Thomas is given a job to take The Fat Controller's new car to the Sodor Show while Gordon is to take the bandstand to a show and challenges Thomas to a race. Gordon gets in the lead while Thomas impatiently tries to catch up. Little did Thomas know is that he wasn't coupled to the truck where the new car is placed on top, and this is where disaster strikes...

!!Tropes featured in the episode:
* TheRival: Gordon who had challenged Thomas to a race.
** FriendlyRival: He helps Thomas retrieve the car without hesitation. In return, Thomas gives Gordon the honor of delivering to the Fat Controller.
* RunawayTrain: Specifically, it's a runaway flatbed with a car on top.
* ATragedyOfImpulsiveness: Thomas was so eager to catch up with Gordon that he forgets to be coupled to the flatbed where The Fat Controller's car is placed, which caused the runaway.
