Transcript

 * George Carlin: One day, Percy arrived in a quarry to collect some stone for his freight cars. Snow and frost lay everywhere. There was not a sound to be heard. Percy ventured further. He found Mavis the new diesel engine resting in the shelter of some rocks.
 * Percy: Cheer up, Mavis.
 * George Carlin: He whistled. Mavis was still remembering the trouble she had with cars.
 * Mavis: Manager says I don't listen for his advice. He says I'd no business chortling down Toby's line. Toby's a fusspot.
 * Percy: Toby has forgotten all about freight cars than you'll ever known.
 * George Carlin: Replied Percy.
 * Percy: You must put the cars where he wants them, then you'll be a really useful engine. Now if you excuse me, I have to take these stones to the harbour.
 * George Carlin: Mavis likes Percy but she still wouldn't to his advice.
 * Mavis: Why shouldn't I go on Toby's line.
 * George Carlin: The siding arrangements are awkward. The put the cars where Toby wanted them, Mavis had to make several journeys. She started making a plan.
 * Mavis: If we used the key stood on Toby's line.
 * George Carlin: She said to her driver.
 * Mavis: We would save all was bother.
 * George Carlin: Her driver suspecting nothing allow them to go as far as the level crossing. A few days later, the weather changed. As the soon melted, the quarry grew busy again. Some trains were so long that before leaving the cars for Toby, Mavis had to go beyond the level crossing with them. Now for her plan. She would go further down the line without it seeming her fault.
 * Mavis: Can you keep a secret?
 * George Carlin: She asked the freight cars.
 * Cars: Yes, yes, yes!
 * George Carlin: They chattered.
 * Mavis: Will you bump me at the level crossing and tell no one I ask you?
 * George Carlin: The cars promised. But while Mavis was away, Toby arrived. He decided to shunt the cars himself. The cars decided to bump him anyway. They reached the level crossing and Toby's brakes came on. This was the signal for the freight cars.
 * Cars: On, on, on!
 * George Carlin: They yelled. Toby was away. With the cars screaming and yelling behind him. No one realize that melted snow had turned a stream ahead into a torrent and the bridge above it was about to collapse. The rails were now like a tightrope against the thundering water.
 * Toby: Stop, stop!
 * George Carlin: Cried Toby. His driver thought for control. They came nearer and nearer by the bridge. It was all of nothing now. The driver braked hard.
 * (Toby reaches the broken bridge)
 * George Carlin: Toby stopped still on the rails but with his wheels shredding the tightrope over the abyss. Mavis was horrified and quickly came to the rescue. Workmen anchored Toby with ropes while she pulled the freight cars away. Then, she helped Toby to safety.
 * (Mavis rescuing Toby)
 * Mavis: I'm sorry about the cars.
 * George Carlin: Said Mavis.
 * Mavis: I can't think how you manage to stop them in time.
 * Toby: Oh well.
 * George Carlin: Said Toby.
 * Toby: My driver told me about circus people who walked tightropes, but I just didn't fancy doing it myself.
 * George Carlin: Later, Sir Topham Hatt arrived.
 * Sir Topham Hatt: A very smart piece of work.
 * George Carlin: He said.
 * Sir Topham Hatt: Mavis, you did well too I hear.
 * Mavis: It was my fault about those cars, sir.
 * George Carlin: She faulted.
 * Mavis: But if I could...
 * Sir Topham Hatt: Could what?
 * Mavis: Come down the line sometimes, Sir? Toby says he'll show me what to do.
 * Sir Topham Hatt: Certainly.
 * George Carlin: Replied Sir Topham Hatt.
 * Sir Topham Hatt: If your manager agrees.
 * George Carlin: And so it was arranged. Now Mavis is as happy as can be, and Sir Topham Hatt thinks she's really useful indeed.
