Sodor is a place of happiness and joy. A place where living engines work. However things go horribly wrong as a disease spreads throughout the island turning people into monsters hungry for flesh.
But you already knew that, didn't you?
there are, in...
Well, since we made it to the end of the story, i might as well share some ideas and things that never made it to the light of day.
Bill, Ben and Daisy.
They were planned pretty early on, as they were meant to be found at Elsbridge, and were meant to be introduced before Henry.
They were eventually dropped in favor of Oliver, who was later dropped in favor of Henry. Daisy's design was based on the design she had in Sodor Fallout, while the twins were never finished, in fact, only Ben has a design, if you can even call it that.

Their story was about how Dasiy had seen Thomas derail, and was forced to flee. Hidding at Elsbridge for a while, and later encountering the twins, who had been saved from theor original fate by Mavis, who basically took the bullet for them.
Oliver and Toad
As i said earlier, Oliver (amd by extention, Toad) was considerated to take a leading role early on, but was dropped in favor of Henry, with his story being the exact same as the original, in a similar way Gordon was, however i decided he would be kept captive at Crovan's Gate instead, as i have plans for him for whenever i make the sequel. Unfortunately, i've lost the edit of Oliver and Toad, as well as a few others ill be mentioning next
Duke
Duke was planned to be infected from the very start, even before Percy or Donald. However, we can all agree that he was rather dissapointing how i decided to "finish" him off, the main reason was the fact Duke has little to no images as it is. He was also originally meant to have been taken out in the same way Rusty was, however i decided to keep him as just derailed.
Murdoch and Salty
Both of them were meant to be found by Henry, as at first, he was never supposed to separate from the group at when i planned things out. Henry would go down the Brendam branchline, and meet up with Murdoch and Salty. All accidentally Their story would be that Salty, instead of his original fate in Left For Dead, would stay determined and hopeful of being saved, or surviving. Mainly with aid of some surviving workmen.
