- “Hello, little squirrel. Would you like to see my new siren? It's amazing. Why aren't you moving? Uh-oh, I bet you're stuck in that tree, aren't you? Help, help!”
- ―Zephie talking to a squirrel
Zephie's Zoomaround is the fourteenth episode of first season.
Plot
Zephie goes to the Farm with Brewster to see the newly-born lamb, but she ends up getting lost when she takes the wrong turn at a junction. Luckily, Olwin helps Zephie back to Chuggington, but Zephie is upset that she only has a bell to call for help. So, Zephie goes to the Repair Shed to have a siren fitted, however she must only use it for emergencies.
But, Zephie wants to try it out, so she uses the siren when she thinks that there's a lion on the loose, which only turns out to be Irving snoring whilst asleep. Then, she uses it again when she thinks a squirrel is stuck in a tree. Eddie decides to take the siren off Zephie as she clearly isn't ready to use it properly. Zephie decides to go back to the Farm to see the lamb, which she does. However, her scissor lift mechanism jams and she tries to un-jam it, but in the process, she falls over and comes off the rails. Felix calls for help, and as soon as Zephie is back at the Repair Shed, Morgan thinks that Zephie has learned her lesson about using sirens properly. So, Zephie gets her siren re-fitted and promises to use it properly, only for real emergencies.

Trivia
- Going by production order, this is the twenty-first episode of the first season.
- This episode marks the first occurrence of a few things:
- Olwin's first speaking role in an episode.
- The first episode to be written by Rachel Murrell.
- The first episode where Zephie is the main focus.
- Stock footage and mirrored stock footage from Koko and the Tunnel is used.
- Going by the European airing order, this is the eighteenth episode of the first season.
Goofs
- Because of the use of stock footage, Calley's coupling rods do not move as she backs down to the magnet car. Additionally, because the shots of Calley racing down the line are mirrored, Calley's lamps and pipe are on the wrong side of her bufferbeams and running board.
- The fence at the farm changes position and is slightly more aligned in the second shot of Zephie talking to the baby lamb.
- Chatsworth's mouth does not move in the final shot of the episode when he starts talking.
