8 | |
9 | * BigBad: Diesel 10 is the leader of the Diesels and the one who kicks off the conflict of the story, beginning by deceiving Percy. |
10 | * CharacterisationMarchesOn: It's rather odd these days seeing Paxton and Sidney as willing troublemaking accomplices to Diesel 10, given later episodes establish them as ditzy but well-behaved counterparts for their nastier brethren. |
11 | * ContinuityNod: The Steamies and the diesels work together again to get a big project done, just like in ''WesternAnimation/CallingAllEngines''. |
12 | * CoversAlwaysLie: Thomas is shown front and center on the boxart, despite the fact that Percy is the star of this film. |
13 | * CreativeClosingCredits: As with the past two specials, the credits scroll over a montage of scenes from the movie as the titular song plays. |
14 | * ADayInTheLimelight: In addition to Thomas, Percy has a big role here, and has more screentime and focus than the former. |
15 | %% * DistressedDude: Thomas when Diesel 10 holds him hostage. |
16 | * EarnYourHappyEnding: For everyone, the diesels and the steam engines finally get along for once to restore Vicarstown Dieselworks, allowing the Diesels to have a place to stay once again. |
17 | * LateArrivalSpoiler: For those who were shocked upon seeing the sudden after-credits scene of ''Misty Island Rescue'', that's where this movie starts. It even serves as a sequel to said film. |
18 | * MoodWhiplash: At first the movie starts off bright and pleasant, then comes a fire, and things get intense from there. |
19 | * TearsOfRemorse: Percy gets these after seeing Flynn in his berth at Tidmouth Sheds. |
20 | * WhamEpisode: The Sodor Dieselworks are restored, and Flynn and Belle join the Search & Rescue team. |
