S8 Ep.10: Emily's New Route

THESE ARE SOLEY MY OPINIONS AND NOT FROM THE THOMAS & FRIENDS FAN BASE 

EMILY'S NEW ROUTE
Written by
Paul Larson 

Directed by
Steve Asquith 

Plot:
During the summer season, the Fat Controller had told Emily to take flour from the mill to the bakery. James was unhappy as he was to take the Black Loch route. Rumours had it that a black monster lives there and there are landslides to worry about. Meanwhile Emily was taking the flour but the trucks were causing trouble and caused an accident. The Fat Controller sent Emily to the Black Loch route. But Emily soon found out who was the monster. 

PRO:
- Moral: Everyone can be scared of something.
- Emily showing her good side
- The engines having routes.

CON:
- If the Black Loch route is dangerous due to boulders, wouldn't the line be closed?

Another good episode. It's great to see Emily showing her good side and an example of how everyone can get scared of something. Plus, on the realistic terms, engines having routes. Just like the LNER having the 'Flying Scotsman' service from London - Edinburgh. But, if the Black Loch route is dangerous, filled with boulders falling, wouldn't the Fat Controller close the line so they can deal with the problem and not let the passengers get hurt? But there's no turning back the clock now :P

But still, I like the episode and it's a good one.
