 * Thomas: I'll show them! Driver says I can manage without him. I'll just go out and then I'll stop and "wheesh!" That'll make them jump.
 * George Carlin: Thomas thought he was being clever and really he was only moving because a careless cleaner had medal with his controls. He soon found his mistake. He tried to "wheesh!", but he couldn't. He tried to stop, but he couldn't. He just kept rolling along. He didn't dare what it look what's coming next. There was the stationmaster's house! The stationmaster was about to have breakfast.

 * George Carlin: Donald and Douglas are twins and had arrived from Scotland to help Sir Topham Hatt, but only one engine had been expected. The twins meant well, but did cause confusion. Sir Topham Hatt had given them numbers, Donald 9 and Douglas 10, but he was still planning to send one engine home. There was a break van in the yard that had taken a dislike to Douglas. Things always went wrong when he had to take it out. His trains were late and he was blamed. Douglas began to worry. Donald, his twin, was angry.
 * Donald: You're a muckle nuisance!
 * George Carlin: Said Donald.
 * Donald: It's to leave you behind I'd be wanting.
 * Break Van: You can't!
 * George Carlin: Said the break van.
 * Break Van: I'm essential!
 * Donald: Och are you?
 * George Carlin: Donald burst out.

 * Break Van: Ow, oh!
 * George Carlin: Cried the van.
 * Donald: There's more coming should you misbehave.
 * George Carlin: The van behave better after that. Until one day, Donald had an accident. The rails were slippery. He couldn't stop in time.
 * (Donald crashes into the signal box)
 * George Carlin: Donald wasn't hurt, but Sir Topham Hatt was most annoyed.
 * Sir Topham Hatt: I am disappointed, Donald. I didn't expect such, er, clumsiness from you. I had decided to send Douglas back and keep you.
 * Donald: I'm sorry, sir.
 * George Carlin: Said Donald.
 * Sir Topham Hatt: I should think so, too. You have upset my arrangements. Now James will have to help you with the goods work, while you have your tender mended. James won't like that.
 * George Carlin: Sir Topham Hatt was right. James grumbled dreadfully about extra work.
 * Douglas: Anyone would think.
 * George Carlin: Said Douglas.
 * Douglas: That Donald had had his accident on purpose. I heard tell about an engine and some tar wagons.
 * James: Shut up!
 * George Carlin: Said James.
 * James: It's not funny.
 * George Carlin: He didn't like to be remind about his own accident.
 * Donald: Well, well, well! Surely, James, it wasn't you. You didn't say.
 * George Carlin: James didn't say. He slouched sulkily away.
 * Break Van: He's cross!
 * George Carlin: Sniggered the spiteful break van.
 * Break Van: We'll try to make him crosser still!
 * Freight Cars: Hold back!
 * George Carlin: Giggled the freight cars to each other. James did his best, but he was exhausted when they reached Edward's station. Luckily, Douglas was there.
 * James: Help me up the hill, please!
 * George Carlin: Panted James.
 * James: These freight cars are playing tricks.
 * Douglas: We'll show them.
 * George Carlin: Said Douglas. Slowly but surely, the snorting engines forced the freight cars up the hill. But James was losing steam.
 * James: I can't do it, I can't do it!
 * Douglas: Leave it to me!
 * George Carlin: Shouted Douglas. The conductor was anxious.
 * Conductor: Go steady! The van's breaking!
 * (Douglas smashes the break van to bits)
 * George Carlin: The van was in pieces. No one had been hurt, and soon Edward came to clear the mess. Sir Topham Hatt was on board.
 * Sir Topham Hatt: I might have known it would be Douglas.
 * George Carlin: He said.
 * Edward: Douglas was grand, sir.
 * George Carlin: Said Edward.
 * Edward: James had no steam left, but Douglas worked hard enough for three. I heard him from my yard.
 * Sir Topham Hatt: Two would have been enough.
 * George Carlin: Said Sir Topham Hatt.
 * Sir Topham Hatt: I want to be fair, Douglas, but...I don't know. I really don't know.
 * George Carlin: Sir Topham Hatt was making up his mind about which engine to send away, but that's another story.
