Track Attack (comic story)

Summary
Its June 1885, and someone on the Northampton to Euston rail line the Doctor and Amy Pond have made their way to the front of a steam train, speeding out of control, at impossible speeds. The driver is unable to stop or even slow down the train so the Doctor climbs out and releases all the steam by undoing a valve using his sonic screwdriver. Once the train had slowed down to a stop, the Doctor discovers that the train had been taken over by a Shift Agent (a creature without a solid body that takes controls of machines). The Shift Agent needs to recover ‘Dark Matter' that has been leaking and could very soon rip the planet apart. Tracking the Dark matter to Euston Station, the steam train was the fastest means of travel the Shift Agent could find. Releasing the carriages the Doctor helps the Shift agent by heating up the water molecules with his sonic and with the Shift Agents help the engine soon reaches Euston Station where after jumping the queue the Doctor locates the Dark Matter amongst the luggage. It is handed over to the Shift Agent who takes it away safely avoiding a “worst case scenario”.
