00:00The island of Sodor had many visitors and the Fat Controller had scheduled more trains.
00:06Gordon, the big engine, had to work harder than ever before.
00:10Come on, he called to the coaches. Come on, come on, come on.
00:14The passengers rely on me to be on time.
00:31Whenever Gordon finished one journey,
00:36it was time for another to begin.
00:40Never mind, he puffed. I like a long run to stretch my wheels.
00:50Even so, the Fat Controller decided that Gordon needed a rest.
00:55James shall do your work, he said kindly.
01:00James was delighted.
01:03He liked to show off his smart red paint and was determined to be as fast as Gordon.
01:13Look at me, I'm the smartest, most useful engine on the line.
01:17You know, little Toby, he boasted, I'm an important engine, everyone knows it.
01:22I'm as regular as clockwork, never late, always on time.
01:25Says you, replied Toby.
01:27Just then, the Fat Controller arrived.
01:30Your parts are worn, Toby, so you must go to the works to be mended.
01:34Can I take Henrietta, sir?
01:36No, what would the passengers do without her?
01:40Toby saw Percy by the water tower.
01:43Don't worry, Toby, I'll take care of Henrietta until you get back.
01:52Soon, Toby was out on the main line. He clanked as he trundled along.
01:57He's a little engine with small wheels, his tanks don't hold much water.
02:02He'd come a long way and began to feel thirsty.
02:06In the distance was a signal, good!
02:09He thought, there's a station ahead, I can have a nice drink and a rest until James has passed.
02:14Toby's driver thought so too.
02:18Toby was enjoying his drink when the signalman came up.
02:22He had never seen Toby before.
02:24Toby's driver tried to explain, but the new signalman wouldn't listen.
02:28We must clear the line for James with the express.
02:31You'll have to get more water at the next station.
02:35Toby clanked sadly away.
02:42Hurrying used a lot of water and his tanks were soon empty.
02:47Poor Toby was out of steam and stranded on the main line.
02:51We must warn James, said the fireman.
02:55Then he saw Percy and Henrietta.
03:00Please take me back to the station, it's an emergency.
03:03Henrietta hasted leaving Toby.
03:05Never mind, said Percy.
03:08You're taking the fireman to warn James, that's a big help.
03:12Henrietta felt much better.
03:16James was fuming when he heard the news.
03:19I'm going to be late.
03:21My fault, said the signalman.
03:23I didn't understand about Toby.
03:25Now, James, said his driver, you'll have to push Toby.
03:29What, me? Me push Toby and pull my train too?
03:35Rumbling dreadfully, James set off to find Toby.
03:40He came up behind Toby and gave him a bump.
03:43Get on, you!
03:51James had to work very hard.
04:00When he reached the workstation, he felt exhausted.
04:05When he reached the workstation, he felt exhausted.
04:12Some children were on the platform.
04:14Kerr, said one.
04:16The express is late and it's got two engines.
04:19I think James couldn't pull it on his own, so Toby had to help him.
04:23Never mind, James, whispered Toby.
04:25They're only joking.
04:27Ha, said James.
04:29Toby just smiled.
