Transcript
Narrator: "Rosie the Super Spirited Engine was terribly ill. Workmen had tried to make her feel so much better, but it was no use."

Mr. Percival: "Emily must take you to the works."

Narrator: said Mr. Percival.

Narrator: Rosie felt very miserable and tired.

Narrator: Then Mr. Percival spoke to Stanley.

Mr. Percival: "I want you to help Thomas, Percy and Toby while Rosie is away."

Narrator: Stanley was delighted, he already knew Thomas, and very soon made good friends with Toby and Percy. Bertie the Bus gave him a big welcome as well.

Bertie: "Take good care of Rosie's coaches."

Narrator: he replied to him.

Bertie: "She's sure to miss them while she's away."

Narrator: "Soarin was very gently with the fillies. Apple Bloom and Sweetie Belle were very impressed."

Apple Bloom and Sweetie Belle: "Such nice manners."

Narrator: "They told each other."

Apple Bloom and Sweetie Belle: "It really is a pleasure to go out with him."

Narrator: "When Spike came back, Apple Bloom and Sweetie Belle told him how well Soarin had managed. Spike was so please to be home that he soon forgot to be jealous.

The works had left Spike's feet very stiff. It made his feet seem as if they weren't moving, when in fact they were.

As a result, he and his fillies often over ran the platform. Spike found this most embarrassing.

Gradually, his driver and fireman learned to be extra careful. But one day, Spike's fireman was ill and a relief man took his place.

The fireman had tied the ropes, and joined the driver and stationmaster on the platform to wait for Filthy Rich's passengers. The fireman had forgotten all about Spike's feet. Spike simmered happily."

Spike: "Not long now."

Narrator: "He thought, as he saw Filthy Rich slowly approaching.

But then, Spike felt his feet begin to move. He tried to stop, but he couldn't without his driver and fireman. He tried to whistle a warning, but he couldn't do that either. The conductor, driver, fireman and passengers were all stranded on the platform."

Apple Bloom and Sweetie Belle: "Stop, stop!"

Narrator: "Shrieked Apple Bloom and Sweetie Belle. But Spike, with plenty of energy, kept on going. The alarm went off down the road."

Signalman: "Stop the runaway!"

Narrator: "There, ready for action, was Owlowiscious the Owl. The inspector had made a plan, and together they took off into the sky.

At last, Spike was tiring."

Spike: "I need to stop, I need to stop."

Narrator: "He panted wearily.

As they neared the next station, Spike saw Owlowiscious land.

They entered the platform slowly enough for the inspector to act. Judging his moment, the inspector jumped on Spike and stopped him.

At last, Spike stopped. Both he and the inspector were very relief. Then they thanked Owlowiscious."

Owlowiscious: "Thank nothing of it."

Narrator: "Whirled Owlowiscious."

Owlowiscious: "Glad to be of service anytime."

Inspector: "Phew!"

Narrator: "Remarked the inspector."

Inspector: "We must never let this happen again, Spike."

Narrator: "Wearily, Spike agreed with him."
