Synopsis

Diesel was back, and with him, an irritating self-regard. He boasted relentlessly of his strength, proclaiming himself the strongest engine in the world, much to the annoyance of his fellow machines. To demonstrate his supposed power, he attempted a feat of pulling twenty trucks simultaneously. However, the trucks, wisely equipped with brakes, resisted his efforts. A coupling snapped, and Diesel was propelled headlong down the yard, a spectacle of mechanical hubris and spectacular failure.
