00:00You
00:30Oh
01:00You
01:20Thomas was a tank engine who lived a big station
01:24He
01:28Had six small wheels a short stumpy funnel a short stumpy boiler and a short
01:36stumpy dough
01:38He was a fussy little
01:41Always pulling coaches about
01:44He pulled them to the station ready for the big engines to take out on long journeys
01:49And when trains came in and the people had got out
01:53He would pull the empty coaches away so that the big engines could go and rest
02:01He was a cheeky little engine, too
02:04He thought no engine worked as hard as he did
02:08So he used to play tricks on them
02:11He liked best of all to come quietly
02:14Beside a big engine dozing on a siding and make him jump
02:24Wake up lazy bones, he would whistle
02:28Why don't you work hard like me?
02:30Then he would love rudely and run away to find some more coaches
02:37One
02:43Day Gordon was resting on a siding. He was very tired the big Express. He always pulled had been late
02:53He was just going to sleep when Thomas came up in his cheeky way
02:59Wake up lazy bones. He whistled do some hard work for a change. You can't catch me
03:06And he ran off laughing
03:13Instead of going to sleep again Gordon thought how he could pay Thomas out
03:20One morning Thomas wouldn't wake up
03:23His driver and fireman couldn't make him start his fire went out and there was not enough steam
03:31It was nearly time for the Express the people were waiting
03:36But the coaches weren't ready
03:44At last Thomas started
03:56Oh dear, oh dear he yawned
04:00Come on said the coaches hurry up
04:04Thomas gave them a rude bumper and started for the station
04:08Don't stop dawdling. Don't stop dawdling. He grumbled
04:13Where have you been? Where have you been asked the coaches crossly?
04:19Thomas fussed into the station where Gordon was waiting
04:24Hurry up you said Gordon crossly
04:29Hurry yourself said cheeky Thomas. Yes
04:33Said Gordon I will and almost before the coaches had stopped moving
04:39Gordon came out of his siding and was coupled to the train
04:44Boop boop he whistled
04:46Get in quickly, please
04:48so the people got in quickly the signal went down the clock struck the hour the guard waved his green flag and
04:57Gordon was ready to start
04:59Thomas usually pushed behind the big trains to help them start, but he was always
05:05Uncoupled first so that when the train was running nicely he could stop and go back
05:13This time he was late and Gordon started so quickly
05:18that they forgot to uncouple Thomas
05:21The train went faster and faster
05:25Too fast for Thomas. He wanted to stop but he couldn't
05:28Peep peep stop stop he whistled
05:33Hurry hurry hurry laughed Gordon in front
05:37You can't get away. You can't get away laughed the coaches
05:41Poor Thomas was going faster than he had ever gone before
05:45He was out of breath and his wheels hurt him
05:47But he had to go on
05:49I shall never be the same again
05:51He thought sadly
05:53My wheels will be quite worn out
05:55At last they stopped at a station
05:57The train had stopped
05:59The train had stopped
06:01The train had stopped
06:03The train had stopped
06:05The train had stopped
06:07The train had stopped
06:09The train had stopped
06:12Everyone laughed to see Thomas puffing and panting
06:20They uncoupled him and then he ran homiciding out of the way
06:42Well little Thomas chuckled Gordon as he passed
06:45Now you know what hard work means don't you?
06:49Poor Thomas couldn't answer
06:52He had no breath
07:02He went home very slowly
07:04And was careful afterwards
07:06Never to be cheated
07:09And was careful afterwards
07:11Never to be cheeky to Gordon again
07:29Thomas often grumbled because he was not allowed to pull passenger trains
07:35The other engines laughed
07:38You're too impatient they said
07:40You'd be sure to leave something behind
07:43Rubbish! said Thomas crossly
07:46You just wait I'll show you
07:50One night he and Henry were alone
07:53Henry was ill
07:55The men worked hard
07:57But he didn't get better
07:59Now Henry usually pulled the first train in the morning
08:03And Thomas had to get his coaches ready
08:06If Henry is ill he thought
08:08Perhaps I shall pull his train
08:18Thomas ran to find the coaches
08:26Come along, come along he fussed
08:29There's plenty of time, there's plenty of time
08:32Grumbled the coaches
08:36He took them to the platform
08:38And wanted to run round in front at once
08:43But his driver wouldn't let him
08:45Don't be impatient Thomas he said
08:49So Thomas waited and waited
08:52The people got in
08:54The guard and station master walked up and down
08:58The porters banged the doors
09:00And still Henry didn't come
09:04Thomas got more and more excited every minute
09:10The fat director came out of his office to see what was the matter
09:14And the guard and the station master told him about Henry
09:19Find another engine he ordered
09:22There's only Thomas they said
09:24You'll have to do it then Thomas, be quick now
09:29So Thomas ran round to the front
09:32And back down on the coaches ready to start
09:36Don't be impatient said his driver
09:39Wait till everything is ready
09:41But Thomas was too excited to listen to a word he said
09:47What happened then no one knows
09:50Perhaps they forgot to couple Thomas to the train
09:53Perhaps Thomas was too excited to listen to a word he said
09:59Perhaps Thomas was too impatient to wait until they were ready
10:02Or perhaps his driver pulled the lever by mistake
10:07Anyhow Thomas started
10:11People shouted and waved at him but he didn't stop
10:15They're waving because I'm such a splendid engine
10:18He thought importantly
10:29Henry says it's hard to pull trains but I think it's easy
10:42Hurry! Hurry! Hurry!
10:48He came to a signal at danger
10:51Bother! he thought
10:53I must stop and I was going so nicely too
10:57What a nuisance signals are
10:59And he blew an angry beep beep on his whistle
11:05One of the signalmen ran up
11:07Hello Thomas he said
11:09What are you doing here?
11:11I'm pulling a train said Thomas proudly
11:14Can't you see?
11:16Where are your coaches then?
11:19Thomas looked back
11:21Why bless me he said if we haven't left them behind
11:26Yes said the signalman
11:28You'd better go back quickly and fetch them
11:31Poor Thomas was so sad he nearly cried
11:37Cheer up said his driver
11:39Let's go back quickly and try again
11:43At the station all the passengers were talking at once
11:46They were telling the fat director, the station master and the guard
11:51What a bad railway it was
11:55But when Thomas came back
11:57And they saw how sad he was
11:59They couldn't be cross
12:01So they coupled him to the train
12:04And this time he really pulled it
12:16But for a long time afterwards
12:18The other engines laughed at Thomas and said
12:22There's Thomas who wanted to pull the train
12:24But forgot about the coaches
12:35Thomas used to grumble in the shed at night
12:38I'm tired of pushing coaches
12:41I want to see the world
12:43The others didn't take much notice
12:46For Thomas was a little engine with a long tongue
12:51But one night Edward came to the shed
12:54He was a kind little engine
12:56And felt sorry for Thomas
12:59I've got some trucks to take home tomorrow
13:01He told him
13:02If you take them instead
13:04I'll push coaches in the yard
13:06Thank you said Thomas
13:09That will be nice
13:12So they asked their drivers next morning
13:15And when they said yes
13:18Thomas ran happily to find the trucks
13:22Now trucks are silly and noisy
13:24They talk a lot
13:26And don't attend to what they are doing
13:28They don't listen to their engine
13:31And when he stops
13:32They bump into each other screaming
13:34Oh, oh, oh, oh
13:36Whatever is happening
13:38Edward knew all about trucks
13:41He warned Thomas to be careful
13:43But Thomas was too excited to listen
13:46The shunter fastened the coupling
13:48And when the signal dropped
13:50Thomas was ready
13:52The guard blew his whistle
13:54Peep, peep
13:56Answered Thomas
13:57And started off
13:59But the trucks weren't ready
14:01Oh, oh, oh, oh
14:03They screamed as their couplings tightened
14:05Wait Thomas, wait
14:07But Thomas wouldn't wait
14:09Come on, come on
14:11He puffed and the trucks brumbled
14:13Slowly out of the siding
14:15Onto the main line
14:32Thomas was happy
14:34Come along, come along
14:36He puffed
14:46Thomas whistled
14:48Peep, peep
14:50And they rushed through the tunnel
14:52In which Henry had been shut up
15:16They clattered through stations
15:19And rumbled over bridges
15:45Then they came to the top of the hill
15:57Where Gordon had stopped
15:59Steady now, steady
16:01Warned the driver
16:03And he shut off steam
16:05And began to put on the brakes
16:07We're stopping, we're stopping
16:09Called Thomas
16:11No, no, no, no
16:13The trucks bumped into each other
16:15Go on, go on
16:17And before his driver could stop them
16:19They had pushed Thomas down the hill
16:21And were rattling and laughing behind him
16:25Poor Thomas tried hard to stop them
16:27From making them go too fast
16:39Oi, slow down
16:42Stop pushing, stop pushing
16:44He hissed
16:46But the trucks would not stop
16:48Go on, go on
16:50They giggled in their silly way
16:52Then he saw in front a place
16:54Where they had to stop
16:59They rattled through the station
17:01And luckily the line was clear
17:03As they swivelled into the goodshaft
17:05Wooooooaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah
17:09Growled Thomas as his brakes held fast
17:12And he skidded along the rails
17:14I must stop
17:16And he shut them down as tight as possible
17:23When he opened them
17:25He saw he had stopped just in front of the buffers
17:28And there watching him was
17:30The Fat Director
17:33What are you doing here, Thomas?" he asked sternly.
17:37I've brought Edward's trucks, Thomas answered.
17:40Why did you come so fast?
17:42I didn't mean to. I was pushed, said Thomas sadly.
17:47Haven't you pulled trucks before?
17:50No.
17:51Then you've a lot to learn about trucks, little Thomas.
17:54They are silly things and must be kept in their place.
17:58After pushing them about here for a few weeks,
18:00you'll know almost as much about them as Edward.
18:04Then you'll be a really useful engine.
18:30Every day the Fat Director came to the station to catch his train.
18:59He always said,
19:00Hello,
19:01to Thomas.
19:04There were lots of trucks in the yard.
19:07Different ones came in every day,
19:10and Thomas had to push and pull them into their right places.
19:15He worked hard.
19:17He knew now that he wasn't so clever as he had thought.
19:21Besides, the Fat Director had been kind to him,
19:25and he wanted to learn all about trucks
19:28so as to be a really useful engine.
19:33But on a siding by themselves were some trucks
19:36that Thomas was told he mustn't touch.
19:40There was a small coach, some flat trucks,
19:44and two queer things his driver called cranes.
19:48That's the breakdown train, he said.
19:51When there's an accident,
19:52the workmen get into the coach
19:54and the engine takes them quickly to help the hurt people
19:58and to clear and mend the line.
20:01The cranes are for lifting heavy things
20:04like engines and coaches and trucks.
20:08One day, Thomas was in the yard
20:11when he heard an engine whistling,
20:13Help! Help!
20:19and a goods train came rushing through much too fast.
20:29I'd like to teach those trucks a lesson,
20:32said Thomas the Tank Engine.
20:35The engine, a new one called James, was frightened.
20:39His brake blocks were on fire,
20:41and smoke and sparks streamed out on each side.
20:46They're pushing me! They're pushing me! he panted.
20:50Om! Om! Om! Om! laughed the trucks, and still whistling,
20:55Help! Help!
21:12James is off the line.
21:14The breakdown train! Quickly!
21:27So Thomas was coupled on,
21:29the workmen jumped into their coach, and off they went.
21:35Thomas worked his hardest.
21:37Hurry! Hurry! Hurry! he puffed,
21:39and this time he wasn't pretending to be like Gordon.
21:42He really meant it.
21:54They found James and the trucks at a bank.
21:57The brake van and the last few trucks were on the rails,
22:00but the front ones were piled in a heap.
22:03James was in a field with a cow looking at him,
22:06and his driver and fireman were feeling him all over to see if he was hurt.
22:11Never mind, James, they said.
22:14It wasn't your fault, it was those wooden brake blocks.
22:17They were on the rails.
22:19They were on the rails.
22:21They were on the rails.
22:24It wasn't your fault. It was those wooden brakes they gave you.
22:27We always said they were no good.
22:32Thomas pushed the breakdown train alongside.
22:36Then he pulled the unhurt trucks out of the way.
22:40Oh dear! Oh dear! they groaned.
22:45Serves you right! Serves you right! puffed Thomas crossly.
22:53Then, with two cranes, they put James back on the rails.
23:14He tried to move, but he couldn't, so Thomas helped him back to the shed.
23:44The fat director was waiting anxiously for them.
24:02Well, Thomas, he said kindly, I've heard all about it and I'm very pleased with you. You're a really useful engine.
24:12James shall have some proper breaks and a new coat of paint and you shall have a branch line all to yourself.
24:22Oh, sir, said Thomas happily.
24:26This is the greatest day of my life!
24:52Can you see?
25:08Oh, man, the sequence of a life form raised in the sand, the soaking of the first of the land.
25:38Oh, man, the sequence of a life form raised in the sand, the soaking of the first of the land.
