00:00Duncan does it all.
00:05Duncan is a very lively engine.
00:09He likes to do important jobs, and he always likes to be busy.
00:17One afternoon, Duncan arrived at the wharf.
00:21He had to collect trucks of straw.
00:25More trucks of straw, he wheezed.
00:28Duncan was fed up.
00:30What's the matter? tooted Thomas.
00:33I've been doing the same job all day long, grumbled Duncan.
00:38Collecting silly straw and taking it up to the farms in the hills.
00:42I want to do something more exciting.
00:45Just then, Rusty puffed in with trucks of slate.
00:50He looked tired.
00:53Hello, he wheezed warily.
00:56I have so many jobs to do today, I'm all puffed out.
01:01What sort of jobs? asked Duncan.
01:04Next, I have to pick up some sightseers and show them the ruined castle, chuffed Rusty.
01:10That sounds more exciting than the liver and straw, Duncan tooted.
01:15I'll take your passengers for you.
01:17All right, hooted Rusty.
01:19But only if you have time and can do a good job.
01:22I have plenty of time, snorted Duncan.
01:26This is an exciting job.
01:28Duncan left his trucks of straw and he puffed off to pick up the passengers.
01:37Duncan had collected Rusty's passengers.
01:40Soon he was chuffing cheerfully through the beautiful countryside.
01:45Look at the sights, look at the sights, his wheels clickety clacked along the tracks.
01:51Duncan was enjoying his new job.
01:55The passengers were very happy to see all the wonderful sights.
02:00This is a wonderful job, Duncan wheezed happily.
02:05On the way across the lake, the passengers got out to take some photographs.
02:13Duncan had to wait for them.
02:15He wished he had something to do to pass the time.
02:19Just then, Skarloey puffed up.
02:22He was pulling trucks of straw and he wheezed happily.
02:26He wished he had something to do to pass the time.
02:30Just then, Skarloey puffed up.
02:33He was pulling trucks of logs from the sawmill.
02:37Flatten my funnel, he whooshed.
02:39These trucks are heavy.
02:41I hope I'm not too late for my next job.
02:44Where is your next job? Duncan asked his friend.
02:48I have to collect sheep from the farm, puffed Skarloey, and take them to the market.
02:54That sounds more exciting than waiting here, Duncan tooted.
02:57I'll take the sheep to market for you.
03:00Thank you, steamed Skarloey, but only if you have the time and can do a good job.
03:06I have plenty of time, chuffed Duncan.
03:10This was an exciting job, and he puffed off to collect the sheep.
03:17The sightseers were very surprised to be left behind.
03:21At the farm, Duncan coupled up to the sheep truck.
03:26This is a wonderful job, he whistled excitedly.
03:32Then Duncan puffed off to market.
03:36Duncan clickety-clack through the countryside with his sheep.
03:41This is much more exciting than pulling passengers, he hooted.
03:47Up the track, Sir Handel was at the water tower.
03:52What are you doing today? puffed Duncan.
03:55The thin controller needs me for a very special job, whistled Sir Handel grandly.
04:02What job? puffed Duncan.
04:05I have to collect a merry-go-round from the transfer yards, Sir Handel chuffed.
04:11Duncan's boiler bubbled.
04:13That sounds more exciting than delivering sheep, he wished.
04:18I'll do it for you.
04:20And before Sir Handel could say anything, Duncan raced away to the transfer yards.
04:29Duncan was feeling very pleased with himself.
04:33He had had such an exciting day.
04:37Then he saw the thin controller.
04:40He was talking to Rusty and Skarloey.
04:44He was very cross.
04:46The farmer has just telephoned, said the thin controller sternly.
04:50His straw hasn't been delivered.
04:52There are sightseers in his field and his sheep haven't arrived at market.
04:57Bust my buffers, Duncan gasped.
05:00I promised my friends I'd do a good job, he wished.
05:04But I haven't.
05:06And now his friends were in trouble.
05:09It's all my fault, Sir, puffed Duncan.
05:12I wanted to do an exciting job.
05:14So I asked Rusty and Skarloey if I could do their jobs.
05:18But I didn't finish them properly.
05:21You haven't done your own job either, Duncan, said the thin controller sharply.
05:26Duncan knew he was right.
05:28I'll go back and deliver my trucks of straw straight away, he wished sadly.
05:33And this time I'll finish the job.
05:37At the wharf, Duncan coupled up to his trucks.
05:42Thomas was surprised.
05:44I thought you wanted to do something exciting, he tooted.
05:48I did, wished Duncan.
05:50Now I want to deliver this straw to the farm.
05:53It's a very important job.
05:55And he puffed quickly away.
06:04Duncan met Rusty at the lake.
06:07Do you want to help take my sightseers to the forest? hooted Rusty.
06:11No, thank you, chuffed Duncan.
06:14I'm enjoying doing my own job.
06:22Skarloey was unloading the sheep at market.
06:26Next I have to collect some cows, he whistled.
06:30Do you want to help?
06:31No, thank you, chuffed Duncan.
06:33Delivering my straw is just as exciting.
06:42When Duncan arrived at the farm, the farmer was pleased to see him.
06:48That made Duncan feel very happy.
06:51He had finished his job properly and he had been a really useful engine.
