00:00ON SCHEDULED STOPS
00:07I'm definitely going to win the race today, Bertie!
00:24We'll see about that!
00:26On your marks, get set, go!
00:32Not yet, Thomas!
00:35Thomas, you must wait for the whistle!
00:45Thomas!
00:48Thomas and Bertie like to race each other to the end of the line.
00:53They both know that the first to the level crossing usually wins.
00:58Thomas, slow down!
01:12Bye-bye, Bertie!
01:17Oh, no! What's happening?
01:32Don't worry, Bertie. We'll continue the race as soon as you're ready to go again.
01:38Unless you're just pretending to have a problem because I was winning.
01:44Excuse me! I was clearly ahead and I would have crossed first if there wasn't something wrong with my engine.
01:51You've blown a gasket, Bertie.
01:53Oh, but what about my passengers?
01:57Maybe I could help. Some of your stops are close to my stations.
02:02Thank you, Thomas!
02:15What?
02:17Is anything wrong, sir?
02:20McColl's Farm isn't very close to where I live. Bertie has another stop between the two stations.
02:27Well, if Bertie can stop between stations, then so can I!
02:34Come on, everyone!
02:37Is that a good idea, Thomas?
02:39You're only supposed to stop at actual stations.
02:42It's fine. I'm just being really useful. What could possibly go wrong?
02:49So, Thomas made his first unscheduled stop halfway to the next station.
02:58This can only lead to trouble.
03:00I quite agree, Annie.
03:04And it seemed they were right.
03:08Thomas! I don't suppose you could drop us before Trotter's Farm near the windmill, could you?
03:14Well, yes. All right. Why not?
03:18But we can't just stop anywhere, Thomas.
03:21We do have a schedule to follow.
03:23Oh, it's only one more unscheduled stop.
03:27But Thomas made a lot more unscheduled stops for Bertie's passengers.
03:35And he felt that he was being really useful.
03:40Ha-ha-ha!
03:47You're all very welcome.
03:49But his usual passengers were not very happy.
03:53This is ridiculous!
03:54I shall be late to the office.
03:56We told you so.
03:57You've made your usual passengers late.
04:00Oh. Well, I won't do it on the way back, then.
04:05But the word had spread and people were waiting at the unscheduled stops.
04:10Thomas, no!
04:12You said you wouldn't.
04:13But I can't just leave him there.
04:17By the time Thomas got back to Knapford, he was very, very late indeed.
04:23Sorry, sir, but Bertie broke down and taking all his passengers delayed me a little.
04:29You can say that again.
04:31I know all about Bertie breaking down, Thomas,
04:34and unfortunately he's not coming back any time soon.
04:38You should expect extra passengers again tomorrow.
04:41And I expect you to be on time.
04:46The next day, Thomas decided he wouldn't make any unscheduled stops at all.
04:51But he didn't want to leave anyone stranded,
04:54so he did stop whenever he saw a passenger waiting.
04:58And so it went on.
05:00All day long.
05:05Late again, Thomas.
05:07Taking Bertie's passengers shouldn't make that much difference.
05:10You're still stopping at the same stations.
05:13Yes, sir, I am, but there are a lot more of them,
05:17so it takes longer when they get on and off.
05:20Oh! Well, really?
05:23Well, I'd better be off, sir.
05:26The Fat Controller was becoming suspicious.
05:56Oh! My heart!
06:27Shoo! Shoo!
06:33Thomas was on his way back to Knapford, but he was very late again.
06:38You're going too fast, Thomas!
06:41My chassis is shuddering!
06:44Ah!
06:55Thomas the Tank Engine.
06:57Sir! What... What are you doing here?
07:00I know all about your unscheduled stops, Thomas.
07:03I've been following you.
07:05Oh, I'm really sorry, sir.
07:08I was trying to help Bertie's passengers, but it got a bit out of control.
07:13A bit? Ha! I'll say.
07:16Then you'll be pleased to know
07:18I've made other arrangements to help Bertie's passengers.
07:21Bertie? He's back!
07:23No, Thomas, he isn't.
07:26Ah! Spongy!
07:28But I thought you'd been turned into a hen house.
07:32Only for a while.
07:34Then I was a mobile vegetable stand,
07:37and now I'm back in service.
07:41And if you don't mind my saying so,
07:43we'd all be better off
07:45if everyone simply used roads instead of railways.
07:50Now, now, Bulgy, don't go getting all anti-rail again,
07:54or I might find some chickens who need a place to live.
07:58Yes, sir. Sorry, sir.
08:02And now that you don't have to worry about Bertie's passengers,
08:07I'll expect you to be bang on time for the rest of the day, Thomas.
08:11Yes, sir. Of course, sir.
08:13Cheerio.
08:18I don't suppose you fancy a race back to Knapford?
08:22I certainly do not.
08:25Down with railways!
08:28Down with railways?
08:31That sounded like a challenge to me.
08:34No, Thomas! He said he didn't want to race!
