What is 'Arry and Bert about?
'Arry and Bert are twin diesel engines who enjoy playing tricks on the steam engines at Sodor Ironworks. One Halloween, Thomas and Emily are sent to collect iron from the smelter’s yard, giving the mischievous diesels a perfect chance to cause a fright. But when a strange shape appears, the pranksters soon find themselves frightened too. As spooky surprises fill the dark yard, 'Arry and Bert discover that frightening others can be much less fun when the tables are turned.
