1967, the year before the end of steam. After Thomas, Edward and the other engines of Thesang managed to save a select few engines. More and more steam engines have been trying to escape to Thesang in order to survive the purge that is happening on the mainland.

Whilst all this chaos is happening, Gordon feels the biggest pressure of all, with being demanded and pressured by control personally, he is being ripped apart inside. However, with the right engines around him, some he never expected to have. Gordon is seen as the only engine to save the remaining survivors of steam.

Read this final adventure of this trilogy by seeing Gordon go through shock, torture and pain which will leave him as the shining hero to all engines of the UK.

The Abandoned Island by Tankdestryer1
52 parts Complete
A young girl heads to Britain to learn about steam engines there, but little did she know she would be pointed to an adventure. Inspired by The Island Swansong by TheKnightTrain and Victor Tanzig's Stories of Sodor. This will be nowhere even close to as good as either of them, but they definitely inspired this! And some characters will be in the story while others not. I probably won't be consistent. Sorry.
