00:00Santa's little engine.
00:09Everyone on the island of Sodor was getting ready for the holidays.
00:15Thomas was bringing visitors to the Christmas fair at Ulstead Castle, and no one was more excited than the Earl...
00:23Hello, Thomas!
00:25...who was planning the best Christmas fair ever.
00:28Welcome, everybody. Please, make your way through to the Exhibition Centre. Mind your step now.
00:36Then the Fat Controller arrived in Winston.
00:40Hello, Sir Topham. Glad you could make it.
00:44Glad to help out, Sir Robert. What do you want me to do?
00:48Well, I was hoping that you could dress up as Santa Claus for the last day of the fair.
00:55Yes, of course. I filled in for the real Santa Claus before.
01:01Ho, ho, ho!
01:07Super! And I'm planning to get you an old-fashioned sleigh.
01:13A sleigh? But I've never driven a sleigh before.
01:18Why can't I just arrive in Winston? I'm very good at driving him. Aren't I, Winston?
01:25Yes, sir. Of course you are, sir.
01:29Driving a sleigh isn't difficult, honestly. There's nothing to worry about. Goodbye, Sir Topham.
01:38But the Fat Controller was worried.
01:42So the Fat Controller took Winston to the steamworks to see if they could make him look like a sleigh.
01:51BELL RINGS
02:04Thank you, Victor. Thank you, Kevin. Winston looks wonderful!
02:15But Victor and Kevin were not so sure.
02:20And neither was Winston.
02:25Thomas had just dropped off another load of passengers.
02:31Oh, my! Is that really...
02:35Winston?
02:44What have they done to you?
02:47The Fat Controller wants me to be his sleigh. But I feel silly.
02:52You look a little silly too.
02:55Wait until you see him, Sir Robert. They've done a splendid job and...
03:01Ho, ho, ho! Oh, Sir Topham, this will never do. No one would believe that's the real Santa's sleigh.
03:09But I...
03:11My mind is made up. I'm getting you a proper sleigh.
03:16Are you sure that's safe? I've never driven a sleigh before.
03:22It'll be fine. Nothing will happen.
03:26BELL RINGS
03:31And so, on the last day of the fair, Thomas was sent to the docks to collect a very special special.
03:39It was the sleigh for the Fat Controller to ride in.
03:43Careful with that, Cranky!
03:45You should be careful yourself, Thomas. It's going to be a freeze. The rails could get icy.
03:52OK, Cranky. I'll be careful too.
03:56Thomas puffed cheerily through the snow as he made his way back to Ulstead Castle.
04:02I can't wait to see the children's faces when they see the Fat Controller arrive on his sleigh as Santa Claus.
04:11CINDERS AND ASHES
04:14Cinders and ashes! Cranky was right. It really is icy today.
04:20Thomas' wheels slipped on the icy tracks as he climbed the slope to Ulstead Castle.
04:27But he managed to get a grip.
04:30The Earl was waiting for Thomas on the castle grounds.
04:34Ah, Thomas, am I glad to see you. We must unload the sleigh and get everything ready.
04:41The children are waiting. It's nearly time for Santa Claus to arrive.
04:47Where is Santa Claus?
04:49He's not here.
04:51What do you think, Sir Topham? Isn't this just the most beautiful sleigh you've ever seen?
04:58I, er, suppose so.
05:02It's the most beautiful sleigh I've ever seen.
05:06It's the most beautiful sleigh I've ever seen.
05:10It's the most beautiful sleigh I've ever seen.
05:14It's the most beautiful sleigh I've ever seen.
05:19I, er, suppose so, but, er, perhaps it would be safer if I just walked in to greet the children.
05:28Don't worry, Sir. I'm sure you'll be fine.
05:31Thomas is right. You make yourself comfortable and I'll collect the reindeer.
05:36Reindeer? You never said anything about reindeer.
05:42Thomas, you should probably back out of the way now.
05:46Right you are, Sir.
05:48Thomas started to back up, but the sleigh had been left across the rails behind him.
05:55Stop! Look out!
05:57Thomas tried to stop, but the rails were too icy.
06:02Oh!
06:03Then there was trouble.
06:05Oh, no! Oh, no!
06:10Cinders nashes!
06:13Oh, help! Help! I've never driven a sleigh before!
06:22Hold on, Sir. I'm coming to help you.
06:25Stop! Stop! Stop! How do you stop this thing? Oh, no!
06:32Sir!
06:34Thomas! Help!
06:38Thomas! Help!
06:47Sir Topham? Are you all right?
06:51Sir, all the children are waiting, Sir. Where are the reindeer and the sleigh?
06:57The sleigh has gone down the hill, Stephen, with Santa Claus, I mean Sir Topham Hatt, inside it.
07:04Oh, no!
07:09Thomas!
07:13Thomas was climbing back up the slippery hill, pulling the flat controller in the big sleigh behind him.
07:21Thomas had caught some branches on his funnel.
07:24They made him look like a reindeer.
07:27Ho, ho, ho, ho, ho, ha, ha, ha!
07:32I told you I didn't know how to drive a sleigh, Sir Robert.
07:38Ho, ho, good thing you had Thomas to be your reindeer then.
07:42Actually, there is just one thing that would make Thomas look even better.
07:52Ho, ho, it's Thomas, the red-nosed engine.
07:57Ho, ho, off you go, Thomas. The children are waiting.
08:08The real Santa Claus would be proud of us, Thomas.
08:13And Thomas, the red-nosed engine, pulled Sodor's Santa Claus on his sleigh into the castle.
08:21The red-nosed engine pulled Sodor's Santa Claus on his sleigh into the castle to greet all the children.
08:30Ho, ho, ho, Merry Christmas, everyone!
08:38Yay! Merry Christmas!
