00:00Rusty, Rheneas and Skarloey chugged cheerfully through the Sodor countryside.
00:16The engines were going to help Duncan with an important job at the Incline Railway.
00:26The engines enjoy working at the Incline Railway.
00:39They like the clever way the loaded trucks roll down the incline, pulling the empty trucks
00:46up.
00:47But they are always careful.
00:51Duncan doesn't like working at the Incline Railway.
00:54He is always impatient to get back to the junction.
00:57This makes him careless and gets him into lots of trouble.
01:06Rusty hoped Duncan would stay out of trouble today, but he was already in too much of a
01:12hurry.
01:13I'm a plain-speaking engine, gruff Duncan, so collect your trucks and be quicker, booty.
01:19And off he steamed.
01:21Bossy boots, chuff Rheneas, pushy puffer, huff Skarloey.
01:26They didn't like Duncan telling them what to do.
01:29He just wants to get back to the bustle of the junction, Rusty said.
01:40Duncan wanted everyone to work faster.
01:46You're supposed to be helping me, he grumbled, but you're as slow as snails.
01:51We are proper engines, Rusty huffed crossly.
01:54We follow the rules.
01:55We can't send up more than four trucks at a time, chuffed Rheneas.
01:59Then work faster, said Duncan impatiently.
02:03Later that day, Duncan was working the incline.
02:07I'll show you how fast a really useful engine can work, Duncan called, as he hastily biffed
02:13one truck into another, and then another.
02:17Soon, Duncan had his four trucks.
02:20Nothing to it, he boasted to Rusty.
02:23Those trucks will pay you back, warned Rusty.
02:26Trucks don't like to be biffed.
02:27I can handle trucks, he cried.
02:33The three little engines could see Duncan was not going to listen.
02:37They curvy trundled away from the incline with their trucks full of slate.
02:45Duncan was so impatient, he became even more careless.
02:49I'll show that smelly diesel and those lazy steamers, he said to his driver.
02:54Careful, cautioned his driver.
02:56You're asking for trouble, and he got it.
03:00Duncan didn't notice his chain was tangled in the coupling of the truck in front of him.
03:04Suddenly, he was being pulled off the track by the empty trucks.
03:08Boots and buffers, he cried, it's got me.
03:13Duncan's driver jumped clear.
03:16Rusty returned to see Duncan being pulled up the incline.
03:21I tried to warn him, said Rusty.
03:24He never listens, the little diesel's driver said.
03:31The chain pulling Duncan's trucks couldn't hold the weight.
03:34It suddenly snapped.
03:37Help, he yelled.
03:42Clunk, clunk, clunk, he said, clunk all my boiler.
03:55Duncan felt foolish and very wet.
04:00When the fat controller arrived, he spoke severely to Duncan.
04:04You have not been a responsible engine, he said.
04:08Your impatience has caused confusion and delay, and you owe these engines an apology.
04:14Sorry, Duncan said to Rusty, Rheneas and Skarloey.
04:18Once you have been repaired, the fat controller said, you will work the incline until you
04:23learn to be patient and careful.
04:26Yes, sir, said Duncan.
