Narrator: Casey Jr. the Circus Engine was grumbling to the other engines.

Casey Jr.: I spent my time pulling coaches about, ready for you to take out on journeys

Narrator: the other engines laughed.

Casey Jr.: why can't I pull passenger trains too

Johnny, Alfred, Montana and Harry: you’re to inpatient.

Narrator: they said

Johnny, Alfred, Montana and Harry: you’ve be sure to leave something behind.

Casey Jr.: rubbish

Narrator: said Casey Jr.

Casey Jr.: I'll show you

Narrator: one night he and Alfred were alone, Alfred was ill, the ponies worked hard, but he didn't get better.

Narrator: he felt just as bad the next morning, Alfred usually pulled the first train and Casey Jr. had to get his coaches ready.

Casey Jr.: if Alfred was ill.

Narrator: he thought.

Casey Jr.: perhaps I shall pull his train.

CASEY JR'S WHISTLE

Narrator: Casey Jr. ran to find the coaches.

Casey Jr.: come along, come along.

Narrator: he fussed.

Ponies: there's plenty of time, there's plenty of time.

Narrator: they grumbled, Casey Jr. toke them to the platform and wanted to run around in front at once, but his driver wouldn't let him.

Casey Jr's Driver: don't be inpatient Casey Jr.

Narrator: Casey Jr. waited and waited, the Ponies got in, the conductor and Shining Armor walked up and down, the porter banged the doors and still Alfred didn't come, Casey Jr. got more and more excited, Hoity Toity came to see what was the matter, and the conductor and Shining Armor told him about Alfred.

Hoity Toity: find another engine.

Narrator: he ordered.

The 3 Ponies: there's only Casey Jr.

Narrator: they said.

Hoity Toity: you'll have to do it then Casey Jr., be quick now.

Narrator: so Casey Jr. ran round to the front and backed down on the coaches ready to start.

Casey Jr's Driver: let's not be inpatient.

Narrator: said his driver.

Casey Jr's Driver: we'll wait till everyting is ready

Narrator: but Casey Jr. was to exited to listen, what happened then no one knows, perhaps they forgot to couple Casey Jr. to the train or perhaps the driver pulled the leaver by mistake, anyhow Casey Jr. stared without his coaches, as he passed the first signal Tower ponies waved and shouted, but he didn't stop.

Casey Jr.: they're waving because I’m such a splendid engine.

Narrator: he thought importantly.

Casey Jr.: Alfred says it's hard to pull trains but I think it's easy, hurry, hurry, hurry.

Narrator: he puffed pretending to be like Montana

Casey Jr.: people have never seen me pulling a train before it's nice of them to wave.

Narrator: and he whistled.

Casey Jr.: Peep Peep, thank you.

Narrator: then he had came to a signal at danger.

Casey Jr.: Bother.

Narrator: he thought.

Casey Jr.: I must stop, and I was going so nicely to, what a new-cent signals are.

Narrator: he blew an angry beep beep, on his whistle, the signalpony ran up,

Signalpony: hello Casey Jr.

Narrator: he said.

Signalpony: what are you doing here.

Casey Jr.: I'm pulling a train.

Narrator: said Casey Jr.

Casey Jr.: can't you see.

Signalpony: where are your coaches then.

Narrator: Casey Jr. looked back.

Casey Jr. why bless me.

Narrator: he said.

Casey Jr.: if we haven't left them behind.

Signalpony: yes

Narrator: said the signalpony.

Signalpony: you better go back quickly and fetch them.

Narrator: poor Casey Jr. was so sad he nearly cried.

Casey Jr's Driver: cheer up.

Narrator: said his driver.

Casey Jr's Driver: let's go back quickly and try again.

Narrator: at the station, passengers were talking at once, they were telling Hoity Toity what a bad railway it was, but when Casey Jr. came back, they saw how sad he was Andy couldn't be cross, he was coupled to the train and this time he really pulled it, afterwards the other engines laughed at Casey Jr. and said.

Harry: look there's Casey Jr. who wanted to pull a train.

Alfred: but forgot about the coaches

Narrator: but Casey Jr. had already learned, not to make the same mistake again
