Spike Gets Tricked
Narrator: "Spike is a dragon who lives in a library in Ponyville. He's a cheeky little dragon, with two small feet, a short, stumpy tail, two short arms, and some green scales.

He's a fussy little dragon, too. Always bringing buffaloes about, ready for the bigger animals to take on long journeys.

And when animals come in, he brings the buffaloes back home so that the animals can go and rest.

Spike thinks no animal works as hard as he does. He loves playing tricks on them, including Big Macintosh, the biggest and proudest horse of all. Spike likes to tease Big Mac with his whistle."

Spike: "Wake up, lazy bones! Why don't you work hard, like me?"

Narrator: "One day, after taking the buffaloes on a journey, Big Mac arrived back at the siding, very tired. He was just going to sleep when Spike came up in his cheeky way.

Spike: "Wake up, lazy bones, do some hard work for a change!" You can't catch me!"

Narrator: "And off he ran, laughing.

Instead of going to sleep again, Big Mac thought how he could get back at Spike.

One morning, Spike wouldn't wake up. His driver and fireman couldn't make him start. His stamina was low and there was not enough strength. It was nearly time for the express. People were waiting, but the buffaloes weren't ready.

At last, Spike started."

Spike: "Oh, dear, oh, dear!"

Narrator: "He yawned.

He fussed into the station, where Big Mac was waiting."

Big Macintosh: "Hurry up, you."

Narrator: "Said Big Macintosh."

Spike: "Hurry yourself!"

Narrator: "Replied Spike.

Big Mac, the proud horse, began making his plan to teach Spike a lesson for teasing him. Almost before the buffaloes stopped moving, Big Mac reversed quickly and held the first one's hoof."

Big Macintosh: "Get in quickly, please."

Narrator: "He whistled.

Spike usually pushed behind the buffaloes to help them start, but they always let go of him first. This time, Big Mac started so quickly, they forgot to let go of Spike. Big Mac's chance had come."

Big Macintosh: "Come on, come on,"

Narrator: "Puffed Big Mac to the buffaloes.

The line went faster and faster. Too fast for Spike. He wanted to stop, but he couldn't!"

Spike: "Peep, peep! Stop, stop!"

Big Macintosh: "Hurry, hurry, hurry!"

Narrator: "Laughed Big Mac."

Buffaloes: "You can't get away, you can't get away!"

Narrator: "Laughed the buffaloes.

Poor Spike was going faster than he had ever gone before. He was out of breath, and his feet hurt him, but he had to go on."

Spike: "I shall never be the same again."

Narrator: "He thought sadly."

Spike: "My feet will be quite worn out."

Narrator: "At last, they stopped at a station.

Spike let go, and he felt very silly and exhausted.

Next, he sat on a turntable, thinking of everyone laughing at him.

And then he ran onto a path, out of the way."

Big Macintosh: "Well, little Spike,"

Narrator: "Chuckled Big Macintosh."

Big Macintosh: "Now you know what hard work means, don't you?"

Narrator: "Poor Spike couldn't answer. He had no breath. He just puffed slowly away to rest, and had a long, long drink."

Spike: "Maybe I don't have to tease Big Mac to feel important."

Narrator: "Spike huffed to himself, and he puffed slowly home."

Shining Armor Helps Out
Narrator: "One day, Shining Armor was in the library where he lived with the other animals. They were all bigger than Shining Armor and boasted about it."

Big Macintosh: "The driver won't choose you again."

Narrator: "Said Big Macintosh."

Big Macintosh: "He wants strong animals like us."

Narrator: "But the driver and fireman felt sorry for Shining Armor."

Driver and Fireman: "Would you like to come out today?"

Shining Armor: "Oh, yes, please!"

Narrator: "Said Shining Armor. So he had his breakfast, gained lots of stamina, and Shining Armor puffed away.

The other animals were very cross at being left behind.

Shining Armor worked hard all day. The buffaloes thought he was very kind and the driver was very pleased."

Shining Armor: "I'm going out again tomorrow."

Narrator: "Shining Armor told the other animals that night."

Shining Armor: "What do you think about that?"

Narrator: "But he didn't hear what they thought, for he was so tired and happy, that he fell asleep at once.

Next morning, Shining Armor woke up to find nothing had changed. Big Mac was still boasting."

Big Macintosh: "You watch me, little Shining Armor, as I rush through with the express. That will be a splendid sight for you.

Good-bye, little Shining Armor. Look out for me this afternoon."

Narrator: "Shining Armor went off to do some arranging.

He liked arranging. It was fun playing with changelings. He would come up quietly and give them a push. Then he would stop and the changelings would go bump into each other."

Changelings: "Oh!"

Narrator: "They cried."

Changelings: "Whatever is happening?"

Narrator: "Shining Armor played until there were no more changelings. Then he stopped to rest.

Presently, he heard some grumbling.

Big Mac was very cross. Instead of nice, shining buffaloes, he was taking some changelings."

Big Macintosh: "Changelings, Changelings, Changelings!"

Narrator: "He grumbled."

Big Macintosh: "The shame of it, the shame of it, oh, the shame of it!"

Narrator: "Shining Armor laughed, and went to find some more changelings.

Then there was trouble."

Porter: "Big Mac can't get up the hill."

Narrator: "The porter called to Shining Armor's driver."

Porter: "Will you take Shining Armor and push him, please?"

Narrator: "They found Big Mac halfway up, and very cross. His driver and fireman were talking to him severely."

Big Macintosh's Driver and Fireman: "You're not trying!"

Big Macintosh: "I can't do it!"

Narrator: "Said Big Mac."

Big Macintosh: "The noisy changelings hold a horse back so."

Narrator: "Shining Armor's driver came up."

Shining Armor's Driver: "We've come to push."

Big Macintosh: "No use at all!"

Narrator: "Said Big Mac."

Shining Armor's Driver: "You wait and see."

Narrator: "Replied Shining Armor's driver.

They brought the changelings back to the bottom of the hill."

Shining Armor: "I'm ready!"

Narrator: "Said Shining Armor."

Big Macintosh: "No good."

Narrator: "Grumbled Big Macintosh. They pulled and pushed as hard as they could.

Big Macintosh: "I can't do it! I can't do it! I can't do it!"

Narrator: "Puffed Big Mac."

Shining Armor: "I will do it, I will do it, I will do it!"

Narrator: "Puffed Shining Armor. Shining Armor pushed and puffed, and puffed and pushed as hard as ever he could. And almost before he realized it, Big Mac found himself at the top of the hill."

Big Macintosh: "I've done it, I've done it, I've done it!"

Narrator: "He said proudly. He forgot all about kind Shining Armor and didn't say 'Thank you'.

Shining Armor was left out of breath and far behind, but he was happy because he had been so helpful. At the next station, he found that the driver and fireman were very pleased with him. The fireman gave him a nice long drink, and the driver said,"

Driver: "I'll get out my fur tomorrow, and give you a beautiful shade of white. Then you'll be the smartest unicorn in Ponyville."

Trouble for Spike
Narrator: "Spike the Dragon wouldn't stop being a nuisance. Night after night, he kept the other animals awake."

Spike: "I'm tired of pushing buffaloes. I want to see the world."

Narrator: "The other animals didn't take much notice, for Spike was a little dragon with a long tongue.

But one night, Shining Armor came to the library. He was a kind unicorn and felt sorry for Spike."

Shining Armor: "I've got some changelings to take home tomorrow. If you take them instead of me, I'll push buffaloes in Ponyville."

Spike: "Thank you."

Narrator: "Said Spike."

Spike: "That will be nice."

Narrator: "Next morning, Shining Armor and Spike asked their drivers, and when they said "Yes", Spike ran off happily to find changelings.

Now, the changelings are silly and noisy. They talk a lot and don't attend to what they are doing. And I'm sorry to say, they play tricks on an animal who is not used to them. Shining Armor know all about changelings. He warned Spike to be careful, but Spike was too excited to listen.

The shunter fastened the arms, and when the light changed, Spike was ready. The conductor blew his whistle."

Spike: "Peep! Peep!"

Narrator: "Answered Spike, and started off. But the changelings weren't ready."

Changelings: "Oh, oh, oh!"

Narrator: "They screamed."

Changelings: "Wait, Spike, wait."

Narrator: "But Spike wouldn't wait."

Spike: "Come on, come on."

Narrator: "He puffed."

Changelings: "All right, all right, don't fuss, all right, don't fuss."

Narrator: "Grumbled the changelings.

Spike began going faster and faster."

Spike: "Wheeeee!"

Narrator: "He whistled as he rushed through Filthy Rich's tunnel."

Spike: "Hurry, hurry!"

Narrator: "Called Spike. He was feeling very proud of himself. But the changelings grew crosser and crosser. At last Spike slowed down as he came to Big Macintosh's hill."

Spike's Driver: "Steady now, steady."

Narrator: "Warned the driver as they reached the top. He began to put on the brakes."

Spike: "We're stopping, we're stopping."

Narrator: "Called Spike."

Changelings: "No, no, no!"

Narrator: "Answered the changelings, bumping into each other."

Changelings: "Go on, go on!"

Narrator: "Before the driver could stop them, they had pushed Spike down the hill and were rattling and laughing behind him.

Poor Spike tried hard to stop them from making him go too fast."

Spike: "Stop pushing, stop pushing!"

Narrator: "He hissed. But the changelings took no notice."

Changelings: "Go on, go on!"

Narrator: "They giggled in their silly way."

Spike: "There's the station. Oh dear, what shall I do?"

Narrator: "He cried. They rattled straight through and swerved into the goods yard. Spike shut his eyes."

Spike: "I must stop!"

Narrator: "When he opened his eyes, he saw he had stopped just in front of the buffers. There watching him was Hoity Toity."

Hoity Toity: "What are you doing here, Spike?"

Narrator: "He asked."

Spike: "I've brought Shining Armor's changelings."

Narrator: "Spike answered."

Hoity Toity: "Why did you come so fast?"

Spike: "I didn't mean to. I was pushed."

Narrator: "Said Spike."

Hoity Toity: "You've got a lot to learn about changelings, Spike. After pushing them about here for a few weeks, you'll know almost as much about them as Shining Armor. Then you'll be a Really Useful Dragon."

Spike Saves the Day
Narrator: "Every day, Hoity Toity came to the station to see the animals."

Hoity Toity: "Hello."

Narrator: "He always said to Spike."

Hoity Toity: "Don't let the silly changelings tease you. Remember, you have an important job as a special helper in the yard."

Narrator: "There were lots of changelings, and Spike worked very hard pushing and pulling them into place. There was also a small trailer and two strange things his driver called cranes."

Spike's Driver: "That's the breakdown crane."

Narrator: "He told Spike."

Spike's Driver: "The cranes are for lifting heavy things, like animals and changelings."

Narrator: "One day, Spike was in the yard. Suddenly, he heard a donkey screaming."

Cranky Doodle Donkey: "Help! Help!"

Narrator: "A donkey came rushing through, much too fast. The donkey was Cranky Doodle Donkey, and he was frightened. His feet were on fire."

Cranky Doodle Donkey: "They're pushing me, they're pushing me!"

Narrator: "He panted."

Changelings: "On, on, on!"

Narrator: "Laughed the changelings.

Still screaming,"

Cranky Doodle Donkey: "Help! Help!"

Narrator: "Poor Cranky disappeared."

Spike: "I'd like to teach those changelings a lesson."

Narrator: "Said Spike the Dragon.

Soon came the alarm."

Signalman: "Cranky's off the line, the breakdown crane, quickly!"

Narrator: "Spike grabbed the crane, and off they went.

Spike worked his hardest."

Spike: "Hurry, hurry, hurry!"

Narrator: "He puffed. He wasn't pretending to be like Big Macintosh; he really meant it."

Spike: "Bother those changelings and their tricks. I hope poor Cranky isn't hurt."

Narrator: "Cranky's driver and fireman were feeling him all over, to see if he was hurt."

Cranky Doodle Donkey's Driver and Fireman: "Never mind, Cranky."

Narrator: "They said."

Cranky Doodle Donkey's Driver and Fireman: "It was those silly changelings and your old wooden feet that cause the accident."

Narrator: "Spike pushed the breakdown crane alongside. Then he pulled away the unhurt changelings."

Changelings: "Oh, dear, oh, dear!"

Narrator: "They groaned."

Spike: "Serves you right, serves you right!"

Narrator: "Puffed Spike.

He was hard at work, puffing backwards and forwards all day."

Spike: "This will teach you a lesson. This will teach you a lesson."

Narrator: "He told the changelings.

And they answered,"

Changelings: "Yes it will, yes it will."

Narrator: "They left the broken changelings, then with two cranes, they put Cranky back on the line.

He tried to move, but he couldn't, so Spike helped him back home.

Hoity Toity was waiting anxiously for them."

Hoity Toity: "Well, Spike,"

Narrator: "He said,"

Hoity Toity: "I've heard all about it, and I'm very pleased with you. You're a really useful dragon.

Cranky shall have some proper feet and some new fur, and you shall have a route all to yourself."

Spike: "Oh, thank you, sir!"

Narrator: "Said Spike.

Now Spike is as happy as can be. He has a route, and two fillies called Apple Bloom and Sweetie Belle. He puffs proudly backwards and forwards with them all day.

He is never lonely. Shining Armor and Filthy Rich stop quite often and tell him the news.

Big Mac is always in a hurry, but never forgets to whistle to Spike, and Spike always whistles in return."

Cranky Learns a Lesson
Narrator: "Cranky Doodle Donkey was enjoying his life in Ponyville, but he still had a lot to learn."

Hoity Toity: "You're a mixed-traffic donkey."

Narrator: "Said Hoity Toity."

Hoity Toity: "You can take buffaloes and changelings quite easily, but you must learn by your mistakes."

Narrator: "Cranky knew what Hoity Toity meant. He could well remember that dreadful accident on his first day."

Shining Armor: "Be careful with the buffaloes, Cranky."

Narrator: "Said Shining Armor."

Shining Armor: "They don't like being bumped."

Narrator: "Everyone came to admire Cranky."

Cranky Doodle Donkey: "I'm a really splendid donkey."

Narrator: "He thought, and suddenly kicked some dirt. Some dirt fell on Hoity Toity's hair.

Just then, the conductor blew his whistle, and Cranky thought they had better go."

Cranky Doodle Donkey: "Go on! Go on!"

Narrator: "He puffed to Shining Armor."

Shining Armor: "Don't push! Don't push!"

Narrator: "Replied Shining Armor. The buffaloes were grumbling too."

Buffaloes: "Don't go so fast! Don't go so fast!"

Narrator: "But Cranky didn't listen.

When at last, they stopped at the next station, two buffaloes were beyond the platform. They had to go back to drop off their passengers. But no one seemed to know about Hoity Toity's hair, so Cranky felt happier.

Presently, they came to the station where Spike was waiting with his two fillies."

Spike: "Hello, Cranky."

Narrator: "Said Spike."

Spike: "Feeling better? That's right.

Oh, that's my conductor's whistle. I must go. I don't know what Hoity Toity would do without me to run this path."

Narrator: "And he puffed off importantly.

Shining Armor and Cranky passed the field where Cranky had had his accident. The fence was mended and the cows were back again.

They ended their journey, and rested before setting off for home. Cranky was still wondering what Hoity Toity would have to say about his hair.

Next morning, he spoke severely to Cranky."

Hoity Toity: "If you can't behave, I shall take away your brown fur, and have you wear white."

Narrator: "Cranky didn't like that at all.

He was very rough with the grumbling buffaloes as he brought them to the platform."

Cranky Doodle Donkey: "Don't talk! Come on!"

Narrator: "He called to them."

Cranky Doodle Donkey: "Big Macintosh never has to fetch his own buffaloes,"

Narrator: "He huffed to himself."

Cranky Doodle Donkey: "And he only has red fur."

Narrator: "To make Cranky even more cross, this time no one came near him."

Cranky Doodle Donkey: "I'll show them."

Narrator: "He thought.

Cranky Doodle Donkey: "They think Big Mac is the only animal who can take buffaloes.

Hurry, hurry, hurry!"

Narrator: "Puffed Cranky."

Buffaloes: "You're going too fast! You're going too fast!"

Narrator: "Replied the buffaloes. Cranky laughed and tried to go faster, but the buffaloes wouldn't let him."

Buffaloes: "We're going to stop."

Narrator: "They said."

Buffaloes: "We're going to stop!"

Cranky Doodle Donkey: "What's the matter?"

Narrator: "Cranky asked his driver."

Cranky Doodle Donkey's Driver: "The buffaloes are hard on. Scratch on the leg most likely. You've banged the buffaloes enough to make a scratch on anything."

Conductor: "How should we mend it?"

Narrator: "Said the conductor."

Cranky Doodle Donkey's Driver: "We'll do it with newspaper and a leather bootlace."

Narrator: "Replied the driver."

Conductor: "Well, where is the bootlace coming from?"

Narrator: "Asked the conductor."

Cranky Doodle Donkey's Driver: "Ask the passengers."

Narrator: "Said the driver."

Conductor: "You have leather bootlace there, I see, sir."

Narrator: "Said the conductor to a smarty dressed man."

Conductor: "Please give it to me."

Jeremiah Jobling: "I won't."

Narrator: "Said the man."

Conductor: "Then,"

Narrator: "Said the conductor,"

Conductor: "I'm afraid we'll all have to stay where we are."

Narrator: "The passengers all said what a bad land it was. Then they told the man how bad he was instead. Everyone was very cross.

At last, he handed his laces over.

The driver tied a pad of newspaper tightly around the hole in the leg, and Cranky was able to take the buffaloes.

But he was a sadder and wiser Cranky, and took care never to bump buffaloes again."

Foolish Changelings
Narrator: "Cranky Doodle Donkey had not been out to work with buffaloes or changelings around Ponyville for several days. He was feeling miserable."

Cranky Doodle Donkey: "Oh dear."

Narrator: "He thought."

Cranky Doodle Donkey: "I wonder how long I shall have to stay in the house. Will anyone see my brown fur again? Why did I go so fast I made a scratch on one of my buffaloes that had to be mended with, of all things, a passengers' bootlace?"

Narrator: "At last, Hoity Toity arrived."

Hoity Toity: "I know you are sorry, Cranky."

Narrator: "He said."

Hoity Toity: "And I know too that you want to be a useful donkey. People are laughing at my town and I don't like that at all."

Cranky Doodle Donkey: "I will try hard to do my best."

Narrator: "Said Cranky."

Hoity Toity: "That's a good donkey. There's nothing like determination. I want you to take some changelings for me."

Narrator: "Cranky was delighted and puffed away."

Spike: "Here are your changelings, Cranky."

Narrator: "Said Spike."

Spike: "Have you got some bootlaces ready?"

Narrator: "And he ran off laughing."

Changelings: "Oh, oh, oh!"

Narrator: "Said the changelings."

Changelings: "We want a proper animal. Not a brown monster."

Narrator: "Cranky took no notice and started as soon as the conductor was ready."

Cranky Doodle Donkey: "Come along, come along."

Narrator: "He puffed."

Changelings: "We won't, we won't!"

Narrator: "Screamed the changelings. But Cranky didn't care and pull the screeching changelings sternly out of the station.

The changelings tried hard to make him give up, but he still kept on. Sometimes, they'd come to a standstill. And sometimes their hooves would run hot. And each time, the trouble had to be put right. And each time, Cranky would start again determined not to let them beat him."

Changelings: "Give up, give up! You can't pull us! You can't, you can't!"

Narrator: "Called the changelings."

Cranky Doodle Donkey: "I can and I will! I can and I will!"

Narrator: "Puffed Cranky. Slowly but surely, he pulled them along the path.

At last they saw Big Macintosh's hill."

Cranky Doodle Donkey's Driver; "Look out for trouble, Cranky."

Narrator: "Warned his driver."

Cranky Doodle Donkey's Driver: "We'll go fast and get them up before they know it. Don't let them stop you."

Narrator: "So Cranky went faster and soon they were half way up."

Cranky Doodle Donkey: "I'm doing it, I'm doing it!"

Narrator: "He panted."

Cranky Doodle Donkey: "Will the top never come?"

Narrator: "Then, with a sudden jerk, it all came easier."

Cranky Doodle Donkey: "I've done it, I've done it!"

Narrator: "He puffed."

Cranky Doodle Donkey: "Hooray! It's easy now."

Narrator: "But he driver shut off steam."

Cranky Doodle Donkey's Driver: "They've done it again. We've left our tail behind. Look."

Narrator: "The last changelings were running backwards down the hill. A rope had snapped. But the conductor stopped the changelings and got out to warn approaching animals."

Cranky Doodle Donkey: "That's why it was easy."

Narrator: "Said Cranky, as he back the other changelings carefully down."

Cranky Doodle Donkey: "What silly things changelings are! There might had been an accident."

Shining Armor: "Shall I help you, Cranky?"

Narrator: "Called Shining Armor."

Cranky Doodle Donkey: "No thank you."

Narrator: "Answered Cranky."

Cranky Doodle Donkey: "I'll pull them myself."

Shining Armor: "Good. Don't let them beat you. You're doing well."

Narrator: "Whistled Shining Armor, as Cranky slowly struggled up the hill."

Cranky Doodle Donkey: "I can do it, I can do it!"

Narrator: "He puffed. He pulled and puffed as hard as he could."

Cranky Doodle Donkey: "I've done it, I've done it!"

Narrator: "He panted.

They reach the station safely and Cranky was resting when Shining Armor pulled up."

Shining Armor: "Peep, peep!"

Narrator: "He whistled. Then Cranky saw Hoity Toity."

Cranky Doodle Donkey: "Oh dear! What will he say?"

Narrator: "He asked himself.

But Hoity Toity was smiling."

Hoity Toity: "I was with Shining Armor and I saw everything."

Narrator: "He said."

Hoity Toity: "You made the most troublesome changelings in town behave. After that, you deserve to keep your brown fur."

No Joke for Cranky
Narrator: "Cranky is a mixed-traffic donkey. He can take both changelings and buffaloes. He's proud of his smart brown fur and blonde wig, and so is his driver."

Cranky Doodle Donkey's Driver: "Everyone says you brighten up their day, Cranky."

Narrator: "One morning, Cranky whistled loudly at the other animals."

Cranky Doodle Donkey: "Look at me! I am the smartest, most useful animal on the path!"

Spike: "Rubbish!"

Narrator: "Replied Spike."

Spike: "We're all useful! Hoity Toity says so, and he's head of the whole town."

Pipsqueak: "You know what, Cranky?"

Narrator: "Added Pipsqueak."

Cranky Doodle Donkey: "What?"

Narrator: "Replied Cranky."

Pipsqueak: "You're getting all puffed up."

Narrator: "Cranky huffed away.

Later, he was still boasting."

Cranky Doodle Donkey: "I'm the pride of the path."

Big Macintosh: "I saw you taking changelings."

Narrator: "Snorted Big Macintosh."

Big Macintosh: "You're only a goods donkey."

Cranky Doodle Donkey: "I take buffaloes too!"

Big Macintosh: "Not as mush as I do."

Cranky Doodle Donkey: "But Hoity Toity has plans for me."

Narrator: "Cranky was only making this up, but Big Mac believed him."

Big Macintosh: "What plans?"

Cranky Doodle Donkey: "Ah, wait and see.

Oh dear."

Narrator: "He thought."

Cranky Doodle Donkey: "Now what'll I do?"

Narrator: "Spike was arranging shiny new buffaloes."

Spike: "Good morning, Cranky."

Cranky Doodle Donkey: "Are those buffaloes for me?"

Narrator: "Asked Cranky hopefully."

Spike: "No. These are for Big Mac's express. I'll fetch your changelings next."

Narrator: "But Cranky was going to play a trick on the other animals."

Cranky Doodle Donkey: "Actually, Spike, I'm taking the buffaloes. Hoity Toity asked me to tell you."

Spike: "What about the changelings?"

Narrator: "Asked Spike."

Cranky Doodle Donkey: "Ah, give them Big Mac."

Spike's Driver: "Come on, Spike."

Narrator: "Said his driver."

Spike's Driver: "Orders are orders."

Narrator: "So when Cranky's driver returned, Cranky was hooked up to the buffaloes and he puffed away.

Spike returned with the changelings, and a few minutes later, Big Mac arrived."

Big Macintosh: "Where's the express?"

Narrator: "Spike told him about Cranky."

Spike: "And so here are your changelings."

Narrator: "Big Mac was very cross, and so was his driver."

Big Macintosh's Driver: "Wait till Hoity Toity hears about this!"

Narrator: "Meanwhile, Cranky was enjoying himself enormously."

Cranky Doodle Donkey: "What a clever plan, what a clever plan!"

Narrator: "He chuffed.

Then he saw Hoity Toity."

Hoity Toity: "Some jokes are funny, but not this one Cranky. You have caused confusion!"

Cranky Doodle Donkey: "Yes, sir."

Narrator: "Said Cranky."

Hoity Toity: "You will now stay in your house until you are wanted!"

Narrator: "The other animals teased Cranky."

Big Macintosh: "I wonder who'll be pulling the express today."

Narrator: "Said Big Mac."

Filthy Rich: "I expect it'll be you."

Narrator: "Replied Filthy Rich."

Filthy Rich: "Cranky is stuck in his house for being silly."

Narrator: "Cranky felt sad.

Next morning, he went back to work."

Spike: "Hello."

Narrator: "Whistled Spike."

Spike: "Good to see you out and about again."

Cranky Doodle Donkey: "I'm sorry I tricked you."

Narrator: "Said Cranky."

Cranky Doodle Donkey: "Are these my changelings?"

Spike: "Yes."

Narrator: "Replied Spike kindly."

Spike: "They are pleased to have you back."

Narrator: "Cranky set off to the harbor with his line of changelings. He bustled about all day, pushing and pulling them into place."

Cranky Doodle Donkey's Driver: "Time to go home now, Cranky."

Narrator: "Said his driver at last."

Cranky Doodle Donkey's Driver: "No changelings or passengers, just we two."

Narrator: "But his driver was wrong."

Jeremiah Jobling: "Excuse me."

Narrator: "Called a man."

Jeremiah Jobling: "I have a meeting with Hoity Toity and I mustn't be late. May I come back with you?"

Cranky Doodle Donkey's Driver: "Of course."

Narrator: "Replied Cranky's driver. Then he whispered to Cranky."

Cranky Doodle Donkey's Driver: "This gentleman is a town inspector."

Narrator: "Cranky was most impressed.

He walked along the path as smoothly and quickly as he could

Hoity Toity was waiting on the platform, and the town inspector greeted them warmly."

Jeremiah Jobling: "This clever donkey gave me a splendid walk. You must be proud of him."

Hoity Toity: "Yes, indeed. Once again you are a Really Useful Donkey."

Spike, Pipsqueak and the Mail
Narrator: "At night, when the other animals are tucked away in the homes, you can still hear the faraway call of an animal, and the sound of feet moving.

This is the sound of the mail delivery. One set of mail is delivered by Spike, and the other by Pipsqueak, as the loads are too heavy for one animal to do the work alone. The mail is given to changelings at the harbor, and the animals pull their line through the silent stations delivering their precious loads.

On a clear night, a big shiny moon brightens their journey, but often Spike and Pipsqueak can't even see the stars. But whatever the weather, lamps along the path always light their way.

One night, Pipsqueak was waiting at the junction. The main path line was late. At last, Filthy Rich arrived."

Filthy Rich: "Sorry."

Narrator: "He puffed."

Filthy Rich: "The mail boat from the mainland was delayed."

Pipsqueak's Driver: "Come on, Pipsqueak."

Narrator: "Said his driver."

Pipsqueak's Driver: "Let's make up for lost time."

Narrator: "Pipsqueak puffed along as quickly as he could, but the sun was already rising as he finished his work."

Pipsqueak: "Never mind."

Narrator: "Thought Pipsqueak."

Pipsqueak: "It's nice to be up an about when it's the start of a new day and there's no one else around."

Narrator: "Pipsqueak was not alone for long."

Pipsqueak: "Bother!"

Narrator: "Thought Pipsqueak."

Pipsqueak: "It's that dizzy thing, Owlowiscious."

Owlowiscious: "Good morning."

Narrator: "Whirled Owlowiscious."

Owlowiscious: "I always said roads were out of date, but you're so slow with the mail. You should give everyone their stamps back."

Narrator: "Pipsqueak was too tired to explained."

Pipsqueak: "Bird brain!"

Narrator: "He muttered."

Soarin: "Good morning, Pipsqueak."

Narrator: "Called Soarin."

Soarin: "You're up early this morning."

Pipsqueak: "No, you're wrong."

Narrator: "Sighed Pipsqueak."

Pipsqueak: "I'm back tired and late."

Narrator: "He rolled into the library and fell asleep almost before his back hooves touched the wall.

His driver decided to set off early that evening. Spike was waiting at the station."

Spike: "Thank goodness I have a chance to speak to you. Driver says that the person in charge of the mail has complained to Hoity Toity about the delay last night."

Pipsqueak: "But that wasn't my fault."

Narrator: "Replied Pipsqueak."

Spike: "I know."

Narrator: "Said Spike."

Spike: "And so does Hoity Toity, but this mail person wouldn't listen. Tonight, we'll just have to be quicker than ever before."

Narrator: "The animals were just leaving when they heard a familiar buzzing."

Owlowiscious: "I say you two, there's news flying about."

Pipsqueak: "Where?"

Narrator: "Puffed Pipsqueak crossly."

Owlowiscious: "All over the place. They're going to scrap your mail deliveries and use me instead. Wings work wonders, you know. Always."

Spike: "Rubbish!"

Narrator: "Huffed Spike.

That night, everything ran like clockwork. Spike and Pipsqueak went through the stations, making good time everywhere they went.

At a station, Spike saw a man looking cold and worried. He had missed his ride home."

Spike's Driver: "We can give you a ride."

Narrator: "Said Spike's driver."

Spike's Driver: "But it'll be rather uncomfortable."

Jeremiah Jobling: "Thank you."

Narrator: "Said the man."

Jeremiah Jobling: "Anything's better than sitting here."

Narrator: "The next afternoon, Pipsqueak past the big trees and saw Owlowiscious."

Pipsqueak: "Hello, lazy wings. Are you too tired to fly today?"

Owlowiscious: "The wind's too strong."

Narrator: "Grumbled Owlowiscious."

Owlowiscious: "I've been grounded."

Pipsqueak: "You need roads."

Narrator: "Laughed Pipsqueak."

Pipsqueak: "They work wonders, you know. Always."

Narrator: "That night, Hoity Toity showed the two animals a letter. It was from the man who missed his ride."

Hoity Toity: "He thinks you are both splendid, and everyone says that the mail delivery is the pride of the path."

Bye Score!
Narrator: "One day, Score the Grey Pegasus was waiting for Pipsqueak to take him to a new workplace. Score was being rude to Woody and Buzz Lightyear."

Score: "You're just worn-out toys on worn-out roads!"

Woody: "You need clouds for your skies."

Narrator: "Said Woody,"

Woody: "And we're helping you."

Score: "I need to flatten little toys in the scrapyards."

Narrator: "Retorted Score.

Then, Pipsqueak arrived to take Score away. He was still rebelling."

Score: "Roads are no good! Turn them into clouds!"

Narrator: "The toys were pleased to see him go.

Score grumbled all the way to the old town. He was going to turn it into clouds.

When they arrived, Score was rude again."

Score: "Bumpy ride on rotten roads. I'm glad it's over!"

Pipsqueak: "So am I."

Narrator: "Said Pipsqueak."

Score: "Ha!"

Narrator: "Huffed Score.

Pipsqueak was till fuming when he met Spike."

Spike: "What's up, Pipsqueak?"

Pipsqueak: "It's Score. He makes me feel down."

Spike: "Just ignore him."

Narrator: "Puffed Spike.

Score was now enjoying himself."

Score: "Ripping up roads!"

Narrator: "He chortled."

Score: "What a life!"

(Spike whistles)

Score: "What do you think of this, Spike?"

Narrator: "Spike took no notice. Score felt insulted."

Score: "You're a useless purple puffball!"

Narrator: "Said Score, but Spike didn't hear."

Score: "I'll show him who's boss!"

Narrator: "At last, the workmen reached the level crossing."

Workman: "What shall we do here?"

Score: "Tear it up! Tarmac it!"

Narrator: "Said Score. So they did, but not properly, and Score knew it.

Later, Spike was traveling home on the same road. He was helping changelings deliver vegetables. The signalman had forgotten to warn his driver about the crossing."

Spike: "That's nice, we don't need to stop."

Narrator: "Said Spike happily."

Spike's Driver: "Yes, we do."

Narrator: "Called his driver. But it was too late."

CRASH!

Narrator: "Next day, Pipsqueak told Big Mac all about Score."

Big Macintosh: "Ha!"

Narrator: "Snorted Big Macintosh."

Big Macintosh: "You're just a small pony. That's why he's rude to you. He wouldn't dare cause me any trouble!"

Narrator: "Score had been taken to some yards to work.

Soarin arrived with some changelings.

Score was blocking his way, and a changeling was stuck on the main road."

Soarin: "Let me through!"

Narrator: "Demanded Soarin."

Score: "You'll just have to wait!"

Soarin: "There's no time to wait. I must clear my changelings from the main road to let Big Mac through!"

Score: "Then he'll have to wait too!"

Narrator: "Said Score.

Soarin's driver went to complain to the Stationmaster, but the Signalman had set the signal to allow Big Macintosh to speed through.

His passengers were singing his praises, and he was making express time."

Big Macintosh: "I'm the greatest! Just watch me fly by!"

Narrator: "He whistled long and loud as he approached the station."

(Big Macintosh whistles)

Narrator: "Suddenly, he saw a changeling on the road ahead."

Big Macintosh: "Get out of my way!"

Narrator: "But the changeling wouldn't move. Until Big Mac forced it,"

CRASH!

Narrator: "By accident."

Big Mac was worried that Hoity Toity would be cross. He was, but not with Big Mac."

Hoity Toity: "Who ever caused this disturbance will have me to answer to."

Narrator: "And he did, a few days later."

Spike: "Look who's here!"

Narrator: "Said Spike.

Score had been found out by Hoity Toity and punished. He looked miserable.

Pipsqueak: "Now we'll have some peace at last!"

Narrator: "Said Pipsqueak."

Score: "I want to get flying again, but I've got to wait a whole week till' I do."

Spike: "And then you'll be just as rude as ever. Eh, Score?"

Narrator: "I hope not. Don't you?"
