Vinyl Scratch, likewise known as DJ PON-3, is recognised throughout Equestria as one of the greatest musicians of her time; but few ponies know about the troubles she faced in the early part of her life. Born to a rich fabric merchant family, she was forced to suppress her interest in music for many years, until one of the textile mill workers suggested that she keep a diary in which to write about her feelings. Here is a selection of entries from her diary that tell the tale of how she first realised her music career, the challenges she faced along the way, and how fate separated her from the one pony who had come to mean more to her than anything else in the world.

Disclaimer: if there are those of you who think that the writing style in this is rather sloppy and rushed compared to my usual quality, that was pretty much intentional. I see Vinyl as the sort of pony who doesn't care too much about grammar, so any continuity errors and other mistakes are to be taken with a pinch of salt. Also, slight bit of AU due to a My Sweet Passion reference that contradicts the events of Slice of Life.

What do you do when the road you set out upon suddenly becomes too long? Or perhaps too lonesome? Do you give up, do you take another, or do you simply carry on?

Vinyl decides to see where her path leads her, in hope of something better, or maybe just something different.

This story is a sequel to The Secret Diary of Vinyl Scratch

Three ponies - one disc jockey; one classical musician; one junior railway worker.
Three locations - one tranquil Equestrian backwater; one prestigious named express train; one wayside junction high up in the mountains.
Three engagements - one birthday party; one musical drama; one emergency firing turn.
Three adversaries - one escape from a cruel fate; one group of narrow-minded elitists; one mistaken signalpony.
Three tales - one troubled past; one lonely heart...
...one train crash!

This is the story of how the Bridleway Limited, one of Equestria's most famous trains of all time, came to grief between Horse Junction and Winsome Peak, and how a tragic accident changed the lives of two young musicians and a nine-year-old railway enthusiast.

This fanfiction is based on Ealing Studios' Train of Events and the Hawes Junction accident of Christmas Eve 1910, and is also dedicated to the memories of the 227 people who lost their lives in the cataclysmic Quintinshill rail disaster of May 22nd, 1915.

Teen and Death tags for critical injury references.
