00:00Rusty repairs the railway that winds through the mountains on the island of Sodor.
00:11The little diesel checks that the tracks, tunnels and bridges are all in good working order.
00:18One day, Rusty was crossing the old wooden bridge.
00:25There was a big bump in the track. Rusty's driver stopped to check the bridge.
00:30There are cracks in the supports, he said.
00:33That could be dangerous, cried Rusty. It might fall down if it's not repaired.
00:38And they hurried off to warn the other engines.
00:42The engines were waiting for their coal when Rusty arrived.
00:46Don't use the old wooden bridge, said Rusty. It's dangerous.
00:51How would you know, wheezed Duncan. You're only a diesel.
00:56And he puffed crossly away. He didn't even wait for his coal.
01:02Rusty hurried down the mountain to tell the Fat Controller the bad news.
01:08Thank you, said the Fat Controller. I'll send engineers to investigate the bridge.
01:13Meanwhile, nobody is to use it.
01:18Rusty's driver put up a sign. Line closed.
01:23The engines had to travel a different way.
01:33Meanwhile, Duncan needed more coal to get home.
01:39But when he arrived at the coal bunker, it was empty.
01:43Bother! I won't get home without more coal. Where's the nearest bunker?
01:48On the other side of the old wooden bridge, but you can't cross.
01:52Rusty says it's not safe.
01:55Rusty always makes things sound worse than they are.
01:59I'm sure one trip across the old wooden bridge won't hurt, added his driver.
02:14When they got to the junction, Duncan's driver removed the sign.
02:22And they set off towards the bridge.
02:28This was a big mistake.
02:32Suddenly, Duncan hissed to a halt.
02:37I'm out of steam!
02:40He had used up all his coal.
02:43What's that? he asked nervously.
02:46His driver looked out. The old wooden bridge was starting to collapse.
02:54Rusty, called Skarloey, Duncan has gone across the bridge.
02:59I'd better check he's all right, the little diesel said.
03:03But the cracks in the supports were getting larger.
03:07A beam snapped!
03:09Timber pieces splashed into the water below.
03:12Help! whistled Duncan.
03:14I'm going to fall!
03:18But Rusty was on the way.
03:21Soon the little diesel reached the old wooden bridge.
03:26Duncan had never looked so scared.
03:31Rusty chuffed bravely onto the bridge.
03:39Careful! gasped Duncan.
03:44Soon they were coupled up.
03:47Hold on! said Rusty.
03:49Oh! shouted Duncan.
03:54The little diesel pulled him off the bridge just in time.
04:06The Fat Controller was cross.
04:09That was very irresponsible.
04:12Yes, sir. Sorry, sir.
04:15And Rusty, you were very brave.
04:19Yes, Rusty. You really are a useful engine.
04:23Thank you, sir.
04:25Rusty felt very reliable too.
