Engines Must Cooperate for Successful Landings

Thomas: Excuse me.

Thomas: Uh, excuse me.

Diesel 10: [gets told by Thomas about the blocked tracks] What do you want?! Why would I help a steamie?!

Thomas: Because if the airplane doesn’t land, there will be no holidaymakers, then none of the engines will be useful.

Diesel 10: Hmmm, maybe I will help later.

Thomas: [gasps] But we need your help now, or all of the engines will have work for nothing! You’ll be the most useful engine of all.

Diesel 10: Oh, all right! I will help!

Conflict Between Steamies and Diesels Emerges

Arry: Trust a steamie to be late.

Bert: This whole mess is the Steamies fault.

Percy: No, it’s not! The diesel engines started it.

Narrator: This made the diesels cross.

Arry: Maybe we should teach the Steamies a lesson.

Narrator: Thomas finally puffed into the coaling plant. He blew his whistle and all of the engines went quiet.

Thomas: Steamies and Diesels need to work together.

Diesel: We don’t want to work with Stinky Steamies.

James: We don’t want to work with dirty diesels either!

Thomas: If the airport doesn’t open, it would be bad for all the engines. Both steam engines and diesel engines need passengers and freight to be useful.

Engines' Nighttime Worries and Dreams

Narrator: And that night, they dreamed about what might happen to them. "If no holidaymakers came to Sodor..." The engines were all very worried that they wouldn't be useful again. James was dreaming about the fairground...

Narrator: James dreamt that he was a coconut shy! Lots of children were lining up, and so was the Fat Controller.

Narrator: The children threw lots of balls at James, and one even knocked the coconut out of his funnel!

James: I don't like this! I was much happier when I was a clean and shiny engine!

Narrator: But it wasn't only James who was having a bad dream. Gordon was having a bad dream, too!

Narrator: Gordon dreamt he was put in a playground. Children were swinging on him. They slid down his slide, and they climbed all over him.

Gordon: The indignity! I wish I was a proper engine again!

Narrator: [Edward's dream is shown. He is dressed as a scarecrow in a field] Edward dreamt he was a scarecrow. He sat in a field, up to his axles in mud. And Farmer McColl didn't seem to care!

Narrator: [Percy's dream is shown, him as a roller coaster] But Percy had the worst dream of all! He dreamt he was a roller coaster ride. He rattled up the rickety rails and all the way down again.

Percy: Bust my boiler!

Diesel's Mischief Causes Trouble for Thomas

Narrator: But Diesel was in the yard, too.

Diesel: [proceeds to bump the flat bed loaded with paint cans] Now I'll show Thomas who's best.

Narrator: ...and he gave his trucks a bump. Paint pots flew into the air and splattered down all over Thomas. There was green paint, yellow paint, and red paint. Thomas looked very silly indeed.

Diesel: [reverses away] Stripy boiler!

Thomas: I'll show those diesels!

Narrator: So the next time Thomas saw Arry, he gave him a biff.

Narrator: And when Arry saw James, he gave him a bump.

Narrator: Soon the diesels and steamies were biffing and banging...

Narrator: ... and being bumped all over the island.

Narrator: The engines were in a terrible mess! Everyone needed a good wash-down, and no work had been done.

Thomas: Cinders and ashes! What's happened to our sheds?

Sir Topham Hatt: [holding a bunch of bananas] And bananas are no good for building sheds!

Narrator: The steam engines were cross at the diesel engines. The diesels had ruined their home. But Thomas was sad. He knew it was his fault.

Henry: Now where will we sleep?
