A Sudrian Snowgrave

Ah yes, the Island of Sodor... such a beautiful place off the coast of Barrow-In Furness... full of countrysides, hills and valleys, as well as several railway lines that it's most known for of course. Specifically the standard gauge line running from coast to coast known as the North Western Railway, or NWR for short. Home to Thomas the Tank Engine & Friends. That was too good of an opportunity to pass up, and yes I am saying this within the story itself.

As we all know, Railway operations must keep to tune and schedule, regardless of goods or passengers. Otherwise, there would be nothing but, you guessed it, confusion and delay. Usually it goes smoothly and trains are kept to time and schedule. However, there are a few things that can throw a wrench into that sort of thing. You might of course think of the troublesome truck, which... that's fair, you're not wrong in thinking that. I was just thinking of Mother Nature, specifically winter when she takes a wild gamble whether it snows or not... AND THEN ANOTHER ONE to see how high it can pile up, AND THEN ANOTHER ONE to see how much it'll stick, AND THEN- okay, you get the idea.

Though in Sodor's case, and I'm talking about Sodor specifically, there would be one winter in particular that would give the North Western Railway a bit more than snow to deal with, as things would get... a little weird, shall we say? And for those wondering who I am and how I know this stuff, that's not important to this story, okay?
