Crews had finally completed building a new line for freight trains. They called it the Rosslare Subdivision since it ran to Rosslare Depot, which itself was near Rosslare Harbor in Ireland. The people from St. George Island could sometimes have an easy time seeing the people in Rosslare. So, the town decided to name the end of the line Rosslare Depot, and the town itself was called Little Ireland.
Tillie: *Pulls 2 boxcars into St. David's Station*
Worker: Thank you Tillie.
Tillie: You're welcome. Who's going to run on the new line?
Worker: You all will at some point. Tower's even buying a new engine to help out.
Tillie: He buys me back along with Georgia, Natalia, Rachael, Suzie, and still has enough money to buy a new engine? This is getting better by the minute!
Tillie shared the news with her friends in Owensville.
Tillie: The Rosslare Subdivision is finally done.
Pete: Now I can get some more time to pull my important freights.
Farnsworth: Yes, and while you're doing that, there's going to be a special express going from Weston to Little Ireland. Non-stop I might add.
Rachael: Will we all get to run on the new line?
Tillie: Yes, and one of the yard workers told me that Tower is even buying a new engine to work on the new line.
Pete: A new engine, huh?
Farnsworth: Another diesel maybe?
Rachael: Why not another steam engine?
Farnsworth: We'll find out tomorrow I suppose. For now, let's return to work.
Pete was very eager to run on the new line. He enjoyed showing off his strength to bystanders while delivering important goods to numerous places.
Pete: *Sees 5 flatcars with containers* Ah, an intermodal. Tower you shouldn't have.
Tower: *Looks down at Pete* Huh? Did you say something?
Pete: This is my train, is is not?
Tower: *Looks at his schedule* Sorry Pete, you're not pulling anything yet. This is for the new engine.
Sayaka: *Blows her whistle while stopping next to Pete*
Tower: There you are. I'm starting you off with something easy today. Take this to Rosslare Depot in Little Ireland. You will stop at St. David's station along the way to pick up two boxcars.
Sayaka: My pleasure. *Happily puffs to her train*
Pete: What kind of engine is she?
Sayaka was a one of a kind locomotive. She was a cab forward steamer, but her cab came from an ACS-64. Everyone saw her as she went down the tracks with her 5 car train at 70 miles an hour.
Sayaka: I would go faster, but I do have to follow the rules..and the speed limits.
When she stopped at St. David's, she met Jeff.
Jeff: *Arriving with three empty flatcars* Oh, you must be Sayaka.
Sayaka: Yep. *Giggles*
Jeff: I need to give you two boxcars. Wait here, and you'll be on your way soon.
Sayaka: Thanks. *Winks*
Only one minute passed, and Sayaka was ready to go.
Sayaka: *Blows her whistle while pulling the train*
The big steam engine quickly gained speed as she put her six drive wheels to work.
Jeff took 2 tank cars to Basic along the mainline. There he met Pete as he had his usual 3 car train from Owensville.
Jeff: More machinery Pete?
Pete: Yeah, but I wanted that new engine's train. She stole it from me.
Jeff: Come on Pete, you gotta let the new engine learn what to do so she can become successful.
Pete: And steal my work? I don't think so.
Jeff felt worried as the big engine puffed angrily away to get turned around for his return journey to Owensville.
Pete might have 2nd thoughts about Sayaka in episode 3, coming soon.
