Henry's Lucky Day

“Oh, no! I've broken my lucky trucks! I'm not going anywhere without my lucky trucks!”

― Henry^[src]

Henry's Lucky Day is the eighth (fourteenth in Australia) episode of the eleventh season.

Plot

Henry is the only engine who makes all his deliveries on time; Thomas attributes Henry's good fortune to his lucky trucks. Henry is chosen to deliver some presents, so he wants to take his lucky trucks again the next morning, but discovers Edward has taken them. Henry becomes convinced that he needs the lucky trucks when he encounters icy rails, an avalanche, and split pipes in succession. Henry finally finds the lucky trucks in the forest, but he is going too fast, so he cannot stop in time and crashes into the trucks. Henry realises that there's no way to make his delivery on time but to go on his way without them. Fortunately, Henry picks up the presents which have been loaded into some different trucks, at the airport and manages to deliver on time.
