Transcript
Narrator: Stepney has worked on his branch line for many years, but every now and again he misses his old friends, and wishes to hear from them sometime soon.

Stepney: Oh those were the good old days. When I worked with Bluebell, Primrose, Adams, Cromford and Captain Baxter on the Bluebell Railway.

Narrator: One day Stepney was resting in his shed when his driver came up.

Stepney's Driver: Big news Stepney. Your old friends from the Bluebell Railway have been purchased by the North Western Railway to help keep your line running smoothly.

Stepney: Well then, I hope they're in as excellent condition as they were when I last saw them.

Narrator: And that of course meant Stepney was looking forward to seeing his old friends again even more. Stepney worked well through the next few days, mostly with his coaches, Wilma and Betty. Then one day, he was helping Rusty with some goods for the Blue Mountain Quarry.

Rusty: So Stepney, you remember the time I saved you from scrap don't you?

Stepney: I certainly do. And I even made Caroline set chase when I accidentally caught a cricket ball in one of my trucks.

Rusty: That's right.

Stepney: Oh, and didn't I tell you, all my old friends from the Bluebell Railway are coming to stay on Sodor.

Rusty: Really? Well it will be nice to see them after all this time.

Stepney: Well yes, that's what I've been telling myself for nearly a week now.

Rusty: Well Stepney, thanks for the help you've given me. I guess I'm able to take it from here. Goodbye.

Stepney: Goodbye Rusty.

Narrator: That night, Stepney could hardly sleep for excitement over the arrival of all his friends from their old railway, and how his friends have managed without him since he moved to Sodor. The next day, Stepney had whistles he thought he knew.

Stepney: Well, at long last. It's the engines who have come all the way from my old railway.

Adams: Hello, Stepney.

Cromford: Lovely to see you again.

Bluebell: We've missed you all this time.

Primrose: And we're glad to have finally reunited.

Stepney: Welcome to Sodor, old friends!

Captain Baxter: Thanks chum. We had to move here, because our old controller had to move onto a new job.

Cromford: So there was no choice but for us to come to this island.

Stepney: Well I'm glad to have finally reunited with all my old friends. Welcome to Sodor all of you.

Bluebell Engines: Thank you Stepney.

Narrator: And so the six engines were finally glad to be together once again, for many years to come.
