[edit] Season 1

[edit] Thomas and Gordon/Thomas Gets Tricked

Narrator: Thomas is a tank engine who lives at the big station on the Island of Sodor. He's a cheeky little engine with six small wheels, a short stumpy funnel, a short stumpy boiler, and a short stumpy dome. He's a fussy little engine too, always pulling coaches about ready for the big engines to take on long journeys. And when trains come in, he pulls the empty coaches away so that the big engines can go and rest. Thomas thinks no engine works as hard as he does. He loves playing tricks on them, including Gordon the biggest and proudest engine of all. Thomas likes to tease Gordon with his whistle.
Thomas: Wake up, lazybones! Why don't you work hard like me?!
Narrator: One day, after pulling the big express, Gordon had arrived at the sidings very tired. He was just going to sleep when Thomas came up in his cheeky way.
Thomas: Wake up, lazybones! Do some hard work for a change! You can't catch me!
Narrator: And off he ran, laughing. Instead of going to sleep again, Gordon thought how he could get back at Thomas.
Gordon: Hurry up, you!
Thomas: Hurry up, yourself!
Narrator: Gordon the proud engine began making his plan to teach Thomas a lesson for teasing him. Almost before the coaches had stopped moving, Gordon reversed quickly and was coupled to the train.
Thomas: Peep! Peep! Stop! Stop!
Gordon: Hurry! Hurry! Hurry!
Coaches: You can't get away! You can't get away!

[edit] Edward and Gordon/Edward Helps Out

Trucks: OOH! Whatever is happening?!
Driver: You're not trying.
Gordon: I can't do it! The noisy trucks hold an engine back so!
Narrator: Edward's driver came up.
Edward's Driver: We've come to push.
Gordon: No use at all!
Edward's Driver: You wait and see.

[edit] The Sad Story of Henry/Come Out, Henry!

Henry: The rain will spoil my lovely green paint and red stripes.
Narrator: Everyone pulled except the Fat Controller, because...
The Fat Controller: Ahem! My doctor has forbidden me to pull.
Narrator: But still, Henry stayed in the tunnel. Then they tried pushing from the other end. The Fat Controller said...
The Fat Controller: 1, 2, 3, PUSH!!
Narrator: But he didn't help.
The Fat Controller: My doctor has forbidden me to push.

[edit] Edward, Gordon, and Henry/Henry to the Rescue

Gordon: What has happened to me?! I feel so weak!
Driver: You burst your safety valve. You can't pull the train anymore!
Gordon: Oh, dear! We were going so nicely, too! And look! There's Henry laughing at me!
Narrator: Everyone came to see Gordon.
The Fat Controller: Hmph! These big engines are always causing me trouble! Send for another engine at once!

[edit] Thomas' Train/A Big Day for Thomas

Thomas: I spend my time pulling coaches about, ready for you to take out on journeys!
Narrator: The other engines laughed.
Thomas: Why can't I pull passenger trains, too?!
Henry, Edward and Gordon: You're too impatient. You'd be sure to leave something behind.
Thomas: Rubbish! I'll show you!

[edit] Thomas and the Trucks/Trouble For Thomas

Thomas: I'm tired of pushing coaches. I want to see the world!

[edit] Thomas and the Breakdown Train/Thomas Saves the Day

The Fat Controller: Hello! Remember, don't be impatient, Thomas. You can never be as strong and fast as Gordon, but you can be a really useful engine. Don't let the silly trucks tease you.

[edit] James and the Coaches/James Learns a Lesson

The Fat Controller: If you can't behave, I shall take away your red coat, and have you painted blue.
Narrator: James didn't like that at all.

[edit] Troublesome Trucks/Foolish Freight Cars

The Fat Controller: I see you are sorry. I hope now you will be a better engine. You have given me a lot of trouble. People are laughing at my railway, and I don't like that at all.
James: I'm very sorry, Sir. I will try hard to behave.
The Fat Controller: That's a good engine! I want you to pull some trucks for me.
The Fat Controller: I was in Edward's train, and I saw everything. You've made the most troublesome trucks on the line behave. After that performance, you deserve to keep your red coat!

[edit] James and the Express/A Proud Day for James

Gordon: You talk too much, little James. A fine strong engine like me has something to talk about. I'm the only engine who can pull the express. When I'm not there, they need 2 engines. Think of that, I've pulled expresses for years, and have never once lost my way. I seem to know the right line by instinct.

[edit] Thomas and the Guard/Thomas and the Conductor

(Henry arrives at the station late)
Thomas: Where have you been, lazybones?!
Henry: Oh, dear. My system is out of order. No one understands my case. You don't know what I suffer!
Thomas: Rubbish! You're too slow! You need exercise.
Thomas: Peep! Peep! Peep! Where is the guard?!
Annie and Clarabel: We've left him behind!

[edit] Thomas Goes Fishing

Driver: (to Thomas, who often wants to stay at the bridge and watch people fishing) No, what would the Fat Controller say if we were late?
Thomas: I want to fish!
James: Engines don't go fishing!
Thomas: Silly stick-in-the-muds!
(the Fat Controller peers into Thomas' tank)
The Fat Controller: Inspector, can you see... fish?! Gracious, goodness me! How did the fish get there, Driver?!
Driver: We must've fished them from the river with our bucket.
The Fat Controller: Well, Thomas, so you and your Driver have been fishing. But fish don't suit you. We must get them out!
(everyone takes turns at fishing in Thomas' tank; after all fish have been caught, they have a picnic supper of fish and chips)
The Fat Controller: (finishes meal) MMM! That was good! But fish don't suit you, Thomas, so you mustn't do it again.
Thomas: No, Sir, I won't. Engines don't go fishing. It's too uncomfortable!

[edit] Thomas, Terence, and the Snow/Terence the Tractor

Terence: Hello! I'm Terence. I'm plowing.
Thomas: I'm Thomas. I'm pulling a train. What ugly wheels you've got!
Terence: They're not ugly. They're caterpillars! I can go anywhere. I don't need rails.
Thomas: I don't want to go anywhere. I like my rails. Thank you.

[edit] Thomas and Bertie/Thomas and Bertie's Great Race

Thomas: Hello! Who are you?
Bertie: I'm Bertie. Who are you?
Thomas: I'm Thomas. I run this Branch Line.
Bertie: So you're Thomas. Ah! I remember now! You got stuck in the snow. I took your passengers, and Terence the Tractor pulled you out. I've come to help you with your passengers today.
Thomas: Help me?! I can go faster than you!
Bertie: You can't.
Thomas: I can!
Bertie: I'll race you!
Stationmaster: Are you ready?! GO!

[edit] Tenders and Turntables

Gordon: [James is about to go on the turn table] Take care. You might stick too.
James: No fear, I'm not as fat as you.
Gordon: Well, well! Are you playing roundabouts?
Narrator: That night, the three engines had an indignation meeting.
Henry: It's shameful to treat tender engines like this, Gordon has to go backwards and people think he's a tank engine, James spins round like a top and everyone laughs at us! And to add to that, Sir Topham Hatt makes us all shunt in dirty sidings!
Gordon: Ugh! Listen!
Narrator: He whispered something to the others.
Gordon: We'll do it tomorrow. Sir Topham Hatt will look silly.
Narrator: The engines had decided to go on strike.

[edit] Trouble in the Shed

Thomas: Common Tank Engines, indeed. We'll show them!
Sir Topham Hatt: Bless me! What a noise!
Edward: They all hissed me, Sir. They say tender engines don't shunt, and last night, they said I have black wheels! I haven't, have I, Sir?
Sir Topham Hatt: No, Edward. You have nice, blue ones, and I'm proud of you. Tender engines do shunt. But all the same, we do need another tank engine here.

[edit] Percy Runs Away

Gordon: Ohhhh!! GET OUT OF MY WAY!!!
Gordon: Well done, Percy! You started so quickly that you stopped a nasty accident!
Percy: I'm sorry I was cheeky.
Gordon: You were clever to stop.

[edit] Coal/Henry's Special Coal

Henry: I suffer dreadfully, and no one cares.
James: Rubbish, Henry! You don't work hard enough!
Sir Topham Hatt: What's wrong with you, Henry? You've had lots of new parts and new paint, too, but they've done you no good. If we can't make you better, we must get another engine instead of you to do the work.

[edit] The Flying Kipper

Driver: We'll be out early tomorrow. We've got to take the Flying Kipper. Don't tell Gordon, but I think if we pull the kipper nicely, Sir Topham Hatt will let us pull the express! The special coal they gave you is working well.
Henry: Hooray! That will be lovely!
Henry: Come on! Come on! Don't be silly! Don't be silly!
Vans: Trickety-trock! Trickety-trock! All right! All right!
Henry: That's better. That's better.

[edit] Whistles and Sneezes

Gordon: Why should Henry have a new shape? A shape good enough for me is good enough for him. He goes gallavanting off to Crewe, leaving us to do his work, and comes back saying how happy he feels. It's disgraceful! And there's another thing: Henry whistles too much! No respectable engine ever whistles loudly at stations. It isn't wrong, but we just don't do it!
Sir Topham Hatt: Take him away! And stop that noise!
Coaches: (about the boys on the bridge, who dropped stones) They've broken our glass! They've broken our glass!
Passengers: Call the police!
Driver: No! Leave it to Henry and me.
Passengers: What will you do?
Driver: Can you keep a secret?
Passengers: Yes! Yes!
Driver: Well, then, Henry is going to sneeze at those boys.
Driver: Henry has plenty of ashes. Please keep all windows shut till we pass the bridge. Henry's as excited as we are. Aren't you, old fellow?
Narrator: Henry was feeling "stuffed-up".

[edit] Toby and the Stout Gentleman/Toby the Tram Engine

Henrietta: Hip-Hip-Hooray!
Narrator: But Toby didn't sing.
Toby: Electric, indeed. Electric, indeed!
Narrator: He was proud of being a steam train.

[edit] Thomas in Trouble/Thomas Breaks the Rules

Policeman: Engines going on public roads must have their wheels covered and a cowcatcher in front to protect people and animals from being dragged under the wheels if they stray onto the line. (directly to Thomas) You haven't, so you are dangerous!
Driver: Rubbish! We've been along here hundreds of times and never had an accident!
Policeman: That makes it worse.
(he writes "Regular Law Breaker" in his notebook as Thomas exits)
Narrator: At the station, Thomas' driver told Sir Topham Hatt what had happened.
Sir Topham Hatt: Dangerous to the public, indeed! We'll see about that!
Narrator: Sir Topham Hatt spoke to the Policeman. But however much he argued with him, it was no good.
Policeman: The law is the law, and we can't change it.
Narrator: Sir Topham Hatt felt exhausted.
Sir Topham Hatt: I'm sorry, Driver. It's no use arguing with policemen. We will have to make those "cowcatcher" things for Thomas, I suppose.
Thomas: Everyone will laugh, Sir! They'll say I look like a tram!
Narrator: Sir Topham Hatt stared, then he laughed.
Sir Topham Hatt: Well done, Thomas! Why didn't I think of it before?! We need a tram engine! When I was on my holiday, I met a nice little engine called Toby. He takes freight cars from the farms, but the trucks are taking over most of his work and he needs a change. He has cowcatchers and sideplates. I'll write to his superintendent at once.

[edit] Dirty Objects/James in a Mess

Narrator: Disaster lay ahead.
[James crashes into the tar wagons]
Narrator: Something sticky splashed all over James. He had ran into two tar wagons and was black from smokebox to cab. He was more dirty than hurt. But the tar wagons and some trucks were all to pieces. Toby and Percy were sent to help, and came as quickly as they could.
Toby: Look here, Percy! Whatever is that dirty object?
Percy: That's James. Didn't you know?
Toby: It's James' shape. But James is a splendid red engine, and you never see his paint dirty.
Narrator: James pretended he hadn't heard.

[edit] Off the Rails/Gordon Takes a Dip

Gordon: I won't go! I won't go!
Gordon: Oosh! Get me out! Get me out!!

[edit] Down the Mine

Thomas: PHEW! What a funny smell! Can you smell a smell?
Annie: I can't smell a smell.
Thomas: A funny, musty sort of smell.
Gordon: No one noticed it 'til you did. It must be yours.
Narrator: Not long ago, he had fallen into a dirty ditch. Thomas enjoyed teasing him about it.
Thomas: Annie, Clarabel, do you know what I think it is? It's ditch water!

[edit] Thomas' Christmas Party

Annie and Clarabel: It's always the same before Christmas. We feel so full! We feel so full!
Thomas: Oh, come on! Where's your festive spirit? Christmas Day is almost here!
Gordon: Ha! Just look at us. Your driver will have to work fast to get you as smart as us.
Thomas: Never mind that. I have something important to say. Do you realize it's been a whole year since Mrs. Kyndley saved us from a nasty accident?
(he has a flashback of what happened)
Thomas: You remember, when she was ill and bed, and...?
Edward: Yes, of course. You told us how she waved her red dressing gown out of her window to warn you about a landslide ahead.
Percy: And you and Toby gave her presents. And Sir Topham Hatt sent her to the seaside to get better.
James: But...
Henry: The rest of us never thanked her properly.
Thomas: Exactly! So, now I think we should all give her a special Christmas party.

[edit] Season 2

[edit] Thomas, Percy, and the Coal/Double Trouble

Percy: Hello, Thomas! You look splendid!
Thomas: Yes, indeed! Blue is the only proper color for an engine.
Toby: Oh, I don't know. I like my brown paint.
Percy: I've always been green. I wouldn't wanna be any other color, either.
Thomas: Well, well, anyway, blue is the only color for a really useful engine. Everyone knows that!
(he huffs away)
Narrator: Percy said no more. He just grinned at Toby.
Thomas: (watches the hopper load Percy's trucks full of coal) Careful. Watch out with those silly trucks!
Trucks: Go on! Go on! Go on!
Thomas: And by the way, those buffers don't look very safe to me!
(too late, Percy accidentally hits the unsafe buffers)
(the last load of coal pours down on Thomas)
Thomas: HELP!!! I'M CHOKING!! Get me out!
Narrator: Percy was worried, but he couldn't help laughing. Thomas' smart blue paint was covered in coal dust, from smoke-box to bunker.
Percy: Ha ha! You don't look really useful now, Thomas. You look really disgraceful!
Thomas: I'm not disgraceful! You did that on purpose! GET ME OUT!!

[edit] Cows

(after hearing about Edward's problem with his trucks)
Gordon: Fancy allowing cows to break your train!
Henry: They wouldn't dare do that to us. We'd show them!
Henry: What this? A cow? I'll soon settle her. Be off, be off!
Cow: Moo!
Narrator: Henry backed away, nervously.
Henry: I don't want to hurt her.

[edit] Bertie's Chase

Edward: Beep! Beep! We're late! Where's Thomas?! He doesn't usually make us wait!
Fireman: (sings) Oh, dear. What can the matter be? Johnny, so long, and...
Driver: Never you mind about Johnny! Just you climb on the cab and look for Thomas.
(the fireman climbs on top of Edward's cab)
Driver: Can you see him?
Fireman: No. There's Bertie Bus in a tearing hurry. No need to bother with him, though. Likely, he's on a coach tour or something.

[edit] Saved From Scrap

Edward: Hello! You're not broken and rusty. What are you doing here?
Trevor: I'm Trevor. They're going to break me up next week.
Edward: What a shame!
Trevor: My driver says I only need some paint, polish, and oil to be as good as new, but my master says I'm old-fashioned.
Edward: People say I'm old-fashioned, but I don't care. The Fat Controller says I'm a Useful Engine. What work did you do?
Trevor: My master would send us from farm to farm. We threshed corn, hauled logs, and did lots of other work. The children loved to see us.
Narrator: And Trevor shut his eyes, remembering.
Trevor: Oh, yes. I like children.

[edit] Old Iron

James: Edward is impossible! He clanks about like a lot of old iron, and he is so slow, he makes us wait!
Narrator: Thomas and Percy were indignant.
Percy: Old iron?! Slow?!
Thomas: Why, Edward could beat you in a race any day!
James: Really?! I should like to see him do it!

[edit] Thomas and Trevor/A New Friend for Thomas

Narrator: Trevor the Traction Engine enjoyed living in the Vicarage Orcahrd. Edward came to see him every day. But sometimes, Trevor didn't have enough work to do.
Trevor: I do like to keep busy all the time, and I do like company. Especially children's company.
Edward: Cheer up. The Fat Controller has work for you at his new Harbor. I'm to take you to meet Thomas today.
Trevor: Oh! The Harbor! The seaside! Children! That will be lovely!

[edit] Percy and the Signal

Inspector: Show a wheel, James. You can't stay here all day.
James: The Fat Controller told me to stay here. He sent a message this morning.
Inspector: He did not. How could he? He's away for a week.
James: Oh. Oh! Where's Percy?!
Narrator: Percy had wisely disappeared. When The Fat Controller came back, He did see James and Percy, too. Both engines wished he hadn't.

[edit] Duck Takes Charge

Duck: They'll get tired of it soon. Do they tell you to do things, Percy?
Percy: Yes, they do!
Duck: Right. We'll soon stop that nonsense.
Narrator: He whispered something.
Duck: We'll do it later.
Sir Topham Hatt: Stop that noise!
Gordon: They won't let us in!
Sir Topham Hatt: Duck, explain this behavior.
Duck: Beg pardon, Sir, but I'm a Great Western Engine. We do our work without fuss. But begging your pardon, Sir, Percy and I would be glad if you would inform these engines that we only take orders from you.
(the other engines furiously blow their whistles again)
Sir Topham Hatt: SILENCE!!!

[edit] Thomas Comes to Breakfast

Sir Topham Hatt: You are a very naughty engine.
Thomas: I know, Sir. I'm sorry, Sir.
Narrator: Thomas' voice was muffled behind his bush.
Sir Topham Hatt: You must go to the works and have your front mended. It will be a long job.
Thomas: Yes, Sir!
Sir Topham Hatt: Meanwhile, a diesel rail car will do your work.
Thomas: A-A-A d-diesel, Sir?!
Sir Topham Hatt: Yes, Thomas. Diesels always stay in their sheds till they are wanted. Diesels never gallavant off to breakfast in stationmasters' houses.
Stationmaster's Wife: [to Thomas] You miserable engine! Just look what you've done to our breakfast! Now I shall have to cook some more!
Thomas: Horrors!!

[edit] Percy Takes the Plunge

Sir Topham Hatt: You are a very disobedient engine.
Narrator: Percy knew that voice.
Percy: Please, Sir. Get me out, Sir. I'm truly sorry, Sir.
Sir Topham Hatt: No, Percy. We cannot do that till high tide. I hope it will teach you to obey orders.
Percy: Yes, sir!
Henry: Well, well, well. Did you like the water?
Percy: No!
Henry: I am surprised. You need more determination, Percy. Water's nothing to an engine with determination, you know. Perhaps you will like it better next time.
Narrator: Percy is quite determined that there won't be a "next time"!

[edit] Break Van/Donald and Douglas

Donald: You're a mockle nuisance! It's to leave you behind, I be wantin'.
Brake Van: You can't! I'm essential!
Donald: Och! Are you?! You're nothin' but a screechin' and a noise when all's said and done. Spite Doggie, would ya? TAKE THAT!!
(he rams the van)
Brake Van: OW! OOH!
Donald: There's more comin', should ya misbehave!
Douglas: Anyone would think that Donald had had his accident on purpose. I hear tell about an engine an some tar wagons.
James: Shut up! It's not funny!
Narrator: He didn't like to be reminded of his own accident.
Douglas: Well, well, well! Surely, James, it wasn't you. Ya didn't say!
Narrator: James didn't say. He slouched sulkily away.
James: I can't do it! I can't do it!
Douglas: Leave it to me!
Narrator: The guard was anxious.
Guard: Go steady! The van's breaking!
(Douglas smashes the van to bits)
Narrator: The van was in pieces!

[edit] The Deputation

Percy: Edward says we need a... a depostation!
Gordon: Of course! The question is...
Henry: What is a..... desperation?
Percy: It's when engines tell the Fat Controller something's wrong.
Duck: Did you say "tell the Fat Controller"?
Narrator: There was a long silence.
Gordon: I purpose that Percy be our... uh... disputation.
Percy: I?! I can't!
Henry: Rubbish, Percy! It's easy.
Gordon: That settled, then.
Narrator: Poor Percy wished it wasn't.
The Fat Controller: Hello, Percy. It's nice to be back.
Percy: (jumps) Uh, uh, yes, Sir! Yes, Sir! Please, Sir!
The Fat Controller: You look nervous, Percy. What's the matter?
Percy: Please, Sir, they've made me a "desperation", Sir, uh, to--to speak to you, Sir. I-I don't like it, Sir.
Narrator: The Fat Controller pondered.
The Fat Controller: Do you mean a deputation, Percy?
Percy: Yes, Sir, please, Sir. Uh, it's Donald and Douglas, Sir. They say, Sir, that if you send them away, Sir, well, they'll be turned into scrap, Sir. That would be dreadful, Sir. Uh, please, Sir, don't send them away!
The Fat Controller: Thank you, Percy. That will do.

[edit] Pop Goes the Diesel

Trucks: [groan while Diesel tries pulling them] We can't! We won't!
Trucks: [sing at Diesel]
Trucks are waiting in the yard,
tackling them with ease'll.
Show the world what I can do.
Gaily boasts the Diesel.
In and out, he creeps about,
like a big black weasel.
When he pulls the wrong trucks out
"POP!" goes the Diesel!

[edit] Dirty Work

Duck: Shut up!
(he bumps the cars hard)
Duck: I'm sorry our cars were rude to you, Diesel.
Narrator: Diesel was still furious.
Diesel: It's all your fault. You made them laugh at me.
Henry: Nonsense! Duck would never do that. We engines have our differences but we never talk about them to the cars. That would be dis-dis...
Gordon: Disgraceful!
James: Disgusting!
Henry: Despicable!
James: Keep out!
Duck: Stop fooling! I'm tired!
Gordon, James and Henry: So are we. We're tired of you. We like Diesel. We don't like you. You tell tales about us to the cars.
Duck: I don't!
Gordon, James and Henry: You do!
Duck: I don't!
Gordon, James and Henry: You DO!
Gordon: Duck called me a galloping sausage!
James: Rusty red scrap iron!
Henry: I'm old square wheels!

[edit] A Close Shave (for Duck)

Narrator: The silly cars had knocked their guard off his van and left him far behind after he had whistled a warning. But the trucks didn't care. They were feeling very pleased with themselves!
Sir Topham Hatt : When you are washed and mended, you are coming home.
Duck: Home? Do you mean the yard?
Sir Topham Hatt : Of course!
Duck: But sir, they don't like me. They like Diesel.
Sir Topham Hatt : Not now. I never believed Diesel, so I sent him packing. The engines are sorry and want you back.
[Thomas, Percy and James are whistling]

[edit] Better Late Than Never

(Bertie's radiator is steaming)
Thomas: What's the matter? You should be at the station now. You're late!
Bertie: I feel dreadful. All upset inside! And driver says he can't make me better. Thank goodness you're late, too. Can you take my passengers, please? They'll never get home, otherwise.
Thomas: Of course!
Narrator: He now felt sorry for Bertie and promised to get help at the next station.

[edit] Woolly Bear

Narrator: Percy gave a ghostly whistle.
Percy: Don't be frightened, Thomas. It's only me.
Thomas: Your ugly fizz is enough to frighten everyone! You're like....
Percy: Ugly, indeed? I'm.....
Thomas: A green caterpillar with red stripes! You crawl like one too!
Percy: I don't!
Thomas: Who's been late every afternoon this week?
Percy: It's the hay!
Thomas: I can't help that. Time's time and Sir Topham Hatt relies on me to keep it! I can't if you crawl in the hay until all hours!
Percy: Green caterpillar, indeed!


[edit] The Diseasel

Driver: That's diesel.
Bill: It's a what'll?!
Ben: A diseasel, I think. There's a notice about them in our shed.
Bill: Coughs and sneezles spread diseasels.
Ben: You had a cough in your smokebox yesterday. It's your fault that the Diseasel came.
Bill: It isn't!
Ben: It is!
Drivers: Stop arguing, you 2. Let's go and rescue our trucks.
Narrator: Bill and Ben were horrified!
Bill and Ben: But the Diseasel will magic us away like the trucks!
Drivers: He won't magic us. We'll more likely magic him!
BoCo: Do you mind?
Bill: Yes. I do. I want my trucks, please.
BoCo: These are mine. Go away!
Narrator: Bill pretended to be frightened.
Bill: You're a big bully! You'll be sorry!
Narrator: He ran back and hid behind the trucks on the other side. Ben now came forward.
Ben: Truck-stealer!
Narrator: He ran away too. Bill took his place.

[edit] Wrong Road

Gordon: It's not fair.
Edward: What isn't fair?
Gordon: Letting branch line diesels pull main line trains.
Edward: Never mind, Gordon. I'm sure Boco will let you pull his trucks sometimes.
Narrator: Gordon spluttered.
Gordon: I won't pull Boco's dirty trucks! I won't run on branch lines!
Edward: Why not? It would be a nice change.
Gordon: The Fat Controller would never approve. Branchlines are vulgar.
Narrator: He puffed away. Edward chuckled and followed him to the station.
Narrator: Next morning, Bill and Ben peeped in the yard. There were no trucks for them but they didn't mind that. Teasing Gordon would be much better fun.
Bill: What's that?
Ben: SHH! It's Gordon.
Bill: It looks like Gordon but it can't be. Gordon never comes on the branch lines. He thinks them vulgar.
Narrator: Gordon pretended he hadn't heard them.
Ben: If it isn't Gordon, it's just a pile of old iron.
Bill: Which we'd better take to the scrap yard.
Ben: No, Bill. This lot's useless for scrap. We'll take it to the harbor and dump it in the sea.
Narrator: Gordon was alarmed.
Gordon: I am Gordon! STOP! STOP!

[edit] Edward's Exploit

Henry: Did you see him straining?
James: Positively painful.
Gordon: Just pathetic! He should give up and be preserved before it's too late!
Duck: Shut up! You're all jealous. Edward's better than any of you!
Boco: You're right, Duck. Edward's old but he'll surprise us all.
Edward: I've done it! We're off! I've done it! We're off!

[edit] Season 3

[edit] No Joke for James

Narrator: Thomas was shunting shining new coaches.
Thomas: Good morning, James!
James: Are those coaches for me?
Thomas: No. These are for Gordon's Express. I'll fetch your trucks next.
Narrator: But James was going to play a trick on the other engines.
James: Actually, Thomas, I'm taking the coaches. The Fat Controller asked me to tell you.
Thomas: What about the trucks?
James: Uh, give them to Gordon.
Thomas' Driver: Come on, Thomas. Orders are orders.

[edit] Season 5

[edit] Stepney Gets Lost

(Arry and Bert approach Stepney)
Arry: Got ya this time, Stepney! You'll make very fine scrap, indeed. Buffer him, Bert!
(Bert does so, and he and Arry take him to the smelter shed)
Arry: Bye-bye, Stepney! (laughs)
