(To clarify: D-11 = user, Diesel 11= engine)
"Well, can we meet him?" Diesel 12 asked.
"I'm afraid its not that simple. You see, when I say I "found" him, I meant that I contacted the family of his old owner and now I am Diesel 13's legal owner. Even if he is a jinx, he's still one of you, and I have the patience to do what I can for him." D-11 said.
"So you're saying we have to find him?" Diesel 10 asked.
"Afraid so." D-11 sighed. "His family said he's in an old shed on the western part of the island, so let's go find him." The numbered Diesels set off.
Meanwhile, in a shed in Knapford, Diesel 13 slept peacefully in his shed. Though he himself was on rails, the rails leading to the shed had been ripped up years ago, and the points leading to the shed replaced by small siding; the buffers about 20 feet from the shed doors.
Diesel 13 awoke for a moment, feeling something on him... it was only a small bird. "Ah well, at least I have their company." He said as he dozed off.
Meanwhile...

the other diesels were hot on the trail! In fact, they were right next to the shed!

"Ok, so he's somewhere in Knapford. Where would an old shed like that be?" Diesel 11 said. Diesel 12 saw a Siding and went to rest for a bit. 20 feet away from the buffers was a shed. But Diesel 12 simply thought "No way an engine can be in there... there's no rails."

Then Diesel 11 shouted, "There's a shed! Check in there, D12."
So Diesel 12 did.

Diesel 12 looked inside the shed Diesel 11 told him to check, but all he saw was a table with a disc on it that read "TATMRR Director's Cut" "meh, that is useless" diesel 12 said, unaware of how everybody currently reading this was facepalming, Diesel 12 looked back at the shed with no rails, and then saw some leftover ballast going towards the shed, curious, he asked D11 about it.

Diesel 11 didn't give him the answer he was expecting. "Get back in that shed and get the TATMRR Director's Cut!!" "You don't have to get so fired up about it!"
He went back into the shed and grabbed the TATMRR DC. As he did he saw him...
Diesel 13.

Just a quick pause, I put it as the shed that the TATMRR DC was in and the shed with no rails were different sheds, and Diesel 12 told D11 about the shed with no rails, not the one with the DC in it

He's saying that there are two shed's one with Diesel 13, the other with the Director's Cut.
D-11 (user) came out of the shed "No Director's cut in here; just a sleeping diesel engine." As he walked over to the shed with the Director's cut

D11 then suddenly looked back at the shed, "wait a minute" he said to himself. He then tapped the diesel on the buffers...

The diesel woke up. "Wha-?" Diesel 11 (user) asked, "Are you by any chance Diesel 13?" "Why, yes!" replied the diesel.

D-11 spoke to the engine "Well, you certainly took a while to find. Anyway, I am D-11, your new owner."
Diesel 13 was surprised. "It is nice to meet you sir; so since the rails have been long ripped up and given my... history of problems, am I staying here?" Diesel 13 asked.

"Of course not! I'm going to fix you up and reunite you with your brothers!" "B-brothers, sir?" "Yes." "This is the best day of my life!" "I'm glad. Oh, and one more thing." "Yes?" "Please don't call me 'sir'. It doesn't feel proper. Your brothers just call me Diesel 11, or D11 for short, so you can too."

"Alright... D-11."
"Excellent; now, I just need to make arrangements with Sir Topham to get some rails over here." He said as he pulled out his phone.
Diesel 13 then asked "By they way, given that I am a jinx, what are you going to do with me? I can't exactly do much since I always break down." He pointed out.
D-11 thought it over, then told him...

"I don't think you are a jinx" D11 said, D11 went back to the other diesels, and they went back to Knapford sheds, when D11 thought of something, "how about we find diesel 8?" He thought...

"No, not yet. We need to fix D13 up first. THEN we'll find D8."

"Ok." The other diesels said in agreement.
D-11 went to check up on D-13 again. "Why do you think I am not a jinx?" Diesel 13 asked.

"Because there are no such things as jinxes. You may break down suddenly, and even kill someone (accidently), but that's just because of how you were built. Once we fix you up, the 'curse' will be lifted."

"How I was built? Are you saying that someone cut corners when I was constructed?" Diesel 13 asked, realization dawning.

"I'm not really sure. However, we'll figure it out."
