Plot
Thomas and Diesel take a friendly competition too far and put an important delivery rescue at risk as they race across Sodor.
I feel like some elements of this episode had been taken from the debut episode 'A Thomas Promise' but at least there had been some changes to make it different. Then again, there are so many episodes of the show that I can't remember how many times Thomas and Diesel had compete each other because most episodes have them racing around. The episode however was alright though I do find the troublesome trucks to be annoying with their constant chatting and bad puns and despite the episode stating the moral of the story instead of letting kids digest it for themselves, it really does bring it out. Though most of the episode was kinda meh to me.
