00:00Buster the steamroller loves the feeling of speed, the sun on his back and the wind on his rollers.
00:13Don't fall asleep, chuffed Thomas. I'm thinking, said Buster, but he wasn't.
00:20He was dreaming about what it would feel like to win a race.
00:30Thomas had brought Buster to the Sodor racetrack where his friends were working.
00:36They were going to finish the track today.
00:39It was a responsible job. The track had to be made safe.
00:44Buster flattened the track around the final bend.
00:48He was still dreaming about winning a race.
00:52And the winner is Buster, the fastest steamroller in the world!
01:00Vroom, vroom, Buster cried.
01:05You think you're fast, teased Monty.
01:08If you were going any slower, you'd be going backwards, teased Max.
01:13But Buster paid no attention. He was having too much fun.
01:19Finally the work was finished and Miss Jenny came to inspect the site.
01:25You're a good crew, said Miss Jenny, but the track still needs testing.
01:30Can I test it, Miss Jenny, asked Buster.
01:33I'm the fastest steamroller in the world.
01:36More like the slowest, snickered Max.
01:39Monty snickered too.
01:41Perhaps all three of you should test it, said Miss Jenny.
01:45The foreman will give you the all-clear, but remember no speeding.
01:49Of course not, said Monty.
01:52But Max and Monty knew they were going to go as fast as they could.
01:58They waited for the foreman to give the all-clear signal.
02:02I'm ready, cried Buster.
02:05You couldn't beat a snail, said Max.
02:08Not even a sleepy snail, added Monty.
02:11The foreman raised his flag.
02:14Max and Monty were speeding away.
02:22You jumped the signal, grumbled Monty.
02:25Did not, snapped Max.
02:27Buster trundled happily down the track as fast as his rollers would carry him,
02:33which wasn't very fast at all.
02:36Monty was so cross he bumped Max.
02:39Ow, cried Max. You've dented me.
02:42You're in the way, snapped Monty.
02:45Buster was having a wonderful time.
02:49Max was cross with Monty.
02:51He decided to bump him back.
02:54Before they knew it, they skidded off the track and into a ditch.
03:03Meanwhile, Buster trundled happily on.
03:09Mmm, said the bull.
03:12Ooh, said Monty and Max, and they struggled out of the ditch.
03:20Monty and Max sped down the track.
03:25Buster was trundling towards the finish.
03:28Go Buster, cheered the other machines.
03:32Hurray for Buster, go Buster.
03:36Oh no, said Monty.
03:39It can't be, said Max.
03:41But it was too late.
03:44Buster chuffed and puffed across the finish line.
03:48When Max and Monty crossed the line, they were still arguing.
03:52I came second, cried Max.
03:54Third, snapped Monty.
03:56You won, Buster, said Jack.
03:59And I wasn't even speedy, he said.
04:03When Thomas came to collect Buster, he was pleased.
04:07I brought a steamroller, he said.
04:10But I'm taking a champion back.
04:12And he helped prove the track is safe without speeding, added Miss Jenny.
04:18Buster was proud.
04:20Vroom, vroom, he said, as Thomas chuffed past Monty and Max.
04:25I did come second, said Max.
04:27Third, snapped Monty.
