Nemo was doing a poor job taking over for Hawkeye while he was on vacation. He became frightened of bulls, and remained very lazy, and stubborn. The only trains he would drive, were passenger trains, pulled by diesels.

All the freight trains were being left behind for Stylo to deal with, and it was annoying him big time.

Stylo: *Walking into train yard*
Metal Gloss: *Stops train in yards*
Stylo: *Sees Metal Gloss*
Metal Gloss: *Climbs down from cab* Hello Stylo. I see Nemo has left another freight train behind.
Stylo: I'll have to make a special journey with it I suppose. Anypony would think I have nothing to do.
Metal Gloss: Tell you what, I'll take that freight train, you get the empty tank cars that I take to the dairy.
Stylo: Alright.

So Stylo got two diesels, and coupled them to the empty tank cars. However, he was going up Sherman Hill. The mafia were there waiting.

Mafia Pony 377: Here comes a freight train.
Mafia Pony 459: I know that train. It's driven by some unicorn mare, and she takes it to the dairy for those tank cars to be loaded with milk.
Mafia Pony 377: How do you know?
Mafia Pony 459: It always shows up at this time of the week. Wait a sec. Give me those binoculars.
Mafia Pony 377: *Gives binoculars*
Mafia Pony 459: *Looking at train* That's a stallion driving the train. Give me a sniper rifle.
Mafia Pony 377: *Gives sniper rifle to his partner*
Mafia Pony 459: I think we might get some gasoline from this train. *Aiming rifle at airbrakes, and shoots them*

Airbrakes are very important. Without them, it makes things more difficult for the train to stop.

Mafia Pony 459: Haha.
Mafia Pony 377: Are you crazy? If there really is gasoline on that train, it could crash, and blow up. How will we get the gas now?
Mafia Pony 459: Relax. Not all of the cars are gonna explode. If none of them explode, we know that all of them are empty.
Stylo: *Tries to apply brakes* Wait a minute, I got no airbrakes. *Gets on Walkie Talkie* Train 949 to MP 312, I have no airbrakes, and my train won't stop.
Signal Pony: Copy that 949. We'll divert you to a siding.
Stylo: Thank you.

Unfortunately, another train was in front of him.

Stylo: Oh god. *Crashes train into the back of another freight train*

Stylo's engine went through the caboose, and got onto a flatcar. A few minutes later, Pete arrived. Metal Gloss, and Nemo helped clear the mess, but there was worse to come.

Pete: You broke your leg. Now, we must try to run this line with two workers missing! You have messed things up for me, and the Union Pacific.
Stylo: I am sorry.
Pete: You will be in the hospital for at least two weeks. You really need to be more careful.
Nemo: Ha. How could somepony be stupid enough to not have airbrakes?
Pete: As for you Nemo, all of my workers are loyal, and hard workers. Lazy ponies get fired. However, Metal Gloss said you worked hard with clearing this mess up, so you shall have another chance.
Nemo: Thank you. I'll work hard. Metal Gloss says she'll help me.
Pete: Excellent. What Metal Gloss doesn't know about driving a train, isn't worth knowing. She's very experienced in this.

So Stylo was sent to the hospital to heal, and Nemo took over for him. Hawkeye returned from vacation shortly after Stylo's accident.

Metal Gloss: *Putting grease on valve gear of steam engine*
Hawkeye: *Arrives*
Metal Gloss: Pierce! *Runs to Hawkeye, and hugs him*
Hawkeye: Hey, it's great to be back.
Nemo: So you're Hawkeye. Metal Gloss has told me about you, and I must say, you really have an important special somepony. You take good care of her, right?
Hawkeye: Of course I do. It's great to meet you.
Nemo: Yeah, I'm working with her. You are taking a short freight train over Sherman Hill.
Hawkeye: Right. Have fun you two.
