The Blue EM2


Glad to be here at last.

Sequels1

E

This story is a sequel to Flatline


Every year, the Rich family organises an open day in which to demonstrate the rail network running around the site. This year, the entire fleet will be running.

Question is, can two old friends keep the timetable running?

I wouldn't normally read EQG stories, but then I saw the thumbnail and thought "is that... it is!" One of the least likely crossovers ever.

It's the Romney, Hythe, and Dymchurch Railway, a miniature line in England.

I know, hence the "it is!" It's not too far away from where I live so I've been there a lot.

Okay, there is something here that I feel the need to point out, this chapter contains two logical contradictions:
Number 1:

About the engines kept on the Rich Estate you say that

The 5 kept here were the oldest of the fleet.

yet about one of them you say

A fairly new addition to the fleet, this was its first running day.

it seems to me that several of those kept on the Steel Estate would likely be older.

Number 2:
You say that

Although the line had 10 locos, they kept 5 at each end of the line.

You then list the five engines kept on the Rich Estate.
Later you state that

Elsewhere, Dark Steel and his daughter were lighting the fires on their 5 engines.

And then proceed to name six engines.

a Duchess class painted red, called Refined Steel

That's one

a pair of P2 2-8-2s, configured for freight work

those would be two and three

a single 4-8-2, based on a French design

there is number four

and two Beyer-Garratt's, which could be used on either passenger or freight trains.

and here we have numbers five and six ... out of five ... that doesn't math.

Oops. I'll go and correct this.

There was a shout in the distance. “DIAMOND TIARA RICH! STOP MASSACRING MOZART THIS INSTANT!”

That made me laugh :rainbowlaugh:

Glad to hear it. I thought a more sedate pace for my next story would be nice, as it has been a bit mad otherwise.

But glad you enjoyed it nontheless. Ever experienced miniature railways?

Silver’s heart melted when he appeared. This was Thorax, whom she had a crush on.

Now that's a rare shipping: EqG Silver Spoon and EqG Thorax =3

I got it from a story called The Teenage Life of Spike. It has some cute shipping, but is otherwise garbage.

Just then, another whistle rang clear through the terrain. And there arrived Princess, pulling the last train of the day, with Diamond Tiara at the controls.

That can't be good...... :twilightoops:

With a cloud clunk,

Uh.... shouldn't it be loud and not cloud? ^^; :twilightsheepish:

I wish Autocorrect was never a thing in the first place though :/

9509545
Those who use autocorrect should burn in help.

9509558
Good. So, my usual query; what did you like about the story?

THIS IS AWESOME

When it acts like that, it’s autocorrupt…
