00:00The island of Sodor is a busy, bustling place.
00:08There is always lots for the engines to do.
00:19One morning, Thomas was shunting trucks in the yard, when the Fat Controller came to see him.
00:27The fishermen have caught their biggest catch of fish ever.
00:31Thomas, you must help Arthur take them to the docks.
00:36Thomas was fed up. He didn't like the smell of fish.
00:44And when he got to the fishing village, there were lots of trucks, all stacked full of fish.
00:51Thomas has never seen so many fish.
00:55Phew! he puffed. What a horrible smell!
01:02Then, Arthur arrived.
01:05Arthur warned Thomas that the route to Brendam Docks was bumpy.
01:10Only take five trucks at a time, said Arthur, and go slow and steady.
01:17Arthur carefully collected five trucks.
01:20Then he puffed slowly out of the harbour yard.
01:25Thomas looked at all the fish trucks.
01:28He didn't want to go slow and steady.
01:31He wanted to get his smelly job over with.
01:36So Thomas shunted all of the trucks into a long line.
01:41So Thomas shunted all of the trucks into a long line.
01:48And he puffed out of the village.
01:54The trucks were heavy and smelly, but Thomas was pleased his job would soon be over.
02:01But then the troublesome trucks decided to have some fun.
02:06The trucks wiggled and they giggled.
02:10They made Thomas' journey very bumpy.
02:13Some of the fish were shaken loose.
02:16Yuck! Thomas gasped. I wish I'd have taken fewer trucks.
02:22Thomas puffed hard. He pushed the long line of trucks up the hill.
02:29He started to puff down the other side.
02:31Thomas tried to go slowly, but the trucks wanted to go faster.
02:36On, on, on, they cheered.
02:38Thomas went faster and faster.
02:42Cinders and ashes, Thomas cried.
02:47Salty was at the bottom of the hill.
02:49He was waiting for a signal.
02:52He didn't know Thomas was coming down the hill.
02:56Thomas was out of control.
02:59Thomas braked as hard as he could.
03:03But the fish trucks were too heavy.
03:11Oops, said Thomas.
03:14Sorry.
03:16Salty was covered in fish.
03:20Never mind me, Artie, said Salty.
03:23That's all right.
03:26Never mind me, Artie, said Salty.
03:28The smell reminds me of the sea.
03:33Thomas' driver telephoned for help.
03:36And soon Harvey was clearing the tracks.
03:42Thomas wondered what the Fat Controller would say.
03:46He found out soon enough.
03:48You have caused confusion and delay, said the Fat Controller sternly.
03:54You must learn to be more safe.
03:57Yes, sir. Sorry, sir, Thomas puffed sadly.
04:06This time Thomas shunted only five trucks together.
04:11He took a deep breath and chuffed away.
04:24Thomas puffed through the countryside.
04:26I will get to the docks on time, he cried.
04:30But the troublesome trucks were up to some of their old tricks.
04:33Hold back, they giggled.
04:36But this time there were only five trucks.
04:41Thomas biffed and bashed and bumped them.
04:45And the trucks weren't troublesome anymore.
04:55As soon as he delivered the first trucks,
04:58Thomas went back to collect the next five.
05:04His coupling smelled of kippers and his cabin smelled of cod.
05:09But he was working so hard, he forgot all about the smell.
05:14At last, he had just one more load to take.
05:26But it was nearly time for the ship to leave.
05:32The next morning, Thomas was on his way back to the dock.
05:36He had been working so hard, he forgot all about the smell.
05:41The next day, Thomas raced as fast as he could.
05:51His axles ached and his buffers were bashed.
05:54But he got to the docks just in time.
05:59Thomas was very happy to say goodbye to the fish.
06:05Then the Fat Controller came to see Thomas.
06:09I know you don't like the smell of fish,
06:12but you have worked very hard, the Fat Controller said.
06:15You really are a useful engine.
06:18Thomas was proud.
06:20He was proud of the smell of fish.
06:23You really are a useful engine.
06:26Thomas was proud.
06:28But he still had the smell of fish in his funnel and he couldn't wait to be clean.
06:33So he puffed off to the washdown.
06:41Arthur and Salty were already there.
06:45Getting clean is lovely, puffed Arthur.
06:49Best part of the day, said Salty.
06:52Especially when you smell of fish, said Thomas.
