Plot
Once upon a time three little engines lived in their own little shed on their own little railway. Duke was brown; Falcon, blue and Stuart, green. Duke was the oldest and had been the first engine on the line and named after the Duke of Sodor and kept the others in order. When ever the others did anything they shouldn't he would say, "That would never suit his Grace".

Duke is wise, but Falcon and Stuart are young and cheeky and often make fun of "Granpuff", as Duke is affectionately known, until Duke tells them the story of a reckless engine named Smudger, who was rough and often derailed and was punished by being turned into a pumping engine. The three have many adventures together, until their line closes. Falcon and Stuart are purchased and in due course wind up on the Skarloey Railway, but Duke wasn't wanted and was sheltered in the shed. Duke, unaware that the current Duke does not know of his existence and that the old Duke died in the war, goes to sleep.
