Thomas & The Old Line

Thomas &amp; The Old Line is an upcoming Thomas &amp; Friends' direct-to-video special. It is narrated by Pierce Brosnan.

Plot
The story begins when Thomas and Rheneas race through mountains, bridges and hills. They are excited to go to each place. The two engines decide which place they go to. When Thomas and Rheneas find an old line called "Great Tidmouth", they restore it in time for Sodor Day.

After Thomas and Rheneas restore the old line for Sodor Day, Rheneas meets an new engine called Hugh, who is bigger than Rheneas and stronger than him. Rheneas wants to be in charge of Great Tidmouth. But he has an bad accident with the Water Bridge, which causes him to land on the river and his buffers to be broken. Sir Handel arrives with the Narrow Gauge crane and Mr. Percival. Mr. Percival sends Rheneas to the repair yard for new buffers, while Hugh takes his place at Great Tidmouth. Sir Handel takes Rheneas to the repair yard, and on his way, he meets BoCo and Bear.

Soon, Rheneas was good as new, and goes back to work at Great Tidmouth. He wants to show Hugh he pulls 15 trucks to the Station, but the trucks have a runaway and run away from Great Tidmouth. They crash into a lorry. The Fat Controller arrives and tells the trucks that they run away from Rheneas and have made a crash into a lorry. Rheneas wants to collect some more trucks, but accidently gets lost. Thomas and Hugh see that Rheneas thought he has lost his friends. So Rheneas arrives to see a disused mine, and tries to shunt a truck into the mine, but it runs away from him. So Rheneas runs after the truck, but it runs away from him into the right, while he runs to the left.

Suddenly, Rheneas sees a blocked tunnel. He tries to stop, but he crashes into the blocked tunnel. Rheneas splashes into a puddle of water, and starts to float in the water. Thomas tells Hugh and Sir Handel he has to find Rheneas. So he starts to look for Rheneas. Meanwhile Rheneas is still floating in the mine, until he sees the opening of the line and is flung across a canyon and lands on a field. Rheneas rolls down a hill and stops at the bottom of it. He is stuck for a long time, until he is found by Thomas. Thomas pulls Rheneas back to the rails. After Rheneas is loaded with water and coal, Thomas and Rheneas together puff back to work at Great Tidmouth.

The Fat Controller arrives with Mr. Percival and tells the engines welcome to Great Tidmouth. Thomas and Rheneas feel happier than ever.
