Where's Wag? (2005 magazine story)

"It sounds like a dog crying, and it's coming from my mail van!"

- Percy

Where's Wag is a puzzle magazine story. It is a remake of the 2003 story, Where's Wag?, but with Percy as the main character instead of Thomas and all-new illustrations.

Plot
Percy is pulling the mail train and, when he stops at a country station to drop off letters, the stationmaster's dog comes running along the platform to greet Percy. The dog is called Wag and he is always happy to see Percy. When it is time for Percy to depart, Wag watches him leave with big, sad eyes before suddenly running off.

When Percy returns to the Main Station, he leaves his mail van in a siding. Then, Sir Topham Hatt comes running over with some alarming news - Wag has gone missing. He asks if Percy has seen him. Percy hasn't, but says he will try to find the little dog. Percy asks every engine he meets to keep an eye out for the wayward dog.

There is still no sign of Wag when Percy rolls into the shed that night. Later, when the other engines are asleep, Percy hears a faint noise. It sounds like a dog crying and it is coming from Percy's mail van. Luckily, the Fat Controller is working late and hears the noise himself. The Fat Controller opens the mail van and a very happy Wag jumps out and starts licking him all over. Wag must have been shut in by mistake.

The next day, Percy takes Wag back to the countryside stationmaster and the first thing he does is wag his tail happily.
