00:00One morning, I was taking Jack and Alfie to the old lead mines, along my branch line.
00:11What work are you going to do there?
00:13Miss Jenny says that the area is being made into a visitor's park.
00:18Why have you stopped here, Thomas?
00:24Can't you go any closer?
00:28Sorry, I can't. The last time I was here, I fell into a mine shaft.
00:34I'm still not sure if the ground is strong enough.
00:37OK, Thomas. Thanks for the lift.
00:40Ah, there you two are.
00:42Jack and Alfie, I want you working on the park's entrance.
00:46Darcy, you will need to dig a tunnel through the rock face for the new road leading in.
00:51That's all she can do, is dig tunnels.
00:54Yeah, like a little mole.
00:57And Monty, pay attention, please.
01:00I need you to dump rubble at the front of the mine shafts and stay within the safety flags.
01:07That goes for everyone.
01:09Yes, Miss Jenny.
01:11And remember the number one rule.
01:14Safety first.
01:16Right, everyone, to work.
01:28Wait your turn, Monty. One at a time.
01:33Oh, this is ridiculous.
01:35How are we supposed to get the job done when we have to go through such small spaces?
01:41I know. It makes the work much slower.
01:49We'd be better going the other way around where it's more spacious.
01:54But that's where the old mine shafts are, Monty.
01:57The ground isn't safe. You might be too heavy.
02:00Then how would you know?
02:03I'm a tunnel boring machine.
02:05Exactly. You're boring.
02:08There's a lot more to tunnels than just digging them, you know.
02:12Right, you guys are all set.
02:25Hey, that way looks much faster.
02:30Looks safe enough to me. This route will be much quicker.
02:36But Monty was about to get himself into deep trouble.
02:41I don't know what that silly tunnel digger was so worried about.
02:46This ground is as hard as the stone in my number bed.
02:51What's happening?
02:53Help!
02:55Monty?
02:57Where'd you go?
03:02Max, I'm down here.
03:05Just stay there. I'll go and get help. Don't move.
03:10I'm not exactly going anywhere.
03:21Help!
03:35He's gone down pretty deep, but I can see him.
03:39Wouldn't chance it with Rocky, though.
03:41The ground might not be stable enough.
03:44But you can't just leave him there.
03:47What's going to happen to him?
03:52Max! Something's happening!
03:56Help!
04:14G'day, copper.
04:16We wouldn't just leave him down under.
04:21Monty may have disobeyed the danger flags,
04:24but we'd never leave even a naughty lorry behind.
04:27It'll take a long time to dig him out, though,
04:30even with myself, Jack and Oliver all working together.
04:33What about Darcy?
04:35Yes! Darcy can dig a tunnel to Monty.
04:39She's a very fast digger, the fastest on the team.
04:43Darcy!
04:44Great idea, Jack. Go and get her, please.
04:47Right on it, Miss Jenny.
04:51Darcy, we need your help, urgently.
04:54What's wrong?
04:55Monty has fallen into a mineshaft. We need you to dig him out.
05:00I warned him, but he didn't listen.
05:04Don't worry, Monty. Help is on the way.
05:13Darcy, where are you going? Monty is down there.
05:17It's OK, Max. Darcy knows what she's doing.
05:29Aim and...
05:31Drill!
05:37Oh, will I ever see daylight again?
05:41I hope hell comes soon.
05:50Who's there?
06:03Well done, Darcy!
06:06Spot on, Darcy. You're a credit to the team.
06:10Thank you for rescuing me, Darcy.
06:13I don't know how I would have gotten out without you.
06:16Thanks. It was nothing, really. Just doing my job.
06:20And we're very sorry for teasing you.
06:23You really are a very good digger.
06:25The best!
06:27I'm sure this has taught you a lesson, Monty,
06:30about the importance of listening to instructions.
06:33Yes, Miss Jenny. I'm sorry.
06:36Good.
06:38I'll arrange for Thomas to take you back to the yards for repairs.
06:42Hello, everyone. Ready to fill in the mine... shafts?
06:46Oh, what did I miss?
06:49Oh, certainly nothing boring.
