Transcript

  • George Carlin: That night, when the other engines are tucked away in their sheds, you can still hear a faraway call of an engine's whistle, and a clickity-clack a train wheel's turning. This is the sound of a mail train. 1 train is pulled by Thomas, and the other by Percy, as the loads are too heavy for 1 engine to do the work alone. The mail is loaded into freight cars at the harbour and the engines pull their trains through the silent stations delivering their precious loads. One a clear night, a big shiny moon brightens their journey, but often Thomas and Percy can even see the stars. But whenever the weather, lamps along the track always light their way. One night, Percy was waiting at the junction. The main line train was late. At last, Henry arrived.
  • Henry: Sorry.
  • George Carlin: He puffed.
  • Henry: The mail boat from the main line was delayed.
  • Percy's Driver: Come on, Percy.
  • George Carlin: Said his driver.
  • Percy's Driver: Let's makeup for lost time.
  • George Carlin: Percy hurried along as quickly as he could. But the sun was already rising as he finish his work.
  • Percy: Never mind.
  • George Carlin: Thought Percy.
  • Percy: It's nice be up in about, when it's the start of a new day and there's no one else around.
  • George Carlin: Percy was not alone for long.
  • Percy: Bother!
  • George Carlin: Thought Percy.
  • Percy: It's that dizzy-thing Harold.
  • Harold: Good morning.
  • George Carlin: Whirled Harold.
  • Harold: I only said railways were out of date, but you're so slow with the mail. You should give everyone their stamps back.
  • George Carlin: Percy was too tired to explain.
  • Percy: Birdbrain.
  • George Carlin: He muttered.
  • Duck: Good morning, Percy.
  • George Carlin: Called Duck.
  • Duck: You're up early this morning.
  • Percy: No, you're wrong.
  • George Carlin: Sighed Percy.
  • Percy: I'm back, tired and late.
  • George Carlin: He rolled up to the shed and fell asleep, almost before his buffers touched the bar. He driver decided to set off early that evening. Thomas was waiting at the station.
  • Thomas: Thank goodness I have a chance to speak to you. Driver says the person in charge of the mail has complained to Sir Topham Hatt about the delay last night.
  • Percy: But that wasn't my fault.
  • George Carlin: Replied Percy.
  • Thomas: I know.
  • George Carlin: Said Thomas.
  • Thomas: And so does Sir Topham Hatt, but this mail person wouldn't listen. Tonight, we'll just have to be quicker than ever before.
  • George Carlin: The engines were just leaving when they heard a familiar buzzing.
  • Harold: I say, you 2, there's news flying about.
  • Percy: Where?
  • George Carlin: Puffed Percy crossly.
  • Harold: All other the place. They're going to scrap the mail train and use me instead. Wings work wonders you know. Always.
  • Thomas: Rubbish.
  • George Carlin: Huffed Thomas. That night, everything ran like clockwork. Thomas and Percy steamed through the stations making good time everywhere they went. At a station, Thomas notice the man looking cold and worried. He had missed his train home.
  • Thomas' Driver: We can give you a ride.
  • George Carlin: Said Thomas' driver.
  • Thomas' Driver: But it'll be rather uncomfortable.
  • Man: Thank you.
  • George Carlin: Said the man.
  • Man: Anything's better than sitting here.
  • George Carlin: The next afternoon, Percy past the airfield and saw Harold.
  • Percy: Hello, lazywings. Are you too tired to fly today?
  • Harold: The wings are too strong.
  • George Carlin: Grumbled Harold.
  • Harold: I've been grounded.
  • Percy: You need rails.
  • George Carlin: Laughed Percy.
  • Percy: They work wonders you know. Always.
  • George Carlin: That night, Sir Topham Hatt show the 2 engines a letter. It was from the man who missed his train.
  • Sir Topham Hatt: He thinks you are both splendid, and everyone says that the mail train is the pride of the line.
