Trevor and the Party

"You're not a stick-in-the-mud at all!" "No, but you were, just for a little while!"

- Bertie and Trevor

Trevor and the Party is a magazine story, illustrated using photographs from the television series.

Plot
Early one morning, Trevor is in the orchard when he sees Edward and has important news to share. The vicar is having a garden party, but he hasn't had time to advertise it by hanging up the posters. Edward suggests that they post the adverts on his cab. The Fat Controller agrees and soon, everyone is talking about the party.

The part day arrives. It had rained heavily the night before and the ground is very wet still. Suddenly, Trevor hears Bertie who calls the old traction engine a "stick-in-the-mud" on his way to drop off more people for the party. Suddenly, Bertie's wheels sink deep into the orchard mud. Bertie panics, but luckily Trevor is nearby and Bertie is quickly pulled from the mud. Bertie thanks Trevor and says he is not a stick-in-the-mud after all. Trevor jokes that Bertie had been, just for a little while.
