- Toad not used as his brake van during the mail run.
- Their is no explanation of the two old homes, the station and the shed that the Fat Controller and Oliver found.
This is just a bad episode, since when did Oliver become a shunter? He should be running 'The Little Western' with Duck. Plus, there was no explanation about the branch line? Did something happen their, those two homes? What are they, the Fat Controller's childhood home? The writing is OK, but how the way they treated Oliver is not OK.
