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.
 * (A passing by sequence occurs and we begin Percy Gets It Right)
 * Michael Brandon: At harvest time, the air was filled with the smell of fresh fruit of vegetables. The engines happily deliver their loads to market. But one day, mist and rain swirled down Toby's line. Percy was delivering a load of fresh tomatoes. Suddenly, he felt a big bump.
 * Percy: Bust my buffers!
 * Michael Brandon: Percy cried.
 * Percy: What was that?
 * Michael Brandon: The guard put out the warning flags, while Percy's driver inspected the tracks.
 * Percy's Driver: The earth's crumbling.
 * Michael Brandon: He said.
 * Percy: We must tell Sir Topham Hatt.
 * Michael Brandon: Decided Percy. Percy puffed back as fast as he could.
 * Percy: I've got important news! The tracks on Toby's line are wobbly!
 * Gordon: Ha!
 * Michael Brandon: Huffed Gordon.
 * Gordon: Old and wobbly, just like Toby. That's not news. Can't stop to listen to your silly chatter.
 * Percy: Gordon never listens to me.
 * Michael Brandon: Muttered Percy. Next he spoke to Sir Topham Hatt.
 * Percy: Sir! Sir!
 * Sir Topham Hatt: Not now, Percy. Thomas, you have to collect a prize bull. He's at the farm on Toby's line.
 * Thomas: Yes, sir.
 * Percy: But those tracks are wobbly!
 * Michael Brandon: Cried Percy.
 * Sir Topham Hatt: They are safe enough.
 * Michael Brandon: Said Sir Topham Hatt.
 * Thomas: Bye, Percy.
 * Percy: Nobody ever listens to me.
 * Michael Brandon: Thomas was carefully chuffing through the rain. Soon, he had collected the farmer's bull and was on his way back. The rain had made the tracks more wobbly than ever. Suddenly, there was a deep rumbling sound. Thomas' driver applied the brakes, but it was too late!
 * Thomas: Cinders and ashes!
 * Michael Brandon: Cried Thomas.
 * Thomas: We're stuck!
 * Michael Brandon: And they were. Late that night, Thomas still hadn't returned. Percy was worried.
 * Percy: Thomas is in trouble.
 * Michael Brandon: He said. Gordon and James took no notice.
 * Gordon: Worry wheels!
 * Michael Brandon: Huffed Gordon.
 * James: Fussy funnel!
 * Michael Brandon: Said James.
 * Percy: Please?
 * Michael Brandon: Percy asked his driver.
 * Percy: Can we find Thomas?
 * Percy's Driver: Right away.
 * Michael Brandon: Said his driver. Percy was nervous, but his lamp shone brightly in the dark. The tracks creaked and wobbled, but Percy pressed on.
 * Thomas: Percy!
 * Michael Brandon: Cried Thomas. Thomas was happy to see his friend.
 * Percy: I'll have you out of there in no time.
 * Michael Brandon: Said Percy. Percy puffed and pulled and pulled and puffed and finally Thomas and his driver were free.
 * Thomas: Oh, thank you.
 * Michael Brandon: Said Thomas.
 * Percy: I'm glad to be useful.
 * Michael Brandon: Smiled Percy. It was dawn before the track was cleared. Then Percy and Thomas made their way back home.
 * Percy: Thomas is here!
 * Michael Brandon: Whistled Percy.
 * Thomas: Percy saved the day!
 * Michael Brandon: Said Thomas.
 * Bull: Hmm!
 * Michael Brandon: Agreed the bull.
 * Sir Topham Hatt: I'm sorry, Percy.
 * Michael Brandon: Said Sir Topham Hatt.
 * Sir Topham Hatt: We must do a better job of listening to you in future.
 * Michael Brandon: Percy was pleased.
 * (Another passing by sequence occurs and we begin Percy's Seaside Trip)
 * (Rooster crows)
 * Children: (singing) The sun is shining, it's a lovely day. It won't be long before we're on our way. The guard is waiting, flag in hand. He blows his whistle, we're off to sea and sand. The sky is blue, there's not a cloud in sight, So much excitement, didn't sleep all night. Now Percy's rushing trough the countryside, With people waving as we (peep peep) whistle by. Seaside, we're off to the seaside. Ice cream in cones, Candy floss on your nose. Seaside, we're off to the seaside, We're gonna have a lovely day. Just one more hill to climb and we'll be there. Sounds of the seaside start to fill the air. Then someone shouts out excitedly.
 * Girl: "Look over there, everybody, I can see the sea!"
 * Children: (singing) Seaside, we're off to the seaside, Buckets and spades, all the fairground arcades. Seaside, we're off to the seaside, We're gonna have a lovely day. And when it's cold in wintertime, Still you can be there any time. Just close your eyes, count 1-2-3, Dream your dream and once again be by the sea. Sir Topham Hatt arrives to greet the train. He is so pleased that Percy's right on time. So much excitement, so much glee. We're all together with Percy by the sea. Seaside, we're all at the seaside, Building sandcastles with buckets and spades. Seaside, we're all at the seaside. Oh, what a lovely, lovely, day. Seaside, we're all at the seaside, Picnics and paddling, swimming all day. Seaside, we're all at the seaside, Oh, what a lovely, lovely day. Thank you, Percy, for such a lovely day.
 * (Children cheering)
 * (Another passing by sequence occurs and we begin Rheneas and The Roller Coaster)
 * Michael Brandon: Rheneas is a brave little engine who enjoys working in the mountains on the Island of Sodor. Even though he is little, Rheneas loves feeling like a really useful engine. One day, Sir Topham Hatt came to see Rheneas.
 * Sir Topham Hatt: I have a very important job to do.
 * Michael Brandon: He boomed.
 * Rheneas: An important job!
 * Michael Brandon: Cried Rheneas.
 * Rheneas: Oh, thank you sir.
 * Sir Topham Hatt: You are to take some school children up into the mountains. You must make sure they have a wonderful time and are back in time for their lunch.
 * Rheneas: Yes, sir.
 * Michael Brandon: Said Rheneas. But he was worried. He wasn't sure he was good enough to make the trip special. When Rheneas arrived at the station, the children and the teacher were waiting on the platform.
 * Rheneas: How am I going to make the children's day really special?
 * Michael Brandon: He said to Rusty.
 * Rusty: You know the mountains better than any engine.
 * Michael Brandon: Said Rusty. But Rheneas wasn't sure his best will be exciting enough. He felt like a very little engine indeed. Sir Topham Hatt had told Rheneas' driver to point out all the beautiful sights along the way.
 * Rheneas' Driver: This is Sodor Castle.
 * Michael Brandon: Called his driver.
 * Rheneas' Driver: It is very special and important.
 * Michael Brandon: Rheneas saw the castle everyday. He didn't think it was special or important.
 * Rheneas: I must think of something exciting to do.
 * Michael Brandon: He thought to himself.
 * Rheneas' Driver: This is the valley view.
 * Michael Brandon: Said his driver.
 * Rheneas' Driver: And here's the viaduct.
 * Children: (gasp)
 * Michael Brandon: Rheneas was still unhappy. The trip didn't seem wonderful to him at all.
 * Rheneas: Must be special, must be special.
 * Michael Brandon: He puffed. Meanwhile, Rusty was working on the rocky ridge line. Heavy rains have washed the ground from under the tracks.
 * Foreman: These lines are too bumpy and uneven.
 * Michael Brandon: Said the foreman.
 * Foreman: The tracks must be closed for repairs.
 * Rheneas: Must be special, must be special.
 * Michael Brandon: Rheneas was still trying to think of something that will make the children's trip special. He didn't know the linesmen have forgotten to switch the points. Suddenly, Rheneas was on the wrong track.
 * Rheneas: Oh no! This line is closed for repairs. Bust my buffers!
 * Michael Brandon: Chuffed Rheneas.
 * Rusty: Be careful!
 * Michael Brandon: Cried Rusty.
 * Rusty: The tracks are very bumpy!
 * Michael Brandon: Rheneas whooshed down the mountain like a roller coaster. The children cheered. Rheneas puffed up the rocky ridge with all his might. His carriage clattered and bumped and bounced along behind. And the children oooed and aaaed. Rheneas huffed and puffed as hard as he could. He steamed across the trestle bridge. He was going so fast the teacher nearly lost her hat. Rheneas splashed under a waterfall, the children laughed happily and the teacher covered her eyes. At last, they could see the station. Rheneas was very tired and worried. What would Sir Topham Hatt say?
 * Teacher: Phew!
 * Michael Brandon: Said the teacher.
 * Teacher: Just in time for lunch.
 * Children: It was the best school trip ever!
 * Michael Brandon: Cried the children. Sir Topham Hatt wasn't cross with Rheneas; he was happy too.
 * Sir Topham Hatt: You gave the children a wonderful trip. You really are a very useful engine.
 * Rheneas: Oh, thank you sir!
 * Michael Brandon: Puffed Rheneas proudly. Rheneas didn't feel like a little engine anymore.
 * (Another passing by sequence occurs and we begin Troublesome Trucks)
 * Children: (singing) The engines always think they are so clever, And so they like to bump the trucks around, They bump them in the sidings, they bump the in the yards. They better beware, they better take care, They better be on their guards. Because those Troublesome Trucks will get the engines every time. Troublesome Trucks will run the engines off the line. They push them here, push them there till they go too fast. Then they push them once again laughing while they crash. Troublesome Trucks will get the engines every time. Troublesome Trucks will run the engines off the line. They don't care how big they are to them it's just a game, Those Troublesome Trucks will get them all the same. Diesel thinks he is so very smart, Bumping all the trucks around the yard. He gets them all in line, then bumps them one more time, Now, he thinks that he's in charge. The trucks decide to play another joke, And Diesel's plans will all go up in smoke. He pulls and he pulls until he breaks the chain. On, on, on! He's off the rails again! Because those Troublesome Trucks will get the engines every time. Troublesome Trucks will run the engines off the line. They push them here, push them there till they go too fast. Then they push them once again laughing while they crash. Troublesome Trucks will get the engines every time. Troublesome Trucks will run the engines off the line. They don't care how big they are to them it's just a game. Those Troublesome Trucks will get them all the same. The engines all try hard to make this stand, Looking for a way to foil their plans. Nothing seems to work. It's just makes matters worse. Trucks are always on the hand. They find their time until they get their chance when noone is expecting it they pounce. They push and they push until it's all too late. On, on, on! The trucks have won again! Because those Troublesome Trucks will get the engines every time. Troublesome Trucks will run the engines off the line. They push them here, push them there till they go too fast. Then they push them once again laughing while they crash. Troublesome Trucks will get the engines every time. Troublesome Trucks will run the engines off the line. They don't care how big they are to them it's just a game. Those Troublesome Trucks will get them all the same. They don't care how big they are to them it's just a game. Those Troublesome Trucks will get them all the same.

 * Michael Brandon: It was Christmas time on the Island of Sodor. And Sir Topham Hatt's engines were busy. The snow made their journeys difficult. They had to work hard to deliver passengers and goods to their destinations of time. This made the engines feel very reliable. Elizabeth pulled into the fitters yard with Thomas' snowplow.
 * Thomas: I don't need that silly old thing.
 * Michael Brandon: Huffed Thomas.
 * Elizabeth: Stuff and nonsense.
 * Michael Brandon: Steamed Elizabeth.
 * Elizabeth: You can't be a reliable engine if you can't get through the snow.
 * Michael Brandon: That made Thomas cross.
 * Thomas: You know I'm reliable. I just don't like my snowplow. Elizabeth is rude.
 * Michael Brandon: Thomas chuffed.
 * Thomas: And this snowplow makes my buffers ache.
 * Michael Brandon: Later, Thomas saw Sir Topham Hatt talking to Elizabeth.
 * Sir Topham Hatt: The Sodor Cake Factory is snowed in. Their Christmas cakes must get to the docks before the ship sails for the mainland.
 * Thomas: Let me do the job.
 * Sir Topham Hatt: I need you on your line, Thomas. Besides, Elizabeth knows those roads well. She's very reliable.
 * Thomas: I'm reliable too.
 * Michael Brandon: Huffed Thomas.
 * Elizabeth: Apparently not reliable enough.
 * Michael Brandon: Elizabeth chuffed. Now Thomas was crosser still. The snow was heavy, but Thomas arrived at every station right on time. Elizabeth was struggling to stay on the road. Her wheels did not like the slippery ice at all. When Thomas arrived at the docks to pick up Terence, he was surprised that Elizabeth had not returned.
 * Dock Manager: The ship will miss the tide.
 * Michael Brandon: Said the dock manager.
 * Sir Topham Hatt: And the children won't have their Christmas cakes. Thomas, go and look for Elizabeth at once.
 * Thomas: Yes sir.
 * Michael Brandon: Answered Thomas.
 * Thomas: Perhaps Elizabeth isn't so reliable after all.
 * Michael Brandon: He whispered. At the cake factory, Elizabeth was piled high with crates of Christmas cakes.
 * Elizabeth: Sir Topham Hatt's counting on me. I mustn't be late.
 * Michael Brandon: She chuffed onto the icy road. Suddenly, she was on a steep hill. Her drive applied the brakes. Elizabeth slid out of control into a deep snowdrift. Poor Elizabeth. Thomas and Terence puffed through the swirling snow. They couldn't see Elizabeth anywhere. Soon, they spotted her driver. He was standing by the level crossing.
 * Elizabeth's Driver: Elizabeth is stuck under the snow.
 * Michael Brandon: Her driver explained.
 * Elizabeth's Driver: I need help to dig her out.
 * Michael Brandon: Terence rescued her in no time.
 * Thomas: We'll have to hurry.
 * Michael Brandon: Said Thomas.
 * Thomas: It wasn't you fault, Elizabeth, it's the slippery roads.
 * Michael Brandon: Elizabeth felt much better. Thomas chuffed and puffed as fast as he could. They reached the docks just in time. Sir Topham Hatt was delighted to see the bakery crates and that Elizabeth was safe and well.
 * Sir Topham Hatt: We'll get you unloaded immediately.
 * Thomas: Now the children will have their Christmas cakes.
 * Michael Brandon: Said Thomas.
 * Sir Topham Hatt: Well done.
 * Michael Brandon: Said Sir Topham Hatt.
 * Elizabeth: Oh, thank you, Thomas.
 * Michael Brandon: Said Elizabeth.
 * Elizabeth: You and I are both reliable.
 * Michael Brandon: Thomas agreed.
 * (Another passing by sequence occurs and we begin Winter Wonderland)
 * Children: This is the story of Thomas' winter wonderland.
 * Girl: (singing) It's a winter wonderland See the snow lay all around.
 * Children: (singing) Bells are ringing; Ding-a-ling-a-ling, Ding, dong Sleigh bells jingle Home for the holiday we go Rushing to our winter wonderland It's a winter wonderland Little engine working hard. His snowplow heaving; Chug-a-chug-a-chug, Chug Choo.
 * Girl: Bother this silly snow!
 * Children: (singing) Don't haul be up, please don't delay Must get to my winter wonderland It's Thomas' winter wonderland Climb aboard and join us if you can See main line engines rushing to and fro Festive decorations, people rushing home Branch line engines shovel through the snow Firesides glaze through winter haze Happy holidays.
 * Girl: Look, everybody! Here's Thomas. And Percy. And James and Gordon and Henry.
 * Children: And look! Edward and Toby, too. (singing) Home for the holiday we go Rushing to our winter wonderland It's Thomas' winter wonderland Climb aboard and join us if you can See Terence Tractor clear away the snow Bertie Bus is wonderful; Just look at him go Seasons greetings; Happy Holidays Close your eyes, dream your dreams See how the magic stays It's a winter wonderland See the snow lay all around Bells are ringing; Ding-a-ling-a-ling, Ding, dong Children singing Home for the holiday we go Rushing to our winter wonderland Our winter wonderland Our winter wonderland.
