Transcript
Narrator: Frieda, Molly and Rebecca are all great friends. They're also good friends to Gordon, James and Henry. The three female engines all have the same birthdays, and they always enjoy spending it with each other.

Gordon: Frieda's birthday is coming up next week.

James: Don't forget, it's the same day as Molly's.

Henry: And Rebecca's.

Gordon: I know. I think we should do something special for the three ladies this year, but I don't know what.

James: You mean like a party?

Henry: Or spending the day with them?

Oliver: Excuse me, I couldn't help overhearing. Did one of you say something about birthdays?

Gordon: Yes. We're trying to think of an idea of what to do for Frieda, Molly and Rebecca's birthdays next week.

Oliver: I think I may have an idea.

James: You do?

Oliver: Yes. A few years ago, I was celebrating Rosie's birthday with her. I spent the day working with her. And when we came back to Knapford that evening, we had a surprise party for her. She thought it was the best birthday ever.

Henry: Maybe we should do the same for Rebecca, Frieda and Molly.

James: I like the sound of that.

Gordon: Count me in. We'll need to tell Sir Topham Hatt first though.

Narrator: Later, the three tender engines told Sir Topham Hatt their idea.

James: So can we have a party for them, please, sir?

Sir Topham Hatt: Of course we can have a party for them. I'm sure Frieda, Molly and Rebecca would love that.

Narrator: The three female engines' birthday soon came. And Gordon, James and Henry went to see them.

Gordon: How would each of you like to spend the day with us? Frieda, I have to take the express because Pip and Emma need repairs done. Would you like to help me?

Frieda: Of course, Gordon.

James: Molly, I need some help with track maintenance on Edward's Branch Line, would you like to help me?

Molly: Sure, James.

Henry: Rebecca, I need some help with a heavy goods train that needs to be taken from Knapford to Vicarstown. Would you like to help me?

Rebecca: Yes, Henry. I'm always happy to help my friends.

Narrator: The engines were soon at work.

Rebecca: I'm having a good time, Henry. But when are we...

Molly: Going to do...

Frieda: Something fun.

Gordon: Oh, well, we'll do it at the end of the day.

James: We'll have some real fun soon.

Henry: You know what they say; work comes before play.

Rebecca: I suppose you've got a point.

Molly: Alright then.

Frieda: Very well.

Narrator: Frieda, Rebecca and Molly found it hard wait, but they felt sure that whatever Gordon, Henry and James have planned will be worth the wait.

Gordon: We're all done for the day.

James: So are me and Molly.

Henry: And me and Rebecca.

Rebecca: What are we going to do now?

Henry: We're all to go to Knapford.

Frieda: Knapford?

Molly: For what?

James: You'll see.

Narrator: When they arrived at Knapford, it was very dark. And no one could be seen.

Rebecca: Now what?

All the Engines (as the lights come on): Surprise!

Frieda: Oh my!

Molly: Wow!

Oliver: While you were out working, most of us have been busy preparing this party.

Thomas: Gordon, James and Henry wanted to have a party for you three. We didn't say anything because they wanted it to be a surprise party.

Percy: We've even managed to invite some friends from the Mainland, including Flying Scotsman,

Flying Scotsman: I just couldn't say no to a party that was my brother's idea.

Percy: Hiro,

Hiro: Glad I could came.

Percy: Connor and Caitlin,

Connor: Hi, there.

Caitlin: Happy to come and celebrate.

Percy: And from the steelworks, Lexi, Theo, Merlin, Hurricane and Frankie.

Lexi: Happy birthday!

Theo: Yes, happy birthday.

Hurricane: We'd never say no to a celebration.

Frankie: Especially if it's for a birthday.

Merlin: It was quite a surprise, wasn't it?

Molly: It certainly was.

James: Well then, let's party.

(Later during the party)

Frieda: Thank you for this party, you three.

Molly: It was very nice of you.

James: We knew you'd love this.

Gordon: We wanted you three to have a great birthday.

Henry: Because you three are great friends to us.

Rebecca: Well, we're very happy to have friends like you three.

(All the engines whistle and toot with joy)
