Naptime Interruptions

"You're so dreamy..."

-Ashima to Thomas in her sleep

Naptime Interruptions is the third episode of the seventh season.

Plot
All the engines are busily working hard on Sodor, but Ashima has been working all morning and hasn't taken a single nap! A siding gives her an idea: she will take a little nap for ten minutes and hopefully she will be ready to work. The idea was planned: Ashima's eyelids slowly move down, she lets off a bit of relaxing steam, and eventually falls asleep.

Just then, Gordon whooshes past Ashima and says at her, "A siding is no place to take a nap, don't you agree?" She suddenly wakes up to a jump and looks around. She thought she could hear an engine talking to her, but it turned out that there wasn't an engine coming in any direction. Ashima then decides to fall asleep again, and says while closing her eyes, "I hope nothing or no one can disturb my beauty sleep this time. I'm sure everything will be OK."

Just then, she spoke too soon. Edward chuffs by and says, "What if engines need to use that siding? I'd advise you to find somewhere else to sleep." to her. Ashima woke up the second time, heard what Edward said to her, and chuffed over to find somewhere else to sleep. She sees the Skarloey Railway and finds a place to sleep for the rest of the afternoon. Duke arrives and says that she can spend the rest of her day sleeping away. He tells Ashima that he went to sleep in the old shed at the Mid-Sodor Railway and he was lost forever until some people rediscovered him.
