00:00It was cold and snowy on the island of Sodor.
00:05The village children had built a snow engine.
00:08They were excited.
00:10The winter holidays were here.
00:13People were coming from far and wide to visit the island.
00:23But this year, there was even more snow.
00:26It had covered the island and blocked the roads.
00:29Bertie the bus couldn't take any passengers.
00:34So the Fat Controller came to Tidmouth Sheds.
00:38Percy, you are to pull the passengers today, the Fat Controller said.
00:43Percy was worried.
00:45He usually took the mail or shunted trucks.
00:48He hadn't pulled passengers for a long time.
00:51Gordon will show you what to do, said the Fat Controller.
00:55And he left.
00:57I'm an express engine, huffed Gordon.
01:00I shouldn't be slowed down by a small engine like Percy.
01:10Gordon went with Percy to the depot.
01:13But when Percy backed up to collect his carriages, he bumped them very hard.
01:19No, no, no, you need to puff smoothly, Gordon huffed impatiently.
01:25Watch me, you'll soon learn how to pull passengers.
01:29Gordon backed smoothly up to his carriages and buffered up to them very gently.
01:35Very smooth, the Yard Manager said.
01:39Best buffering I've ever seen.
01:41Gordon was so proud he thought his boiler would burst.
01:46Maybe teaching Percy will be fun, Gordon said to himself.
01:50Then he'll see I'm the biggest and the best.
01:56Gordon pulled in to Knapford Station.
01:59He rolled smoothly to a stop.
02:02Perfect, Gordon chucked.
02:05Then Percy pulled into the station.
02:08Look at all those passengers, he gasped.
02:12He blew his whistle and wheeshed lots of steam.
02:19You're doing it all wrong, huffed Gordon.
02:22Don't wheesh until your passengers are on board.
02:25Watch me.
02:27Gordon waited.
02:29When all the passengers were on board, he wheeshed some steam.
02:34Gordon was very proud.
02:36He liked showing Percy that he was the best.
02:39Gordon was having lots of fun, but Percy wasn't.
02:44Percy was fed up.
02:47Gordon and Percy puffed across the Yard.
02:56Gordon puffed through the snowy valley.
03:01Percy puffed under the icy bridge.
03:07Later, Gordon and Percy were at another station.
03:10Their passengers were all on board.
03:13Their passengers were all on board.
03:16Percy wheeshed some steam.
03:19You're learning a little bit, groaned Gordon.
03:22But you're still not doing it right.
03:24Watch me.
03:26Gordon wheeshed some steam and pulled out of the station.
03:32Big blue show-off, puffed Percy.
03:36Gordon wasn't listening.
03:38He was already puffing through the countryside.
03:42I'm so clever, Gordon chuffed.
03:45There must be someone else I can show.
03:48And there was.
03:49Watch me.
03:51Gordon chuffed as he raced past James.
03:53I puffed nice and smoothly.
03:57Then he raced past Toby.
03:59Watch me. I'm fastest and best.
04:06Gordon puffed into the station.
04:09He was very excited.
04:11There were lots of people he could show off to.
04:14Watch how smoothly I can go, puffed Gordon.
04:17Gordon was so busy showing off, he didn't see how icy the track was.
04:23Gordon slid right through the station and into a siding.
04:31Everyone watched as he puffed into a big pile of snow.
04:39Yuck, coughed Gordon.
04:42Luckily, no-one was hurt.
04:47The Fat Controller was very cross.
04:50I asked you to teach Percy, he said sternly.
04:53Not show off all afternoon.
04:56Yes, sir. Sorry, sir, Gordon puffed quietly.
05:02Just then, Percy puffed past.
05:06He pulled smoothly into the station.
05:10All of Percy's passengers arrived safely at the platform.
05:15Gordon's passengers had to walk through the snow.
05:19Gordon was very embarrassed.
05:22His face was as red as Bertie the bus.
05:26But Edward soon pulled him out of the snowdrift.
05:36Later that evening, it was time to go home.
05:40The passengers were all aboard Gordon and Percy.
05:44Gordon wanted to show Percy how smoothly he could puff.
05:48But then, he remembered sliding into the snowdrift.
05:55Gordon didn't want to look silly again.
05:59Percy, you go first.
06:02Percy, you go first, Gordon puffed.
06:06Show me how smoothly you can go.
06:09So Percy pulled smoothly out of the station.
06:14And Gordon followed.
06:24Gordon and Percy puffed through the snowy countryside.
06:29And Gordon didn't show off once.
06:37At last, Gordon and Percy arrived at Tidmouth Sheds.
06:42Did you see how smoothly I puffed? asked Percy.
06:46Yes, said Gordon. You have learned very well.
06:50Percy was proud.
06:53But then again, Gordon added, I am a very good teacher.
06:58What?
