Story
The Sodor Construction Company were working very hard; the Crosby Library was three-fourths of the way done, and things were running right on schedule. Although this was all good, there was a problem; a different kind of problem. The Foreman, Mr. Sleth had arrived to see how things were progressing. "Oliver, I told you to work with Monty, not Max!" "But Mi-" "I gave you orders, you must obey them!" And he fumed away to see how work on the station was coming along. "And I thought you two were troublesome," sighed Oliver, beginning to load Monty.

When Miss Jenny arrived she too was upset with Patrick. "You were to wait until tomorrow to work on the walkway from the station to the library!" "But Mr.-" "I can't have machines work if they don't listen." At the Workmen's break Patrick, Oliver and the dump truck twins were talking about the confusion. "We must put a stop to this, but how?" said Oliver. "We have an idea," smirked Max. Later that day Monty was working with Ned. He knew that Miss Jenny would be disappointed with him. "I'll be working with you," said Max firmly. "Mr. Sleth's orders." "Alright then; let's get started." When Miss Jenny arrived she was cross with the twins. "You shall both return to the yards. THe Horrid Lorries will take your place." When Mr. Sleth returned he was in for a surprise. "Where's Max and Monty?" "Miss Jenny sent them away in disgrace," explained Lorry 3. "We've been told to do their work." Mr. Sleth finally understood the problem.

A month later the job was done. The Crosby Library was opened to the public. But Miss Jenny and Mr. Sleth had something else that they had to deal with. They had all of their machines in the yard. "Mr. Sleth and myself are very sorry for causing trouble," apologized Miss Jenny. "From now on, we'll both make sure we knew what's happening so all of you don't have to guess." Max and Monty gave quick grins at each other; their plan had worked. From that day on, Miss Jenny and Mr. Sleth kept their word, and the Sodor Construction Company is more useful than ever before.
