Saved From Scrap.

There is a scrap yard just off the main line. It is full of old broken-down parts and machinery. They're broken into pieces, then loaded into trucks and taken to a smelter's yards on the mainland. Engines from the mainland or Whiff, the scrap yard’s private engine, will normally take these trains. But if unmovable, The Fatt Controller’s engines will.
Early one morning, Edward took a train of empties to the scrap yard when he found the most peculiar thing. A small traction sat basking in the sunlight. “Hello, I’m Edward. You're not broken or rusty, what are you doing here?” “I’m Trevor. They're going to break me up soon.” “That’s a shame.” “Mr. Cox says that I’m old fashioned and out of date. But my old driver, Jem Cole, says I only need some paint, polish, and oil to be as good as new.” Edward snorted, “The big engines say I’m old-fashioned, but I don’t care. The Fatt Controller says that he needs me to keep his railway in order. What sort of work did you do?” “Mr. Cox would send me out to do odd jobs. I’ve been over the island over 500 times. The children would flow me in droves; I hated it.” Their conversation was abruptly ended by the guard's whistle and Edward departed for the mainland.
“Broken up, what a shame,” Edward thought to himself as he puffed along the line. He tried to think of anyone who would have room for a traction engine at home, but strangely no one did. And he couldn’t ask The Fatt Controller as he had no need for Trever. Edward had a local passenger train when he returned to the island.
His answer came when he arrived at Wellsworth. “Why didn’t I think of him before?” he asked himself when he saw who was on the platform. It was the Vicker of the church at Wellsworth. “What’s the matter, Edward?” “There’s a traction engine in the scrap yard, sir. He’s good as new, sir. Please do buy him, sir.” The Vicker chuckled, “we’ll see.” He said as he bored Edward’s train.
Jem Cole came to the scrap yard Saturday afternoon. “Driver, what are you doing here?” “I’m going to fix you up.” Trevor was prepared Sunday afternoon. The Vicker brought his two boys after preachings. He told Trevor to show his paces. So Jem Cole lit his fire and drove him around. He hadn’t felt so happy in mounts. “Oh, daddy, please buy him! Please! So the Vicker walked into the office and came out a moment later, “I got him cheap, Jem! Cheap! Now, take these boys home. They won’t want to ride in a car when there’s a traction engine.”
Trevor the traction engine now lives in the Vicarage Orchard and sees Edward every day. His paint is spotless and his brass shines like gold. Trever likes his work but his happiest day is when the Vicker takes him out with his art club. Long afterward, you will see him shut his eyes, remembering, “Edward is a good friend.” He whispers.
