00:00Skarloey storms through.
00:07In the summer, the high hills of Sodor are Skarloey's favourite place.
00:15There are flowers, and forests, and fields full of sheep, and farmers who wave as Skarloey chuffs by.
00:27But in the winter, it's very different in the hills.
00:33There is rain and wind, and sometimes there are bad storms.
00:39One rainy day, Skarloey was delivering trucks of slate.
00:44He saw a farmer up ahead by the tracks.
00:47There's an emergency, he shouted. A big storm is coming.
00:53We have to get the sheep down from the hills. We need the engines to help.
00:59Skarloey wanted to help, so he puffed quickly away to the depot.
01:05He had to tell the other engines that there was an emergency.
01:09When Skarloey arrived at the depot, his friends Rheneas and Peter Sam were there.
01:15So was the thin controller. Skarloey told him about the storm.
01:21First, you must collect the trucks and take them to the top of the hill, he said.
01:26Then, pick up the sheep and bring them safely down the hill to the farmers.
01:31Yes, sir, peeped Rheneas and Peter Sam. They couldn't wait to get started.
01:37As Skarloey was being uncoupled from the slate trucks, there was a flash of lightning and a roar of thunder.
01:45Skarloey was scared of the thunder and lightning, but he didn't want to tell his friends.
01:51He didn't want to look silly.
01:53Rheneas and Peter Sam blew their whistles bravely as they puffed off to collect their trucks.
02:00Skarloey tooted his whistle as hard as he could, but it didn't sound very brave at all.
02:07The three little engines arrived at the bottom of the hill with their trucks.
02:14Then there was an even louder roar of thunder.
02:18Skarloey's wheels wobbled. He was very frightened.
02:23Here I go, puffed Rheneas, and bravely he chuffed up the hill.
02:27I'm coming too, tooted Peter Sam, and he puffed off bravely after his friend.
02:35Skarloey watched his friends disappear into the storm.
02:39He didn't feel as brave as the other engines.
02:42I'm too scared to go up the hill with them, Skarloey puffed quietly,
02:47and with a sad puff of steam, Skarloey reversed down a siding and hid.
02:53Skarloey waited. He hoped no one would see he wasn't helping.
03:00At last Rheneas and Peter Sam came down the hill.
03:07Their wagons were full of sheep.
03:11Skarloey watched the farmers unload the sheep.
03:15Then Peter Sam and Rheneas puffed back up the hill into the storm.
03:21They were being very brave.
03:24Skarloey felt bad. He wanted to help, but he was too scared.
03:31Peter Sam and Rheneas worked very hard.
03:35They puffed up and down the hill, bringing sheep safely to the farmers.
03:45Then there was trouble.
03:47Then there was trouble.
03:50Peter Sam and Rheneas had puffed up and down so many times, they both ran out of coal.
03:57There are still more sheep on the hill, wheezed Rheneas sadly.
04:02What are we going to do? chuffed Peter Sam.
04:05Skarloey looked at his two friends. They were very tired and very sad.
04:12Then he looked at the farmers. They were worried about the sheep.
04:17If a big engine like me is frightened of thunder, the little sheep must be very scared.
04:23Skarloey chuffed to himself.
04:26I wanted to help the sheep, I wanted to help the farmers, and I wanted to help my friends.
04:32But I haven't helped any of them. I've let them all down.
04:37He felt terrible.
04:39Skarloey puffed slowly out of his hiding place.
04:44Rheneas and Peter Sam were pleased to see him.
04:47Did you collect lots of sheep? Peter Sam asked.
04:51We didn't see you, puffed Rheneas.
04:54Skarloey sadly told them what had happened.
04:58I was too scared of the thunder and lightning to go up the hill with you, he wheezed.
05:03So I hid and I watched you working.
05:06Because of me there are still sheep on the hill.
05:10So now I'm going up to collect them, he chuffed.
05:14There was another flash of lightning and a roar of thunder.
05:19But Skarloey didn't notice.
05:22He pumped his pistons and puffed off bravely up the hill.
05:27The lightning flashed around Skarloey and the thunder roared.
05:32But Skarloey wasn't scared.
05:35All he thought about was collecting the sheep and bringing them safely down the hill.
05:41Skarloey arrived at the top of the hill.
05:45A farmer was waiting.
05:47He was very pleased to see Skarloey.
05:51The sheep were quickly loaded into the trucks and Skarloey set off down the hill.
05:57It was very hard work.
06:00But Skarloey didn't give up.
06:03He chuffed up and down the hill until he had collected all the sheep.
06:09Skarloey felt very happy.
06:12I'm braver than I thought, he wheezed.
06:15And he puffed proudly down the hill for the last time.
06:21Rheneas was very happy.
06:23He puffed down the hill for the last time.
06:27Rheneas and Peter Sam were waiting for Skarloey at the bottom of the hill.
06:32Well done, they tooted.
06:35They were very happy to see him and proud of their friend.
06:39Three cheers for Skarloey, the farmers cheered.
06:43Skarloey smiled.
06:45I didn't think I could do it, but I could.
06:49The lightning still flashed and the thunder still roared.
06:54But Skarloey was the happiest engine on Sodor.
