"Except my ears!” - ―Salty and Cranky
No Sleep for Cranky is the fourth episode of the sixth series. It is based on the story of the same name from The Railway Series book, Salty the Dockyard Diesel.
Plot
Brendam Docks is one of the busiest places on Sodor. Visitors come and go, and cargo comes to be unloaded. This causes trouble for Cranky the Crane, who is forced to work day and night without any breaks. The only company he has is the seagulls who rest on his crane arm. That is why Cranky is always cranky.
One day, Salty arrives late, and Cranky snaps at him. Bill and Ben pull up, and Cranky demands them to hurry up. The twins tell him he is no fun, to which he retaliates. The twins suspect that he is lonely, and Salty compares this hypothesis to an old, lonely Grand Banks lighthouse keeper, which leads to a story much to Cranky's dismay, but becomes so cranky that his mood gets the better of him that he accidentally drops some pipes onto the tracks instead of the flatbeds. They roll into and collapse the shed, trapping everyone.
The Fat Controller is being measured for a new suit when he receives the news. Knowing that any mishap at the docks can cause trouble, he sets off. He reprimands Cranky for his careless behaviour and tells the engines that they will have to wait for help. Cranky groans as Salty explains that it reminds him of a story. All through the night, Salty tells sea stories, hurting Cranky's ears and delighting the twins.
In the morning, Salty is still telling tales. Cranky is about to lose it when Harvey finally arrives. Cranky is happy and claims he will never misbehave again in exchange for not listening to Salty's stories. Soon, Cranky is a happy crane, saying "please" and "thank you." Edward and BoCo are amazed, and Edward is quick to point out the new development. However, he speaks too soon, as Cranky cannot help dropping more pipes onto the tracks. Edward, BoCo, and Harvey find this funny, but Cranky is still cranky.
