Simple. It's stated that "Really useful engines couldn't be really dirty ones", but engines get dirty most of the time when they're being really useful.

No. The Other Side of the Mountain is pretty much Thomas' Shortcut done wrong, Rocky Rescue is about the Search and Rescue Team bickering and arguing when they should know they need to work together, and The Frozen Turntable had potential that was wasted (I don't know if I said this to anyone or not, but it would have been nice to see James with the express and/or Gordon with the mail train).
