Accidents and Incidents
The railway has had a number of accidents across the years, many of them involving the same locomotive and driver.

Early in Sodor's existence, while it was still under construction, Reggie accidentally drove Gordon off the edge of Bluff's Cove. While it was not a large drop and the damage minor, it took a long time to repair the locomotive owing to a lack of spare parts.

In The Trouble With Trains, Reggie once again derails Gordon after excessive speed caused the failure of a fishplate. This time, he was able to stop the locomotive before it careered over the edge of Bluff's Cove, however it came to a stop with its front wheels hanging precariously over the edge - had the engine and its train fallen, it would have been disastrous. A rescue operation was soon mounted to recover the rolling stock, with Gordon sent away for repairs afterwards.

In The Trouble With Trains 2, not long before Gordon returned, the Metroliner was involved in a collision with a car that had stalled on the line. While the damage to both was soon repaired, a mix up with their engines meant that the train could not pull its own weight and was taken out of service.

In The Trouble With Trains 3, a signalling issue caused one coach of Gordon's express train to derail over a set of points, blocking the main line and nearly causing a high-speed collision with the Metroliner.
