Script

 * (We open this episode with the Thomas and Friends Season 7 intro)
 * (After that, we begin the character introduction)
 * Michael Brandon: Thomas is a really useful engine. Here's Percy. He is a very happy engine. James is a magnificent engine. Gordon is the most fastest engine on the Island of Sodor. Henry is long and fast. Here's Edward always here to help. Toby is a different engine, he's a tram engine.
 * (A passing by sequence occurs and we begin Gordon and Spencer)
 * Michael Brandon: It was a sunny day on the Island of Sodor and all the engines were working hard. Gordon was feeling very excited.
 * Gordon: Morning, Thomas. I looked my best and you know why?
 * Thomas: Why?
 * Gordon: Because The Duke and Duchess are visiting. Sir Topham Hatt will be choosing me as their special engine.
 * Thomas: Pah!
 * Michael Brandon: Puffed Thomas. After Gordon had been washed and polished, he rushed away to meet the visitors. But a signal diverted Gordon into a siding. He was very upset.
 * Gordon: I'm going to be late!
 * Michael Brandon: He muttered. A huge engine rocketed by.
 * Gordon: Steaming pistons! Who's that?
 * Michael Brandon: Gordon soon found out. When he arrived at the shed, the huge engine was humming quietly.
 * Spencer: (humming)
 * Gordon: Who are you?
 * James: This is Spencer. He's the fastest engine in the world.
 * Spencer: (hums a little more)
 * Gordon: Huh!
 * Michael Brandon: But secretly Gordon was impressed.
 * Spencer: I'm the Duke and Duchess' private engine. I take them everywhere.
 * Sir Topham Hatt: There will be a party for the Duke and Duchess at Maron station.
 * James: That's far away over Gordon's Hill.
 * Gordon: You'll need to take on plenty of water.
 * Michael Brandon: Muttered Gordon.
 * Spencer: I had plenty of water.
 * Michael Brandon: Wheeshed Spencer and he raced away.
 * Gordon: I was only trying to be useful.
 * Michael Brandon: Grunted Gordon.
 * (The guard blew the whistle and Spencer sets off at once)
 * Michael Brandon: Spencer showed the Duke and Duchess many beautiful places. But he never stopped once to take on more water. Gordon and Thomas were collecting passengers when Spencer raced through on his way to the party.
 * (Spencer speeds through the station)
 * Gordon: Don't forget the water!
 * Spencer: Who cares!
 * Thomas: He'll be in trouble soon.
 * Michael Brandon: Sighed Thomas. And Spencer was. He ran out of water on Gordon's Hill.
 * Spencer: Why didn't I listen?
 * Michael Brandon: Sir Topham Hatt soon heard the news.
 * Sir Topham Hatt: I'll send Gordon.
 * Michael Brandon: He boomed. When Gordon arrived, the stationmaster was waiting.
 * Stationmaster: You need to rescue Spencer. He's stuck on the hill.
 * Gordon's Driver: Hurry, Gordon.
 * Michael Brandon: Said his driver. Gordon was looking forward to seeing Spencer.
 * Gordon: Run out of water?
 * Michael Brandon: He teased.
 * Spencer: Yes!
 * Michael Brandon: Snapped Spencer.
 * Spencer: I must have a leaky tank.
 * Gordon: Perhaps.
 * Michael Brandon: Smiled Gordon.
 * Gordon: But we better hurry. Everyone is waiting.
 * Michael Brandon: Gordon switched to Spencer's line and was coupled up. Then they set off.
 * (Gordon's whistle blows)
 * (Gordon leads Spencer to Maron Station)
 * Gordon: See?
 * Michael Brandon: Said Gordon.
 * Gordon: We're right on time.
 * Michael Brandon: But Spencer was embarrassed.
 * Thomas: What did you think of Spencer now?
 * Michael Brandon: Thomas whispered.
 * James: Too much puff and not enough steam.
 * Sir Topham Hatt: Well done.
 * Michael Brandon: Said Sir Topham Hatt.
 * Sir Topham Hatt: You're the fastest engine on Sodor.
 * Gordon: I know that.
 * Michael Brandon: Muttered Gordon.
 * (Another passing by sequence occurs and we begin Really Useful Engine)
 * Children: (singing) He's a really useful engine you know. All the other engines they'll tell you so. He huffs and puffs and whistles, rushing to and fro. He's a really useful engine we adore! He's the one, he's the one. He's a really useful engine that we adore. He's the one. He's the number one, Thomas the Tank Engine. He's a really useful engine you know. Cause the Fat Controller, he told him so. Now he's got a branch line to call his very own. He's a really useful engine we adore! He's the one, he's the one. He's a really useful engine that we adore. He's the one. He's the number one, Thomas the Tank Engine. Little blue train, he's always there whenever you need a hand. If you need help with a situation who comes into mind. He's the one, he's the one. He's a really useful engine that we adore. He's the one. He's the number one, Thomas the Tank Engine. He's a really useful engine you know.

He's the one. He's the number one, Thomas the Tank Engine. He's the really useful engine we adore!
 * (Another passing by sequence occurs and we begin Trusty Rusty)
 * Michael Brandon: Rusty repairs the railway that winds through the mountains on the Island of Sodor. The little diesel checks that the tracks, tunnels and bridges are all in good working order. One day, Rusty was crossing the old wooden bridge. There was a big bump in the track. Rusty's driver stopped to check the bridge.
 * Rusty's Driver: There are cracks in the supports.
 * Michael Brandon: He said.
 * Rusty: Ooh, that could be dangerous.
 * Michael Brandon: Cried Rusty.
 * Rusty: It might fall down if it's not repaired.
 * Michael Brandon: And they hurried off to warn the other engines. The engines were waiting for their coal when Rusty arrived.
 * Rusty: Don't use the old wooden bridge.
 * Michael Brandon: Said Rusty.
 * Rusty: It's dangerous!
 * Duncan: How would you know?
 * Michael Brandon: Wheeshed Duncan.
 * Duncan: You're only a diesel.
 * Michael Brandon: And he puffed crossly away. He didn't even wait for his coal. Rusty hurried down the mountain to tell Sir Topham Hatt the bad news.
 * Sir Topham Hatt: Thank you.
 * Michael Brandon: Said Sir Topham Hatt.
 * Sir Topham Hatt: I'll send engineers to investigate the bridge. Meanwhile, nobody is to use it.
 * Michael Brandon: Rusty's driver put up a sign: Line Closed. The engines had to travel a different way. Meanwhile, Duncan needed more coal to get home. But when he arrived at the coal bunker, it was empty.
 * Duncan: Bother! I won't get home without more coal. Where's the nearest bunker?
 * Skarloey: On the other side of the old wooden bridge. But you can't cross. Rusty says it's not safe.
 * Duncan: Rusty always makes things sound worst than they are.
 * Duncan's Driver: I'm sure one trip across the old wooden bridge wont hurt.
 * Michael Brandon: Added his driver. When they got to the junction, Duncan's driver removed the sign and they set off towards the bridge. This was a big mistake. Suddenly, Duncan hissed to a halt.
 * Duncan: I'm out of steam.
 * Michael Brandon: He had used up all his coal.
 * Duncan: What's that?
 * Michael Brandon: He asked nervously. His driver looked out. The old wooden bridge was starting to collapse.
 * Skarloey: Rusty!
 * Michael Brandon: Called Skarloey.
 * Skarloey: Duncan's gone across the bridge.
 * Rusty: I better check he's all right.
 * Michael Brandon: The little diesel said. But the cracks in the supports were getting larger. A beam snapped. Timber pieces splashed into the water below.
 * Duncan: Help!
 * Michael Brandon: Whistled Duncan.
 * Duncan: I'm going to fall!
 * Michael Brandon: But Rusty was on the way. Soon, the little diesel reached the old wooden bridge. Duncan had never looked so scared. Rusty chuffed bravely onto the bridge.
 * Duncan: Careful!
 * Michael Brandon: Gasped Duncan. Soon, they were coupled up.
 * Rusty: Hold on!
 * Michael Brandon: Said Rusty.
 * Duncan: Whoa!
 * Michael Brandon: Shouted Duncan. The little diesel pulled him off the bridge just in time.
 * Rusty: Don't use the old wooden bridge.
 * Michael Brandon: Said Rusty.
 * Rusty: It's dangerous!
 * (The old wooden bridge collapses in the process)
 * Michael Brandon: Sir Topham Hatt was cross with Duncan.
 * Sir Topham Hatt: That was very irresponsible.
 * Duncan: Yes, sir. Sorry, sir. And Rusty you were very brave.
 * Rusty: Ah, thanks.
 * Sir Topham Hatt: Yes, Rusty, you really are a useful engine.
 * Rusty: Thank you, Sir.
 * Michael Brandon: Rusty felt very reliable too.
 * (Another passing by sequence occurs and we begin The Whistle Song)
 * (Engines whistling)
 * Children: (singing) Doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo doo. Engines all have whistles, as everybody knows. And as they leave the station, you hear the whistle blow. Speeding down the hillside, the whistles blown with pride, Driver checks the signal, and whistles one more time. Engines, blow your whistles; Toby, ring your bell. Gordon and Henry, Thomas as well, Engines, blow your whistles and let's all have some fun! Engines, blow your whistles; Let's hear the whistle song! Every whistle's different; No two will sound the same, It helps to warn off danger if something's in your way. Whistles are important as every engine knows, Clear the line ahead now when the whistle blows! Engines, blow your whistles; Toby, ring your bell, James and Edward, Percy as well. Engines, blow your whistles and let's all have some fun, Engines, blow your whistles; Let's hear the whistle song An engine lost its whistle and could not make a sound. It really was a problem until one could be found. 'Cause an engine's not an engine if it hasn't got a whistle, Hear the whistle blows! Engines, blow your whistles; Toby, ring your bell, Gordon and Henry, Thomas as well. Engines, blow your whistles and let's all have some fun, Engines, blow your whistles; Let's hear the whistle song.
 * Girl: One long whistle means coming up fast.
 * Boy: Two in the fog, give two short blasts.
 * Girl: One, two, three, means clear up the line.
 * Children: Let's blow our whistles one more time! (singing) Engines, blow your whistles; Toby, ring your bell, James and Edward, Percy as well. Engines blow your whistles, and let's all have some fun, Engines blow your whistles, Let's hear the whistle song!
 * (Whistle blowing)
 * (Another passing by sequence occurs and we begin Hooray For Thomas)
 * Michael Brandon: It was an exciting day on the Island of Sodor.
 * Harold: Good morning!
 * Michael Brandon: Called Harold. Annie and Clarabel were full of happy children. Thomas was taking them to their annual sports day. Everything was ready for the day to begin.
 * Boy: I hope I'm Number 1 and win a medal.
 * Michael Brandon: Said a boy.
 * Thomas: It must be splendid to win a medal.
 * Michael Brandon: Chuffed Thomas.
 * Thomas: After all I'm engine Number 1.
 * Michael Brandon: Thomas worked hard all day. But he couldn't stop thinking about medals. He imagined himself wearing a gold medal on a red ribbon. How smart he would look.
 * Percy: Hello, Thomas.
 * Michael Brandon: Whistled Percy.
 * Percy: I'm taking Sir Topham Hatt to sports day.
 * Thomas: You can see the egg and spoon race.
 * Michael Brandon: Chuffed Thomas.
 * Percy: I didn't know eggs and spoons had races.
 * Bertie: A children race with eggs on spoon.
 * Michael Brandon: Said Bertie.
 * Thomas: And the winner gets a medal. I wish I could have a medal.
 * Percy: You need to win a race first.

 * Bertie: I'll race you, Thomas. The first one to the station is the winner.
 * Thomas: You're on!
 * Michael Brandon: Whistled Thomas.
 * Bertie: Ready, steady, go!
 * (Thomas and Bertie race off at full speed)
 * Thomas: Better hurry, Bertie.
 * Michael Brandon: Peeped Thomas. Then, Thomas had to stop to pick up some passengers.
 * Bertie: Better hurry, Thomas.
 * Michael Brandon: Teased Bertie as he rattled over the bridge. Then, Bertie had to stop at the level crossing.
 * Thomas: Last one there puffs hot air.
 * Michael Brandon: Called Thomas. Thomas was nearly at the station. As he drew near the plane field, a signalman flagged him down. Now Thomas was really cross. Bertie was sure to win. Then he saw Sir Topham Hatt.
 * Sir Topham Hatt: Thomas, the sports day medals have been left in my office. You must fetch them at once. We can't let the children down.
 * Thomas: Of course not, sir.
 * Michael Brandon: Replied Thomas and he chuffed away. Meanwhile, Bertie had raced into the station.
 * Bertie: I won!
 * Michael Brandon: Shouted Bertie.
 * Bertie: I won!
 * Michael Brandon: And he waited eagerly for Thomas. He waited and waited. But Thomas had forgotten about the race. He was thinking about the children.
 * Thomas: I can't let them down, I can't let them down.
 * Michael Brandon: At last, Thomas puffed back into the big station. The stationmaster gave Thomas' driver the box of medals. Then, Thomas set off again. He arrived just in time.
 * Sir Topham Hatt: Well done.
 * Michael Brandon: Said Sir Topham Hatt.
 * Thomas: Thank you, Sir.
 * Michael Brandon: Panted Thomas. Sir Topham Hatt presented the medals to the winners.
 * Sir Topham Hatt: Congratulations.
 * Boy: Thank you sir.
 * Michael Brandon: The next day, Bertie and the medal winner arrived with a surprise for Thomas. A small boy presented him with a gold medal on a red ribbon.
 * Sir Topham Hatt: You were very helpful at sports day.
