Plot
It's Christmas time in Sodor and every engine is excitedly preparing for the holiday, especially Bruno who is excited to put his star on the tree. It's his tradition! When the Christmas tree can't be delivered, Thomas and Percy learn why traditions are important to Bruno.

This was a nice episode and I do like how Bruno, being autistic, reacted to the changes of his usual tradition for Christmas time we see him being a bit stressed out and a bit cross that Gordon couldn't find a Christmas tree. A natural trait to see from someone like him when it comes to change but at least he was not shown a stereotypical way to depict that all of them hate change, some can adapt to it even if it's not what they are use to usually, I tend to do some research on autism to understand more. I love Bruno since he helps me understand the condition. 

The rest of the episode was nice too, especially for a Christmas episode.
