00:00Rheneas is a brave little engine who enjoys working in the mountains on the island of Sodor.
00:11Even though he is little, Rheneas loves feeling like a really useful engine.
00:18One day, the Fat Controller came to see Rheneas.
00:22I have a very important job for you, he boomed.
00:26An important job, cried Rheneas. Oh, thank you, sir.
00:30You are to take some children up into the mountains.
00:34You must make sure they have a wonderful time and are back in time for their tea.
00:39Yes, sir, said Rheneas, but he was worried.
00:44He wasn't sure he was good enough to make the trip special.
00:47When Rheneas arrived at the station, the children and their teacher were waiting on the platform.
00:57How can I make the children's day really special, he said to Rusty.
01:02You know the mountains better than any engine, said Rusty, but Rheneas wasn't sure his best would be exciting enough.
01:09He felt like a very little engine indeed.
01:17The Fat Controller had told Rheneas' driver to point out all the beautiful sights along the way.
01:27This is Sodor Castle, called his driver. It's very special and important.
01:32Rheneas saw the castle every day. He didn't think it was special or important.
01:37I must think of something exciting to do, he puffed to himself.
01:42This is Valley View, said his driver.
01:48And here's the viaduct.
01:53Rheneas was still unhappy. The trip didn't seem wonderful to him at all.
01:58Must be special, must be special, he puffed.
02:04Meanwhile, Rusty was working on the rocky ridgeline.
02:10Heavy rains had washed the ground beneath him.
02:15Heavy rains had washed the ground from under the tracks.
02:18These lines are too bumpy and uneven, said the foreman.
02:22The tracks must be closed for repairs.
02:33Rheneas was still trying to think of something that would make the children's trip special.
02:40He didn't know that the linesman had forgotten to switch the points.
02:46Suddenly, Rheneas was on the wrong track.
02:49Oh no, this line is closed for repairs.
02:54Bust my buffers, chuffed Rheneas.
03:00Be careful, cried Rusty, the tracks are very bumpy.
03:04Rheneas whooshed down the mountain like a roller coaster.
03:08The children cheered.
03:17Rheneas puffed up the rocky ridge with all his might.
03:21His carriage clattered and bumped and bounced along behind.
03:25And the children oohed and aahed.
03:28Rheneas chuffed and puffed as hard as he could.
03:32He steamed across the trestle bridge.
03:35He was going so fast the teacher nearly lost her hat.
03:38Rheneas splashed under a waterfall.
03:41The children laughed happily.
03:44And the teacher covered her eyes.
03:52At last they could see the station.
03:56Rheneas was very tired and worried.
04:00What would the Fat Controller say?
04:02Phew, said the teacher, just in time for tea.
04:07It was the best school trip ever, cried the children.
04:11The Fat Controller wasn't cross with Rheneas, he was happy too.
04:15You gave the children a wonderful trip.
04:17You really are a very useful engine.
04:20Oh, thank you, sir, puffed Rheneas proudly.
04:24Rheneas didn't feel like a little engine anymore.
