Hannah: *In Impala Station, looking down at the tracks nervously*
Mily: *Stops next to her* Hey Hannah. Everything alright?
Hannah: Jade, and Alinah are missing.
Mily: What?
Hannah: I haven't seen them anywhere on this line in two weeks. I think Ms. Scarlett might have gotten rid of them.
Mily: It's not like Ms. Scarlett. She wouldn't just get rid of them like that. I'm sure there's a reasonable explanation about all this.
Hannah: I hope you're right. Otherwise, Ms. Scarlett might sell more of us, and jeopardize this railroad.

Episode 96: Downhill
Audience: *Laughing*
Narrator: Perfect timing, huh?
Audience: *Laughing*
Narrator: Next morning, Ms. Scarlett told everyone the bad news.
Ms. Scarlett: By now, you probably noticed that Jade, and Alinah are both gone.
Marisa: Strange, I thought Holly said they were getting overhauls.
Holly: What? Where did you hear that from?
Marisa: Juliette.
Juliette: I heard her say something about overhauls, and I thought she was talkin' about Jade, and Alinah.
Holly: But that doesn't mean I was.
Ms. Scarlett: Everyone, please let me finish. Our railroad has been losing money, due to a decrease in passengers, and some track maintenance, as well as a few unfortunate accidents just outside of Ballantine. I had to make a very tough decision, and sold Jade, and Alinah to the Arizona and California Railroad.
Holly: I hope they're enjoying their new life there.
Ms. Scarlett: As a matter of fact, they sent me a postcard. It says, Dear Ms. Scarlett, I think I speak for Alinah, and myself as I say.... well that's insulting, I told them why I had to do it.
Audience: *Laughing*
Juliette: They're not enjoying the Arizona and California, are they?
Ms. Scarlett: There's a P.S. Despite everything I said to you earlier, everything on the A&C is great. I take back all the bad things I said to you.
Audience: *Laughing*
Ms. Scarlett: Well, I'm glad we got that out of the way, because we're not out of the woods with this money problem. I have spoken to Mr. Baldwin, and Mr. Wright. The two of them agree to help me run fundraisers at Impala Station, and Mossberg Station. If we can get $100,000 from both fundraisers, we'll be in the clear.
Song: link
Narrator: The Hunterdon Central, Eastern Pacific, and Eastwood & Mossberg worked together to raise enough money for both fundraisers.
Dan & Grayback: *Departing the airport station on a doubleheader passenger train*
Alyssa: *Stops at Mossberg Station*
Passengers: *Putting money in a big jar*
Narrator: The passengers even helped too.
Ian: *Attached to a cable, connected to a railroad track next to him on the left side*
Narrator: I'm sorry to say not everyone was willing to participate.
Sean: *Going up a hill with a passenger train*
Ian: *Pulling the rails apart*
Sean: What?! *Goes over the damaged track, and goes airborne* WHY?!?!!???! *Lands on his side, and rolls down the hill. He makes a bored face during the process* Was this accident really necessary?
Audience: *Laughing*
Sean: Couldn't you use this scene for another episode?!
Audience: *Laughing*
Stop the song
Narrator: Two weeks passed, and the fundraiser at Mossberg Station closed after receiving $110,000. The fundraiser at Impala Station got the extra money, and was up to $90,000. Hannah was at Eastwood, getting a passenger train ready, when Ms. Scarlett came to see her.
Ms. Scarlett: I got you set up for a special Hannah. You will stop at Eastwood station, pick up passengers for the fundraiser at Impala, and bring them there non stop, unless of course you need coal, and water. Other than that, you don't have to stop for anyone, or anything else. You will need eight coaches for your train
Hannah: Yes ma'am.
Ms. Scarlett: Good. I'm off. *Drives away in her car*
Narrator: After that, an awful thought struck Hannah. What if eight coaches wasn't enough for her train? What if more engines had to be sold from the Eastwood & Mossberg? She decided to add seven more coaches to her consist.
Hannah: *Coupled up to fifteen coaches* There. That should be enough. I won't have to worry about anymore engines being sent away. *Pulls her coaches to Eastwood station*
Passengers: *Watching Hannah pull into the station*
Hannah: *Stops, and blows her whistle*
Passengers: *Getting into the train*
Hannah: *Watching her passengers get on board* (Perfect. With all of the passengers on board, we'll be sure to get enough money to close the fundraiser)
Narrator: But Hannah didn't realize that fifteen coaches were too heavy for her.
Narrator: All aboard!
Hannah: *Blows her whistle twice, rings her bell, and slips her wheels* Ah! *Stops, and tries again, only getting the same result of wheel slip* Oh! *Blushing from her struggle, still slipping* Shouldn't we be moving by now?
Narrator: Ask anymore questions like that, and I might have to resort to wise cracks.
Audience: *Laughing*
Narrator: Hannah stopped after 10 seconds of wheel slip. She poured sand on the rails to give herself more grip.
Hannah: *Slips, but gets her train moving* Oh finally. I thought it would take longer to get out of here.
Narrator: Increasing her speed, Hannah finally left Eastwood. Upon her departure, Hannah thought about the hill up ahead.
Hannah: What if I struggle with my train there too?
Narrator: She would get her answer soon.
Jessica: *Waiting at Hunterdon station*
Hannah: *Passes Jessica with her train*
Jessica: *Sees Hannah, and her train*
Narrator: Hannah quickly made her way to the hill, but as soon as she started going up, her wheels slipped.
Hannah: *Stops her wheels from slipping, but they start again* I'll make it up here if it's the last thing I do.
Song: link
Hannah: *Slipping her drivers again* Ah!
Narrator: Luckily, Jessica decided to follow her from Hunterdon Station.
Hannah: *Slowly moving backwards, but her drivers are still turning forward*
Jessica: *Couples up to the back of Hannah's train* Hannah, this is Jessica!
Hannah: What are you doing?
Jessica: I'm going to help you over the hill. Try to open your throttle slowly. If your wheels keep slipping, pour sand on the tracks.
Hannah: I got it Jessica. *Moves slowly forward*
Jessica: Good. We got it.
Stop the song
Narrator: Hannah made it over the hill, and Jessica uncoupled herself, watching her friend continue onto Impala Station. Upon arrival, Hannah saw Ms. Scarlett's megaphone sticking out of one of the windows at the station.
Ms. Scarlett: What did I tell you back at Eastwood?
Hannah: To pull 8 coaches.
Ms. Scarlett: And here I find you pulling 15. This is not like you Hannah. Not like you at all.
Hannah: I was worried Ms. Scarlett. I thought there wouldn't be enough passengers here for the fundraiser if I only brought 8.
Ms. Scarlett: Nevertheless-
Sean: *Blows his horn twice as he pulls into the station* Hello Ms. Scarlett. What's going on with you, and Hannah?
Hannah: *Blushing*
Ms. Scarlett: I'm going to punish her for pulling too many coaches.
Sean: *Looking at Hannah's 15 coaches* Too many? Looks like she made it okay, unless I missed out on something.
Ms. Scarlett: She needed Jessica's help to get over the hill.
Sean: *Looking at Hannah as she blushes* Well I think she's learned her lesson.
Hannah: I just didn't want anymore engines to be sent away.
Ms. Scarlett: I understand Hannah. Selling Jade, and Alinah was a difficult decision, but I think the fundraisers we had will keep us in business for the time being.
Sean: Also, I think my controller has something to say to you Ms. Scarlett.
Mr. Baldwin: *Sticks his megaphone out of a window on one of Sean's passenger cars* Hello Ms. Scarlett.
Ms. Scarlett: What can I do for you Mr. Baldwin?
Mr. Baldwin: I sold some coaches to a Japanese railroad, and I'd like to buy some of yours.
Ms. Scarlett: Sure. You can take seven from Hannah's train.
Sean: Leave them here, and I'll pick them up later.
Mr. Baldwin: Deal?
Ms. Scarlett: Deal.
Narrator: And so it was arranged. Nowadays, Hannah knows not to worry about the other engines on the Eastwood & Mossberg being sold. She knows that Ms. Scarlett will host fundraisers, or sell some passenger cars to Mr. Baldwin.
