Thomas Saves the Day

"Thomas Saves the Day" is the fourth episode of the first season.

Plot
Thomas is still busy shunting trucks and coaches around the yard. He sees some unusual trucks. His driver explains that this is the 'Breakdown Train' which is used to lift engines, coaches and trucks when they derail. Then he sees a new engine called James, who is being pushed along the line by trucks out of control with his brakes on fire. He eventually crashes into a field. Thomas rushes to the rescue. He helps James back on to the rails and clears away the broken trucks. The Fat Controller decides that Thomas is a responsible engine, and rewards him with his own branch line.
