Ringo Starr US version

 * Ringo Starr: Henry, James and Gordon were miserable. They had been shut up for several days for being naughty, and long to be let out again. At last, Sir Topham Hatt arrived.
 * Sir Topham Hatt: I hope you are sorry.
 * Ringo Starr: He said.
 * Sir Topham Hatt: And that you understand that every job on the railway is important. We have a new tank engine called Percy who helps pull coaches and Thomas and Edward had worked the main line nicely, but I will let you now if you promise to work hard.
 * Gordon: Yes sir.
 * Ringo Starr: Said the three engines.
 * James: We will.
 * Sir Topham Hatt: That's right, but please remember that this no shunting nonsense must stop.
 * Ringo Starr: He then told Percy, Edward and Thomas that they can go and play on a branch line for a few days, and they ran off happily to find Annie and Clarabel at the junction. The two coaches were very pleased to see Thomas again. Edward and Percy played with the freight cars.
 * Cars: Stop, stop, stop!
 * Ringo Starr: Screamed the cars as they pushed them to their proper sidings. But the two engines laughed and went on shunting till the cars were tightly arranged. Next, Edward took some empty cars from the quarry. Percy was left alone. He didn't mind that a bit. He like watching trains and being cheeky to the other engines.
 * Percy: Hurry, hurry, hurry!
 * Ringo Starr: He would call, and they got very cross. After a great deal of shunting, Percy was waiting for the signalman to set the switch so that he can go back to the yard. He was eager to work, but was being rather careless and not paying attention. Edward had warned Percy.
 * Edward: Be careful on the main line. Whistle to the signalman you are there.
 * Ringo Starr: But Percy didn't remember to whistle, and so the busy signalman forgot him. Percy waited and waited. The switch were still against him so he couldn't move. Then, he looked along the main line.
 * Percy: Peep, peep!
 * Ringo Starr: He whistled in horror, for rushing straight towards him was Gordon with the express.
 * Gordon: Oh!
 * Ringo Starr: Groaned Gordon.
 * Gordon: Get out of my way!
 * (Gordon approaches Percy, who then shuts his eyes and the big engine comes to a frightening halt)
 * Ringo Starr: Percy opened his eyes. Gordon had stopped with Percy's buffers a few inches from his own. But Percy had began to move.
 * Percy: I won't stay here, I'll run away!
 * Ringo Starr: He puffed. He ran straight through Edward's station, and was so frightened that he ran right up Gordon's hill without stopping. After that, he was tired, but he couldn't stop. He had no driver to shut off steam and applied his brakes.
 * Percy: I want to stop! I want to stop!
 * Ringo Starr: He puffed. The man in the signalbox saw Percy was in trouble, so he kindly set the switch. Percy puffed wearily onto a nice empty siding, ending in a big bank of earth. He was too tired now to care where he went.
 * Percy: I want to stop, I want to stop! I have stopped!
 * Ringo Starr: He puffed thankfully.
 * Workmen: Never mind, Percy.
 * Ringo Starr: Said the workmen as they dug him out.
 * Workmen: You shall have some drink and some coal and then you feel better.
 * Ringo Starr: Presently, Gordon arrived.
 * Gordon: Well done, Percy. You started so quickly that you stopped the nasty accident.
 * Percy: I'm sorry I was cheeky.
 * Ringo Starr: Said Percy.
 * Percy: You were clever to stop.
 * Ringo Starr: Then Gordon helped pull Percy out from the bank. The two engines are now good friends, but Percy was always most careful that he goes out on the main line.
