Automation not Starting using multiple aliases

Configuration
1

when starting up hass the below setup works but once I add a second automation script it fails to start with the following error

16-12-12 22:29:35 ERROR (MainThread) [homeassistant.bootstrap] component automation failed to initialize
16-12-12 22:29:35 INFO (MainThread) [homeassistant.core] Bus:Handling <Event call_service[L]: service=create, service_call_id=139750808268528-1, domain=persistent_notification, service_data=message=The following components and platforms could not be set up:
* [automation](https://home-assistant.io/components/automation/)
Please check your config, title=Invalid config, notification_id=invalid_config>

the working config looks like this
File stucture

config
automation
 | scripts.yaml

configuration.yaml

#Automation
automation: !include_dir_merge_named automation

scripts.yaml

alias: 'Switch to bedside light'
condition:
  condition: state
  entity_id: zone.home
  state: 'zoning'
trigger:
  platform: state
  entity_id: light.bedside_light
  state: 'on'
action:
  service: homeassistant.turn_off
  entity_id: light.overhead_light

This all works but once I add the below it fails to load the automation component

scripts.yaml

- alias: 'Switch to bedside light'
  condition:
    condition: state
    entity_id: zone.home
    state: 'zoning'
  trigger:
    platform: state
    entity_id: light.bedside_light
    state: 'on'
  action:
    service: homeassistant.turn_off
    entity_id: light.overhead_light

- alias: 'Switch to overhead light'
  condition:
    condition: state
    entity_id: zone.home
    state: 'zoning'
  trigger:
    platform: state
    entity_id: light.overhead_light
    state: 'on'
  action:
    service: homeassistant.turn_off
    entity_id: light.bedside_light

I’ve looked through other examples, tested the config against the —check_config script and verified the yaml is correct and yet it isn’t working, Does anybody have any idea whats wrong?

I thought the format was …

- alias: 'do something'
  trigger:
    blah blah
  condition:
    blah blah
  action:
    blah blah
