTankEngineS22E2ForeverAndEver Forever and Ever]]", is shown there living with Rosie.
** Speaking of "Forever and Ever", Rebecca is the engine that Nia was talking about towards the end of said episode. Gordon is still somewhat grumpy due to her taking Henry's place, until the end of the episode.
* CrashIntoHello: When she arrives on Sodor, Rebecca crashes into Winston due to her brakes malfunctioning.
* ADayInTheLimelight: Rebecca, being her debut appearance in the series.
* DidntThinkThisThrough: Rebecca arrives on Sodor much earlier than she was supposed to. She even claims she miscalculated how much time she took to stop when she crashed into Winston due to her brakes slipping.
* DislikesTheNewGuy: Just as he was with Nia, Gordon is rude to Rebecca for taking Henry's place. He becomes respectful to her as she defends him from the Flying Scotsman's bullying.
* EverythingsBetterWithRainbows: Thomas, Gordon, Percy, James, Emily, and Nia leave a rainbow streak as they fly through the air in Rebecca's fantasy sequence.
* FireForgedFriends: Gordon acts somewhat hostile towards Rebecca throughout the episode, due to her replacing Henry at Tidmouth Sheds, and due to her being too early. However, after Rebecca defends Gordon from the Flying Scotsman's bullying, the two become friends.
* TheFriendsWhoNeverHang: Henry lives with Rosie at his new home in Vicarstown Sheds, despite the two never interacting previously. In contrast, Edward had some interaction with his new friend Philip before moving in with him.
* GenderEqualEnsemble: The new Steam Team formed as of this episode becomes this, with four male members (Thomas, James, Percy, Gordon) and three female members (Nia, Rebecca, Emily).
* GenkiGirl: Rebecca, who is eager to do a good job. So much so that she arrives too early for her passengers.
* ImagineSpot: Rebecca has one where Thomas, Gordon, Percy, James, Emily, and Nia form a train pyramid and fly through the sky, leaving a rainbow streak.
* LookBehindYou: Thomas tries to tell this to Sir Topham Hatt, but he doesn't listen, which results in Rebecca crashing into Winston.
* NaiveNewcomer: Rebecca, in this episode.
* RedOniBlueOni: Gordon is the red to Rebecca’s blue.
* SixthRanger: Rebecca joins the main cast at Tidmouth Sheds in this episode, replacing Henry, and completing the new Steam Team.
