Lost and Found

Lost and Found is a magazine story.

Plot
One day, The Fat Controller calls the stationmaster into his office. He shows him a shiny new brooch that he plans to give to Lady Hatt. Suddenly, there is a loud noise outside and the two men go to investigate.

The Fat Controller and the stationmaster discover that a pair of magpies have been making the noise. When The Fat Controller returns to the office, he is shocked to find that the brooch is missing! The stationmaster informs The Fat Controller that his spare whistle had gone missing recently as well. The Fat Controller files a police report and informs his engines to be on the lookout for thieves.

Edward and Thomas are shunting when they hear the magpies return. The two engines spot them on a bush and they puff closer. When the birds fly away, Thomas spies something shiny in the bush and contacts The Fat Controller. The Fat Controller investigates and there, to his relief, are the brooch and whistle. The Fat Controller explains that magpies like collecting shiny things and is happy the mystery has been solved.
